Bullying occurrences in independent day and boarding schools is now so well publicised, and the kids so well up on what to do if it happens, that it has now virtually been completely stamped out.

Just Google 'bullying' and see what you get.

Kd Power (Anti) Bullying Skills

You will also find out, that most bullying these days is to do with the workplace rather than school.

Upper Class Public School Kids, Dressed Down At the Weekends Ready For Trouble At A Millwall Football Match.............A source commented these rich kids are so well up on the dirty tactis of bullying.

That looks like Ed Balls-up on the far right (he can't even get that correct), and that little chap at the back looking insignificant, is that Milli-pede, (no change there then)
Of course the person in the window has got their measure, it looks like Bo-Jo.

Ex-UKIP MEP charged

"Westworld" to be re-created for a TV series.

Should be good, eh?

http://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2014/jul/23/westworld-hbo-anthony-hopkins-evan-rachel-wood-remake

Westworld, set in the near future, imagines a theme park that recreates the Wild West, complete with artificially intelligent cowboys that visitors can shoot and kill, as well as pliant robots who agree to sexual encounters. A malfunction spreads through the robots, causing them to turn violently against the park's human visitors – with a robot gunslinger played by Yul Brynner most lethal of all. Released in 1973, it was directed by Michael Crichton, and was an early adopter of CGI.

Now HBO is expanding the action into a long-form TV series, a "dark odyssey about the dawn of artificial consciousness and the future of sin", according to the Hollywood Reporter. Hopkins will play the "brilliant, taciturn and complicated creative director" of the park, while Wood will play an android farmer girl "who is about to discover that her entire idyllic existence is an elaborately constructed lie."

Softening the Electorate up imo.

Interest rates will rise but to a lower level than before, Mark Carney says
Mark Carney, the Governor of the Bank of England, says interest rates will rise but not to past levels


By Steven Swinford, Senior Political Correspondent1:40PM BST 23 Jul 2014

Interest rates will rise but at a more "gradual and limited" rate than in the past, the Governor of the Bank of England has said.
The increase to more “normal” levels will be welcomed by many savers who have faced record low rates for more than six years, but is likely to plunge many borrowers into financial difficulty.
Mr Carney said that the rise in interest rates is likely to be lower than in the past because of the "headwinds" still facing the economy.


Asked if the interest rate will be around 2.5 per cent, Mr Carney said it will be "less than normal".
He said that historically low interest rates pose a threat to the housing market, which has the potential to 'tip the economy' into recession as people reduce spending to meet their mortgage payments.
Speaking at the Commonwealth Games Business Conference in Glasgow, Mr Carney said: "As the economy normalises, the Bank Rate will need to rise in order to achieve the inflation target.
"The Monetary Policy Committee is supporting investment through clear guidance that it expects increases in the Bank Rate, once they begin, to be gradual and limited.
"This is in part because the headwinds facing the economy are likiely to take some time to die down. These headwinds include public balance sheet repair, a highly indebted private sector as well as the drag from a 12 per cent appreciation of sterling over the past year."
He said that the housing market poses a threat to "everyone from Land's End to John O'Groats, including those that do not own their homes.
He said: "History shows that British people do everything they can to pay their mortgages. That means cutting back deeply on expenditures when the unexpected happens. If a lot of people are highly indebted, that could tip the economy back into recession."
Mr Carney said that after the longest and deepest downturn since the Second World War, the UK was finally returning to full growth.
