I must admit when you see this sort of thing happening on a Sunday afternoon at a place where you quite often walk it is scary...

Yes I agree very scary. How have we gotten in this situation that this can happen . Is not this quite close to where our dear Home Secretary lives??

The police were probably just following Brian's previous advice and taking pot shots at members of the public from the helicopters.

The Home Secretary should be okay, she has an armed guard outside the house that she occasionally uses as her primary residence. Maybe we should all have armed guards outside our homes if the home secretary can only make it safe for herself.

Nice one Michael, but as you know that was not what I said.

Anyway I am sure that Jacqui will sort the matter out . I was filled with reassurance after hearing her on Andrew Marr's great programme today.

The only time I will be filled with confidence following her in an interview will be the day she utters.... "I resign" Thumbsup

I agree Snazy but as she probably has another year to reap in all the benefits I would imagine no chance of resignation. Cannot see Gordon sacking her with onlt 1 year to go.

I hope the Inland Revenue have checked to see her sister has declared all the rents she has received over the last few years.

I'm surprised this was not called south Peckham or something else. Boundaries can be very flexible around here!

I noticed in a local paper yesterday that it was yet another drug debt crime
