Another point of view would be that Britain was placed on the list or accelerated up to the top because we joined in on Americas side. Seems sense to me. Rule of law? Now did those women who chained themselves to railings in order to get the right to vote accept the rule of law? Of course...

I would observe that at the last election there were only two parties with any hope of getting a majority. Either Labour, which supported the war, or the conservatives who supported continuing with it now that it was started, and who almost certainly would have backed it had they been in...

Relish what happened Freddie? No. The world was a better place before 7/11 and almost certainly would have been a better place without London's incident. And I think that the British self-control which the media seem to be going on about now might have something to do with a lot of people not...

There were lots of newspaper headlines yesterday about delays in identifying people. Well, I think we had an explanation. The police would be hoping to catch any accomplices of any deceased who turned out to be a bomber. But I am not sure it fills me with confidence that the police's main lead...

Wasn't the religion of the nazi party that Arians were gods chosen? Even the Nazis who didn't look remotely Arian, well especially those ones. Americans often have a similar view about Americans. Now, someone commented on whether Blair and Bush were responsible for this, and indeed 7/11. I am...

Wrong? about what? Europe is pretty much business as usual. Didn't you notice it has always juddered along in fits and starts? Regrettably, my own point of view re dangers from Iraq seems to have been correct.....though it is rather early to know exactly what happened in London. I don't mind...

The fact that a politician says something is no guarantee that it is true

Sorry Freddie, this is not about being muslim. It just happens that the countries concerned are predominately muslim. Every country that goes to war invokes its own God on its side. Always has. Us too. And then one of the tricks which countries use to get help is to claim that it is a holy war...

Well now, i think the catholic church has run a few crusades in its time. The Catholic and Protestants have had a good go in Ireland, and other parts of Europe. The trouble is that religion gets roped in to support what you wanted to do anyway. it just becomes a lable for our lot and their lot...

Well, it all depends how you look at it. Rage is not really a useful thing, nor really is horror. Things like this happen evry single day somewhere. Noticeably quite a lot in Iraq. I presume the whole city there does not grind to a halt just because another bomb has gone off. People get used to...

I think it is desireable to have this information to hand and seems to be quite balanced, with the exception of 'scam' as already mentioned. Imputing bad motives to government sounds like tempting fate. However..... is there to be a general policy of affixing notices on every forum about each...

What happens when you spray water on the top of the shower? does it run down the cable to the inside?

Be interesting if someone can firm up the figures a bit. Is it that accidents go up at cameras, or go up 100m before the camera and 100m after? How many extra accidents would be low enough to justify the extra revenue they generate?

Which is rather the point. people get paid extra for unsocial hours. How much extra depends on how how much they need the work, and how much they get paid anyway. Doctors get paid quite a bit for their normal hours. There is a shortage of them (on account of us not paying to train enough of them...

Didn't someone just propose that unmarried partners should now get the same legal rights as married ones? Which would rather knock over the contract bit, it would become irrelevant. I seem to remember that once upon a time in this country you could get married just be announcing it, and get...

as far as the fast trip is concerned the B10 is comparable to the c6. Trip current is a multiplier of the rated current, so the less sensitive lower rated one is similar to the more sensitive 10A. So choice would depend on whether you want nominl 10A load circuit, or a 6A one.

Oh I don't know, give it 100 years and se what happens.....

hmm, something funny here, I used to listen to radio 4 in bed when I was 8. Great for getting up to.

Just shows the futility of trying to buck the market. Don't allow Iraqis to use their new currency abroad?

Now assuming the statistics are in fact correct, and your other point about mm not being socially acceptable is also true, perhaps you should start re-thinking which of those guys has been lying to you?
