    Is this some sort of Party Political statement Rick? As I cannot think of any other time that red jeans are a good idea on a dude. You live in Shoreditch don't you, that's the only place an idea like that would ever be considered good, the place should be leveled.

    The party I campaign for and am a member of isn't red :).

    And I live in Fulham, not Shoreditch.

    S'a good job I cycle because it's a PITA to get home when I go out in Shoreditch.
    What party do you campaign for?

    Fulham is just as bad as Shoredictch maybe even worse. Urgh...

    Should swap the red and the blue over.

    Then you have a proper flag.

    Have I told you how great the Netherlands is?

    And, for the record, my jeans are not skinny, - merely 'slim'.

    Skinny=no,no.

    Damn you and your slim thighs. Living in trendy Fulham and hanging out in trendier Shoreditch. You and yours are the soul reason why I can no longer walk into a mens shop and find a pair of jeans (and now shirts it seems) suited to my ample frame.

    I've always been a supporter of theirs but that was mainly pragmatism rather than idealism. Would be interesting to hear what the Lib Dem's game plan is WRT the coalition and afterwards. In another thread perhaps!

    Not just you, I'm pretty skinny but last pair of 32" jeans I tried on (Superdry, sorry :oops:) they only did silly girly sizes that wouldn't fit over my manly calves. Might just have to get a moo-moo

    I have never even walked into a Superdry. I saw my first Superdry shop at X-mas on the way to the comic shop in Croydon.

    But back to point, Rick, what are you going to wear with these red jeans?

    Well, with this annoying predictive advertising thingy system the advertisement at the bottom of this page is currently for these;

    Which I think would be perfect with the red jeans as nobody will recognise you. :-D

    Yeah they're not skinny jeans. I can't fit into skinny jeans.

    What will I wear with it?

    Few things - got a small white t-shirt with blue horizontal stripes which would work nicely.

    If I want to up the ante I'd wear that with my boat shoes (brown) and wayfarers.

    I'm groaning under the weight of stripy jumpers.

    When you think that the Conservative and LibDems originate from factions of the same party (Whigs), but that one ended up absorbing an offshoot of the Labour Party, it's not hard to see why there's some internal conflict. It's all a bit like the CofE really: how broad do you make the church before the members at either end of the spectrum start to fall out?

    Maybe Cardies are something you get into later: I've got a couple now.

    It's not that.

    It's the Lib Dems aren't good enough at politics when in government.

    Unsurprisingly, they get all focussed on governing and doing as best as they think they can for governance given the circumstances - and totally forget that they've got to get some votes come next election.
