    They certainly sound like top blokes, and a definite credit to the Navy! It’s a shame all public services don’t follow their lead, they are a shining example.

    You should have told her she needs a licence to go phishing inland

    @paul178
    Most are pretty easy to spot:
    – Anything that is trying to grab your attention
    – Anything with a first name only
    – Email address you dont recognise
    – ZIP files or other suspicious attachment
    – Pictures named as being of a person (e.g heres a pic of my ****.jpg)

    Also, consider turning off HTML etc in email!

    The thing holding those pictures back is that they are tiny! Actually that goes for most interesting pictures of things on the web.

    It would probably be better to procure the CEC with the Type 26 if at all, and then as part of that fit it to the T45, since we wouldn’t get most of the benefits you listed until the T26 entered service anyway.

    Except it’s not a proper aircraft carrier, and it’s carrying sea planes. An angled deck style carrier should be feasible, just incredibly expensive.

    It’s a bit of a joke really as the parade seems from your pictures to be blocked from the front by a massive truck (and many a cop car I’d bet), the back by cops, and anyone who goes anywhere near the actual parade gets tackled to the ground by the police. Doesn’t leave much scope for involvement…

    Whilst it might be reasonable for the police to claim they were just demonstrating the Olympic wrestling, I’m fairly sure 2 on 1 doesn’t count as a sport 😎

    @kev35

    Because the police are not being accused of a crime, and so innocent until proven guilty does not apply. The comparison could be made, but to be accurate we would need to compare it not to an innocent person, but to a repeat offender who each time is found guilty, and is never given any punishment of any description after each conviction and is now in the dock again. What you propose then would create an endless cycle of “oh well they lied before, but this time it’ll be different this time”!

    Now young man EXACTLY how did you come by this info, or are you an insider with Thames Valley?

    @ppp

    Which info? That’s a very broad question.

    As the advert says,”Calm down, dear.” (Or seek a sense of humour transplant.) Your way-over-the-top, silly toilet example was asking for a sideswipe, and, since most people are aware that the toilet and crap production are normally inextricably intertwined, so Kev35’s comment was a wry analogy to that fact, but obviously went clear over the top of your head (made me laugh, by the way, Kev.)
    How about winding your neck in, and making sensible statements?

    These are all claims, not fact, as was his. If it’s such a bad example, do tell us why people should be allowed privacy in the toilet, but not on the phone? What makes you draw the line at the toilet and not at the phone? It seems very arbitrary!

    @kev35

    The police assurances are worthless because this is how rights are taken away. They start by saying it will just be against a small group that nobody will stand up for and then it widens. Our rights shouldn’t depend on the polce being generous enough to allow us to have them.

    As I’ve pointed out above, the concern is not about my privacy, but the privacy of the citizens of the UK as a whole. If you wish to run away from problems though that is your choice, but I believe problems should be resolved and our country made to be the best it can be 🙂

    @TonyT

    They need to be paid 30k starting off, the house prices are insane.

    Pretty soon cell phones will have a self destruct button.

    Blackberry and iphone have a secure wipe feature. Also on a Blackberry you get a couple guesses at the password before it gets secure wiped.
