Pointless - Party Political Conferences

This is something I should have included in yesterday's post - Autumn is the time for all the major British political parties to hold their annual conferences - and it's another reason for not liking Autumn! This week it's Labour, last week was the Lib-Dems and next week it'll be the Conservatives. It fills up the news media as if anyone actually cared - WE DON'T! These will be the last conferences before the next General Election which will probably be in May next year, but so far all we hear is the same old rubbish!
