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.

must have been quite serious, and if so, there is (rarely) any difference in the quality of care or capability of consultant whether NHS or private

labour party shambles
i note that this fellow smith is adopting a fistful of corbyn's radical proposals in an attempt to woo the new militants who have just joined up
heaven help us all even if even half were ever enacted, as we'ld then be back in the dark days when the militant unions pretty much ran the country and there was no incentive to create wealth or to better oneself

Forward to the past comrades!
We can laugh, but it's serious...no effective opposition to the tories. Not good!

The court case brought by a Labour donor on whether Corbyn should
be put on leadership list, which started the other day is expected to
deliver their verdict today.

Judge decided that Corbyn can stay on ballot. That's good news. We can now have the entertainment of Labour tearing itself apart.
The case may be appealed

Supreme Court blocks SNP's controversial 'named person' scheme
By Auslan Cramb, Scottish Correspondent
28 July 2016 • 12:12pm
The Scottish Government has suffered a humiliating defeat in the UK’s highest court after its controversial “state guardian” scheme was ruled unlawful.
The judgment emphasises the importance of article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights - on the right to a private and family life - and in a withering passage states:
"The first thing that a totalitarian regime tries to do is to get to the children, to distance them from the subversive, varied influences of their families, and indoctrinate them in their rulers’ view of the world. Within limits, families must be left to bring up their children in their own way.”

And from one witch to another , Merkel rules out Migrant policy reversal . Nice to know that the democratic EU goes and asks the other 26 nations what they think .

Two men have been jailed for 4 years for smuggling immigrants into UK.
Well we're seeing some Justice at last..It's to be hoped those immigrants that
were smuggled into the country illegally are deported forthwith, with NO lengthy
appeals.

Post 72891,
If only it could be done retrospectively and I could choose who would be subjected to the procedure, I would give willingly.
