    This is barking.

    This is (as far as I can tell) the ONLY criminal compensation awards which don’t take alcohol into account.

    If you are blind drunk, get mugged cos you are incapable of standing, your award is reduced (should you get any) because of the condition YOU PLACED YOURSELF IN.

    “Drunk” doesnt jus happen, you make it happen.

    I was at Weston park yesterday for V- me, and thousands of others, crammed round the main stage for Miss Winehouse.

    She was due on about 6:05pm- her band came on about 6:20pm and the crowd cheered- after about 5 minutes, a few boos started when she still hadnt appeared- after about 10 mins slow handclapping and more booing- after about 15 mins of…[Read more]

    I proposed to the first Mrs Slayer in Skegness..what a feckin misake that was, not that I blame Skegness for it- must have been all the air went to my head.

    Was last there a couple of weeks ago but only for fish n chip tea by the sea.

  • Which is why “life” in prison should mean just that- you stay there til you die

    I would bring back capital punishment tomorrow BUT recognising the arguments against in terms of innocents etc then lock them up for life

    Life currently means (normally) 12 years which is both insulting and completely lacking any deterrent

  • I seem to remember a state some while back which was suppressing one section of its community in an area called Kosovo- the West didnt like it and felt the need to step in with bombs etc.

    That state was Serbia, of which Russia is an historical as well as recent ally- as Georgia was suppressing ethnic Russians in South Ossetia- what is the…[Read more]

  • Did I know all “what” two weeks?

    That South Ossetia was a disputed region of Georgia..er, yes but then again I like and enjoy politics the world over and have followed the Soviet meltdown since the 90’s.

    But more to the point, I have a point of view…just like anyone else on here n one of the great things I like about JC is the opportunity to…[Read more]

    Reading the local paper yesterday, and a man who was convicted for breaking into someone’s house claims that it was THEIR FAULT as they had left their window open!

    It’s like being caught shoplifting at Tesco’s and claiming that it’s Tesco’s fault as they shouldn’t have put the stuff out on the shelf.

    On a serious note though,…

  • But what difference does that make?

    The idea of self government down to a micro level takes us almost back to the medieval age with each town or county being governed by a sherriff and the country being a cobbled together alliance of barons and lords rather than a cohesive melting pot of all and sundry.

    South Ossetia has never been a country,…[Read more]

    In one repect, the Russian action is justifiable insofar as the Georgians picked this fight by enforcing their right to govern Ossetia despite the large Russian population. The Russians, however, in moving to protect their citizens, have as ever, used a 20 lb hammer to crack a nut.

    Virtually ALL of Europes gas supply from Russia travels through Georgia- just when you thought it couldnt get any worse

    I hear this sort of thing all the time, though. People are always saying, ‘Well, what if I wanted to build a church in their country? Eh? Eh? They wouldn’t like like that, would they? Eh? Eh?’ and so on.

  • Maybe miscarriages of justice work both ways?

    Maybe the police know what happened (not everything can be presented in court)

    Who knows but normally when this occurs and the police use these words it means they believe he really did do it and there is no benefit in reopening the file

    Let’s face it, Emma, England’s dead. Dead.

    I went to Croydon on Sunday, and I was the only English person there.

    I wasn’t allowed into a Wetherspoons there because my St. George badge was found to be “offensive” by the Russian.. perhaps Polish or Czech (all same to me) doorman.. (then why is he in England if he finds it offensive?…

    Nutters voted for our MP’s. Nutters vote for policy which try’s to accomodate different people.

  • I so like to see threads where the facts get in the way of a good story.

    The suggestion that we shouldn’t use the word “chav” is from a left wing think tank- NOT government policy, NOT in a government bill, NOT even a government proposal, NOT about to cost anyone £13 million
