    Who knows? But I loved the way he used to come in with a two by four and swing it around.
    What happens in General, stays in General.
    You know what they say about assumptions!

      With a little bit of luck the conclusion will be "nasty piece of work who likes guns is thankfully removed from the world". Even as a signed up hand-wringing liberal left winger I find it very hard to summon up the tiniest bit of sympathy for him.

        I don't disagree the world is probably better off without him, but what i'm more interested in is the lies from the police and planting evidence. I am expecting an 'open verdict'.

          Admittedly, the terrible handling of reporting in the immediate aftermath was a disgrace. But, in a way, that's part of the problem with the desperation to get news immediately - we've really got to start ascertaining facts before going out and doing press releases.

          As for the whole race relations issue - who knows what the answer is there

            You silly man, the Met never tell lies about people they've killed.

                  Don't say that in front of the police in London. They probably would.

                    sorry to say I have to agree, they seem to think they can lie.
                    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.
