I just had a call from my friend who lives that way saying a massive HGV rolled backwards into a pedestrian, dragging her under, apparently her head went under the wheel! :'(


Not sure how conclusive this is as we know how these things become chinese whispers:-S


Awful if true though, it's all cloesed still apparently.

I was reflecting in an objective manner on an incident from my own past which was quite distressing to all involved at the time. It was most unpleasant indeed - but then again so is the subject of this thread so I don't quite know why one is edited and the other not.

She was a young black 29 year old woman just trying to catch the train in time. She was leaving LLoyds bank and somebody I know was exiting the bank at the same time, she held the door for people then crossed the road , the lorry was coming toward her and was not going too fast apparently, the lorry caught her and unfortunately ran over her. Poor girl. Poor family. This is the second incident this year that I know of tall lorries running over people. They should have sensors or something in place to help prevent this.

    • £30-40 for M&S Christmas food for two seems very low! And only £60 for food and drink for 8-10 people?  We have had M&S food at Christmas in the past, and it came to a lot more than that. I suppose it depends exactly what you are buying. We left it late to book a Christmas Day meal out last year, so there weren't many options left.  The Cherry Tree menu looked very nice. That was our first mistake. We also overlooked the fact that it was a Young's pub, with all that implies about the food. That was our second mistake. We don't have shedloads of money. We  took the view that we deserved a nice meal  out after working bloody hard all year. So it was doubly disappointing to basically waste a lot of money which could have been very much better  spent elsewhere.
    • No sweetheart. It is a fantastic sermon which should be shared. It is a rights-based sermon which received a standing ovation - if you can be bothered to get to the end.
    • Welcome back. What have voting intentions got to do with this thread? And much as you may hate the present incarnation of so-called Labour, as do I,  I don't think it is true that they have "not done a single positive thing for working class people", is it? And how exactly are you defining "working class people", anyway? 
    • I can’t bear the media “is this racist comment racist” angle taken to reporting it. I feel like she’s a useful out rider for Farage to test how far they can take their rhetoric - it’s not the first time she’s said things that cross over the line. Overt racism is becoming far more commonplace and it’s deeply concerning.
