  • why is america so anti english?

    not just in new films but even overall attitudes.

    for example Gary McKinnon will get a very heavy handed sentence in USA even though he is clearly suffering a known mental affliction.

    would it not be better to have a slap on the wrist and then hire the man who hacked into usa most secret sites?

    who better for example to teach about break in in's than a real burglar etc

    wonder how this will turn out in a few years ? film? book? look at film 'catch me if you can' for a real world example of an american abusing usa monetary system. he at least got a job working with the government to resolve and prevent such problems.

    surely a more humane and responsible attitude? or will we get a severe sentence designed to try and frighten others away ( will fail eg China Russia alreadytargetingg usa etc)

  • yahoo why isn't it working?

    often when logging in to to yahoo UK site to check questions etc I see only american questions! yet the page clearly states UK & ireland.

    if Yahoo Uk has any questions why not simply say so and keep usa questions off the page as in most part we are unable to answer those. effectively making yahoo answers irrelevant.

    I am sure USA page would probably also not want to see UK relevant questions posted on their page. or is yahoo being american simply showing itself as the american attitude to rest of world we hear so much about?

  • why do all political parties refuse to allow or even discuss 'none of the above'?

    after all it works in USA and it would give the 70% odd who did not vote a chance to show they are not happy with ..well any of the above. at moment all are simply put into a category saying 'cant be bothered to vote' which is untrue as most actually REFUSE to vote. spoiling a ballot paper does no good and anyway very few actually know there is only one way a spoilt voting slip will be marked as such. eg writing norty words or scribbling across it wont be counted ( dustbin job)

The cursor also disappears under? this but will still operate on anything under it I cannot see such as a 'button' or link.

  • polls and payment refusal by USA government?

    why do the USA insist on taking advantage on refusing to pay congestion charges when everybody else in USA ( visitors has to pay their tolls)? 3/4 of all embassies pay it and it's not as if they cannot afford it (hardly Zimbabwe is it) Is it simply they wont pay as they do not regard us as worth taking any notice of? I am sure they would pay Saudi Arabia any congestion charges. maybe we should tax all our visitors going to USA a £1 a head to make up for it with the charge clearly stated as a default payment for and on behalf of USA government who insist on not paying lawful charges in a host country. ps I am told they also routinely ignore parking fines etc. so much for obeying a host countries laws!

  • medal of freedom should be renamed?

    recent medal of freedom given to Tony Blair in USA is a smack in the eye for rest of UK citizens. can it not be renamed medal of shame?

    I will not be allowed to venture such negative thoughts or statements offering rebuke like war criminal etc as It will be deleted. so you have to know why we in Uk think its abysmally of USA to do this although at same time understanding it feel the need to reward its puppet.

  • why i am not allowed to use my room name after all these years?

    now yahoo has 'down'?graded to a new interface I find i can no longer log in for a chat as my room name 'hornchurchmale' contains the letters 'hor' which some my find offencive. I am offended that an area of london and a name of a local church (yes =hornchurch) is offensive! you might next say if a man uses another three well know letters in a name ( you work it out) say middlesexman he too will be found to be offensive. Is it not time teh polkitical correctness had a touch of common sense added?
