meregreen Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 One of Cameron's advisors is arrested on suspicion of child abuse images. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-26428308 Wonder how the Daily Heil will pin that on Milliband. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingfisher Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) Oh and they put on hold plans to sell your medical records, denying the system would be misused for commercial gain, then they do this,http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/healthnews/10656893/Hospital-records-of-all-NHS-patients-sold-to-insurers.htmlDisgusting. How is this legal? Someone should take this up in Strasbourg.This one slipped by with very little fuss didn't it. The BBC likes to drive home the Tory 'we must outsource' message when understaffed wards with over worked nurses results in levels of care falling short. What's vile is the way that the nurses, who's view is never heard, are passively blamed. So, no heads have rolled for this, and yet here it's reported that more data is being used for commercial purposes. http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-families/health-news/hospital-records-used-to-target-ads-on-twitter-and-facebook-say-privacy-campaigners-in-latest-nhs-data-concerns-9166633.html?utm_content=buffere1d32&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=bufferMore of your confidential medical records have been sold it seems. This time Marcus Agius has got hold of them. What could possibly be the problem in letting a man who was 'heavily involved' in the Barclays Libor scandal loose with your most private information? You might want to remember all this come May 2015, especially if your insurance premiums have gone up...http://tompride.wordpress.com/2014/03/03/government-sells-entire-nhs-patient-data-to-firm-headed-by-disgraced-banker/ Edited March 4, 2014 by Kingfisher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingfisher Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 At Paddy Power you can bet on the Pistorius trial. Surely it's time to tighten up the regulations on betting. I'd start by banning those freakin' annoying betting adverts. 'Will you? Won't you? Will you? Won't you?' Yes I bloody would! Who's the daddy now!

villaajax Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) I see this news has been buried pretty quickly. Much about it in the Heil? No, better to hound somebody for having a tenuous link to a paedophile organisation rather than an alleged paedophile.

Yes, agree with that, it would be shameful not to impose sanctions for our own short term interests. But the alternative we are contemplating is imposing sanctions for our own short term interests. Which would also be shameful. I suppose taking a broader view, and not following in the wake of that shocking, disgraceful, preening hypocrite Kerry, is out of the question? Should our choices be framed by such reprobate scumbags as Rifkind and Kerry, or rather the interests for which they are the paid mouthpieces? I think not.

snowychap Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) Well, don't condemn me for begrudgingly agreeing with a comment made by Rifkind with which you would also agree (I found myself in some agreement, i.e. that it is shameful not to impose sanctions just because it may damage what (a very few of us - i.e. those in the UK) may have or might well want to have), but point out the shameful and short term interest driven alternative sanctions that are being suggested and why they are that.

No, better to hound somebody for having a tenuous link to a paedophile organisation rather than an actual paedophile. Last but one word, there's a typo - you misspelled "alleged". Actually no. He has been arrested but not charged and certainly not convicted. We also don't know (since he hasn't been charged - yet) what the offence is. Surprised this comment has survived since it is potentially libellous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But unfair on Ajax for you and PeterMS to keep quoting the original post. It's like you're trying to get him in trouble or something ....
