I quite like him. I appreciate he's not everyone's cup of tea, but I much prefer Murray to bland sportsmen like Michael Owen et al who have been media trained to the point where they can be guaranteed to give the same kind of bland post-match interview packed with non-committal answers every time.

That said, if Cristina Kirchner offered, I'd still say yes.

And Roy 'Chubby' Brown - saved in my book due to involvement with TLOG.

It's that fist-pumping thing that Murray and all other tennis players seem to do whenever they win a point. Lordy, it's annoying. Henman used to do it all the time.

I like Murray too I think the guys come on alot as a player very McEnroe esque in his playing which is different to the 3 above him.

I like Murray as well. It's nice to see a sportsman who doesn't seem to care what the media think of him.

Henman, on the other hand, was perfectly summed up by the late Linda Smith, who described him as "The human form of beige."

I'd like to vote in favour of Andy Murray too.

Credit to the tall skinny lad of 17 for sticking with it and making the world's top 4.

Ben Gummer, Conservative MP for Ipswich. You can tell he's a twunt well before he opens his mouth and confirms it.

The Guardian article where that picture is featured - http://www.guardian.co.uk/law/2011/jun/ ... s-concerns - does a brilliant demolition job. This passage is particularly revealing:

Quote:

Unlike soldiers, nurses and teachers, who are subject to a two-year pay freeze, these courageous lawyers need more cash," said Gummer. Lawyers are easy prey when it comes to politics and these tactics are cheap. No representative body for the profession, including the Law Society and Bar Council, has argued for more money.

Gummer acknowledged that "most family barristers and solicitors are passionate about what they do and many are paid modestly." The Family Advocacy Scheme, implemented last month, introduces cuts of 12.5% and we now know that family lawyers will receive a further 10% cut in October. A pay freeze would be met with cheers by my colleagues.

Not only that, but legal aid hourly rates haven't been raised for 15 years. The army would be a dead duck if they had frozen soldiers' pay for that long.

To be fair to Gummer he's a strong supporter of prison reform (of the sensible type, not the kind of prison reform most Tories would like) and he supports gay marriage as well.

His father on the other hand, definitely deserves to be on this list.

Is he the sibling that wasn't used to test CJD burgers?
