Now I would buy it for THAT.

And to be fair, where else would I find out how to order my commemorative 'Princess of Hearts' china plate?

I'm not sure he's too hot on how the succession works if he's aiming to kill Charles so Harry becomes King.

Also, later on, I think he means "Kill Charles and William and Harry becomes king" but instead we have some sort of joint venture.

But on a more serious note, this is why you can't say anything or go anywhere or write an e-mail with GCHQ watching, to protect us from this lot. The secret services need loads of surveillance powers to protect us from f*cktards like him^ and lads from Bradford ordering fireworks and fertiliser to their home addresses. It's hardly f*cking Spooks.

There's not enough sympathy for white, red haired men.
I'm founding Give a Ginge a Hug Day - it will be Saturday 10th October.
I'm planning on the same day being King Harry I's coronation day (if only I can find where I hid my military-grade sniper rifle*)

If you'd tried to sell the film script for that a year ago it would have had to be pitched as a comedy with Sellers, or his modern day equivalent, in the Colbourne roll.

Breaking News at the BBC
Julian Assange: Police end guard at Wikileaks founder's embassy refuge
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-34508500

:lol:

They've finally cottoned on. They should have done this ages ago, announce the end of a police guard (but station a couple of undercover bodies ready to grab him when he sidles out. would have saved the Met millions.)

I think, in a roundabout sort of way, he did. A bit like the Yorkshire Ripper hired the various police forces that hunted for him. Neither ever intended to pay the bill (groan) but their actions directly led to professionals spending time, and therefore money, persuing the subsequent fallout.

I see that GMP are offering a £50k reward in connection to the shooting of Salford's Mr. Big, Paul Massey. Whilst not mourning him very much, the cops actually looking to GIVE cash to the guy who shot him is an unusual step.

your normal response to such a case (at least if it were in THIS country) would be to loudly assert that anyone choosing to live in our country should obey our laws...

have you changed your mind?

(yes - cameron should intervene - saudi arabia's justice system is legalised brutal thuggery - and I am opposed corporal and capital punishment... but he has worked there long enough to know the laws and the consequences - and it is fecking stupid and a little bit arrogant to decide to flout the law of your host country.)

No, no, I just cannot get my head around what the hell a 74 year old, suffering from the effects of cancer, frail in body with a wife dying at home is doing riding around Saudi with homebrew in the car!
