UK Paedophiles Are Allowed To Abuse Children Abroad

Hundreds of paedophiles have scuttled out of Britain to avoid justice before trial or escape the restrictions of the Sex Offenders Register once convicted.
They can flee because they get to keep their passports.
Taking them away would infringe heir human rights.
Police must ask magistrates to stop a convicted sex offender travelling abroad yet rarely prove to the JPs’ satisfaction that they “intend to commit a crime”.
And while anyone on the register has to tell police where they are travelling, that doesn’t apply to three-day jaunts.
Presumably no one thinks these cunning perverts could abuse a child in 72 hours or might simply decide not to bother coming home.
The system is an obscene travesty of justice and clearly useless.
We are failing all children by letting these sick creatures escape to paedophile hotspots around the world.
The boss of the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre points out: “Britons who travel abroad to abuse children in the belief that they can evade justice are a UK problem. We have a duty to protect every child, everywhere who is threatened by a UK citizen”.
The solution seems obvious. Seize their passports.
If a suspect on bail is subsequently cleared then he can have it back.
But let’s put the rights of children before those of the sick beasts who abuse them.

A Dog Is For Life

Dogs can see more than just black, white and grey but their colour range is limited compared to humans.
A dog’s colour palette consists mostly of yellows, blues and violets, so colours such as red, green and orange are not distinguishable to them.
Dogs do have superior night vision and are better at tracking movement than we are.

A dog is a man’s best friend.
A cat is a cat’s best friend.

She breeds bulldogs.
She won first prize at Crufts.
Her dog came second.

A dog is for life, not just for Christmas.
So be careful at the next Christmas party.

ConDems Axe 100,000 New Homes

More than 100,000 planned homes have been axed by councils since the ConDem government came to power.
Labour’s target of three million new dwellings in England by 2020 has been ditched by the ConDems – and town halls instead told to devise their own proposals.
Dr Peter Williams of housing watchdog NHPAU said: “The likelihood is we will see fewer homes being built, the prospects for first-time buyers look extremely difficult and not likely to get better in the near future”.

And Then There Are The Dead And Maimed

Five German armies with one million troops invaded Poland on September 1, 1939.

Approximately 14 million people were killed in the First World War.

An estimated 6,000 Japanese pilots died on suicide missions in the Second World War.

The price of a peaceful solution cannot be paid in violence.

History is the best weapon we have to defend the future.

Many people claim that the Iraq war was in some way a success.
As the USA formally ends its combat role, the country is lawless, riven by sectarian hate.
Despite its supposed ‘democracy’, its politicians cannot form a government.
Iran, supposedly our enemy, dominates Iraqi politics.
Christians have fled persecution in their tens of thousands.
Many Iraqis live abroad, too scared to return home for one good reason or another.
Women, far from being ‘liberated’, are now forced to wear black shrouds.
There is terror in the streets.
Power and water have never been properly restored.
The men America paid to fight for it are now deserting back to the insurgency.
And a new war is in the making over Kurdish control of the northern oilfields.
And then there are the dead and maimed.

Seven Times More Vitamin C Than Oranges

What should we be filling our dinner / lunch plates with?
Number one on the list is surely the pea-shoot, the curly leaves of the immature garden pea vine.
Gram for gram, these unassuming plants contain seven times more Vitamin C than oranges – which has a role in the formation of blood vessels, tendons, ligaments and bone, helps the absorption of iron from food, supports the immune system and is an antioxidant, which some studies have claimed could protect against cancer.
Curiously, they taste much like the actual pea itself – and contain four times more Vitamin A than tomatoes.
They are also a rich source of folic acid, one of the B vitamins, which helps produce healthy cells and blood and is also essential during pregnancy.

Eating Red Meat May Cause Heart Disease

Eating red meat may increase the risk of heart failure.
Researchers in a new study monitored 21,000 male doctors for nearly two decades and found that those who ate the most beef, lamb and pork had a 24 per cent higher risk of developing the condition.
The findings may point to a way of reducing the risk of a disease that affects more than 700,000 men and women in the UK each year.
“This is the first study to evaluate the relationship between red meat consumption and heart failure risk in a large group”, say the researchers from Harvard and Boston universities.

Welcome Everything That Comes To You

Read, try, judge, and speak as you find.

Suffer the ill and look for the good.

Will is no skill.

The submitting to one wrong brings on another.

Luck is never in or out
Because there’s no such thing.
Thoughts and actions, right and wrong,
There own reward will bring.

Words have wings and cannot be recalled.

He that has time and looks for time, loses time.

Truth fears no trial.

Time reveals all things.

There is a time to speak and a time to be silent.

Time is a file that wears and makes no noise.

A word before is worth two afterwards.

If we desire to judge all things justly, we must first persuade ourselves that none of us is without sin.

Blessed is the man that endureth temptation.

The next best thing to doing something worthwhile
Is not to do something daft.

Long only for what you have.

Welcome everything that comes to you,
But do not long for anything else.

We must not waste life in devising means.
It is better to plan less and do more.

No man is ever old enough to know better.

Cameron ‘failing on sex-trafficking law’

The Church of England have accused David Cameron of failing to clamp down on sex traffickers.
Archbishop of York John Sentamu said: “Sex trafficking is nothing more than modern-day slavery”.
Cameron has refused to comply with an EU directive which seeks to stamp out the vile trade.
The EU wants powers to prosecute offenders in one member state for offences committed in others.
Dr John Sentamu said: “I am stunned the Government is opting out of this law”.

The Pleasures Of Food Are So Great

Nigella Lawson is a latter-day Ma Larkin and speaks with the same honest relish about what she calls the “joy” emanating from her kitchen, the delicious aromas, the feel of food in her hands and pleasure of sitting down to a home-cooked roast with all the trimmings.
She’s a throwback to those days when cakes were home made not shop-bought, milk was full fat and cookies were called biscuits, which came out of the oven not a cellophane wrap.
She says: “The pressures of food are so great that I really do believe that those who don’t allow themselves to wallow in them have a lesser life”.
“I don’t believe in indiscriminate gluttony. It’s all about savouring food without shame and not thinking that less flesh – either on your plate or your skeleton – is better”.

The Long-Suffering British Motorist

You don’t need insurance or a driving licence for an invalid carriage, you can even own one if you’re blind, and there are 300,000 on Britain’s roads and pavements.

The long-suffering British motorist has been badly served by the authorities.
Taxed beyond endurance for the privilege of using a crumbling and congested road network, he then becomes easy prey for the police.
Prosecutions for minor infractions of the speed limit can be secured with little effort, artificially inflating clear-up rates and earning a fortune from fines.
Fresh offences, such as driving while using a mobile phone or eating a banana behind the wheel, are placed on the statute book while serious crime is neglected.
