The ASA should grow some balls.

I'm sure some people are professionals at finding offence in almost anything these days.

This poster has been banned.

I mean there must have been thousands of complaints.

Oh Noes

However, the ASA received 33 complaints that the ads were unsuitable to be seen by children, were offensive and condoned or encouraged antisocial behaviour.

Weapon of mass destruction

Come on. Own up whoever made this.

About time too.

At last the BBC is being forced into the real world.

The BBC was facing revolt from thousands of staff today after taking an axe to its final-salary pension scheme.

Many staff will be worse off in retirement under the proposals as the corporation looks to counteract a £2 billion deficit in its pension fund.

Especially if it could affect this insufferable Twat.

But then I expect he's safe.

From the comments:

"Preston thinks he is the Queen Mother of broadcasting!"

Police fail

I must obey the Righteous.

And I will use the advice printed on the packet below.

The thugs are at it still.

The Message still doesn't seem to be getting through to the plod that:

It is not illegal to take photographs in a public place.

Authoritarian cunts. How can they expect us to abide by the law when they make it up as they go along.

UPDATE:

The usual weasel words.

The Metropolitan police has issued a statement to the British Journal of Photography - a spokeswoman said:

"It is clearly not the intention of the MPS to prevent people from taking photographs, although, as the public would expect, officers will remain vigilant, particularly in crowded public places. Any allegations or complaints about police treatment of photographers are taken very seriously by the MPS."

She adds: "Anyone who is unhappy with the actions of individual police officers can make a formal complaint, which will be thoroughly investigated. Although at this time we have not received a complaint about this incident and no allegations of crime have been made, we will investigate the circumstances. Our officers do receive guidance around the issue of photography through briefings and internal communications and we continue to drive this work forward.

Yes. Get on yer bloody bike.

I read and listened to the MSM about the latest wheeze to get people in jobs by actually looking for work where there is actually  work with some interest.

I was brought up with the philosophy that you find the work. The work doesn't find you. I can see how those raised in the North of the country had it easy, in the fact that most of the major manufacturing industries were based there.

In the south it was always different. We didn't have huge manufacturing industries (I'm talking about south of the Watford gap here), recruiting in the thousands, just small companies trying to grow.

To get to the point. My family have always travelled a fair distance to work. No nipping in to the factory five minutes down the road.

My wife commuted into the smoke for many years before we started a family. She usually left the house before 0800 and returned not before 1900.

The Eldest daughter has moved to London in order to better her self. (An uphill struggle given London property prices.

The second daughter has to commute to work via the M25. Not for the faint hearted in the Rush hour

The son has moved to the North east in order to get a job in the degree that he obtained.

Me. I just travelled the world for 43 years.
