I see. So, if you have a late and hearty breakfast that sees you through to your evening meal then I take it that you'll call that your 'Brinner', no? And of course, if taken around the Festive period it'll be called a Yule Brinner.TANGODANCER wrote:You might note I said "terms"manual workers used" and never mentioned anything whatsoever about "exclusively" or non-manual workers.

Well he's been shot, but is alive for now. Well done the police I suppose in the end.
I'm sure when I wake up tommorow I'll wonder if this has all been a dream. Gazza won't have a fecking clue what happened.

The Gazza bit is priceless. Top hostage negotiator - "Moaty it's Gazza" - that'll sort it!
And here they come the bleeding liberal hearts and anti Police club!!!

so the police jumped on this poor soul,and that was the cause of moat pulling the trigger and killing himself,so much for the british police profesional training in dealing in such matters,they are guilty of inpatience,and of cause his so called girl friend,what a ruddy waste of life,i myself know of men,good men,have lost everything because of certain women do a double timeing on their husbands,

such a shame it ended like this, why did the police 'jump' him? why not wait until he was ready? if he was as dangerous as police were saying he would have taken a lot more people out first. at one time what he done would have been called a crime of passion not made him 'Britains most wanted' Typical police panic

I'd of expected he would of ended up dead.
I agree with what gentelman has just said.
"a single shot was heard, no officers opened fire" That's what was said, however I'm inclined to not believe that. We will never know exactly what happened, but for one, someone with a shotgun who would of inevitably shot himself in the neck/head with a shotgun would of taken is head off or it been blown to pieces. So would of been dead instantly yet they was keen to get him to the hospital, why? I heard the shouting and gunshot, sounded more than one shot too me.
I dont trust the police, they cover up to much and have often lied through their teeth to get themselves out of the **** and theres nothing that can be done.
Shows what a sad state of affairs it is when it was also a member of the public who informed the police of where moet was. They are the most USELESS force in the world, clearly..7days of choppers countless officers and patrols and the useless bastards couldn't find him.
I must say by the way they probably got bored and wanted to get home to have food, pounced on the bloke and shot him themselves.
Now do you wonder about planet hobo justice?

One can only imagine the feeling of utter exasperation on the part of the Commanding Officer, when, overseeing one of the most delicate and dangerous stand-offs in living memory, which in turn is being played out in front of the full glare of the media, sees a pissed-up Gazza waddle upto the line - bag of bits in one hand - fishing rod in the other, reckoning that he's the man for the job. Apparently a simple "Moaty, it's Gazza" and a half hours trout fishing could've saved everyone all this bother.

Of course they're going to be broadcasting the whole thing - the writers are hardly going to go to all that effort of creating the scenario then not tell anyone, are they?thebish wrote:went to bed last night and missus had r5 on - the whole thing being played out as r5 swings into full forensic rubbernecker mode - inviting calls from bystanders and people in their gardens with bioculars - playing out the whole things as if it is an episode of big brother.....

Or are you one of these naive types that believes it?
These people you see on tv - Raoul Moat, Dr Who, Captain Kirk, David Cameron - they're not real, you know. They're actors, trying to entertain us. That's all.
