Plain stupid

Although i have posted a couple of questioning comments and this is another one. I would like to add first that I do have admiration for the fact that you have risen through the ranks to a position of prominence. The reason why i am asking these questions is I believe that i am a socialist at heart but what i have seen of socialism as presented in the media leaves me somewhat confused. The following is a link about a person who i personally believe, on the face of the information in the media, should be fully supported. I am curious to your thoughts on this. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/comment/columnists/jemima-lewis/5178670/The-NHS-fails-again-and-again-it-seems-nobody-is-to-blame.html

Often when people resort to these measures it is because they feel that their voice is not being heard. Your own voice is heard because of your current privileged position. A position which at times you have taken very lightly. Since you seem to have adopted the high moral ground here in the interest of public decency maybe you wouldn't mind commenting on this article: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-479478/PETER-OBORNE-The-rise-sleaze-ocrats-Britains-ruling-class.html

Or will i be left listening to the silent echo of tumbleweed rolling?

What a super site I must inform Guido

"Sliming" Lord Mandelson was utterly and completely indefensible and wrong.

On the contrary what was required was the application of some substance with the requisite chemical properties to absorb slime.

Genius

Police originally said they would not investigate the matter, but backtracked after former deputy prime minister John Prescott said it would be "totally unacceptable" to allow it to pass unchallenged.....so now Labour peers change the law for CASH.. and labour mp's can get you prosecuted ...hmmmmmmmm

I feel reasonably confident that the cleaning bills will have been put through on expenses.
The only ( slight ) damage would have been to Mandelson's enormous ego. Perhaps more Scotland Yard focus should be applied to the seemingly nefarious business of MPs additional allowances where lots of slime is evident.

The law is too soft in this country. So she only got a caution but for the far more serious crime of mortgage fraud Mandy should have been locked for 3 years. What happened? Nothing! He is a sleaze bag of the highest order... you said it yourself (although behind closed doors!!)

So he got his clothes dirty. Perhaps he should have chinned her?

'Such actions will now be held to acccout' - MPs have been fleecing the tax payer for years and I will put money on the fact that not one will be prosecuted for fraud, you lot protect each other when it comes to money. As for the protesters actions, the democratic process is a sham and you know it.

It is a disgrace that this custard wielding criminal was not given a harsher punishment. We have to drive home the message that the only acceptable way to protest is through the peaceful and democratic forums set up by our elected representatives. ...right, as if any of you listen.

It really is pathetic that we live in such a 'democratic state' where a citizen who felt so strongly about an issue, and about her government's inaction on it, threw some custard and was pursued by the police. Big deal, everyone should get over it; maybe the Met should spend more time investigating real crime as opposed to acting like the Labour Party's enforcement unit.

Mr. Prescott, I fully expect you to go on record and be just as demanding for an investigation relating to the death of Ian Tomlinson as you were for an investigation into this. And not a whitewash where there is not 'enough evidence' to support a conviction of a police officer who clearly contravened the law, but a bone fide investigation that will point fingers and lay the blame. Otherwise, you and your party are just a joke.

Hubbert’s Peak Oil Theory states that for any given area, the rate of petroleum production tends to follow a bell curve.

Tax on fuel over the period 1993 and 1999 has seen a rapid increase with duties on fuel increasing by 3% above inflation. This was due to a major change in petrol taxation in 1993 when the Conservatives introduced the Fuel Price 'escalator'. This was a way of the government making money and also to help protect the environment by discouraging people from using their cars.

That is why I have said before it is not an environmental tax on fuel simply a workers tax because this is a finite resource and fuel will be used until it is exhausted.

The 29-year-old member of the Plane Stupid campaign group should stop reading and following like a sheep these ignorant people.

She should apply a little common sense if she bought a pint of lager would she half empty it then say I am leaving that because it might injure my health?

Now apply that analogy to the world's half emptied oil and gas 'Tank'

Therefore the environmental impact will be the same but will be spread over a longer period of time whatever the cost of fuel.

Looks like a sensible outcome; anything more risked turning her into a martyr. Well done for keeping the issue active.

I'm all for the right to demonstrate peacefully but the environment is so well established as an issue that many demonstrations about it border on smug self-indulgence. Stunts may get you onto prime-time television but are unlikely to advance your cause; ones such as this that involve physical assaults are completely unacceptable...

Unfortunately, peaceful protest on a meaningful scale has become all but impossible given that the protesters are either beaten up by the police or arrested, before they can even protest,called terrorists, and then released with out charge the next day.

Slime in the face is an inevitable response.
