The latter part shows the vicious circle some are in.
You need an address to register with Jobseekers club, you cannot get or look for a job as you have no address
Plus you cannot (as I used to in my thankfully brief times of looking for work ) just walk in and look.at the board and say " I'll give that a go"
Nowadays you have to attend several meetings then sign a contract agreeing you will apply for endless jobs you do not want and will not get in the hope that you get the job you actually want ( and some money in the meantime)
The last time I became unemployed was a shock to me as I was told to do all of the above and attend clubs to show me how to apply for jobs ( which I had already perfected long before )
I didn't re attend the Job Centre ( or whatever it was called ), claimed no money, used a sizeable chunk of my late wife and my savings and got a job under my own steam
I feel sorry for those who genuinely want to work as it is not made easy for them. |

Rightly or wrongly (given the fact that a poor innocent girl died) he is appealing against the fact that the judge placed too much emphasis on his previous bad character, his lack of remorse and his failure to appear for sentencing.
Whilst to you and me the first is not good and the second and third are deplorable, they are not in themselves reasons to sentence him to a longer than normal sentence.
Whilst he clearly went with the intent to kill, it appears he never actually intended to kill the little girl.
The fact that he did is deplorable and all his actions are something you and I can never understand.
However the judge is different and should ensure the case is judged on it's merit, not on passion.
All that being said, I hope he rots in jail until his dying day and lives a long life to make sure of it
Law allowing of course |

The prosecution has a KC so it is his right to have a person of equal stature represent him.
Human rights have come on a long way since the Victorian times, or even since the miner's strikes of the '80's.
Persuade you should bring your views up to date to match ?

Reply | Would you go all out for Conner Roberts free in the summer?
at 20:50 20 Nov 2024
Connor is 29
Kyle Walker is 34
If Connor should be drawing his football pension and hobbling making furniture on the side, then Kyle Walker should be in the nursing home for old players, rather than outpacing many other players in the EPL !
Connor has a good few years left in him yet and would be an excellent signing |

I put up two young people in my house for a short time earlier this year in order to give them a boost and enable them to find work.
The lack of respect they treated my home with (their bedroom and leaving piles of dishes etc ) and staying in bed until all hours, made me glad I didn't rent out my property to their kind.
They have returned home to one of the young person's parental home and that lack of respect has been replicated.
Also their lack of willingness to look for a job shocks me.
I do not believe all youngsters are like this for one minute, but it was an eye-opener for sure |

Agree.
Even ST holders like myself are hard pushed to go most games.
Trouble is even when the team starts doing a little better, the overhaul feeling of one step forward two steps back that the owners have forced us to endure the past 8 years or so takes the enthusiasm out of attending.
Hopefully once the Yanks are gone we will see a change in momentum and with it attendance |

Very sad and cynical view of people you have.
Just starting to get very cold and you suggest people go live in a tent ? |

There is no moral dilemma.
A barrister, lawyer, whatever, is like a doctor.
They take on their role to do their best for their client whether that be the CPS or the accused.
Our legal system has many faults but is probably still the best in the world.
Look at that crackpot country US or many countries where a fair trial is just a pipe dream |

Same here.
My parents rented all their married lives.
Treated the property as if it were their own.
I think the majority of people still do.
Sadly a large minority dont respect other people's property, which probably reflects the change in our society |

Haven't got the power to dictate to anyone sonny.
But certainly have the right to answer a self centred loudmouth like you.
Be interesting to meet up one day.

100% agree.
Best site especially since admin got rid of certain posters.
Need stronger admin at times, but definitely best by a country mile |

In fairness I just read your post and agreed with the first part and had even thought of Newcastle ( although on a totally different scale ) as a great example of how to handle investment wisely.
However I do think that we should start off strengthening the first team before hopefully rebuilding the academy to what it was
Bringing on our own local players is key to our future success as a club though |

Just my opinion, but they have got several years of ( IMHO ) mismanagement off the field to put right.
The only blessing ( as far as I know ) is that we will not be hugely in debt when the change happens.
I would be happy for us to stabilise over the next year or two before making a decent attempt at getting promoted.
Plus hopefully the football will improve and be more entertaining |

Without defence lawyers doing their job to the best of their ability, we may as well get out the ducking stool and go on the principle that those that drown are innocent |
