your new lappy is called horace?????

the woman has lost it folks

Ahem. My first lappy was called Herman because he was German. His replacement is called H2.

When you set a PC or lappy up, you are asked to give it a name. It helps if you network with other PCs / lappys in your home and want to share files.

I’m not anti-police, these individual acts of thuggery bring the police into disrepute and this ‘enemy within’ is an enemy to proper policing.

Maybe the policeman in this case didn’t actually intend to cause injury but he certainly acted in way that showed that he cared little whether or not injury resulted. He probably does care now, as he faces the sack and probably criminal prosecution as well – and so he should.

Police are human. No amount of training can take the thug out of them if that’s what they are like.

I find police to be generally rude and often aggresive. And lots of them are overweight.

What that horrid policeman deserves now is a damn good smack in the mouth, one he’ll never forget.

He won’t get that.

The police get away with cold bloodied murder – just ask the families of Jean Charles Mendez and Blair Peach and many others.

What happened to Mr B and Mr C? :lol:

Sorry :lol:

An interesting question Panda. If the child benefit was cut from higher earning families and used for somthing worthwhile, say for instance in the health sector, then I would happily give it up. But it would probably be pooled into another section of benefits for scroungers who know how to work the system then no, I wouldn’t want to give it up.
I don’t think stopping child benefit would stop some people having kids. The type of people I pressume you are talking about have kids regardless, afterall the current benefits systems surely isn’t enough to bring children up on anyway is it?

Mr B and Mrs C ran off with each other – office scandal!

I actually think it should be means tested with the money saved put into education or care for the elderly.

I don’t think ppl like Mrs D who clearly does not need the money should be able to save it to send her kids to University – it’s unfair to poorer families who need to spend the money on their kids upbringing and can’t afford to send their kids to University. It’s just widening the gap.

Mr A’s political views where I work are often frowned upon but I think he makes sense about making ppl who have kids be more financially responsible for them. My family including extended family, only started a family when they could afford to do so. My parents waited four years so they could save for a house and make it comfortable and suitable for a child. This was the 60s – they had a stronger work ethic perhaps but more importantly, if they weren’t going to support their kids, who would? Not the state in those days.

Sadly these days that’s not the case – more and more kids are born to single mothers – some who have several kids by different men and the fathers are absent and do not support their kids. I know several families like this.

So it’s left to tax payers to pick up the bill and whilst that continues to be the case, these mothers aren’t going to stop having kids to get benefits, the fathers aren’t going to stick around or pay up and their is no incentive to work and provide for themselves and their family. Why work when you can get paid for doing nothing? Total benefits for some, with housing benefit can exceed what someone with a family earns in a year. Is that right?

Yes bringing up a child is more expensive then the benefits received and that is why you have so many kids still living in poverty – some mothers / fathers don’t care about their kids so long as their existence brings in more benefit money for drink, drugs and fags. Sad but true.

Perhaps if ppl used this place in the way it is intended – i.e. chat site not a dating site it would be avoided.

I wonder what Trading Standards would have to say… :P

I would but he has just been arrested for impersonating a chat site and being a pimp. :P

I spent several years working in social housing, you really do get complaints like these and far worse too :lol: :lol:

I worked for a housing association – a woman phoned up to complain that someone was stealing her pond water.

We thought about telling her that it was a local well known criminal called Eva Poration.
