If you are ever called up for jury service I sincerely hope that you don’t get a case of sexual assault or rape.

No need to worry jen, i will never be called up for that.

Is that because you have a criminal record?

The kiss would be inappropriate yes sexual assault i don’t think so, i think we should concentrate on the real issues here, like if actual sexual assault took place, sorry but yes you maybe offended by a kiss like that and may make you furious, but its on a whole different scale to sexual assault, and delving into that instead of concentrating on the major accusations would be pointless unless used to make a case strong enough perhaps. But over the years many groupies would offer a whole lot more than that, it was a different time to now. If the guy was alive there maybe a small point but as it stands not so, all this is getting so messy and how the hell the police are going to make head nor tale of it god knows, how many accusations are true, how many are fabricated, and how many are exaggerated, but they are almost going to have to build something of this case using whatever they can find, more due to the media and public outcry than for the benefit of those effected.
You have to be so careful these days people will cry “rape” when they havent the faintest idea of the effect that is going to have, or indeed how it can water down those genuine real very sad cases of possible life damaging emotional and mental harm. I wouldn’t want their job now for all the tea in china.

I think I sometimes really do lose the will to live. Moreso when I read toyfrogboy’s rubbish.

I read your post, jen :wink:

I don’t think you need evidence to convict anybody in this day and age.
It’s a thing the Labour Party introduced to offset the number of people that were being found ‘not guilty’ due to lack of evidence.

What a shocking story. :shock:

And to do it in a firm and decisive way, not caring for scoring media points or apologising and saying things like “I know it’s tough but it’s tough on all of us, we’re all in this together” when we’re blatantly not.

I can’t see anyone like that on the political horizon though :(

Agreed.

Jen

I agree with the point you make about there being no divisive line between policies.
For instance, none of the three main parties has a policy for opting out of the EU and yet there is a large groundswell of support throughout Europe for an end to the EU.
The only party I’ll ever vote for is one that will give a referendum on our EU membership.
Apart from that, as you say, none of the leading lights in politics has the charisma or ability to unite the voters behind them.
I just think we’re suffering as a country and urgently need somebody to take charge and make decisions (however unpopular those decisions might be).

I agree. I watched a documentary about our soldiers coming back from Afghanistan, to rotten (some of them on the zemth floor of a high-rise flats who have lost limbs) council flats/houses etc etc – surely the zillions would be better used to give them better housing, and more sufference pay than they are getting now which is pittance?! I could go on, and on, and be more specific, but I think you’ll know what I am on about.

Good point anc.

You know, we go from election to election knowing that whoever takes charge of this country won’t be up to the job and it kind of makes you wonder if there is actually a point to voting.

[Terry]

I know what you mean Jen and we already commemorate the end of the war as it is with Armistice Day.

Cameron needs to look as if he’s busy, but I think his advisors have got it wrong with this idea.
