If you mute the Katie video whilst you watch it and play this, it's a scarily accurate match.

Robbie Savage has been taken to hospital after suffering severe altitude sickness 13,000 ft up Mt Kilimanjaro.

I see the Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University has suggested a rise of tuition fees from £9,000 to £16,000 per annum.

Nick Clegg has said he will not allow it and the cap will remain at £9,000.

I'm getting a sense of deja vu...

 

Talking of Universities, I think I've finally decided on my five initial choices, and my personal statement is done. Scary thought.

 

In my cynical mood, it's a calculated way to keep the poor as they are, whether they take the plunge and educate themselves, whether they become trades people, or whether they set out on a career of uneducated unemployment. Remarkably, there's never a reputable university course in the UK on how to become an entrepreneur**, which is actually what the country is crying out for. All mass higher education does is satisfy a few people and make an awful lot of the educated unemployed 3-4 years after they started Uni. By all means be educated, but don't condemn onesself to poverty afterwards.

** Since the dissenters left.

 

I don't like this vile woman at all, but I totally agree with her on this one. Parents need to take responsibility for their children's bad eating habits, by at first talking to them in a softer tone to try and get them to understand that they're fat without being mean and encourage them to lose fat and weight. I'm doubting that this will work, then method b will have to be used, this is by telling them that they are fatties and need to lose weight, bullies will no doubt do this anyway and rightly so, so it may not be necessary for parents to deploy this tactic.

Enough with this nanny state now. Fat (very fat, obese) people, you are either with us or you'll have to go. There's no excuses.

 

Come on man. Fat people have no place in society, they need help and it's our duty as fellow humans to help them out and not encourage their reckless ways.

 

Banned in 5,4,3....

 

gone

 

Impressive !

 

Aww I missed him. Damn efficient moderating.

 

Was he advocating forced migration of fat people at the end there?

 

I thought he ment that aswell.

 

Not exactly a policy worthy of the username.

 

There is still talk of Alonso going to McLaren next year , and they have signed one of Red Bulls top design team for 2015 , can see him being put on Gardening leave . Doubt they will want him going to McLaren with a years worth of Red Bulls 2015 car's knowledge !

 

Thought that. Anti Police State (for the thin).

 

F1 is boring these days, something needs to be done.

 

How about patches of oil and water on the track, like in old school computer games, before they all got so serious.

 

No disagreement from Me Beefy or Oli .

I long for the good old days of early 1980's and 1990's :-(

Sadly while the Manufacturers are so powerful , I fear it will be like this for some years yet .........

 

It isn't about who is the best driver anymore. I'd like all cars to be the same design etc.
