Err, According to the BBC "Force India revealed their livery for the new season on Wednesday, but used a 2014 car to display it."

A sneaky speeding crackdown is set to catch motorists out on the M42 and M6 in Coventry and Warwickshire. Drivers could soon be booked for going just over the 70 mph limit. The threat comes from "stealth cameras" which were introduced to enforce variable speed limits on “Smart Motorways”. However it has now been disclosed that these cameras may be used to strictly enforce the 70mph speed limit during non variable limit hours. The West Midlands has two sections of Smart Motorways; the M42 to the West and the M6 to the North of Coventry. Also sometimes called “Managed Motorways”, the hard shoulder is opened as an extra lane to ease congestion at peak hours. Overhead gantries display variable speed limits, supposedly to keep the traffic flowing as efficiently as possible. Up until now the cameras have been switched off at quieter times,when no variable speed limits are in force. But that's all set to change .. This misuse of these types of cameras has already happened before, in Kent… The first victims of the “stealth cameras” (also called Hadecs3) were on a section of the M25. 668 motorists were caught in the first three months after they were switched on. Of those, 520 drivers and riders received tickets where the limit was set at exactly 70mph. Now this totalitarian crackdown is set to be rolled out in the near future on the M42 and M6... So much for the Freedom Bill that was introduced by the Government in 2012! If you’re driving in these areas any time soon, watch out.

Don't forget Kate Sheppard the New Zealand lady who started the ball rolling re getting the Vote for women. Mind you I am not sure that was the best idea in the world.

At last we have given them a good smashing , I enjoy beating Wenger more than any other manager in the P.L. just a shame it's not everytime we play them, they have so much luck. Love the picture of Wenger:lol: Over here we have to put up with every Chelsea, Man City, Man Utd and Arsenal games all covered by their own TV stations. Can't wait to hear them whilst I watch it later although to be fair Utd have the most biased coverage from their commentators.

Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson sparked an Internet supernova on Christmas Day when he took to Twitter to troll Christians. “On this day long ago, a child was born who, by age 30, would transform the world,” the “Cosmos” host tweeted Thursday. “Happy Birthday Isaac Newton b. Dec 25, 1642.” Tyson — long despised among religious conservatives — further incensed the faithful celebrating the birth of Jesus by tweeting: “Merry Christmas to all. A Pagan holiday (BC) becomes a Religious holiday (AD). Which then becomes a Shopping holiday (USA).” Tyson glossed over the date in yet another tweet: QUESTION: This year, what do all the world's Muslims and Jews call December 25th? ANSWER: Thursday :lol: [url]http://nypost.com/2014/12/26/astrophysicist-angers-religious-conservatives-with-christmas-tweet/[/url] .

Lefties, don't read the following as you won't like it even though the link is from the BBC. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-30585783 Mr Todenhoefer said he was struck by their brutal zeal, and the scale of their ambition to carry out "religious cleansing" and to expand their territory. "Terrible to feel that people can be enthusiastic about killing hundreds of millions of people" "There is an enthusiasm that I've never seen before in warzones," he said. "They are so confident, so sure of themselves. At the beginning of this year, few people knew of IS. But now they have conquered an area the size of the UK. This is a one per cent movement with the power of a nuclear bomb or a tsunami." Don't forget how they treat any non IS women they kidnap as well.

The story goes that the Taliban stole some secret equipment and sold it to the Chinese who were trying to hide it in plain site by using a commercial airliner.They also thought the U.S. wouldn't think that they ( Chinese ) would try that option. Yes it is very possible to remote control a suitably modified aircraft especially IF the pilots are "indisposed". Remember also that aircraft have and extensively use the "autopilot" ( basically remote control ) in fact some airlines insist on its use as much as possible hence the concern that pilots are not getting enough actual "hands on" flying experience. As for believing this whole MH370 story ? Well the more I read the more I am now unsure about what really happened but I do think that us plebs will perhaps never end up knowing the full truth.

I can't imagine that any of the eccentric folk on here would do this, or would YOU ???

A retired engineer has had a speeding ticket reversed after he proved that speed camera road markings in his village were wrong. Wayne Erasmus used a tape measure to prove that the white lines painted on the road were mis-spaced by 3 inches each... It meant that the camera showed him driving at 36mph, when he was actually only travelling at 30mph. The Gatso on the A4138 in Hendy, near Llanelli, has been in place for 12 years so the number of motorists with questionable convictions and speeding tickets from the camera must surely be enormous! Carmarthenshire Council has now confirmed the lines were indeed inaccurate, but it's not yet clear whether drivers who have received tickets on the camera will be refunded their fines and points. One man, David Davies, who was caught on the camera doing 35mph in 2009 has vowed to challenge his 5 year old ticket in Court.

