The UK is officially fucked...
 
...according to me right now (PS I'll probably change my mind later). Just read this report:

I hope this, scum, spends a very long time behind bars...

jimbrim 06.03.2008 04:56 PM

irony of ironies

so an anti-murder activist was knifed to death by her own grandson?

!

MellySingsDoom 06.03.2008 05:33 PM

Most probably, Kegmeistress. Which changes my feelings towards the accused not one jot.

Lurker 06.03.2008 05:36 PM

The UK is fucked but for a lot more reasons than just knife crime.

Cantankerous 06.03.2008 05:46 PM

I'm sure that was the drugs.

MellySingsDoom 06.03.2008 05:54 PM

Ahem, can we talk about the fall of Albion as opposed to Winehouse's Melly-like dentistry? Thanks!

(Cantankerous - check out the Printworks in Deansgate - a decent place, that).

i have to look at mine every day

Lurker 06.03.2008 05:55 PM

Are you still in Manchester? Can't you just go and wander the streets exploring? I enjoy that.

Cantankerous 06.03.2008 05:58 PM

yeah i am still here. i do really enjoy wandering around.

im going to have julian take me exploring tomorrow because he knows the city and i don't.

btw doesnt the UK have some kind of stupid open container law now??

Lurker 06.03.2008 06:06 PM

Yeah I do enjoy it. I like looking at architecture, getting the feel for a place, and learning my way around.

Fair enough. You could watch our fine television.

What do mean about not being able to drink alcohol on the underground anymore? Yes but I think that's only London.

Cantankerous 06.03.2008 06:20 PM

yeah i heard something about that but it didn't concern me too much

i have had enough of your television inthe last three days. thanks though.

The good thing is the community WILL come out against this business. Cynical as i am, i do think people in this country will kick up a fuss, just like this woman did.

Im more concerned by the fact kids are being killed in London every week and there seems to be this "fact of the matter" attitude from the press. There was that 15 yr old girl the other day who was stabbed, it was on the front page of the Daily Mail, but you can bet it will be forgotton by next week. This business really bothers me.
