Seeing as the Al Yamamah investigation was stopped 'for reasons of security' it doesn't take much of a leap of imagination to think that labour would have suppressed the story had this legislation been in place.


And this is cross party, so I can't even blame labour.

God I hope this goes no further.

Don?t worry we know what you mean.


As an aside though you have just highlighted the very reason why I am always so outspoken, fanatical even about civil liberties. It?s because I grew up in a country where they were restricted. Even when I was in primary school it pissed me off.

A favourite line in Dead Set last week was when the producer of Big Brother shouted at someone and was told to treat people properly, he barked "yeah alright Shami Chakrabarti..." - it just reflected how many people hold civil liberties in low regard


There is a a lot of consent being manufactured in recent years it has to be said - so no surprise to hear I'm with Brendan, Piers et al on this one...

There's never a precision-guided stealth bomb handy when you need one, is there?

It?s like they don?t give a shit, they do whatever they like, but, somehow, they know everyone will love it.


It could be with an envious eye that an outsider might look upon this charmed gang, not only talented and connected, but assisted and enabled by a company of similarly talented and connected friends. Bistrotheque is their Algonquin...


Grand looned around in her Balenciaga dress, Vuitton shoes and her prize, a big hairy wolf mask. They may be stars now, but they still roll in the old East End style.

    • If no one else has a problem, then it sugggests that the delivery person may not be aware of any harm and would respond well to a conversation. It also goes without saying that just because no one else has a problem, that the OP is not valid in raising their issues.
    • Remember, you never know what someone else is going through behind closed doors....
    • Is anyone else having difficulty booking Silver Swim sessions (Tuesday and Thursday between 3pm-4pm?) Almost all the spaces are taken before the online booking system opens at 10pm several days before. Last night there appeared to be one space available for next Tuesday. I tried to book at one second past 10pm but was unsuccessful. This seems to have been a recent phenomenon. I made a telephone call this morning but just received a recorded message saying that the voicemail box was full. Am I right in assuming that in person bookings are now taking precedence over online ones?
    • I completely agree with you, Angelina. But it's worth noting that no one else has a problem with her, or finds her rude /  has mentioned her aggressively banging gates / ringing doorbells etc.