You lot are very lucky that you even have a choice. Here it is Sky or nothing, well we can get something called "Freeview" but you still need a decoder box and only get 15 channels or so. Free to air TV isn't very good, 4 channels if I remember correctly, but it is totally free as we don't have to pay for a TV licence. To be fair to Sky they do supply two separate decoders so can watch different channels at the same time. I watch lots of sport whilst my wife watches all kinds of rubbish

Dear oh dear how stupid can you get ? This idiot must be near the top of the list. See picture. http://img.s-msn.com/tenant/amp/entityid/BBgSLA7.img?h=1080&w=1920&m=6&q=60&o=f&l=f Waikato police were dumbfounded when they came across an Irish tourist driving along a busy, winding Coromandel highway with a kayak tied crossways on the roof of his car. "Regardless that this is a busy, winding rural road already subject to busier than usual traffic flows over the summer, the driver was unrepentant telling the officer who stopped him that if he secured the kayak longways, as he is supposed to, it would cause damage to the roof of his car," she said. http://www.msn.com/en-nz/news/national/kayak-tied-to-car-cause-for-concern/ar-BBgS2fI

An elderly relative (82) of my wife's has been "dumped" in some care home because his wife (76) didn't want him "under her feet" at home and didn't want to take him with her when she goes out in their car. She refused an invite to be taken to visit him the other day because she had the decorators in doing up a couple of rooms. Before that she had some other reasons as well meaning she has hardly visited him. The sister of the old chap and 2 others did go and they were there just over 4 hours. In that time a carer popped in for nearly a minute to give him a few sips of water. No one else on staff came in and checked up on his bed sores that he has because no-one turns him over now and then. I won't post the name of this establishment to protect SaintsWeb as well as myself but it is in Southern England between Bournemouth and Brighton. So be good to those who will be the ones dumping you in a rest home so that they hopefully choose a good one and not just a cheap one just so they can get more of your money when you die.

Well said V W. I think that the word "torture" is too emotive for some people so perhaps it should be substituted with "vigorous questioning" ? Some people seem to think that they live in a dream world where no evil will happen to them if they bury their heads in the sand. Alas this doesn't work as some really nasty evil bas*ards HATE everyone who doesn't follow their perverted views and so have declared war on the decent people. War isn't very conducive to your health and no-one in their right mind wants one but if you do go to war you have to do anything and everything, no matter how nasty, you can to smash the other side. If you don't then your enemy will certainly do it to you. History shows those who want to see it - wimps never win and always end up suffering. I don't want wimps trying to defend me. .

Here is an "interesting" viewpoint and no I didn't write it. In the OPINION of the writer: "The best way for cricket to respect the sad death of Phillip Hughes may be not a minute's silence, but a lifetime's silence. By all accounts Hughes was a quiet country lad, who did not brag. On the day of Hughes' funeral, cricket's sledgers, and that includes Australian captain Michael Clarke, may like to reflect on the vile abuse that they have used to ram home bowling that often bordered on assault". http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/opinion/63759297/Reason-Hughes-death-highlights-hypocrisy .

I have read somewhere that "there is a difference between what many/most people might think and (UK) government policy,following the Report of the Stephen Lawrence Inquiry in 1999, which defined a racist incident as "any incident which is perceived to be racist by the victim or any other person." Could this mean that anyone with a grudge against you could therefore "perceive" anything you say as being racist or could claim to be offended even if they hear you talking to someone other than them. Most people have banter between mates that they wouldn't dream of using against someone they didn't know very well but it appears to me that you could still get into serious trouble. A very slippery *path IF true. *( I substituted my original word in case someone was offended even though I wasn't intending too ).

Beware all of you that are talking realistic sense - the happy clappers will be along very soon and accuse you of being bedwetters. :D

The Westminster paedophile conspricy
Saint in Paradise replied to CHAPEL END CHARLIE's topic in The Lounge
Buckingham Palace could become the centre of a police investigation after a man reportedly claimed he had been groomed for sex by a "pedophile ring" there in the 1970s. The unnamed man, then aged 16, became the victim of a high-profile ring of abusers including MPs, British media has reported. The alleged abuse occurred while he was working in the palace kitchens. The matter was previously raised soon after the alleged abuse occurred, when the boy's mother wrote to late MP Geoffrey Dickens asking for his assistance. Mr Dickens raised the matter with the Home Secretary but was told it would not be "practical" to investigate at the time. http://www.msn.com/en-nz/news/world/teen-victimised-by-buckingham-palace-abuse-ring/ar-BBg9UBF
