    are you on the pay roll of Cameron Dom or turning into a grouch

    but these fake students should be banned from coming to the UK for good, too many rights to appeal and there is always the next time

    I could take you to colleges located above rows of shops,you look up,see the "College" sign and just shake your head The country is flooded with bogus students,I have met loads,normally african,but they sure didnt come here to study,got a mate from Zimbabwe,used to work every hour god made and more beisdes while here as a student,his wife and kids are here now,did he come here as a legitimate student?Not according to him



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    Very true it was said to me by one owner of a school in central london that half of Londons rental space above shops would be empty and the very shops and resturants below them would suffer if the colleges and all the no question asked cheap to employ employees dissapeared
    Oh lord why did you make so many clothes and shoe shops

    Yup,I saw one in Hounslow last year and thought it looked a prestigiously located seat of learning,you know....Oxford,Cambridge,Hounslow??????? Its true,it was right above a row of shops several of which were indian restaurants I sometimes wonder if the government view this country through a 100% lightproof blindfold,the general populance see whats going on,the ivory towers of westminster havent got a clue

    What a joke

    I wonder what slippery Immigration Minister Phil Woolas has got to say ? He's the grub who put ladies' clothing, tampons, comics and nappies on his expenses

    I think he's really a secret correspondent for the Daily Express, sent here to spread the tory doctrine and dish the dirt on labour. Either that or he's turning into Victor Meldrew.

    Tory, Labour ... or whatever ... they're all politicians. And, let's be frank, there's good, bad and ... the third lot [the majority, it seems!] who're just indifferent - regardless of WHICH party they claim allegiance to.

    That's what Dom says, Tory = Good, Anything Else = Bad, Labour = Very, Very Bad.

    Quote from a song by Catatonia ("This Boy Can't Swim") could be about Brown?

    Dreamt up the lies that would hold it together
    Then realised those he lied to were cleverer
    Left on the side they have long since rejoined him
    Back in the fold thick as thieves they will weigh him down

    It also seems to fit the young pretender David Cameron quite well.

    An Obituary Worthy of Reading

    An Obituary printed in the London Times - Interesting and sadly rather true.

    Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as:
    - Knowing when to come in out of the rain;
    - Why the early bird gets the worm;
    - Life isn't always fair;
    - and maybe it was my fault.

    Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge).
    His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.

    Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children.

    It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an aspirin to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.

    Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims.

    Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.

    Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.

    Common Sense was preceded in death, by his parents, Truth and Trust, by his wife, Discretion, by his daughter, Responsibility, and by his son, Reason.

    He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers;
    I Know My Rights
    I Want It Now
    Someone Else Is To Blame
    I'm A Victim

    Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing.

    I can see where your coming from Dom, but I can't for the life of me understand why you think David Cameron and the tories are going to be the answer to everyone's prayers.
