It was Hitzfeld apparently. Damned fine dossier though

Didnt BP fund 9/11 as well?

Im more confused at the fact Gazza has an agent, wtf does little Kenny do for his money like???

Oh no you're right I mean who needs a Public sector anyway? Theyre only the people who empty your bins or ensure you have streets clean enough to walk in but we can do without that, nothing to stop you delivering your own rubbish to the dump and having a bit of a clean up once a week outside the house. We can get rid of libraries eh after all kids dont need to read, swimming pools? sports centres? pah they're not important for health after all you can swim in the lakes and rivers (just as long as you dont need to be rescued of course). All those flights you take Rob, who do you think controls the skies and more importantly ensures that lunatics dont slit your throat when you run out of ice for their drink? Think the country is overrun by immigrants now? just wait until theres no Border Patrol or Immigration service. The thought of all those immigrants running round giving you a heart attack? Lets hope not mate after all you dont want to be driving yourself to hospital with the smell of almonds wafting through your nostrils.....oh wait hospital yeah, better get on the phone while driving there to organise a loan to pay for your care. Got a nice view from your house? Just wait until theres no planning rules and Tesco build a superstore outside your front door or they decide to run a motorway through your back garden. Still, you wont have to worry about that should you accidentally drop a match or forget you've left the chip pan on, its difficult to put out a house fire with a bucket of water. Sometimes they may get it wrong and shoot an innocent bloke on the tube but lets see a country without a police force eh? Once you've got rid of all those then theres no reason for HMRC and we can all live tax free eh, what a happy day. The simple fact of life is that you'll be hard pushed to find a private sector job that is essential to the running of this country yet almost every Public Sector job brings something either to people lives or for the good of the country overall. As Percy Street said, the loss of these jobs and reductions in budgets has a major knock on effect across the Private sector. Decimating travel budgets may seem like a a good thing but it in turn has a knock on effect to local business. Id estimate that there must be at least 30 or 40 taxi rides taken in Newcastle by HMRC staff each day to/ from airport and train station. Over the last few years these journeys have been rightly whittled down to the essential trips only. Video conferencing and the like have replaced non essential trips. SO these 40% cuts are going to have to come from essential trips. So what we have now is 40% less essential work being completed and a reduction in the amount of money being made by local taxi firms, bus companies, shops, restaurants, hotels etc. Cutting the Public Service cuts everyone else in one way or another, be it in the services we receive for our taxes or money made indirectly.

I say that while hes gone we buy a new domain name and restart from scratch, move everyone over to the new one and leave this sitting like a ghost town. The loss of our identity s a small price to pay...... 3 days folks thats all we've got, time is tight..

And so it begins.... Government now force through changes n the law to allow them to change employment terms and conditions without fear of reprisal. For years I have taken a lower wage than the equivalent job in the Private sector because I had "job security" and a "good pension". I (and everyone else in the Public Service) accepted tiny negligible pay rises year on year because we knew that it was highly unlikely that we'd be made redundant and should it ever happen then we'd be compensated accordingly in the way our contracts stated. I would never argue that payoffs werent way way better than most in Private sector however now suddenly when redundancy becomes a harsh possibility we're being told that our contracts are worthless and if we go then we'll be getting a fraction of what we're due. Two high court judges have already ruled that its llegal to do it so to get around that the government is simply going to change the law. Whats the use in having employment laws and such if the employer can simply change them when it suits?

Belated greetings mate

Have a good un mate

Raoul Moat has said he will only target the police and the public are safe. In other news Northumbria Police announce 'Dress Down Wednesday'

Ellie saw a kid who looked like Moat at ASDA Gosforth earlier only this one was wearing a t-shirt saying "Im not Moat"

I cant believe this fucker is still on the loose. How can 6 combined armed police forces not catch one bloke?

Its a gay one. Yes ginga I called you gay...whatcha gonna do about it eh?

Its like a Meenzer dream

I went for a reunion 2 years ago half the school wad brand new while the other bit hadn't changed since the day I left, 21 years ago.

I donno like, we get a PFI hospital or school which costs £500m, we're paying back £3b over 25 years and beyond, that's why we're crippled as a country, 99.9% of people can't grasp, understand, or be aware of that. However, they've not said it's the PFI that's elbowed but the work itself. I want my kid edumacated in a building that's not falling apart and/or full of asbestos.

PFI or not, stopping the renovation of schools is a bad thing.

You're doing it wrong

tempted to sign upto Facebook as Ashley and post "hoo ye bald fat cunt, Ive been shagging your lass" on his wall.

Im gonna instigate an investigation into your tax returns. New Kitchen Media Centres LCD TV tips in the back pocket I reckon.

The copper that was shot is a part time referee in the Northern League, according to a lad at work who knows him, hes basically lost his face. Allegedly theres a taxi driver on his list too, never shut up about the great election result or summat while driving him home from the nick.

Bloke walks into a bar and declares "its my Birthday" Barman replies "why the big paws?"....oh hang on I mean "why the long face?"....nah thats not it I mean barman replies "get out ya Bard" You can have that one on me

are you taking the piss If you're a Forest fan is is, £1m in the bank.

I was always a fan of Pedro, Waddle and Gazza but for me the one that always really excited me was Ginola. So unpredicatable and yet could turn a game in an instant. As an aside I regularly see Pedro buying up the pasties in Greggs at 4 Lane Ends in a morning (some breakfast that!)

Seems a bit shitty that hes got to walk in like

Speaking of shows, the BBC World service did a feature on NUFC fans as part of a global piece on passionate fans. Caulkin linked it on his twitter account a few days ago. It was recorded in the Irish Club with some of the NUST committee on the morning of the last game of the season.
