Man wins Prize

This is all over the news today and the BBC Link is here.

Man plays lottery, man wins lottery, what’s the deal. Oh he’s banged up. So what.

He took part in a competition and won, he used his money to enter, has probably been paying a tenner a week, for ages, the prize should go to him. If he had won £5,000 on the horses, nobody would have cared.

If we were to ban all the people we believed that they didn’t deserve to win from the lottery, the main prize would be under a million a draw.

Mayor backs charge zone extension

Stupid, stupid Ken!!!
66% of residents don’t want the charge, yet he won’t listen.

The main problem for me with extending the congestion charge is that all the people living in Kensington and Chelsea, will now have to pay £5 a week to drive their car off their drive, and for this £5 per week, they can drive anywhere in London.
This will mean that everyone in K&C with a residents C-Charge permit, will be heading to the West End, as they’ve already paid.
Thus actually more congestion, not less.

Blair says WMD ‘may never be found’

“Tony Blair has said Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction ‘may never be found’.

Mr Blair said he had ‘to accept we haven’t found them and we may never find them’ – but that did not mean Saddam Hussein had not been a threat.

He said the former Iraqi leader had been in breach of UN resolutions and his weapons may have been ‘removed, hidden or destroyed’.”

Suprise, suprise.

If Saddam had destroyed his weapons, then wasn’t that exactly what the US and UK were claiming they wanted?
