Jack Straw, the Justice Minister said:Biggs has shown no remorse for his appalling crime. I see no reason why the British taxpayer should continue to foot the bill for his medical care. He has been discharged from prison with immediate effect and will have care in the community like everyone else in this country.Jack StrawBigg's son, Michael, was outraged. "This is cruel beyond belief. Dad is doubly incontinent, cannot feed himself and is lapsing in and out of consciousness. He returned to this country to get the medical care to which he, as a British citizen, is entitled. Now he has been refused support in the community by a young girl who is not even medically qualified."Local social services, wh...

She was a 26-year-old student. She’d studied religion and philosophy, but was most interested in music and travel. On June 20, 2009 she was watching a protest with her music teacher. At 7:05 PM she was standing on Kargar Avenue at its intersection with Khosravi and Salehi Streets. Although initial reports implicated a sniper on top of a building, other witnesses said Neda was shot by a Basij militiaman riding a motorcycle. A few minutes later, she died. On the video a male voice says, “Neda, don’t be afraid. Neda, don’t be afraid.” And then, “Neda, stay with me. Neda, stay with me!” In Iran, One Woman’s Death May Have Many Consequences. Who...

If you believe (it) or not, the things Jezus goes through during Easter and autism have more in common then you might think. This story is not written to offend anyone. If someone may feel harmed in any way, I therefore apologize. I acknowledge Jezus stands above all standards and people and there is nothing or no one which can be compared to his kindness. He died for us, he carries all our sins and has sacrificed his own live in order to set us free.Jezus was special. He was gifted with many talents. His wisdom was one of them. He acted in his own way. He lived among the people on earth in his own world.People with autism often are seen as and feel like they are strangers in his world. Just like Jezus. Jezus was different from the mass of people too. Jezus was bu...

At one of the local hospitals, actually. I’m not altogether sure what he does. Something to do with data management about bed state, admissions and so on. He is a very conscientious worker. I can’t remember him ever have time off work other than three weeks for a bilateral inguinal hernia repair about twelve years ago. He lives with his wife, Mary, who works for the Post Office. I do not see much of either of them.I saw Eric today for the first time in five years. He was close to tears. He wanted me to sign him off work for two weeks for “stress”. He has already had one week off on a self-certificate. The underlying problem is Eric’s mother, Rhoda. Rhoda is a widow and lives 20...

Make of the juxtaposition what you will.I read an article in a newspaper.The BankrobbersPublicity shy British philanthropistI am no economist. I know little of high finance. Having issued that caveat, my strong view is that the government should either have trusted the market and let Northern Rock go to the wall, or they should have nationalised it on day one of the crisis. They did neither. Or both. Or a bit of this. And a bit of that. And lots more free publicity for that well-known philanthropist, Sir Richard Branson. In the end, even Gordon could not face giving Northern Rock to the vultures. So, finally, and too late, he nationalised it. What did the prevarication cost the taxpayer?To Goldman Sachs, the investment bank, and Sla...
