    Nothing got stolen and no-one was killed so yes I suppose it was. I wouldn't do it out of practice though, I doubt you'd leave your door in aber open every night on purpose though would you?

      Left-wing paths selfish? Giving away some of your earnings in taxes to help others selfish? I see now...

      And remember this age group includes you, Bodders.

        So reddy, how are the conservatives doing in your country?

        Explain me. I am young but certainly not left-wing.

        Boddy, it shines right through... you really don't know a thing you are talking about.

          This is the most affluent generation in British history, with the greatest set of personal freedoms ever enjoyed by anybody in this country, so I can only conclude that the younger generation are a bunch of whiny complacent fools who need a good slapping.

            Or maybe we don't like Tories dictating what is good for us, or Labour giving false promises. As far as I can see section 28 is still in effect so no, I don't trust Labour.

              There are two important facts you have to bear in mind.

              1- Britain has never been terribly good at that patriotism thing and tends to regard the present government at any given time as interchangeable with things normally found living under rocks.

              2- The favourite national pastime of the British is moaning. We weren't labelled "whingeing poms" for nothing.

                Let me run the country.... (Just make sure there is a helicopter ready to take me out of there after two days so I don't get lynched)

                    Well the Lords scuppered that one, after the Gov. got it through the commons - come on, give Tony marks for trying....

                      I refuse to

                      Labour have been in power for 5 years, more than enough time to invoke the Parliament Act.

                      And don't even get me started on the Lords...

                        Is Parliament Act to pass something over objection of Lords? How long can they delay a bill?

                          I have no problem with crime in Warwickshire . As in, never, ever, at all.

                          Football hooliganism is hardly rampant, either--the Millwall hooligans are certainly a separate entity from the fans of that club. The worst club in this regard is Cardiff, which (at least passively) encourage hooliganism. Go to a football match not involving Cardiff or Milwall and you should be fine.

                            For 2 years. It originally came into effect when the King helped it through (the Lords would have blocked it in a wonderful catch 22).

                              2 years? That's ridiculous. Our Senate can only block for 90 days, God bless 'em...
