Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

N,
We have disagreed about the UN a few times before.
But I would still like to to see the body reorganised and and the out of date "rules and regulations" changed.
It would be gainful to remove the power of the veto removed.
Imagine the uproar from USA, little Britain, Russia, and China.
I would like to see it with a "police" enforcement force, which can under the auspices of the UN capable of dealing militarily with situations such as Syria, Libya. Yugoslavia, etc.
The force should be independent of the whims of the "major" countries.
Beside its "peace" keeping role it could be utilised for dealing with major catastrophes.
I understand that the UN already functions to a degree in this manner, but think it valid to extend the role.
Impractical, maybe, but that usually means you don't know how to and can't be bothered to think about it.
Dan Dare could do it in the 50s, it is possible but difficult.

The Carrick as lain rotting away owing to apathy and lack of funds. Good luck to the Aussies who will restore it and look after it.

London riots: Man admits starting furniture store fire
A man has pleaded guilty to starting a fire which destroyed a 144-year-old furniture shop in south London during last summer's riots.
Gordon Thompson, 33, changed his plea during a trial at the Old Bailey.
The court had previously heard that Thompson told another man "it was me", as he walked away from the burning House of Reeves in Croydon on 8 August.
