He suggested we sat with certain people dependant on our skin colour and me being me had to stand up and say that was absolute nonsense. Thankfully he didn't have the same security at his labour conference in 2005 or I fear I woul've been dragged out of the room like poor walter wolfgang.

Labour are ridiculous and I dont know why people vote for them. I know working class cant afford the expensive education that most upper class tory voters can afford but they dont do the working class any justice by making us look like bumbling idiots. Who's behalf do they speak on exactly?

Did he provide any logical explanation why he wanted people to sit 'in order of colour'? How was he defining this? Did hair colour count? Did all the bue eyed blonds have to sit together? What about the green eyed red heads? Do they sit with the blue eyed blonds or the brown eyed brunettes? Oh but hang on a minute what about the blue eyed brunettes? Would it have meant my two daughters would have been segregated?

Yes I know I'm exaggerating the issue but it seems a pointless request unless there was some purpose for it.

I would love to respond to the last paragraph but I'm completely lost for words at the moment. Perhaps I'm just tired. It's been a tiring day.
