Hot air really, the plan is so watered down 3 months before you can claim benefits? it should be 3 years, no one should get benefits of any sort who were not born here till they have paid 3 years NI contributions The 6 month thing is so open to abuse too, they can just apply for loads of jobs in the final month and pass the 'good chance of getting work' test Some of those things wont be on the statute book for months even years too Don't see this boosting us

True but instead he is going to probably be in prison for the next 15 years and then be looking over his shoulder for the rest of his life, a lot harder option than plucking up the courage to be chemically castrated

He could have applied to be chemically castrated I have read instances before of people with sexual urges towards children having chemical castration and the urges were heavily minimised or gone completely after

1. Murray 2. McCoy 3. Farah Prediction

I think they need to redefine paedophilia Technically that teacher is a paedophile because he had sex with a 15 year old, that is not proper paedophilia People should only be classed as a paedophile if they are involved with a prepubescent

Exactly, if it had been an underage female here who was past the age of puberty i would think 'ewww gross :wacko: ' but it would not put me off listening to the artist, pop stars shagging groupies is not unusual and many can be underage legally But a baby is a whole different ballgame, repugnant on every level imaginable If the rest of the band reform under a new name i would listen to the music but the Lostprophets brand is tarnished forever beyond repair imho

Pretty obvious Murray will win the award Don't like Murray as a person but first male Wimbledon winner for decades makes him an easy choice

Valid points and i agree But I would not be able to listen to a Lostprophets song again without my blood boiling at what he did I saw them live several times, owned just about every studio cd I don't think i can listen now and contain my anger at the same time We are not talking about 14/15 year olds here, they are past puberty, many that age are sexually active, we are talking about a BABY I feel physically sick just thinking about this case

Kinda but Sherwood is in charge of youth team, academy and reserves, he acts as a consultant to AVB and makes suggestions but AVB has full autonomy on first team affairs and tactics

Baldini is not involved in coaching or the first team squad though, his brief is scouting and player recruitment, Sherwood is our technical director and Freund our assistant manager so while it could be said Baldini has bought the wrong players the blame must lie with AVB for not getting the best out of them

Yeah i don't think he is the man to take us forward, might scrape 4th or 5th this year but has reached a glass ceiling in terms of his level, we need a manager with a tactical brain and someone who doesn't play such dull football.

He is more twisted than Glitter To think i used to like Lostprophets too :/

Obviously that is difficult if they were born here but any immigrant coming to UK from EU or non EU should be security checked to find out whether they have any convictions in their own country or are known to have religious extremist views, and if they have then their entry into UK should be declined I welcome immigrants but the right type of immigrant

I think immigration, within reason, is a good thing. I welcome anyone here who is prepared to work hard, knuckle down, adapt to our way of life, respect the laws of the land. I think any reasonable person does But what we don't need is hate preachers, religious extremists, people who come here and don't respect our culture and our laws and those who have no desire to get a job, they need stopping from arriving in first place or booted out immediately they cause trouble. My views are not remotely close to a Daily Mail reader

Germany's economy is built around manufacturing, there is always going to be demand for Audi's and BMW's etc Our economy is based around the service sector (hairdressing, retail, restaurants etc) which is a lot more prone to being changeable

Yeah £40m is laughable, in todays prices he is easily worth 60-70m maybe even more Arsenal were taking the piss with their offer

It was easy keeping Suarez though. The biggest offer was £40,000,001 which is probably not even half of what he is worth Whereas £86m for Bale was stark raving bonkers, a £50m player who had a stellar season, impossible to turn down

Someone on another forum yesterday raised the point that AVB has never played professional football, of course having played doesn't make someone a good manager as we have seen from Souness/Roy Keane/Tony Adams/Mark Hughes etc, but i think it might be something that is holding him back in the sense he has no Plan B as has never kicked a ball in a professional game. I think his days are numbered here, maybe he will survive the season but beyond that cant see him being here next year, apparently we are already sounding out Joachim Loew for taking over after the world cup Lamela is being played out of position which is bizarre from AVB, very talented player but he is being played on the opposite side to where he was in Italy With Soldado his problem is 2 things, firstly the fact that Lennon and Townsend couldn't cross a ball if their life depended on it which blunts Soldado's natural game of being a poacher in the box, the ball is not getting in the box, the other issue for him is lack of pace, this is shown in the fact he has little or no movement off the ball So what AVB needs to do is play to Soldado's strengths and adjust tactics accordingly, but he is too set in his ways and has no Plan B

When you are in a position to enter the property market which do you plan to do? 1) Rent a place for £1000 a month and make a buy to let landlord richer than he already is 2) Buy a property on a mortgage for a similar amount per month and have something to call your own

We have the most generous benefits system, the best health service in Europe if not the world You could say the same for non EU immigration too, why does someone get a plane from Somalia or Afghanistan or India to Heathrow instead of flying to Frankfurt or Zurich etc which are nearer them than Heathrow

They will be coming here to work Lets say 200,000 come here (a figure plucked out of thin air), if even half get a job then that will be 100,000 Brits who don't, and that will fuel resentment, wrongly so as i admire the Eastern european work ethic

Depends how many come, if it is 20,000 it won't be a massive deal, if it is 200,000 or more then it will put massive extra strain on our schools, hospitals, doctors surgeries and roads not to mention social housing Those start happening then more and more will get pissed off

Yes i agree on all counts with this post

Impossible to predict Didn't previous governments predict like 50,000 Poles and others and it turned out to be a million or something?

Maybe so but the buy to let landlords in Germany must be bathing in €100 notes while at the same time the renting German population are just throwing money away with nothing to show for it They should embrace our home ownership model not the other way round
