Just imagine what the Labour Party might have been like if she had survived. More importantly, without Mo, there would not have been a Northern Ireland peace process. Loved the bit where she did a 'Basic Instinct' on David Trimble.

Clue - Rigsby's cat...........

"Mo" on Channel 4, with Julie Walters as Mo Mowlam.

This means nothing to me. ( Well, come on, somebody had to say it )

I thought it was more "Oh yes, George..yes, yes, YEEESSSS!"

I have and he is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ( Mrs B )

It is my wife's birthday in 2 weeks, and I can confirm, even though she is indeed a teacher, she is not getting any younger.

It is known the 'Oxford comma', and is perfectly correct in that instance, ( and in this one ).

....Licken, the sky is falling in.

................ Already added to the list......

Chicken Karma anybody

Having no overdraft charges or mortgage payments certainly changes the way the current account balances up.

I wonder if, like the Igor's on Discworld, he has his uncle's eyes, ( and his brother's spleen, and his fathers left hand - but they can have them back if they need them ).

Well the Lord Chief Justice is called Justice Judge. Having been born Igor Judge, his future career path seems to have been pre-ordained !

See St G, it is possible to have a reasoned debate and accept that the other side has a valid point, without resorting to the playground antics of an 8 year old

And maybe the vested interest of 'big business', particularly in the States, and especially of the hydrocarbon based multinationals, are on a mission to under-emphasise and play down the potential issues to serve their own selfish agendas ? A lot of hot air and smokescreens; as has been mentioned before, very similar to the activities of the tobacco companies and their rearguard action against medical evidence, ( a lot of which was poo-poo'd and derided in exactly the same way ).

Tell you what, you can spend an extra £400, as compared to me, on TDD's salary and his submersible, ( I don't agree with Trident so you can cover my share of that ); whilst in exchange, I will pay £800 for HE funding, taking care of your little bit as well as mine. There , does that make you feel better ? H.E. won't cost you a penny.

I think anybody on here who is / has been the parent of a student will verify that it costs a damn sight more than £400 to have them attend Uni - and remember that they all come out with many thousand of £s of debt hanging round their necks when they leave. And don't for one second buy the line that they can afford this because they will all get better paid jobs - The Government says it wants 50% of 18 year-olds to attend HE; there is no way 50% of their future job opportunities will be graded to take account of, or have a requirement for, a graduate filling the vacancy.

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. You picked up on half a sentence and came over all sensationalist; "Government funding will increase to around £10 billion a year by 2005-06 to support university students, teaching and research - a rise of over 6 per cent a year in real terms. This is equivalent to around £400 a year paid by every income tax payer in England". So this doesn't just cover the workshy, layabout, students then I bet you a significant part of this funding has nothing to do with the students directly, and remember that our educational institutions fleece the overseas students as well, which helps to subsidise things. Government funding of Higher Education is essential to the future economic and social wellbeing of the country.

You can probably buy it for $5 in a slot machine in Las Vegas !

Source ( other than the Daily Mail or the Torygraph ); or is it just some more unsubstantiated right-wing think tank paranoid propaganda ?

You fibbing little tinker Do you fill in your lottery slip after the numbers have been drawn ?
