*Some children from a loving family have been taken into care because they are obese. Why don't council social services work out a programme for such a family so that exercise and diet are controlled? Why move the kids? The problem with many social care agencies is that they are more concerned with splitting families than saving Baby P's. It is disgusting--why don't they get off their arses and start helping more abused children. An obese child in a loving environment needs parents who get onto a programme and have it monitored. You can expect this in Britain--please be careful to avoid getting your Labrador too fat---they take those away too! Sick.
* If our troops leave Afghanistan Al Quaeda moves in, say some of our political sages. So what! The Taliban are close to taking over the country again anyway.You cannot trust any Afghan anymore after the outrage this week. Let's face it we are going to have to fight terror at home, not in a country with corruption so rife that the police and army are in the Taliban's pockets. On top of that we have to fight a losing war with poor equipment. 'Big Bob', the under-equipped Defence Minister has no idea how to fight a war (He's worse than Rumsfeld who could find a WMD in his own kitchen). Bob is a defence disaster and so is his boss, Broon.
With casualties mounting (259 and counting), Broon could scrape into No. 10 again next year if he took our troops out. What a bunch of fools---AND THEY POINT FINGERS AT DANNAT!
* Here's another idiot centre stage: Alan Johnson, an ex trade union leader who doesn't like scientists who have their say. Some sort of complex I think he has. Why doesn't he leave the scientists alone and get on with his job. He's supposed to stop illegal immigrants, guard our borders and maintain a balance of cultural groups. While he's worrying about Nutt, hundreds of West Indians, Pakistanis, Ethiopians et al have sneaked in to enjoy the welfare state. How do I know, you ask? Because it has never stopped.
Here's a thought: If the country is being run by fools at every level Ed Balls should check their IQ's. He might be surprised. He could be average himself.
