I read the news today oh boy! Page 1,481

What are you complaining about do you, think Moffatt should be allowed to fire performers because they're Asian.

One of my childhood heroes is 75...happy birthday Terence Hill!

This is beyond stupid.

1.) All parents "emotionally abuse" their children to one degree or another. We are not perfect, people get tired and shout at their kids. Emotional abuse. How can you possibly start to legislate for fact and degree?

2.) There is already a category of child protection for "at risk of emotional harm". Which covers it.

3.) I doubt there are very few cases of severe emotional abuse that do not also contain some of the traditional factors associated with neglect etc.

Jennie says no. Angry

Emotional harm yes, but I think it's a much bigger and more complex area.

I'm not sure legislation is the route to go down, it's usually a pneumatic sledgehammer to crack a peanut.

But if what they're referring to is more like kids being caught between malignant parents in a divorce, or constant bullying and undermining then that stuff can leave scars to.

Some sadists really can't be bothered with physical violence and mental violence will do even better.

The government is investigating the Mayor of Tower Hamlets and the council's sizeable donations to Bangladeshi and Somali Groups after a Panorama expose revealed the innate dodginess of bloody foreigns.

He was an independent who won with 13 percent of the vote.

If the turn out was at a guess 50 percent, then he won with 6 percent of the electorate voting for him.

That's too pitiful even for rigging.

He looks like an opportunist crook, but so would anybody else in his position.

And I hope it's a salutory lesson to those fools who oppose voting.

Seemingly, the Swissers, who haven't fought a war for 150 years, have more tanks than the UK.

Winning by 13% is nothing to be sneezed at. Look at our coalition government, they won by far less.

There have been rumours of vote rigging in Asian populated constituencies for decades - hell, George Galloway even cashed in on it - and now finally, these stories are coming to light.

By not treating it as a big deal or just a one off, I think you are purposefully denying it's importance as a way of PC pandering in an effort to smooth race relations - nothing to see here, move along quickly.

But the more these kind of things are smoothed over in the name 'cultural sensitivity', the more the critics of integration and a multi-cultural Britain become incensed.

Until you wake up one day and find that UKIP are gaining massive footholds throughout the country and you say 'duh, why is this happening?'.

Just as Jimmy Savile revealed the innate perviness of white British men. Particularly those from Yorkshire. Keep your kids locked up.

That being said, you have alerted me to what looks like an interesting documentary about one individual's wrong doing. I shall certainly watch it at some stage.

I shall assume you misread me, he won %13 of the vote.

So he won legitmately and made some bad, selfish decisions. Which has caught the attention of the press and various authorities who will over turn his decisions.

Which puts me in interesting position that;

1 I don't like anyone playing parish pump with millions of pounds and this will f**k over people with real need.

2 He's legitimately elected and in any legitimate election you're entitled to make decisions, which others may not like.

Our conservative government is doing the same thing with everything from NHS services, to schools. It's just that we're used to thinking of the wankers they help as being naturally entitled.

Italian police have arrested two men who were allegedly trying to deposit trillions of euros in fake bonds in the Vatican bank.

That's quite a wedge.

nb reading about Lufhur Rahman he reminds me of a quote I read about another politician who got fired.

You get caught stealing small change, because it rattles, bank notes don't.

Lufhar is a dubious fellow and a clever politician like most successful ones. He invited gay pride in whilst keeping the fundies sweet.

Kinda what Bozza does but on a smaller scale.

Don't f**k with the Swiss:

That's just it, I don't think he was legitimately elected. If communities from aboard can bring over honour killings, FGM, child sacrifice, feet binding, gender specific abortions, etc. - they can also bring over their version of corrupted democracy and vote rigging.

Isn't Bradford in Yorkshire? Now what do I remember reading about child sexual exploitation in Bradford recently? I'm sure Jack Straw had something to say about it.
