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.

And what had this poor wounded policeman done to upset the masked ISIS terrorists?

IMHO, these murdering bastards are committing their atrocious murdering acts
falsely under the umbrella of their own crazy Islamic beliefs.
In other words, 'killing people in an atrocious manner' is the 'name of the game' and religion is just a false excuse for the doing of it.
Anyone else think the same?

VICTIM, it's very difficult to use our army to defend Britain right now because the terrorists are mostly unseen until they come out of hiding to murder. Our intelligence agencies seem to be a very good job at the moment in catching hidden cells of terrorists before they hit our streets, but for how much longer.

I suggest armed soldiers on the streets.
I suggest armed fighting vehicles and road blocks.
Armed installation at the roundabouts.
Gun ship helicopters overflying all roads.
And Cameron thumb on the Nuke.
That will show them we mean business as usual.

Actually, I once drove into a small French town on the Spanish border with the first three suggestions appearing in front of me, as I drove off an auto-route.
Thought at first I had wandered on to a movie scene, then realised it was for real and decided to move very slowly back in the direction of the auto-route.

The "force" didn't smile!

By the way the 82.8% figure for A&E in Wales comes from the BBC. It is clear that Labour cannot run the NHS.

Hays how do you mean, Threshers went into administration and 400 units were sold to small off licence chains..........muslims if I recall correctly.
I think the others were, about 1100 or thereabouts were leased back to landlords.
Quench owned the chain.
Dont forget I was in the retail business for M@S Woolys and Tesco.

My best friend drives an Ambulance, the amount of call outs she's called to every week due to obesity, depression, domestic violence and non-emergency is the real waste of the Ambulance service and knocks onto A&E...

My family sold it to Flowers in the later 1950s I think. Flowers were bought by Whitbread. The Threshers pubs were converted to Whitbread and the off licences left with the original brand. What you refer to was what Whitbread did with the chain.

No.
As suggest previous posting, may be a start. Find out who is financing them.
Increase alertness. Fortified UK is easier to protect, or inspect some of the comings and goings in the UK. Maybe of some use.
"Europe is more difficult to defend against such actions as appeared to occur in Paris, because of the extent of their borders"
But the real problem is to analyse the motivations and motivators and deal with those at source.
Terrorism breeds on the disgruntlement and disillusionment of the "masses", who "think" that there are not alternatives to the action they are taking.
(The instigators, or "leaders" may see the actions as justifiable to obtain their goals, or may be seen as psychopaths by "normal" standards.)
(IRA Ireland, Basques etc.)
It doesn't matter if their cause is justifiable to their victims, at an emotional level it is justifiable to the perpetrators of "said" terrorism or "guerrilla" actions.
That is the problems which one has to deal with, not simply the eradication of foot soldiers.

The most recent estimate of wastage in A&E is that in excess of 30% of A&E visitors should not be there.

if that appeals, suggestions please for casting from our friends here

54517 - true, but it also presupposes that there are local walk-in clinics or similar, some of which i think have been shut down ..... and before certain people start hopping about, those decisions may well be made at local level

Haze.
Which ones.
A parent who just notices and is worried by their child who has a slight temperature and a spotty rash, but seems a little different to normal.
Something, or nothing.
Tell me the difference between nothing and early treatable meningitis.
Next question is how you can help "carers" to tell the difference between trivia and consequential states.
Education, maybe a start.
But could a Haze really be educated more than he already is?

Perhaps, He could go to school with Manuel and watch the magic roundabout.
I wondered what the defect was in Napoleon's education.

sorry fred, but over and above the usual drunk oafs, there certainly are a great many "nonsense" patients who, if they had to put up say £20 at the door, might well think twice before going to A&E with a slight sprain or similar

fred's allusion to the magic roundabout refers back to my recent post 54518 which may entertain some
