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.

Aids,
Don't write about Tanker like that.
You know he is sensitive.

By the way as you don't seem to have realise "Dad's Army" is a comedy program, not yesterday's news.

Tanker,
Surely you can't equate our MPs with Muggers, Fraudsters, Embezzler and those that have been sentenced for Misconduct in public office.
Of course all the above offenses fit many of our MPs, but if you look specifically at Misconduct in a Public Office.
Misconduct in Public Office is an offense at common law triable only on indictment. It carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment. It is an offense confined to those who are public office holders and is committed when the office holder acts (or fails to act) in a way that constitutes a breach of the duties of that office.
Definition of the offense
A public officer acting as such willfully neglects to perform his duty and/or willfully misconducts himself to such a degree as to amount to an abuse of the publics trust in the office holder without reasonable excuse or justification. The culpability 'must be of such a degree that the misconduct impugned is calculated to injure the public interest so as to call for condemnation and punishment'.
This offense to my mind is what most of those that have escaped prosecution for 'fiddling their expenses' should have been deal under.
When it comes to others, such as 'Police Officers' this offense is often and quite rightly used, often on the insistence of MPs.
This offense is often far easier to prove than many others and if it had been looked at for many MPs who have escaped (got away with) prosecution, we would have seen many more in court.
I suspect the reason why it was not used, is because it would not do to show the high level of corruption in our MPs, so only a token gesture of MPs were prosecuted.
One law for them, one for us still applies.

NM,
You have just reminded me about my bread making and the second rising.
It will be alright in the end.
For many the end was Nye (Bevan), especially the doctors.

Tanker,
No I missed panorama.
I have given up watching many such programs, for the sole reason it winds me up too much.
I must admit to becoming more and more 'The angry man'.
Did this simple test. Try it yourself.
8 Simple Questions:
1 Has it ever been suggested that you might have a problem with anger?
A No!
2 Do you sometimes wonder why you get so angry, or angry so often?
A No I always know when I'm angry!
3 Do you stay angry and bitter at people that have treated you unjustly or unfairly?
A Yes, sometimes, depending how unjust or unfair!
4 Are you impatient or intolerant of yourself and others?
A Yes, sometimes!
5 Have you been told (more than once) that you have an excessive need to be "right"?
A No!
6 Do you feel, more often than not, that you do not receive the respect that you deserve?
A Yes!
7 Do you have difficulty letting others get close to you (difficulty trusting)?
A Yes! who can you trust now-days!
8 Does it feel like most of your intentions are misinterpreted or misunderstood?
Yes and No!
If yes to any two questions, you likely have a problem with anger.
If yes to any two questions, you likely have a problem with anger.
So 4 out of 8 then. According to research I have a problem with anger. What do they know, the sanctimonious b*****ds.
