    Yes, I am generally sceptical.:) Just the way I was brought up, I suppose….you do like your bold typeface, don’t you?;)

    It was clearly stated on Channel 4 News yesterday evening, both during the news item on the bail hearing and by his lawyer during an interview later in the programme.

    Would you happen to have any evidence to contradict this?

    No, why should I?:confused:

    Apart from his lawyer, to whom you have referred, and the prison authorities and of course Mr Assange, no one knows the details of his detention – most certainly not Channel 4 news. And we might describe his lawyer as an “interested party”, mightn’t we?

    Blimey – £50 – 3 tattoos! Would anything have made you smile more for your £50? Still it’s whatever you are in to, so I hope you made the right choices.;)

    This from their website a little earlier….

    “…..at least three major UK papers The Guardian, The Telegraph, and the Daily Mirror have picked it up. The media are a lot more excited about this particular bone than we are, but that’s the magic of the Earhart mystery.”

    The italics are mine.

    I have no recollection of the tragedy. What an appalling effect it must have had, at that time. The scars of those whose family and friends perished will not have healed quickly.

    I certainly agree with your initial comments, but I don’t subscribe to the analysis in your final sentence.

    Two points to respond to:

    Firstly, if you are right about the possibility of universities dwindling, that can only be a good thing and should happen regardless – too many students at too many third grade “universities” studying pointless subjects.

    Secondly, education is not “free” elsewhere, or anywhere. The taxpayers pay for it and in the case of Wales and Scotland, English taxpayers subsidise the regional universities on top of the funding to their own universities.
