Ian McCulloch IS a genius. Just listen to Echo and the Bunnymen in their prime. I don't see the point of this sneery, snotty aticle. Fair enough, report that he left Japan 'without permission' (oh, how very dare he) and the cancelled gigs, but no need for the attitude

My husband was given whale meat for his school dinners and he says it was disgusting, in fact no one liked it.

I know it's good to be a little childish sometimes, but in these circumstances it is too much for me to try and resist the urge to tell these immature types to grow up and get a life.

shaped like an old-fashioned British telephone booth

Er, no it isn't. It looks like an old police box.

As for Capaldi, he is a brilliant Doctor and I will miss him dearly. The new episode today was a cracker, proper old school Who, and Bill is a promising companion.

This doctor is absolutely right but, I'm sad to say, this a global problem. It would help if Japan had a proper primary care system, with everyone having at least a dedicated GP, rather than his higgledy piggledy mash up that is used now. Consistency in care is key to good quality and cost effective health care.

The complex and overly expensive Japanese funeral is becoming obsolete. I don't want a funeral, I'd rather any money be spent on a good piss up at the wake for my family and friends. Burn me on a so called unlucky day - what does it matter when you are dead.

He had been drinking? Not to drunk to hold the camera up her skirt though.

The land of fetishising children, weird porn and penis shrines doesn't like looking at vaginas. Double standards.

Why don't eye tests in Japan routinely check for glaucoma? I have to go to an ophthalmologist for that, which is silly.

These people are scum. They should never be allowed to have custody of their children again.

Cram school culture is abhorrent. Let children enjoy being children.

The wrong day for this sycophantic article.

Disgusting. UA's mealy mouthed statement just shows the utter contempt they have for their passengers. Not even an apology.

Allow immigration Japan, you are doomed without it.

Spot on. You need immigrants - either accept non-Japanese to your society or go the same way as the dodo.

How on earth do they screen applicants to the police force. The J-force is a joke to many people.

Animals. Throw away the key.

Another university? The last thing this country needs, with it's diluted courses and plunging population. I agree, they need properly trained paramedics.

This is the sort of stuff hormonal teenage girls think about. Coming from adult women is rather sad and pathetic.

Horrific. I hope the teachers get done for assault. The child may be physically unharmed but psychological injury doesn't count, it seems.

A sensible step.

Marriage has to evolve to stay relevant, it's pretty much still stuck in the 1950's here. Marriage rates are dropping in many industrialised countries, along with the birth rates. The world is changing, Japan needs to accept that.

Don't be silly Nicola. If Scots want independence good luck to them, but you are going to be a tadpole in an ocean of sharks.

Politicians who don't like being challenged are unfit to hold office.

Meanwhile, the UK government is happy to host arms fairs and sell weapons to dictatorships.

The old "I was drunk" excuse. Saitama is the crime capital of Japan.

Another sex offender on the streets.

I have been refused entry to restaurants (after my husband or friends had gone in first and were welcomed), beauty salons and physically pushed out the door of a hairdressers when I went in to enquire about a haircut. Many people in this country have serious issues. God help any Olympic visitors, they are in for a rude awakening.

We're not scared, in London we just laugh at the stupidity. For anyone visiting the UK I suggest you never wear these masks, it's not the done thing and rather rude. Also, try going into a bank, post office or many other public buildings like that and you can be refused entry. When in Rome etc. etc.

Brexit has caused a massive rift in the UK - there is more mistrust, disharmony, hate and argument then we've had for many generations. It is also a real threat to the Union. Yet May talks rubbish about as all being together and how good this all is for the UK, how she can say this with a straight face I do not know.

It used to be said that the United States and England are only separated by a common language.

Grrrrrr. If you mean the UK say it; the UK, England, Great Britain are different things and not interchangeable.
