I have read that some billionaires have raised 600 million dollars in 24 hours to help rebuild Notre Dame, I find that so disgusting that a wealthy institution like the church can benefit from that much money, when I think how many starving children this could feed and how much it could help towards cleaning up the plastic etc from this planet, I have no doubt that some of them got rich on the backs of the oil industry from which plastic is made, they probably think it is going to buy them a better place in heaven when they die. sad how they can give away part of their fortunes to already rich institutions but not to the people that need it, but then I suppose we must keep the clergy in the lifestyle it's used to.

Can anybody tell me in all honesty just what is going on with Brexit, it seems to me that our elected representatives  are behaving like a bunch of spoilt brats who can't have their own way, and the leader of them is the worst of all. I for one cannot understand why she is so determined to get her "deal" passed when nobody else wants it, and that includes the EU, it makes me wonder if she has something to gain from it personally , if so what ?  I would have thought if her deal is so good why not go on the Television etc and explain in simple terms (for us thickies) just what we have to gain from it and then give us another referendum on whether or not we wish to leave with her deal or with no deal (it's no good constantly asking the spoilt brats, they can't seem to agree on what day it is)  While we are on the subject of the brats some one needs to remind them that they are the elected representatives of the people,   and when they are in parliament it is their d...

I have just been reading about how one in four teachers in the UK say they experience physical violence from their pupils at least once a week, and many say that poor behaviour is making them want to leave the profession, this is such a shame, they go into teaching to try to help kids not to get abuse from them, surely this is all down to lack of discipline, starting in the home, one of the EU's laws that started out with good intentions is no longer being able to discipline children, All kids will push and push to see how far they can go and if you can no longer discipline them then what have they got to be afraid of , being the oldest of 10 kids my parents must have had the patience of saints, my Father never ever smacked us it was my Mother who saw to that side of things, and believe you me if we got a smack we deserved it, the same in school if we cot the cane or strap again it was because we deserved it, because of the discipline and the teaching we grew up knowing what respec...

I see a police driver who knocked a boy off of a scooter he had just stolen could face charges of misconduct, the question is WHY? people seem to forget these little toe rags should not be committing the offence in the 1st place, but as usual it is easier to blame everybody else except the toe rags and their parents. Now Wales has decided to stop parents from punishing their children, does it not occur to anybody that it's because of lack of discipline that these kids are like it, so because once again the do-gooders get their own way and get these ludicrous laws introduced every body else has to suffer the consequences, with police having to waste their time cleaning up the mess that the parents should have been stopping in the 1st place, but because of these stupid laws the police, teachers and most of all parents are now afraid to discipline their kids because of fear of being prosecuted. Nobody wants to see children beaten or abused but a good sharp smack to the backside never ...
