    Why we are in Iraq.

    Joe, the size of the Saudi Oil deposits has been overplayed for several decades. They are the biggest producers of Oil, but that does not mean they have the biggest reserves. The US has one of, if not the largest, untapped Oil reserve so far found. It sits below the entire state of Colorado...

    The truth about 'Road Pricing'...

    The experience of other nations does not bear that out, it is easily possible for each ID card to have embedded in it a unique ID key, a 512 bit encrypted Hexadecimal computer generated one. Whilst I agree that if man can make, then man can break most types of security system. If a central...

    The truth about 'Road Pricing'...

    I think you will find it's called the Internet, a little invention of a chap called Tim Berners-Lee and used by about 2 billion people globally. Every government in the world has an Internet connection and it would be so simple for passport control stations in airports and other points of...

    The truth about 'Road Pricing'...

    Thank you Joe, you have actually just posted the way that many have proposed the ID card system should work.

    Ken Livingstone plans

    I think there is certainly an element of this going on, however it would be simpler to legislate against the use of private vehicles on certain roads at certain times of the day.

    Are people blind??? (Drivers Rant)

    It's about time a rear end was instantly prosecutable with 3 points and a £500 fine. Then perhaps people would take more care. I too have been hit from behind in cars I have owned, yet never once have I hit a vehicle in front of me. I will admit to coming close, but that was due to me not paying...

    The truth about 'Road Pricing'...

    And that argument is not born out by the economics of the problem either, And that is the opinion of the Government, Immigration groups, The Police and other Security Services and several economic think tanks.

    The truth about 'Road Pricing'...

    Hardly a rational explanation mega.. One possible outcome is no reason to bury your head in the sand. This is a demorcrasy, and so your comment is rather dictatorial. I don't like it so go away!! Very mature. If we didn't do something to fight crime because it might be abused by a minority at...

    Not the best thought-out ad?

    It's a very clever bit of advertising as it will make people discuss it, think about and thus remember it. Good luck to them.

    The truth about 'Road Pricing'...

    Ellal, if you have an ID card, whether mandatory to carry or not, certain crimes can be significantly reduced by their use. Take Debit/Credit card fraud, something like 60% of reported crime in the UK, according to Police figures last year, is of this type. If, when you present such a card, the...

    Ken Livingstone plans

    I have mixed feeling over Ken Livingston to be totally honest. I accept that he has been a man of his word, a very rare commodity in Politics, and made massive improvements to the public transport system in the capital. We have buses running 24/7 and underground trains that run about 18/19...

    The truth about 'Road Pricing'...

    Actually Masona the apology should come from me. Yes I did say that, but were I failed was in explaining the crime they should prevent. Obviously they will never prevent murder, bank robberies etc, but they would significantly reduce credit/debit card fraud, ID theft and certainly all the huge...

    New Business which way to go

    Andy, you could look at buying a Pub, or even a McDonalds or similar franchise, or perhaps a Snap-On franchise. Lets face facts here, the people that own and run McDonalds franchises do not do bust! Yes it's hard work, but it can make you a mint.

    WWII first V2 rocket

    I wonder if there are similar memorials for the first V1 and for the last V1 and V2 that hit London? Do you think the Japanese have memorials for the Atomic bombs or just for thier victims?

    The truth about 'Road Pricing'...

    I think your use of the word extreme is misleading, but I would agree I have become less patient with certain posters. I had a bad day yesterday and I think that showed in my posts. I was not meaning to get personal and none of my comments were meant in that way, they were more attempts to be...

    The truth about 'Road Pricing'...

    Hardly a cop out, I simply did not feel the comments you left earlier warranted a serious response. There are times when nothing is the best option. Why should I educate you, you have a brain don't you, may I suggest you put it in gear, forget the absurd statements of the liberal middle...

    The truth about 'Road Pricing'...

    Would you be trying to divert attention from yourself? Please do give it a rest, it is not something your very good at Tim. Further, your comment about posting style is a red herring. I can certainly assure you I am not Softus, or any other poster on this forum.
