Grauniad story: http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2012...-company-sinks Not surprised at those prices - £95 a ticket for a trip up a scummy stinking ex-industrial river aka Lee. So I'm not surprised that the water taxi's gone bust. But I wonder who was running the company and who the drivers were? I bet they were greedy speculators out for a quick buck and were not river-folk. Could it by chance be one of the Heathrow - Central London taxi drivers on his summer hols? :-)) -- Brian "Fight like the Devil, die like a gentleman." |

Then came the slump and then even more borrowing from our "closest allies" to finance our standing alone early on against Hitler in WW2 - again only recently paid off. Any politician who wants to get Our "closest allies" who made us repay every penny we owned them and who meanwhile were forking out for the rebuilding of former nazi germany.

Should I also become a butcher too because I eat meat? I think if you did a poll most people in the UK would be quite happy to see someone like Ian Huntley or Fred West swing. B2003 |

This desire for vengeance ? Because without counseling and help of some kind, things are not going to get any better you know. And all you can ever realistically hope to achieve is to make those around you equally miserable. Until that is, they succeed in breaking the door down and escaping. michael adams .... B2003 |

A desire to see proper justice done against someone who, for example, murdered 2 little girls ITYF is pretty normal. Its hand wringing feminised bleeding hearts like you who would see even the most depraved killers treated with respect who have the deep seated psychological issues but you dress up your abnormality as "liberalism" to give it some sort of bogus credibility. You only think you have the majority view because people of your persuation tend to gravite towards fluffy careers such as the media which then expounds it as the prevailing zeitgiest. It isn't.
