    Seen that before, disgraceful. And the twat lawyer all over national TV lapping up the attention knowing what his defendants done. Can’t believe they were released so quickly although I’ve no idea what the law is around that, would’ve thought they would be held for longer than a night or charged.

    It's quite wrong for serious news channels to immediately release mobile phone footage, so quickly, without waiting for the whole story to emerge. It's really nothing more than clickbait and not what we should expect, and deserve, from our media.

    I don't care who's at fault in this incident, or who started what ...

    ... I just don't want to be told a story when it's not even half the story.

    A sad day in my opinion.

    I posted a while back that I'm going through the process of donating a kidney on what's called a Kidney Sharing Scheme.
    The Mrs needs one but we weren't a match, so I donate to someone else, and their partner donates to the Mrs.
    The matching process is done every 3 months, and on the last round we didn't get a match.
    The next matching process is today, though the hospitals involved don't get to find out till Friday.

    Keeping everything crossed that we get a match this time.

    I absolutely love comedy, just recently discovered this fella and I've laughed out loud many times. This is spot on...

    Just had the transplant co-ordinator on the phone, no match this time.
    Next matching process is end of October, so see what happens then.
    Disappointed, but we just carry doing what we're doing. Our turn will come, I'm sure of it.

    Sorry to hear that Snaggey, it must be so disappointing for you both.
    It's a setback but as @rooch 3 says, your time will come.
