    London Bridge

    We had that option with imprisonment for public protection, that meant a prisoner could not be released until they were assessed to no longer be a risk to the public. Unfortunately that option was removed in 2012 to help relieve prison overcrowding without having to finance the cost of more...

    Wembley in the EFL

    The playoffs only had a few days to sell tickets which probably stopped us hitting 40K. Reckon if we got there again, in any competition, we could shift 30K or more.

    General Election 2019 thread

    I think before its shouted down someone needs to explain why the rail fares in this country are so much higher than everywhere else in Europe. To me that suggests either someone is making a lot of money or our costs are out of control.

    The boundary on the a45, assuming the sign is in the right place, is right after the Land Rover garage and the rugby club is the turning a few feet later. Personally if its that close to the boundary it doesn't make any difference to me personally but I know some people are insisting they won't...

    Would be good but I can't imagine the council ever giving planning permissions there. Are any of the big warehouses up that way empty?

    3 new sites identified by SISU/Council

    If they had a list of 18 sites which they've shortened to 6 got to assume it includes sites outside the city boundary. I'm struggling to come up with 6 inside it let alone 18! I would guess at Woodlands, somewhere around Warwick Uni, phase 2 of the Airport development, by the MTC, the site the...

    Have you done the test yet? I've had health issues for a few years now and nobody has ever mentioned sleep. Went to the doctors with something unrelated to my other health issues, the fact that I fell asleep at the traffic lights and was worried about driving, and got sent to the sleep clinic...

    If we win the replay, who do we want ?

    Could be. Reckon Boston v Rochdale will be on. Maybe Crewe v Eastleigh or Hartlepool v Exeter if they want a non-league team. How many replays are televised, just 2?

    From the latest supporters group meeting minutes. If it was anyone but SISU you'd probably say it sounds quite positive but past experience tells us not to believe anything until they start building!

    If we win the replay, who do we want ?

    The lowest team still in so we have a chance of winning and some TV money. If not then Spurs away as it will be a new stadium to tick off the list for pretty much everyone. If we're going local I'd rather Leicester than Villa. Don't really want to get done 4 or 5 nil or worse by Villa.

    Can't stand Chakrabarti but have to admit she came across well this morning. Although anyone is going to look good against Johnson's car crash.

    Just to make sure I've got this right are we saying: 16 year olds getting the vote - unacceptable 10 year olds being executed by the state - acceptable

    That was particularly disappointing from Marr. Johnson and Patel had already tried that line of attack yesterday and been rubbished, Marr should have been aware of that and been able to call him out on it straight away.

    We had that, it was called Imprisonment for Public Protection and was introduced in as part of the 2003 Criminal Justice Act. They were abolished in 2012.

    Don't watch I'm a Celeb but from what's being said on twitter Haskell is coming across as a complete dick, who would have guessed?!

    I see Patel has tried to politicise the London Bridge attack and blame it on Labour but has managed to get her facts wrong.

    London Bridge

    Being realistic if capital punishment is going to be reintroduced it is going to take years of debate, legal challenges etc. The more pressing issue is why are people convicted of these crimes being allowed to wander the streets. If, as has been claimed, it is purely due to budget cuts that is...

    General Election 2019 thread

    Not at all. I'm saying the suggestion that anyone who is struggling only has themselves to blame is wide of the mark yet seems to be suggested regularly on here. Unless you have a time machine handy we can't change what Blair and Brown did, and I certainly didn't vote for them so I'm not taking...

    Either way the police will never find it after he did such a good job of hiding it.
