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.

He has still got a long way to beat you as GOBSHITE OF THE YEAR (recurring) Freddie Boy !!!!

Not before time :- Car insurance market referred to Competition Commission

The market for car insurance has been referred to the Competition Commission for investigation on the basis that it is not working well for motorists.

The Office of Fair Trading (OFT) made the referral because it was worried the structure of the market was making costs and premiums unnecessarily high.

It found that insurers of "at-fault" drivers had no control over the amount spent on repairs or replacement vehicles by "not-at-fault" drivers.

The Commission has two years to report.

As you say, about time.
Crooked lot of barstewerds.

Mind you its pathetic that it will take 2 years (and some).
This could be sorted within 6 months!

Gives the Boys and a few Girls maybe, 2 years of earnings remember G/M.

yesterday BOE tell banks to hold more cash .
you can not make it up.
libs then say banks lent out money nilly willy .

Plastic debris reaches Southern Ocean, previously thought to be pristine

The first traces of plastic debris have been found in what was thought to be the pristine environment of the Southern Ocean, according to a study released in London by the French scientific research vessel Tara.

The finding comes following a two-and-a-half-year, 70,000-mile voyage by the schooner across the Atlantic, Pacific, Antarctic and Indian Oceans, to investigate marine ecosystems and biodiversity under climate change.

Missing teenager Megan Stammers is found in France

Missing teenager Megan Stammers has been found in France, according to Sussex Police.

She was found with teacher Jeremy Forrest on Friday at 12:15 BST. Mr Forrest was arrested and Megan has been taken into protection, said police.

The information which led to them being located came as a direct result of media coverage in France, Sussex Police said.

How long is he going to get? Perhaps a couple of months, and then reemployed to do the same!!?

He's now scheduled for quite a lot of incarceration, I would think.

He could get 5 yrs in the slammer. I guess his marriage is also over. No more teaching maths (unless they let him do it in jail) and an entry in the sex offenders list sounds like a certainty too.

Despite him being apportioned ALL of the blame, I wonder who made all the running with this relationship. Once they have grown their equipment, young ladies often want to start using it. Some of them can be extremely provocative and persistent too.

So, do you mean it is natural for ladies to exercise their right, and the guy was probably under pressure.

She has many tattoos, too early for this age!!! I don't like it anyway.

''Once they have grown their equipment, young ladies often want to start using it. Some of them can be extremely provocative and persistent too''.

Can't say I encountered problems like that. So where the bloody hell was I.

ahoj
She probably didn't have them done for you. Ha! Ha!
2517

Yep, agreed.
By natural, I meant the majority of girls approve it, not you, Ha Ha!

She may used this to become a celebrity. Sell stories to newspapers, etc....
If that's the case, she wasted public sector money and should be punished too. Wasted police time to look for her around the world.

why do you posters think they have done anything wrong .
all men are not like that some are de scent people .

Both would appear naive and behaved daftly.

If they has waited until her 16 the birthday, the age difference would have been the same.

The affair probably wouldn't have made the headlines.

What a horrendous crime!!!!!!!!!!!!1


I would prefer in this case from superficial information to consider it "stupid".

A case of "Short of News Week".

Can see the media once again are behaving like vultures and scavengers with a piece of "meat".

Interesting to what the Leveson findings will be.

The media likes negative news and most people just read and accept. They do not think the media may misrepresent or manipulate stories for the sake of business only.

That's why you see Youtube, Facebook and Google are becoming more popular and better source of information.

The finances of a senior Labour MP were subject to a secret police investigation which uncovered hundreds of thousands of pounds in mystery bank accounts, it was reported today.


Keith Vaz, a minister in the Labour government, had almost £500,000 deposited in accounts between 1997 and 2001.


A Scotland Yard probe found 'significant amounts of cash' which was said to have been of a ‘suspicious nature’, the Daily Telegraph reported.


Mr Vaz denies any wrongdoing. He chairs the powerful home affairs select committee which holds the police to account, and has seen him make headlines for inquiries in border controls, drug policy and G4S’s failings in the run-up to the Olympics.

Also, can we see Bank transfers between family members and trusts of the present members of the cabinet over the last 20 years.


Should be interesting reading.
