    [Drinking] UHT Milk v Fresh Milk Dispute. Adjudication needed!

    Fresh. Once that has been agreed, they can get into the argument about skimmed, semi-skimmed or full fat milk.

    Local spy story

    The tale of Colin Wallace is packed with so much unbelievable detail that it can be used to prove or disprove just about any rumour relating to Northern Ireland or the current allegations of historic child sex abuse. The name of the game he was playing was Misinformation. What bits can be...

    Safe Standing Poll

    Are you talking about safe standing throughout the stadium, in one stand only, or in part of one stand only? And which stand or stands do you have in mind? And what about visiting supporters?

    Clerk Jailed for Refusing to Give out Gay marriage licences

    The court has no powers to fire her. She was elected to her position and the courts have no powers to overthrow the results of an election, without going through the full process of impeachment, which is very time consuming.

    [Misc] 11 billion people

    Maybe Google should come clean and admit that to find what you are looking for requires 100 separate searches. The true statistic is that about three and a half million people a day succeed in finding what they were looking for when they used Google. Edit I might be exaggerating slightly...

    Clerk Jailed for Refusing to Give out Gay marriage licences

    No public official should be allowed to put their personal religious beliefs ahead of their duty to do the job that they have been appointed to do.

    Clerk Jailed for Refusing to Give out Gay marriage licences

    Doesn't the US constitution REQUIRE the separation of church and state?

    PCN Program on TV

    No. The bailiffs will still have the authority to execute the order of the court. All I am questioning is whether the action of the police in stopping the vehicle requires the driver, at that moment, to deal with the bailiffs. When I worked for the Council and we wanted to do interview...

    UK net migration hits record high

    This is complete cobblers. Cameron's proposal will ensure that the UK government selects genuine refugees to enter the country under the scheme that is being worked up. I'm aware of earlier (unpublicised) schemes to admit refugees into the UK and the people that arrived had to jump through all...

    Where next, for Chelski's Doc Eva Carneiro..?

    If ever there was a case where it is obvious that all of the individuals need to be properly represented by a trade union, it is this one. And they all are, it would seem.

    PCN Program on TV

    The bailiffs are acting on the authority of the court, but that authority does not extend to giving them the right to stop moving vehicles. The police, of course, do have that authority, and the driver is required to stop if instructed by a police officer. I'm not sure whether the driver is...

    [Cricket] Worcs v Sussex 01-09-15 New Road 10.30 start

    John Lees has no idea what a legend is. He once introduced me to Gus Poyet as "an Albion legend". Poyet just looked baffled.

    Referees to start dishing out GREEN cards

    Yep. A green card is a residence permit, is it not? When I lived in Italy, before the UK joined the EU, the way I got my residence permit was to bribe a policeman. Surely that still works? I don't see the point of inviting football referees into the process.

    Anyone have there own Company? What do you think of the new 7.5% dividend tax.

    Income being taxed? Disgraceful. Especially if you voted Tory.

    Badly behaved children ruining British pubs

    Is this a thread about things that don't trouble us? Personally, I'm rarely bothered about traffic signals turning red ... although I understand that some people get really CROSS when this happens.

    Nah. It's obvious. You and Beach Hut must take responsibility. And Simster.

    To say nothing of all the teachers in those schools.
