5.3.14 Expressing Regret is NOT an Apology - and Other News



Cockatiel Rescue



Seven fire fighters, a PCSO and the RSPCA fucking about trying to capture an escaped Cockatiel is simply fucking farcical.  If this is where my taxes go, then I really ought to withhold them because this is lunacy.  I don't give a cunting fuck whether the fire service perceives animal rescue as part of its remit, there are limits to what constitutes an emergency - and cockatiel capture is not one of them!  The stupid thing is that the first appliance had ladders that were not long enough to reach the tree - the temporary home of the bird - and so another vehicle equipped with a cherry picker was needed.  Madness.


Cunt of a Kid?



I have read the ludicrous reports of how Rachel Canning is suing her parents. The problem child is demanding loads of money, and I hope that the judge's initial dismay and comments are retained when he hears the case soon.  The 18-year-old is having a laugh and is no doubt being egged on by the parents of her friend, the father 'happening to be a lawyer'.   The parents may or may not be overly strict (although by most accounts, they are perhaps over indulging her - well, up until she left home anyway.  The details are one massive "she said, they said" but the overriding thing is that she is 18, and seems to expect that she can have everything she wants, behave how she chooses, and present the bill to her parents.  Sadly I have to say "grow up" to someone who is in theory already an adult.


Sugar Tax



How fucking stupid can you get?  "Very" it would seem, based on the utterance of the Chief Medical Officer for England, Dame Sally Davies.  "We have normalised being overweight.  We may need to introduce a tax on sugar." Twat!


Louise Casey



I read with mild amusement and bemusement the wording for the story in The Sun about efforts to deal with domestic violence.  The terminology and wording from the Political Editor (Tom Newton Dunn) is maybe tongue-in-cheek.

SHAMELESS squads will today be ordered into homes to remove the men who beat up women and children.  Troubled Families tsar Louise Casey is stepping up the fight against domestic violence.

I think the job title of "Troubled Families tsar" is silly, and I'd rather hope she's not literally "stepping up the fight" is she's against violence.


Parking Tickets



The driver went to fetch help after his car broke down in Brighton, but the parking wardens circled and saw an easy victim.  Preying on drivers in such a way shows pure cuntism.


Another Cunt



23-year-old Liam Backhouse was filmed repeatedly throwing a Staffordshire bull terrier puppy at a wall.  It's been renamed and taken in by the RSPCA, and the thug who was doing this has been jailed for 80 days.  That is simply not long enough, either to deal with such cuntish behavior or to deter others from mistreating dogs, which have a tought time of it these days.  It is no wonder that many are the cause of injuries when treatment of animals is in some cases deplorable.  Why was this fucker not given six months?


Saying Sorry



It seems that 'Sorry' is indeed the hardest word to say.  Sir David Nicholson is retiring, having gained a knighthood and a pension of £110,000 per year, after his stewardship of the NHS.  He presided over the Stafford Hospital scandal (where 1200 people died needlessly) and apparently 'regrets'  various things. This does NOT constitute any sort of apology.




Similarly, Harriet Harman manages to belatedly offer (via a spokesperson) a pathetic confirmation of regret, WITHOUT actually apologising.  When will twats get real, and realise that 'regret' over doing something, not doing something, saying something or simply about something is NOT the same as saying sorry!
