Depends how you look at it - you could argue that they're empowered single mothers. Everytime I hear something from them they just sound like dessicated husks who have long forgotten what it is to be even remotely human.

80k?!! No.

Sounds like they were meant to be found. Exploding tanks of fuel is not easy and doesn't cause much of an explosion just a bit of a fireball.

yet I suppose you would have sauntered over to it, looked inside, and declared the all clear? ....better to light joshsticks and do a little hippie dance surely..?

Almost amateur.

Well ignoring the fact their are basically lying to everyone (I guess people simply expect that from their elected officials these days). The only downside is really IF they use the same methods (silly scare tactics and science misconstrued to the point of being a lie - it's a bigger public deception than the dodgey dossier ever was) to ban something else (motorbikes, abortions, chips, whatever - it's actually quite amazing how draconian this legislation is if you look at it out of the direct context). Of course the British government would never do anything like that would they. quite apart from the fact it wasn't government policy at all but a free vote of the commons, won by an unprecedented majority as it happens Again a vote based largely upon scare tactics and lies. Many quite terrible things have been "democratically" won by a "free" majority, that's got little to do with anything (look at the Iraq vote, same thing [scare tactics and lies], was that therefore "right"?). As I said the smoking ban itself I'll enjoy, I'm just sensible enough to understand I should be concerned about how exactly it's has been pushed though. Id cards anyone?

We'll be looking for your vote when we ask for a major city wide car ban at weekends....Now that is a real nasty air/smell issue.

In all honesty, much as I'll prefer a smoke free atmosphere, the second hand smoke hysetria maybe the most over egged nonsense in history. Outside of young children at home and people that work 30+ hours a week in (preivously) smoky bars/pubs the actual increase in incidence of anything second hand smoke related (over and above your average pollution/every day lifestyle issues) is very, very small. The thing that worries me is if they'll basically make all this stuff up (which is what they are doing, very, very loosely basing it on science and then exaggerating everything to the nth degree) about second hand smoke to push though an agenda what will they use it on next? Aye Fop. What next eh? I'm looking forward to the next 'intervention' (I've got some ideas like). They'll be looking to plug the shortfall from smokers tax.

I too reckon Martins is gone.

smoking at work comes under employee perks, not rights you need to see your HR department and ask to see the company policy on work-time smoking I am HR and the policy allows them to smoke without keying out, other area's such as Ragina's (assume she's Inland Revenue) have to clock out. ...maybe you should ask them if it is appropriate if you 'key back in' every time you are home thinking about work related issues or infact doing work at home.

Got to be candidate for most misleading news story of the year. It should read: "Car found abandoned by drunk driver with camping gas in boot."

...with no lives.

I take fucking Forrest Whittaker ahead of that clown Carr. I'd take Forrest Gump over Carr. In fact make that Kielder Forest.

Not a huge surprise that Sam is cleaning house. Carr has never been ths same since his injury.

Thought it was going to be low budget porn.

I joined recently. ...and Chez Given is on there and 4/5 others...

It's reverse engineered.

Curly hair never wins with Joe publicum.

Here we go They've come to pick up Blair. Not another free trip I hope. Does that fucker ever pay for a holiday? ...long old trip this one mind.

Here we go They've come to pick up Blair.

It begins.

...makes yer balls shrivel apparently.... Testicularoonetastic.

I don't agree.. I think he'll turn them around actually... Aye he will. Top 6 candidates next season if he gets the money to spend. Owen a target apparently.

All they need to say is season after season of greatness to come. END.

Sima didn't quite come to the boil for me.
