Where is Cameron

Re: Where is Cameron

I've just read 5corpio's last entry on the media thread about a 19th century claim form having to be filled in for damages incurred during the "riots"

Is there not a legal problem here? Does not the relevant section of the Riot Act have to be read to the crowds whether they hear it or not? Are not the police very reluctant to "read" the Riot Act as they become responsible for any damage sustained after the reading?

I seem to remember something about it all in Queens Regulations when in boot camp in the sixties and the relevance to civilian riot.

Perhaps one of the legals could throw some clarification please?

i don't think they really thought it through, when they dug that one out for making claims, as the Police denying that its not a Riot, it was the Media claiming it as a Riot (Only been picking up bits of news over the last few days, of what i've heard). Revert back to the claim form, i think they've hurried things through, for those to make claims in a hurry? Note on Garlok last comment - in RED

Re: Where is Cameron

There's an interesting link from that - apparently Nick Clegg once burned two greenhouses of cacti.

Of course, all that is long ago in his past and he's hardly likely to do anything like that again, even by accident. It's rather difficult to mistaken the LibDem Party or the Cabinet for a load of cacti because, with cacti, all the pricks are on the outside.

Well put mate

Excellent link Handy, It might even have been crafted by yourself in the grounds of Hooray Hall.

Re: Where is Cameron

Does anyone here think that taking away the Educational Maintenance Allowance these school leavers got when they went into further education was a good idea?

My eldest son who is now in employment got this payment each week and thinks that was a big mistake it is not a lot from £10 to £30 depending on your parents earnings however in my sons case it did help with the cost of taking part in out of collage activities etc.

I am not saying what these teenagers did was right and all they have done is dig themselves a bigger hole, but we do need to listen to them more.

Ok for some it was just wanton vandalism, theft and indeed murder but some of these are frustrated at the actions of those in Government who do not set a good example.

Many of these teenagers have come from a broken family with one parent and thus have not been taught right from wrong and go by what they see and hear and make there own judgement.

It is a right mess which ever way we look at it and thus it is not a time that we sit on our backsides and just allow it to happen there needs to be input from all so this can be mended starting from the top our government.

Re: Where is Cameron

More seriously though on the uniform front, CC. Here in North Wales under the idiot (you drive a vehicle therefore you are a guilty criminal now prove your innocence) Brunstrom, black shirts and baseball caps were introduced. It was not long before the more thuggery inclined types in the service starte to tuck their trousers into their boots and made themselves look as much like fascist paramilitaries as they could. Our house resounded to the sound of gunshots every Sunday morning for long periods as they trained on a police range close to us.

After 4 hours one day of the plodcopter hovering over our house I complained and was told the biggest pack of lies you could ever wish to hear. When I took issue with a local councillor, now got himself a seat on the Police Authority, who is an ex village policeman to boot, was the Police Federation represenataive for the area, he stated that he was the one responsible for getting paramilitary unfiforms introduced "because his missus was fed up with washing his normal uniform shirts"

Are all policemen this cretinous? How on earth do they expect to command respect amongst the yobs and oiks when they have mentality and intelligence as low as this and are alienating people like ourselves who are law abiding and abhor what has gone on this week.

Frederick Forsyth today is a very good read in the Daily Express as is his colleague on the opposite page.

What did I say earlier about a Land Army and hutted camps.He took it a stage further by saying that the staff could easily be made up of the NCOs that are being made redundant from the Armed Services who no doubt would be gald to bring some real discipline to the transgressors.

I did tell the mods the other day that he read this site l

Re: Where is Cameron

Here's another bit of piffle:

Punishments are derisory; the police are simultaneously bullying but ineffectual and incompetent, increasingly dressed in paraphernalia that makes them look more like the occupiers of Afghanistan than the force imagined by Robert Peel.

Whilst that comment on police uniforms may be accurate, one must surely doubt that its author had the least idea of the uniform worn or equipment carried in in Sir Robert's day. Then, the police constable wore a cut-away tailcoat and, rather than a helmet, he wore a reinforced top hat on which he could stand to look over walls, etc.; in winter, his trousers were blue but, in summer, the trousers were white. He was armed not only with the traditional truncheon, but also with a cutlass and perhaps with a flintlock pistol or two!

Hey CC l

But B&Q would do a roaring trade in hiring those rug doctor thingys AND they could employ more disenchanted burger flippers from MaccyD's

Re: Where is Cameron

British rioters the spawn of a bankrupt ruling elite.

FROM HERE[/I]

Perhaps Amy Winehouse was its finest flower and its truest representative in her militant and ideological vulgarity, her stupid taste, her vile personal conduct and preposterous self-pity.

Her sordid life was a long bath in vomitus, literal and metaphorical, for which the exercise of her very minor talent was no excuse or explanation. Yet not a peep of dissent from our intelllectual class was heard after her near canonisation after her death, that class having long had the backbone of a mollusc.

She were the People's Poet innit.

We will never forget you, Jane Goony.

Re: Where is Cameron

Well we copy the sceptics in many other ways don't we? How about "Texas Law" applying here. You have committed no crime if you blast an intruder in your property with a firearm and he/she exits backwards. You must not shoot them in the back. Case for all decent people to own a 12 bore then. The little buggers would not be too happy about coming in then either.

That's not the answer.

They'd make an awful mess on one's carpets.
