"The have you ever been convicted of a crime of "moral turpitude" is far more "interesting""
At least it's better than the UK "Have you ever appeared on a database where, even if you haven't been convicted, we've got your information." But then we spoil it by saying to, well, anybody remotely suspicious, "Now you must be good and report weekly to this Centre and we'll pay for you to get there." and then act surprised when they don't turn up!
It's time the supermarkets were brought in to offer ID Cards.
We could get Tesco or Nectar points on the £30. We might even get 'loss leader' offers!
Or even 'Free ID Card with every purchase of 30 bottles of Stella'
Or Buy one ID Card and get one FREE!
They need all the help they can get.
Why do I have this mind-picture of Meg with her fingers in her ears going ... La, la, la?
This government is so thick it can't even shift its attention from Manchester. We gave them two fingers for the Congestion Charge lying and now another two fingers for the ID Card.
Which part of 94% against do you not understand?
If Los Angeles Cardinal Roger Mahony anoints Rupert and his wife as members of the Pontifical Order of St. Gregory the Great in January, 1998 then this scurrilous rumour must be incorrect.
This knighthood, bestowed on behalf of the pope, is given to persons of "unblemished character" who have "promoted the interests of society, the Church and the Holy See.
To sully Mr Murdoch's name (God bless 'im) with witchery like the Sun, Microsoft and Fox is akin to bringing the Catholic Church into disrepute and that unblemished character = kerchinnnnng!
This temper tantrum from CEOP fits in well with one of the latest wheezes of the Polizei ... to treat people as criminals BEFORE they commit an illegal act. Yes, the Department of Pre Crime is alive and well and can't wait to use non-touch graphics and little balls.
The rozzers want to treat people with a history of complaints or allegations against them (which can't be taken to court through lack of evidence) as perpetrators. So. allegations made by the use of the CEOP Button will probably count and so the filth can lock someone up on 'number of allegations' evidence. In fact, they've been doing this for a while but have had to use the courts so far.
Jim Gamble ... dontcha just love him? (Is that a 'come on'? Best press the CEOP button!)
To those of you (mostly anonymous, understandably) who would paint iPhone users as wankers I say this ...
In view of statistical evidence that MOST males are truly into at least occasional onanism, you must at the very least be in denial and at worst, liars.
I suppose you blame the stains on your N97s or whatever.
Back to the poll ...
Nielsen Mobile estimates there are 2.3 million US mobile subscribers using an iPhone.
The iPhone accounts for 1 percent of all embedded mobile phone users in the US.
And they polled 445, INCLUDING Blackberry users!
They ought really to be out of work!
