📰 The latest news!

And so it begins - the question is, how many before they decide that they need dealing with.

Sixty eight people are going to die on the UK’s roads today in road traffic accidents. And tomorrow. And every day of the year.

So how many?

Going by cars, infinite.

3 year olds don’t tend to be wandering in the middle of the road

Is Liverpool losing its heritage status really surprising?
Looking at what has been built on the waterfront since the award was given seems pretty awful to an outsider like me.
Stand back and wait for the flak!

Lovely stuff. Actually an occasion where it is good to see “Tommy Robinson” on the news.

Welcome to law-abiding civilisation you lying cunt.

They do in built up areas with parked cars on either side. If a three year old is on the public highway in any capacity, they’re more vulnerable to cars than scooters

Road safety is something I’ve had an unwanted interest in for more than twenty years.

My sister was dragged 30 feet up Burgess Road when a wing mirror dragged her off a traffic island at 45mph at the age of eleven.

E-Scooter is never doing that.

No, you are right but as a rule pedestrians and cars don’t share the same space. Pedestrians and scooters do

Worst way to go imo

Imagine yourself being found dead on the bog wanking to dubious material.

What are your family going to say when they find you hunched over the visage of the EU flag? :wink: x

Have I missed a trick, or haven’t I been paying attention?

The Bishop of Winchester has “resigned”, after being at a retreat or something similar for a period well in excess of 6 week.
He was facing a vote of no confidence raised by some clergy and members of the congregation.

In the lead up to this, I have heard stories of him sacking loads of clergy, and following a policy of closing churches.

He was, apparently much maligned if not hated by many of those who came into contact with him, either professionally or personally.

There is doubt over the fact that he was ever again ordained properly, his main qualification being, I think, he went to Eton.

Very similar to the case of Ian Paisley many years ago, who defended charges of not being properly ordained by declaring, quite rightly, that he was ordained by his father; some time later it came to light his father had ordained himself.

He has never been a parish priest, and seems to have been appointed as the 5th most senior bishop in the land with virtually no experience or appropriate qualifications.

I have had discussions about this with two sets of friends now, but when you start digging there seems to be nothing to find.

Even the BBC did not seem to sent someone digging for C of E cover ups.

The whole story seems to have been thoroughly swept under the carpet.

So, he did this man get this far up the ladder (a political appointment?) and hold the position for 10 years, developing an aura of hatred and misery throughout his large parish?

Where is the modern day Deep Throat equivalent, and is there anyone comparable to Woodward and Bernstein out there?

No apologies for the length of this, but after discussions about it, and not being able to find very much at all about it, I got very wound up.

Would it be possible to submit myself as a candidate for the position? It seems I am lacking just one attribute possessed by the previous incumbent, i.e. I didn’t go to Eton.

I have had a look at Deep Throat and if that’s what the Bishop was banging away at for 6 weeks then fair play to the old fucker.
