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.

Chris Evans faces police probe over ‘sexual assault’
Beeb face dilemma over whether to take Evans off Radio 2 breakfast show with motor show future already under scrutiny
The Sun

TOP Gear presenter Chris Evans is to become the most high-profile BBC star to be quizzed by police over historical sex assault allegations. Met officers will speak to the multi-millionaire BBC star, 50, in the coming days after a complaint from a former work colleague, website Heat Street report.
Beeb bosses now face a dilemma over whether Evans, 50, continues on his Radio 2 breakfast show. A BBC spokeswoman declined to comment while Evans’s representatives were unavailable to comment.
The cop quiz comes after a woman who worked with Evans in the 1990s told The Sun on Sunday earlier this year how the star flashed at her almost every day for two years.
She said he exposed himself to people who did not do what he wanted. She added: “He might have thought what he was doing was amusing, but like a lot of bullies he cloaked it in a joke. Bullies make out that you’re not being fun if you’re not being part of that joke. I have no idea if he was getting some gratification out of this, but he used to get his penis out every time I saw him. He’d either just get it out, or he’d walk into a room naked."
“Sometimes it was erect, sometimes it wasn’t. I know other people experience the same thing at work but this was quite extreme because of the relentlessness of it, almost every day for two years."
Speaking in May she claimed he grabbed her breasts and bullied her after she rejected his advances. She claimed her complaints were ignored and the ordeal left her traumatised and on anti- depressants. She insisted she was speaking out to protect others at risk of being harassed by him.

A convicted Somalian rapist who overturned a deportation order went on to rape two more women in Birmingham, with his lawyer arguing "he had a lack of understanding of what is acceptable in the UK".
Dahir Ibrahim, 31, was sentenced to ten years in prison in 2005 after the first sex attack on a prostitute in Edgbaston.
A judge ordered his deportation after he served his sentence, but he appealed - and was given leave to remain in the UK.
Now Ibrahim, of Handsworth, has been jailed for another 10 years after raping two "vulnerable" women within six weeks of each other in 2014.
It was more opportunistic then pre-planned. No long-term physical injury was sustained by the victims. - Jabeen Akhtar, defending.
Who sits on these immigration panels and are they made accountable for their cock-ups?

"It was more opportunistic then pre-planned."
Thank frick for that, that should be comforting for the victims, and allay fear
of further mental turmoil.
But these victims have to realise that to have a successful open door
multi-cultural society these occurrences have to be tolerated and to except
that the perpetrators have rights too.

Dumbo,
Compared with the deliberate, or non-deliberate misleading Blair might be responsible for over the Iraq war, it would seem to me minimal compared with the Brexiters' "propaganda", "racism" and "false" information broadcasted before the referendum.
The long-term consequences of both parties actions may be similar.

By the way, I was against the "Up and at them brigade" and "we will show them" brigade who wanted to invade Iraq.
Also, never liked Blair, from even before he was PM, but at least he was an effective
PM.

Mininmal , so if I read this right you say it's acceptable for people to be killed in action , dubious action , but in your mind it's far worse than propaganda , racism and false info , which I think was minimal . But of course in your strange world where things are turned around to SUIT your anti British stance on anything . Some one correct me if I'm wrong .

So propaganda etc is far worse than people being killed in dubious action . Tell that to the wives , girlfriends , sons , daughters , friends .
