Wanted:one to run one's royal bath F/T

Picture:The Times

By Royal Appointment only...
Running a bath it appears now seems an arduous a task as trying to wean pigs on caviar.
A quote from The Daily Mail carries Her Majesty could use your assistance to:
"put in the plug, turn on the tap and check the temperature of the water when the bath is full"
 The seemingly light royal task is advertised on the Royal Household website with a salary package of  £14,200 p.a. While it may not a golden royal sum, it offers one Royalty access...albeit from the bottom of ladder.

Her Majesty should be commended for creating job opportunities during this destitute economic times.

Lord Prescott to take a swing at Police Commissioner Role

Listening to the news Prezza was going to run for the newly created  Police and Crime Commissioner role in May, was like having metal kiss your teeth. What is with retired politicians flaunting their political heavyweight around like in a boxing ring?. Noted for his quick temper which could sometimes be violent(who could forget the 2001 punch pictured) and inept ability to string sentences without grammatical flaws, this former amateur boxer could certainly land some off ring punches with undesirable consequences.

Girls as young as 13 given contraceptive implant without parents' knowledge

This week we learnt up to nine schools in Southampton have been fitting young girls with contraceptive implants in a bid to curb the rising rate of teenage pregnancies in the region. Of course this created wide furore with the parents as they had not been informed or consulted. Well what is the probability that a 13year old will tell the parents they are engaging in sexual activity with their partners? As grotesque and morally wrong as it may sound, these yung unz are at it like rabbits and usually unprotected, hence the escalating rate of teenage pregnancies. As quoted in The Telegraph, teenage pregnancies have now dropped by 22% in Southampton area since the launch of sexual health services in schools. Though a small fraction, but a drop nevertheless.

While it may not be a long term solution for the curbing of STIs amongst these experimental teens, the problem of teenage pregnancy appears to be tackled. Critics have lambasted the initiative as promoting underage sex and promiscuity...clearly these have just crawled from underneath a stone and are in blissful oblivion to the current media sexualisation of almost everything. Children these days are  exposed to the glamorisation of sex at almost every turn and corner. Idolised stars with a huge teen fan base should be the ones accused of promoting licentiousness and amorality; not health-workers trying to prevent children having children.

Bideford bids farewell to prayers

It comes as little surprise that prayers in a predominant Christian country has now been banned from council meetings in Bideford- Devon. This comes after portly atheist Clive Bone (pictured) picked up a bone with the local councillors over the exclusiveness of prayers for non religious peoples,  taking his case to the high court which he later won.

Anything goes in England really...I mean we are talking about a Christian nation which has seen some councils ban the use of words Christmas lights in favour of a more inclusive winter lights. Ah! A country slowly loosing it's foundation and soul to suit the fleeting desires of fickle humans and the dregs of humanity.
