notmyopinion: Herr Farrage and the purple prose
http://blog.notmyopinion.net/2014/05/herr-farrage-and-purple-prose.html
When I need your opinion, it will be assigned to you. Or something like that. Maybe. Monday, May 26, 2014. Herr Farrage and the purple prose. Reply to a home office "go home" campaign. It's been a strange election campaign. Lots of things are wrong with the economy, with the country, with Europe, and with the world. And yet, to hear the media, you'd think that the only problem was too much immigration. But that nice, smiley Mr Farrage has a point, doesn't he? The figures show that most. One of them. ...

notmyopinion: The real reason for payment terminals in A&E?
http://blog.notmyopinion.net/2013/12/the-real-reason-for-payment-terminals.html
When I need your opinion, it will be assigned to you. Or something like that. Maybe. Monday, December 30, 2013. The real reason for payment terminals in A&E? That the government want to start charging migrants when they go to Accident and Emergency. Doctors have pointed out that this will cost more than it raises. But wouldn't it be handy in a privatised health service? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Did I mention I like coffee? Not my opinion at gmail. View my complete profile. Our Man in Tirana.

notmyopinion: Please may I use the facilities?
http://blog.notmyopinion.net/2010/10/please-may-i-use-facilities.html
When I need your opinion, it will be assigned to you. Or something like that. Maybe. Saturday, October 16, 2010. Please may I use the facilities? I went to look up the opening hours of a local Barclays Bank branch, and I noticed there was a wee tab I could click on, called "Facilities". Wondering what facilities the branch offered, I clicked on it. I'm still slightly mystified. But I wonder what they would do if someone came in asking to use their facilities. At least they are open on Saturdays.

notmyopinion: #superinjunction
http://blog.notmyopinion.net/2011/05/superinjunction.html
When I need your opinion, it will be assigned to you. Or something like that. Maybe. Sunday, May 22, 2011. Injunctions are bad enough, the story goes, but superinjunctions are a step too far in a free society. Are they, though? What is actually going on? One law for the rich and famous, and another for the rest of us? In France there is a different approach. The press turns a blind eye when the rich and famous have extra-marital flings. That, they consider, is their own. affair. Public fi...Private indiv...

notmyopinion: Never believe it until it's been officially denied
http://blog.notmyopinion.net/2013/06/never-believe-it-until-its-been.html
When I need your opinion, it will be assigned to you. Or something like that. Maybe. Saturday, June 01, 2013. Never believe it until it's been officially denied. It's official. The government has denied they are privatising the courts in the UK. At least they won't "engage in the 'wholesale privatization' of courts in England and Wales." So it's just retail privatization then! More later. I think I'll be blogging a bit more these days. Time to let the politicians know how bad an idea this is.

notmyopinion: Charity begins at home?
http://blog.notmyopinion.net/2014/02/a-few-days-back-i-noticed-daily-mail.html
When I need your opinion, it will be assigned to you. Or something like that. Maybe. Monday, February 17, 2014. Charity begins at home? Recently I noticed the Daily Mail had a front-page article calling for the UK Foreign Aid budget to be spent on flood damage within the UK. Today I realised they have made it into a petition! I'm slightly sickened that the opportunistic rabble-rousers at the Mail think it's appropriate to attack some of the world's poorest people in such an unnecesary way. Picture: Flick...

When I need your opinion, it will be assigned to you. Or something like that. Maybe. Monday, May 26, 2014. Euro NI: UKIP came 7th. So how did GB's main parties do over in the colonies - sorry, Northern Ireland, where the electorate are trusted to vote for people, rather than parties, and where the voters (not party officials) decide who gets elected? I decided to eliminate those confusing local parties, and produce a short list based on Number 1 preferences:. Herr Farrage and the purple prose. We have a ...

http://blog.notmyopinion.net/2015_05_01_archive.html
When I need your opinion, it will be assigned to you. Or something like that. Maybe. Thursday, May 07, 2015. Just got around to watching the Northern Ireland Party Leaders Debate. I can't remember when I last heard so much whataboutery. From a single person. I'm struggling to think of a single positive thing the DUP representative said. It's depressing. Can do it, why not the BBC? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Did I mention I like coffee? Not my opinion at gmail. View my complete profile. Our Man in Tirana.
