I think this ends the argument once and for all doesn't it? British people do not want to do these jobs. I don't blame anyone for not wanting to pick fruit, I don't want to pick fruit, but lets not get on our high horse and discriminate against those that do if they are speaking their mother tongue on a bus.

Yeah that doesn't diminish my point Michael Gove musing on Andrew Marr has no basis in law whatsoever. I live in a semi-rural area and go out for a long walk every day, I'm never with 2 meters of anybody else and I don't care what Mr Gove says or thinks about that.

Because they can. There is nothing in the Coronavirus bill that stipulates how long you can exercise.

You should be alright. If the police pull you over (unlikely) you can explain that you're going for some exercise. If they query and ask to see your licence to get your address and you live the other side of town you'll probably get a ticking off and morality tale. I live quite near Dam Flask and if I was you I'd look at some of other reservoirs around that area. They aren't as crowded and are far less likely to have plod sniffing around them checking peoples postcodes.

Well the term 'friend' is so subjective. If I define friends by people the people I get on with and occasionally socialise with i've got loads of friends. If you define friend as a person you could phone in the early hours and you know they'd come to help. I've got 3-5 of them.

I hope and pray that actually being elections is the worst thing that will ever happen to these people, and that after Trump and Brexit no one will want to know this sort of politics for decades to come.

No, not right now because we'd lose. Think i'm in the camp of a lot of Republicans in that campaigning for a republic while Elizabeth is a live is almost a total waste of time. However, surely the Monarchy is going to to run into some serious trouble when the Queen dies. Charles, is a bit of a fruit loop who seems determined to get across his political points at any given opportunity, a trait that I imagine will get worse once his mother dies, although he does seem committed to being a working royal which is more than can be said for most them. William, is a 34 year old man who wears beige chinos and a jumper, and frankly looks like he hates every other second of being a royal. Enough said. I'll leave George alone, But seriously...as the UK gets more diverse and hopefully much more forward looking how can our head of state be a beige old white man? They can't. I'll call her Elizabeth the great as long as she's Elizabeth the last.

I was on You tube the other day, and stumbled upon a series about "Britain's toughest Pub", this got me thinking. Which is Sheffield's roughest Pub. Personally the only Pubs I go to are in Broomhill and Crookes and they are all quite pleasant. But I'm sure some of you must have some experience's in Sheffield's less desirable boozers.

One thing for sure. Jesus was not a Christian.

No, it's the weakness and insecurity of man that causes him to turn to God. Obedience? That's a good one, how do we know how to stay in line with Mr G. The Bible? What about the people in Saudi Arabia and North Korea? Most of them have never seen or read a Bible? How can they be obedient. No he didn't ---------- Post added 18-07-2014 at 00:15 ---------- Which God do we follow? There's just so many, it's like being in a really good butchers. You see all the God's have different pro's and con's. The God's of Islam, Christianity, Sikhism, Hinduism, Rome and the Celts are all very appealing.

Maybe he'll save us all. By becoming a human and getting tortured and killed. The coming back to life and then dying again. Then some of his mates, could write down what he said a good few years later. So we can all live by it and be saved. I hear you laugh, but it worked last time.

This may not be strictly relevant but I just love it. http://www.atheistmemebase.com/2014/06/07/militant-atheist/ On the issue in hand, the Church of England is falling to pieces, the congregations are literally dying out. I bet that by the end of the next decade the C of E will have completely transformed, Instead of being in every village and town, the C of E will consist of a cathedral in every major city. And some scenic Church's for American tourists. However, I don't look forward to this. There is no such thing as a vacuum, as the C of E retreats into oblivion and pointlessness other forms of Christianity advance into it's place. And it looks like American style evangelicalism and conservative Pentecostalism are on the march. So instead of having old Bishops with contradictory views and out of date opinions, will could end up with Charismatic young pastors with white teeth and good hairstyles. Trust me, a rebirth of Christian evangelicalism is not unlikely.

