If they did make a correct decision, I would credit them, but up to now they haven't.

Right, where did I leave the explosives ? I've got a German troop train to derail.

Let's see how 'fair' and equal the cuts are likely to be : ( The source document is in the public domain http://www.collective-responsibility.net/images/uploads/files/MiddlesbroughCouncilStrategicResources.doc ) Edit, can't get the data formatted correctly on here so read the link, suffice to say Surrey loses far less per capita than Teesside.

My first car was a Morris Traveller bought for £75. Once, in a family medical emergency, I was going down the hill from Shap Fell on the M6 and the speedo needle was hard against the stop and the car was still accelerating - took the other drivers by surprise when we hurtled past them.

It's all on the local news pages of the BBC News web site, and has been on the teletext news, so it actually gets worldwide coverage, rather than just being on at 6:00 pm in one localised area.

As the Government is borrowing this money, when can we start the 'Tackling the ConDem debt mountain' thread ?

I don't think the BBC are particularly biased one way or the other, it's just that their relationship with whichever Government is in power is to some extent bound to be coloured by 'he who pays the piper calls the tune', and the politicos feel that as they are technically the paymasters, they are entitled to some influence.

Shock horror, a trades union exercising it's legal right to withdraw the labour of it's members.
