Thanks! :)

Though I probably should point out that I'm not a die hard Brucie fan (I can happily take or leave him, I don't even watch strictly!)

I just really get on one when someone with ideas WAY above their station start mouthing off about others simply to further their own career. If you didn't know better you'd think more…

Yeah, I chose socialist as a fairly broad umbrella term. I could perhaps have chosen a more appropriate term, but it'll do.

The editors / readers of "Socialist Worker" would have a field day with me about it, but hey ho. more…

A Murdock talking about independent news media now that really is something to chew/choke on ! My understanding of the Murdock empire is that they want to control all national newspapers, television and now radio.

Also prostitution has had a lot of bad press, with all the prostitutes apparently being forced drugs by their pimps and children being taken and forced to work in the trade, whereas por more…

I understand that the Americans have promised to look after Mr McKinnon in relation to his needs, but to those (including politicians) who consider this acceptable, may I point out the following.
