bridge too far

What if the walls are papered? Wallpaper is a content, is it not?

They're not already (the Tories that is)

But they're not top - they're 3rd!

It's good, isn't it

I think allegations first surfaced decades ago. Read the link that The Cat posted at #116. It says a lot.

They often did but were told to go away. Hmmmm tough one - who to believe? A child from an institutional home or a politician / police officer / priest / scoutmaster / teacher / celebrity?

Nah - it's Burnham in Buckinghamshire. I saw the match advertised but I didn't tell Mr TF because I didn't want to be dragged along to watch that shower of ****e i.e. Poopey

That was G Brown's argument for selling the gold, wasn't it?

Wasn't G Brown pilloried for selling off gold on the cheap?

Eurostar to Paris is brilliant!

Loved reading that link Sue - thanks for posting it.

Retired but occupied a lot of the time being a grandmother so only post on here between children

How much do we actually know? http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2015/07/30/calais-migrant-crisis-explained-questions-quiz_n_7904772.html

You're right of course. How silly of me to forget that the Daily Mail is bigoted

1. In case you hadn't noticed, the link was to the Daily Mail - that well known bastion of left-wing propaganda. 2. Maybe the poster read the same (copious number) of articles on the subject as I did?

Film - tough but between Singing in the Rain, Chicago and Lawrence of Arabia Book - Sarum by Edward Rutherfurd or Ragged Trousered Philanthropist by Robert Tressell I'll have to die slowly!

But you just know IDS will deny / refuse to co-operate in the same way as he has resisted calls to state the number of benefits claimants who have died as a result of sanctions. I've lost count of the number of times he's been ordered to give out this information and he has prevaricated and downright refused. The Office for National Statistics has on many occasions criticised him for playing fast and loose with statistics. The man is a monster.

1. They're not being mopped up though, are they 2. The loopholes aren't being closed (you know the legal avoidance ones) like this https://home.38degrees.org.uk/2015/02/19/close-the-mayfair-tax-loophole/

Since Michael Gove was so in love with the Swedish system, it is to be hoped that his successor learns some of the lessons from this. I won't hold my breath though ...

And the bond between a father and child is equally important, of course.

Most children will have their lives enhanced by a nursery environment. The vulnerable ones don't just come from 'half-baked' parents - cases of physical, mental and sexual abuse are just as likely in your comfortable, two parent Kellogg's families you know, and nurseries are good at spotting this. My grandchildren have all benefited enormously from going to nursery school. They have (and two still are) learning valuable social skills and the transition into infant school has been seamless. Dragging my poor SiL into it again, he will tell of 5 year olds unable to wipe their backsides or to use cutlery. Dealing with this takes up valuable teaching time. He will tell you he can always tell which children have had the benefit of nursery education.

Many, many women, probably as many women as men, go out to work in order to contribute to the nation's wealth and well-being and to suggest that women only go to work to pay tax is disingenuous to say the least. Many (mainly women) simply can't afford to go out to work at the moment because of the high cost of childcare. Do you go to work solely to pay tax?
