Some reports say he THEN turned the gun on himself but survived (guess he missed!).

A serious-sized bollock has been dropped in this case, it would appear!

Is it the smell of the lard, Tommo?

RICCCKKKKKAAAYYYY! (But actually Pats is a no from me)

Just started watching the series "Strike" on iPlayer. Quite taken with Holliday Grainger (silly name, but pretty and there's something "about" her!) Another ginge i'm afraid!

My wife is a redhead :)

And "Squeaky" Sian Gibson (third dishonourable mention in this thread!)

No-one has actually said where the stadium is going to be. The university has about 600 acres to choose from, some of it up to a mile from Cryfield Heights (ok, so 1760 yards!)

They're fiddling the data (expressing it in a different way) to put a positive spin on it. It's bollocks!

Party politics in local government should be outlawed - make people vote with their conscience.

Some may say that, but i prefer to focus on his medical attributes when he is commenting on medical matters. Double first at Cambridge, PhD in Immunology at Stanford, founding Professor of Oncology at Imperial College, Deputy Clinical Director at Imperial Cancer Research Fund, Chief of the WHO's...

Thanks FP!

The Labour candidate in the 2019 election in Wyken got 1425 votes on a turnout of 27%. Surely we could have someone standing as an independent to get more than that? If she is the one that died (Hazel Sweet), the Tory in second only got 765.

Karol Sikora is also very critical of the impact of the pandemic on cancer care. He estimates that there may be in excess of two million people in the UK who have not been able to access proper cancer treatment or even go to their GP with lumps, etc., since corona reared its ugly, spiky little...

This guy is a great follow on Twitter ... oncology prof at Brum medical school, and very analytical/critical of any negativity in media analysis of the data.

Local councillors usually serve for three years, but Coventry CC is four years (normally). I suspect that is to avoid too much upheaval, although in reality most of them get re-elected on the nod. It's probably better to wait for one of them to kick the bucket, then have someone waiting in the...

There were no elections scheduled for 2021 - it was the "fallow" year, so still only 18, who would have served 5 years rather than 4 without re-election.

It's worth taking a look at the Office for National Statistics data, which work on the daily death rate by date of death (if you get my drift), rather than date of reporting, which the badly-flawed PHE data quote. There were only 5 deaths in hospitals in England yesterday. How many from cancer...

An example is the Kenilworth Lido. The leader of Warwick DC was ousted from the Park Hill ward in Kenilworth by the Greens, following a fairly long campaign to try to save the Lido. Result, you might think - but the Greens were still in the minority, and the Lido closure will go ahead regardless.

They elect one-third of the 54 councillors each year (so there can be no complete removal of the whole council). In fact, there are elections three years out of four, and there were due to be no elections in 2021, but i guess those seats that were due to be contested in 2020 will be voted on...
