Whether she knew the facts, in which case she is lying or she didn't because she is incompetent, the end result is the same.......she should resign.

Re: Windrush Ooh Aah

Fact is, at the beginning of the week Rudd denied there were targets even though a memo already existed somewhere within her department stating the contrary. A couple of days later she acknowledged that there were 'regional' targets but not national targets.Now 4 days later she is apologising and ac...

Re: Windrush Ooh Aah

Compensation should only be apportioned where appropriate and where there is evidence of financial loss, not just dished out....I can't really see a problem with that can you? And yes I agree the proof is in the pudding and I sincerely hope the Government gets this right. There are other types of l...

Re: They just dont want our money

A fair few of us were dumped by Barclays a while back when they decided we didn't have enough money and Bank of Cyprus (UK) was the best option, however there are a few issues they insist that they're 'working to resolve'! Despite being one of those that were dumped by Barclays a couple of years ag...

Re: Tourists Fear Syria Fallout

Hudswell, You really should get over yourself.

In addition, whilst some of my posts may not be as serious as...

Re: Airlines warned over danger from possible airstrikes on Syria

Termites Dream, I stand to be corrected, but I thought the main news channels were reporting the evacuation of the majority of residents (rebels and civilians) from Douma before the chemical weapon attack. TM will not do anything unilaterally. I agree about the usefulness of a missile attack in the ...

All you have to consider is who would benefit from a continued USA/UK/European presence and intervention in the theatre of war in Syria, especially when you consider that it was only a couple of weeks ago that Trump had announced he wanted to pull out al...

Re: Airlines warned over danger from possible airstrikes on Syria

The photos of the victims of the chemical attack were so distressing to watch, I cannot for the life of me see what Assad hopes to achieve, truly terrible. It's all worrying but this maniac has to be stopped somehow. Douma was already in the hands of Assad, so logic makes me ask myself why would he...

Why though? If they do that they get no profit. If they find a different postal service, they get more profit. I know what I would do under those circumstances. Also, bear in mind that WE pay for the postal service, so if there is another service that is better but more expensive, it will be us tha...

Re: Attempted murder of russians in Salisbury

Buffoon, maybe not, but loose mouthed, not the type of person we would want to represent us as a prime minister. I wouldn't go as far as to call him a liar, though.

Re: Rental Property & Communal Charges

It all depends upon what is written into your tenancy agreement. All options within that agreement are possible. Therefore before entering into a tenancy agreement read the small print to avoid nasty surprises later on.

Skimmers on Swimming Pools Query

Can some of the experts out there advise me whether the valves to the skimmers regulating flow into the pump should ever be closed to 50%. We have just had to replace the bearings on our pump and I was wondering if the fact that the pump might be under a too high load due to this half closure.

Re: What a terrible situation in Gaza - again!

Jimgward, In some circles by posting as such you would be called an anti-semite as all criticism of Israel is designated by some as such. In my opinion, you are not anti-semitic for posting as you have. This is how Jeremy Corbin and some members of the labour party come to be classed as anti-semitic...
