peterms Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 If I found somebody going through my bins at my home, it'd be hard to know what their intentions wereOn the balance of probabilities, I'd say it would be someone on work experience with News International.Unlikely. They all seem to use some professional who goes through people’s bins, I ve forgotten his name, but Private Eye used to feature him on a regular basisYou mean Benji the Binman.But he's retired, there were always too many interesting bins for him to cover all on his lonesome, and anyway any good apprenticeship should incorporate learning some of the core skills of the profession in question.So I stand by my suggestion.

Kingfisher Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 If you earn £200,000 a year the 50p tax rate will leave you circa £2000 a year worse off... Hardly news to top yourself over. On the subject of suicide, how much has the bedroom tax saved us? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterms Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 The case for a bedroom tax. About a million quid per room per week sounds right. Retrospective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowychap Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 What is Gove on? Get state school kids to sit CE papers? Why? Is he suggesting that state schools spend two or three years beforehand training the kids to sit an exam that only really has one purpose (i.e. to be used as an admissions tool for senior independent schools)? And who is to mark them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veloman Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Absolutely spot-on Mr Chap ! If I searched all through my limited, and mostly profane, vocabulary I could never have come up with such a good description for this specimen, Gove, as "pip squeak" as uttered by Tom Watson - Labour MP, West Bromwich ! I consider Gove to be the most dangerous man in the Conservative party and seems intent on destroying teachers much as Thatcher destroyed the miners . I'm sure that there are qualified teachers on here; so what do you think ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is bad for you, bad for the environment, bad for democracy, it's even no bloody use to good small employers. It's good for one small group of people.

peterms Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 So, as the SNP try to create a difficult position for the government on the bedroom tax, the UN again describe it as an an affront to human rights. But Mr Shapps, he of the multiple identities, has dismissed it on the basis that it was written by "a woman from Brazil". It is not clear whether being a woman, or being from Brazil, is the more serious offence. I suppose the Boys from Brazil would be more to his taste. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingfisher Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Have they commented on the final report? They needn't bother. We all know it will be something along the lines of '**** off you Marxist scum', as was their response to the preliminary findings. Makes me wonder why they even bothered to comment at all.
