    • The serious ones may be better than legislation from a government with a strong majority because they have to gather cross party support rather than rely on MPs being unthinkingly obedient to the party line and the government whips.

      It’s just a theory.

    • Global warming started well before the Millenials came on the scene. We’ve all been dealing with global warming for decades. The Millenials aren’t exactly doing anything about through their actions either.


      @sam
      That’s a poorly informed view. Do you have Millenial children? My son is a research chemist who’s developing a green production process for methanol, my daughter is filming a documentary on pollution and her boyfriend is training to be an environmental lawyer. What have you done to change the world?

    • They are in France. A perfectly fine country.

      Fine unless for example they speak English and have an established family in the UK. Is it better for anyone to have someone live a poor, excluded, disconnected and ultimately vulnerable life in France when they could be connected and productive in the UK? Europe’s asylum systems are a mess, it’s totally unacceptable to leave the Eastern fringes carrying the burden because the western states happen to have a buffer one side and a sea border the other (or a moat as for UK and Eire).

    • While some royal mail employees are useless they aren’t even in the same league of crapness as Hermes IMO, how can you have a delivery system without a sorting office where people can collect undelivered parcels? they don’t provide any useful tracking info the ones I’ve had the misfortune of dealing with don’t leave any contact details to arrange redelivery, in some cases there’s been nothing at all written on the delivery slip.

    • There are other medications you can take for Type 2, so even if it turns out that you do need tablets now, it doesnt need to mean the end of driving.

    • This is totally a resources issue.

      Cobblers – jobs should be done properly, particularly when someone’s liberty is at issue.

    • It has never been the police’s job to find evidence of guilt, and always to be objective


      @tom
      their job is that, true.

      But how many PC’s only log evidence that supports a possible conviction, and ignore anything that doesn’t?

      It could well be that this sort of thing is going on across the board, and it’s only when the alleged perpetrator is facing many years in prison that their legal team starts checking and chasing up matters that “may have been overlooked”.

      How many times has a PC’s word that “there was nothing there” been accepted unchallenged in court when a defendant has claimed something? Such as in this matter; say when driving, claiming a pedestrian walked straight out without looking, and was on the phone – PC says phone was examined and it wasn’t in use.
