    Adam Johnson

    No offence, mate but you need to join the rest of us in the 21st century. The views you express are excusing a crime in all the usual ways. He broke the law and will get his punishment. Given his age, fame, relationship status etc he deserves no sympathy. When he comes out he will still be a...

    The EU referendum

    I can't help thinking the EU needs Britain in to stay viable. If the EU collapses I am very worried about the consequences. The Balkans descends into chaos. Russia starts taking chunks of Eastern Europe. We've been there before and had a century of wars and cold wars. I know there is NATO etc...

    Adam Johnson

    BTW the girlfriend had already finished with him. She went with him to court as a friend not a partner. So, she deserves no criticism as a gold digger IMO

    Things you like and dislike about your missus

    I think you are still in the anal stage. The females I live with have much better toilet etiquette I'm afraid.

    The revenant

    No, no, no. The most popular is not the best otherwise things like Dumb and Dumber would win Oscars and idiots would win talent contests! Oh wait ... The awards are chosen by experts. The masses have no taste. I find these awards shows good recommendations for what to see rather than the crap...

    Things you like and dislike about your missus

    I am half Welsh, half English. Like all other halvies I have met I support Wales at rugby. It's just a primal scream. A remnant of rebellion in an oppressed nation. It is actually fuelled these days by the perceived lahdidah nature of most English rugby fans, very middle class and condescending...

    'I judge children by their names'

    As I said agree to disagree. I have not backtracked at all, merely clarified for people who were not clear about my very consistent viewpoint. No law was broken or they would have faced charges. Others have resorted to personal slurs. It is simply not true to say that everyone who breaks the law...

    'I judge children by their names'

    We agree their actions were negligent. The law is a very different beast. It is not easy to even get a legal definition of child neglect that you could feel confident would stand up in court. That's what court cases argue over. U.K. Law does not expect us to predict or foresee all dangers. It...

    Don't think so. If you want to find where I did?

    'I judge children by their names'

    You're entitled to your opinion. That is not a fair summary of my views so I'm wasting my time. I have never said child neglect is not against the law. I have said defining it and making a case to prove it is very difficult. You are unable or unwilling to grasp the nuance of my points so let's...

    How do you bet?

    I have never done a real bet ever. It does not appeal to me. I have been to a casino a couple of times and that was ok. However, I am still waiting for the Villa fan to pay me £10 when we had a bet on Villa going down last season.

    'I judge children by their names'

    It would depend on the circumstances. How many children are injured or die when not wearing a seatbelt? Should parents be prosecuted for that? It's what police, crown prosecution service and courts are there for to judge the circumstances. My instinct is to be merciful and I think prison is for...

    'I judge children by their names'

    We will just have to agree to differ. This is my last word ... A foolish and stupid mistake was made by possibly foolish and neglectful people. Nothing can be gained from prosecuting them. Their punishment is a lifetime of bitter anguish. You would like that to be spent in a cell. I beg to differ.

    'I judge children by their names'

    They were in the garden, as it happens. The restaurant was 50 yards from their room in the garden of the exclusive holiday village. Let's just leave it. We are not going to agree.

    'I judge children by their names'

    A court would not look just at the outcome but whether the action was reasonable before not after the event. There would be a huge argument between 2 sets of lawyers about the reasonableness of the action. That's if it made it to court. Do you recall the dingo took the baby case? No good came of...
