The Government's pandering to the Scum is threatening the very basis of the Constitution

BBC NEWS | Politics | Reid sentence attack 'unhelpful'

As John Ried jumps on the Scum's bandwagon of criticising judge's sentences, he is threatening the Constitution.
Tony B Liar has also been in on the pander-to-the-Scum bandwagon before, to the point where it's becoming difficult to discern who is actually running the country, The editor of the Scum, or B Liar's cabinet.
If John Ried does not like the sentences handed down by judges, as Home Secretary, he is in an advantageous position to change the law, such as mandatory sentences.
But he's probably not sure which seat on the Cabinet he holds any more, given that his staunch Blairism, combined with his comparitive lack of scandal (actually now that I thikn about it, a commendable lack) compared to the other Blairites, means he has been playing musical chairs in all the key Cabinet positions.

Steve Davis Northern Ireland's Youngest ever captain

A up-and-comer I've had my eyes on over the past year, or two, has been Ballymena boy, Steve Davis.
He has become David O'Leary's most (read: only?)consistent performer at Aston Villa, and has been named their Player of the Year. His eloquent pass set up David Healy's famous goal against England, and now he has moved to become Northern Ireland's youngest ever captain.

This caps a great year for the young lad, and hopefully a successful Villa team next term, will actually propel his profile to be mentioned among the likes of Wayne Rooney, and Cesc Fagregas as the new generation of Premiership talent.
