5-year sentence and out in less than 2 years??
donuticus replied to TyneSoft's topic in General Discussions
As I understand it all sentences are in two parts. The punishment tariff (the part served in custody) and the rehabilitation tariff (the part served on parole). This is usually a 50/50 split as you say, time can be r3duced from the punishment tariff for good behaviour in prison. This time isn’t reduced from the overall sentence it just increases the rehabilitation portion. In your case 5yrs will still be served just not in an exact 50/50 split. -
I joined in 2006. I left the UK in 2010 so my contributions diminished then. I remember Bartfarst, and while I didn't agree with him, he was by far the most erudite antagonist this forum has ever had. I also wonder if SlimSid ever got his end away.

Which blind three fingered hairdresser/butcher did that haircut?

I'm reminded of this rather wonderful thread. vResistance didn't get involved but TruthLogic (who never posted at the same time but did completely agree with everything vR said) a similarly deluded halfwit became convinced that Prince William had admitted to being a part of a secret society. http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?t=732986&highlight=prince+william+alumni

Protest against Austerity Sheffield 8th July
donuticus replied to markyspark's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
It's always a lot easier to blame others for the decisions you made. Take a look back through your life the only thing that has been a constant is yourself. You're where you are because of the life choices YOU have made. No one else. -
I wouldn't fancy being the Australian Ambassador having to explain why his nation thinks it can circumvent local laws. Plus I doubt Tony Abbott gives two hoots what happens to convicted drug dealers.

Do you think people with mental illnesses should wear wristbands
donuticus replied to Mister M's topic in General Discussions
I saw this and couldn't see all the fuss over it. The suggestion was that people with serious mental health problems could wear a bracelet identifying their problem in case they were taken ill and were unable to tell the Dr. I've had bi-polar since I was in my teens. In my wallet I carry a piece of paper with my name, my address, a contact number for my partner and a list with the names and doses of the various medications I take. In the event of me having an accident (get hit by a bus, car crash etc.) the hospital can immediately contact my partner and can use drugs that won't react with those already in my system. At no point did this lady insist that it should be compulsory. If she had then I can completely understand why people would hot under the collar about it. As it is, it seems no different to wearing a medic alert bracelet listing any allergies you have as well as if you're diabetic or epileptic. It's merely a way to signify to medical practitioners, in case of an emergency, that ou already have medical conditions and that they may be the reason as to your current plight. Any information is good information. -
Over 55s being refused access to pension cash already.
donuticus replied to Janus's topic in General Discussions
And that's nobodies fault but their own. People are being given the opportunity to access a lump sum from their pension pot and are being given the opportunity to spend it on whatever they want. If, as opposed to paying their mortgage off or something smart, they choose to buy their own bodyweight in marshmallow fluff then that's their decision. -
Yet despite flogging off these huge chunks of the NHS has still privatised less than the Labour Government did?

The odds on you being killed by either are infinitesimally small. As long as the drones save the lives of US/UK/NATO/UN soldiers then I'm all for it.
