- on Tax adjustments will make 25 million households better off 1 minute agoNotice how almost all comments here are whining that the money is not enough? Everyone wants the government to spend more and collect less, then are astonished when we go bankrupt.
- on Patrick Cockburn: A crucial US ally against Middle East terrorism or a safe haven for al-Qa'ida? 9 hours ago"Any supposed relaxation of state authority after Mr Saleh has stepped down will not make much difference because of the longstanding weakness of the government."
Oh, good. We can keep on taking them out, then.
- Best news I've heard in some time. Who says they only print bad news?
- on Florida pastor burns Koran in 'execution' 9 hours agoWhat a cretin. He and the Taliban seem to be woven from the same cloth
- I don't suppose any of the Taliban will be investigated, will they?
- on Christina Patterson: Are we really all middle class now? 9 hours ago"When I meet people who are upper-middle class, I start worrying about cutlery."
Me too. I worry that they'll nick it.
- on BBC spent �700,000 on EastEnders episode 9 hours agoSo? What is the point of this story?
That the Beeb is doing a good job of lowering costs and spent a small amount of extra money on the 25th anniversary of the most popular TV show in Britain?
That the Beeb can't lower costs fast enough to keep up with its falling audience?
That trashy shows are cheaper to produce on tape than live?
That dumbing down even more won't save money or grow audience, since it is not possible to produce a show that is much more dumbed-down than East Enders?
Or is it just about NAO issuing a report so dull, it is hard to write a about?
- on Tough new mortgage rules relaxed 21 hours ago"We will seek the right balance between protection for consumers, sustainability of the market and consumer choice."
Translation: we're the government - we're here to help you, because we know more about what you should do with your money than you do.