I think you have every right to be angry if someone nearly kills in fact the yesterday I saw a near miss involving a scooter, cyclist and car. The incident was totally the fault of the car by the way. About the 80% question. Maybe I didn't make myself clear. I don't think cyclists are anti-motorists and vice versa i think the entire opposite. In fact I think 80% is a very good figure, 80% of road users are sensible and rational. With the other 20% being idiots. The idiots being made up of lorry drivers, cyclists, motorists, motorbikes etc etc

Well none of the foreign students I've met and I've met a lot, could even dream of getting a car.

:hihi::hihi: Seriously? I doubt many students have cars. Especially foreign ones, what do you think they do? Land in Sheffield and go looking round car lots. Or maybe they import them. Your proving my point mate. Cycling threads remind me very much of religion threads. To sides who will never agree with a small proportion on each side who can't stand each other. My Mum was knocked over by a cyclist who got on his bike and rode away. Do I think that guy was a scumbag? Yes. Do I think all cyclists are bad people as a result? Absolutely no. Same with Car drivers, some car drivers are loons, who are a danger to other motorists as well bikes and pedestrians. I just accept that the roads are full of idiot motorists. Idiot cyclists. And Idiot pedestrians. I don't get why others don't do the same.

A lot of old people use that. They talk about "the war" even though most didn't fight. Personally I think getting them on the trains is a good idea, as it keeps them off the road making the world just that bit safer.

There are some facts of life that will remain for eternity, until the Earth ceases to be. 1. The sun will rise. 2. The wind will blow. 3. The clouds will gather. 4. The rain will fall. 5. People of Sheffield forum will continue to knock the living daylights out of each other on the issue of cycling. The motorists will scream about road tax (completely wrongly) and why cyclists going through red-lights, while ignoring bad behavior by drivers. While in response cyclists will shout tar all drivers with the same brush and apologize for the bad behavior of some cyclists. Seriously, just agree to disagree.

Which is why is all the more important Israel don't bomb an entire population, for the crimes of a few. ---------- Post added 01-07-2014 at 19:09 ---------- The David Icke brigade have arrived, the Illuminati carried out 9/11, but then Michael Jackson found out about so they had to do him in. Etc etc. I bet the masons and the Bildenburg group had a hand in this as well.

Keep free bus travel for disabled people. But not for pensioners. If a student can't travel for free to do study and better themselves, why should a pensioner travel free to go to the market or whatever they do. In my opinion pensioners have a privileged position in society because they vote. It's time for more fairness.

Speaking about against the treatment of Palestine is not in anyway excusing or apologizing for these brutal murders. It's simply that a all out military attack on the Gaza strip as a result of this is simply wrong. People who had nothing to do with the murder or deplored the murder will be killed by that. Women, children, fathers and Grandparents. Israel is right to seek punishment as a result of the murders. But Netanyahu seems to think the way to get justice isn't via the courts, but to commit a crime against the people of Gaza. An eye for an eye, I've heard it called.

Somebody who runs a company into the ground may well end up being banned from running any company. Why don't be ban the people who organised this marathon from being in charge of any other public events. Seriously. Not paying for the water.

I have to be honest. Every time i saw the freedom riders I burst out laughing. I understand that it's a big issue but the sight of a bunch of old people rucking with police like seen in the student fees protest. Also the abuse sent in to BBC radio Sheffield my favorite was the man who was so angry at Toby Foster he was going to rip up his own bus pass. Seriously at times it looked like I was watching an episode of "Off their rockers". Ride on! Freedom riders! Ride on!

It's a disgrace. There is nothing more sickening that someone who has the potential to be a top writer, musician, speaker or businessperson being let down by the education system.

Surely we are all individuals. All we can do is ensure equality of opportunity and do our level best ensure everyone has a chance to fulfill there potential.

Harris is a revolting human being who's crimes are up with the very worst anyone could commit. In my opinion he should have a sentence between around 5 years.
