FORUM (examples as not yet up to speed)
A0001. Andy Burnham says that if asylum seekers arrive by boat and commit crimes they will be deported. Surely entering the country by small boat without paperwork etc is already a crime so they should be deported? Oh no, give them a booklet they won't read about British norms of behaviour that'll stop them offending! Sure it will.
B0001. E-bikes in the news for injuring people. It will happen in Torbay soon if these modified bikes and scooters are not removed from existence. They are mostly illegal so easily spotted. Now non-electric copycat black bikes are being ridden around by young teenagers. About 14 years old I would say. Practising wheelies on public walkways trying to emulate older nuisances. Someone's going to get hurt really badly soon!!!!!
C0001. After what Megan and Harry have said about their families and Britain how can they even consider coming back to live? I hope we give them the reception they deserve. Send them to Coventry? Not literally but give them the cold shoulder at least. Just think about the costs involved? As I was reminded recently, if in doubt revisit the Oprah interview.
D0001 RIP Dolly Parton. I thought she was a great person in all aspects of her life. Sorely missed.
E0001. Disturbances in Dover then Portsmouth. Perhaps they're actioning the views of the helpless 'silent majority' who don`t condone violence??? However, both groups have the same fears. One of the biggest chat topics I know. Along with stories of the hapless functioning and service, either in person or online, but mostly not functioning, NHS. These, I feel, are the two main concerns of older people. Oh! as well as how to survive on a basic State Pension? Mmmm, plus, why are there so many people on Benefits? It appears, but is it true, that many get more money than Pensioners but have never paid in so much? Etc!
