It’s all very well saying let’s not fuck things up whilst sitting in Devon, or the Charente for that matter.

 

Have you thought that the folks from N. Korea (where a quarter of the population were killed by US bombs) Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan and countless other recipients of some freedom, might consider things a bit fucked up already?

North Korea invaded the South which started the war.

Boris’’s girlfriend’s neighbours phone the police because they were so concerned for her well being, how very compassionate and decent of them to do the right thing..... then they sold the audio recording to the Guardian.

Whatever the going rate is I guess. They must have been so relieved that no harm had come to Ms Symonds.

I only ask because there has just been an hour long article on the wireless about this subject, there was a bloke from The News Agency on who said The Guardian are one of the only UK newspapers that won't pay for stories from the public.

Interesting bit of info Eggs, I never realised that. Even if the Guardian won’t shell out to the public, I bet a freelance hack would. Apparently, she’s a multi-million £££ heiress so obviously they didn’t need the money.
The thing that got on my nerves about it was the fact that they said they phoned the police because they were ‘concerned for her welfare’
I would have more respect for them if they just said... ‘we couldn’t believe our luck in getting an opportunity to stitch Boris up”. [emoji51]
