RE: iPhone gun application accused of glamorising gun culture

But why even go there? What's the point? How does it accord with Apple CSR? With security concerns as they are \(think police shooting people, bombs, airport seciurity, massively increased CCTV, etc) I think the developers and Apple have got rocks on their head. Just another crap product extension with insufficient thought attached. Sorry ...

RE: MPs in fresh assault on alcohol ads

It's less the adverts than the mass distribution and availability of dirt cheap alcohol. As long as the supermarkets use it as a loss leader to drive foot fall and offer ridiculous discounts then people will continue to drink too much of it....both the binge drinkers and the responsible drinkers. Hvae sensible advertising by all means but target ...

RE: Government to reject calls for minimum alcohol price

So despite it costing £3bn a year the Govt still don't have the bottle to go for the advise of their most senior expert. Instead they'll try to look friendly and just stealth tax the alcohol with higher duty. Responsible drinker or not, it is probably true to say we could all benefit from drinking a little less. Why can I buy Jaguar lager ...

RE: Supermarkets hit back in cheap alcohol row

Excessive consumption of alcohol \(by a wide variety of socio economic groups) is a symptom of a wider malaise in our society that has not been adequately addressed by this or previous governments. Why are so many of us keen to turn to alcohol \(or drugs, or gambling, or pornography, etc) for our 'relaxing' time? None of the above is really ...

RE: BBC in fresh storm as 188 complain about Clarkson's lorry driver joke

Typical Clarkson always going for cheap laughs at the expense of others. Sure it can sometimes be funny but referencing the most heinous crime against people in fallen circumstances seems like a cheap shot to me....however I didn't see the programme so look at me writing in....what do I know?!

RE: Atheists clamber on board in Dawkins-driven ad campaign

Are the atheists sure of their position? "probably no God.." sounds more agnostic to me... It's interesting to see though that seemingly the least tolerant group of the Jesus Said advert \(i.e. the one that feels most compelled to respond with a contra campaign) are the card carrying atheists at the BHA. If Atheism promotes tolerance ...

RE: Tesco copies Asda's cut-price beer move

Absolute rubbish from the Tesco spokesman. It's the Stella in the fridge scenario. If it's there you're going to drink it. If it's not you're not. It's human nature and what serves retailers so well in pushing BOGOFS, 2 for 1's and other promos. Having a greater quantity of something means that most of us are more likely to consume more of ...

RE: Google joins world's top 10 brands as Microsoft slips

The UK has only 3 brands in the top 100! Where's the underlying strength and resilience in our economy that the Govt keeps spouting about - we don't seem to produce or make anything!

RE: EastEnders paedophile plot sparks over 200 complaints

I don't watch Eastenders so I haven't seen this storyline in context but I'd like to hear what the NSPCC have to say about it having been involved in its creation. This aside, it seems barmy to me to actively portray this kind of relationship on national TV at this time. Yes it might go in in real life but that doesn't make it right to showcase ...
