She's got no chance of a referendum - she herself at the time, stated the 2014 referndum was " once in a generation" . Boris will tell her to go and f*** herself

"Chose his parents" ? If that's possible then maybe you're just pissed off because you made a poor choice.

Posted in: Mother dies, 7-year-old daughter injured in leap from building See in context
The mother must have been going throught utter mental torment to do such a terrible thing - clearly the balance of her mind was deranged.
I think at least, some compassion is warranted but it seems to be in short supply in the previous comments

Posted in: Smoking diners to take it outside as Tokyo ban kicks in See in context
One of the things I liked best about Japan when I visited was that restaurants [ in Osaka anyway] had a section for the smokers and a section for the non smokers - seems a bit more civilised and reasonable than the total ban we have in the UK - after all non smokers do benefit from tobacco taxes.

Posted in: Eagles plan massive 'Hotel California' performances on tour See in context
I saw the Eagles in '77 on the "Hotel California" tour - only cost £2 for the ticket. They were excellent but even then they were a bit dated with the arrival of punk.
I can't imagine why anyone would pay a fortune to see one of them and a bunch of session men in 2020

Posted in: Queen gets standing ovation as Irish trip nears end See in context
Most Irish I know pity Britons these days. Things have changed.
Nonsense - the Irish economy is in utter ruins and they've even had to borrow money from we Brits as well as the EU - if it had been up to me they'd have got nothing.

it's a kind of act they like to put on, ......arrogance long associated with being British.
We British can't be blamed for feeling superior - what other country in the world could attract 2 billion viewers for a wedding

Posted in: Nara schoolgirl arrested for drug possession See in context
so sorry fleetwood, if you are a drug addict, do not be surprised if your OWN KIDS or GRANDKIDS rat you out, narc on you and let you clean in behind bars.
I know my kids tried drugs [just like I did when I was young] but I didn't call in the Drug Police to ruin their lives and sure enough they got past that phase and have gone on to be very successful both academically and professionally.
But if you want to run squealing to the woodentops the first time one of your kids does something you don't like by all means do so.
Loyalty to your own is more important than any stupid law.

No way would I rat on one of my kids - no matter what they'd done or to whom they'd done it,

Peeping progresses to groping and that can eventually progress to assault/murder. Of course, not every guy trying to grab an upskirt snap is going to assault someone, but these kinds of crimes can progress to much more severe stuff if the perps aren't caught. Usually when the more minor crime becomes less satisfying.
Where is the evidence for this assertion?

Posted in: Texan declared innocent after 30 years in prison See in context
Looks like much-maligned Texas is far more "progressive" than ppl realize.
I never thought I'd see the words "Texas" and "progressive" in the same sentence.
I wonder how they compensate all the innocent people they execute?

I met him in a music shop in his home town a few years ago - we argued about the chords for "Stuck in The Middle" I'm sure he wasn't playing it right.

She should step down and let the young couple take over. Nobody will mind, even Charles, I'm sure.
