His leader may be beleaguered and his party staggering through a third term in government with a stricken economy, but one backbench MP still felt able to tell a voter where he could “stick” his vote. Labour’s fight to regain the support of the electorate took a less conventional turn this week as David Clelland began an epistolary battle with one dissatisfied voter. Mr Clelland, who has represented the people of Tyne Bridge in Newcastle for 23 years, has written to one resident informing him that he had no desire for his vote in the future. “I accept your offer not to vote for me again,” he wrote, in bold defiance of the usual conventions that exist in commun…

How only one in 20 Brits score top marks in tests designed for seven-year-olds By Sarah Harris Last updated at 3:35 AM on 30th June 2008 Comments (18) Add to My Stories The questions, you might think, are child's play.

LMAO.... i thought this was funny. SYDNEY (Reuters) - A man who put his life up for auction on eBay found it wasn't worth quite as much as he thought when he settled for around A$100,000 ($96,000) less than his target price.

Bids had reached as high as A$2.2 million, only for Usher to discover there had been a glitch on eBay's system which allowed the participation of non-registered bidders who had put in bogus offers.
