I think we agree ‘Errol’. . . . . . The man is a complete imbecile. . . . . Tell any Shop Keeper that IF they manage to catch any Shop Lifters, they will only get a fixed penalty notice that will pale into insignificance when measured against the Parking Tickets and Congestion Charges they and their customers are having to pay when attempting to do legitimate business. . . .

. . Charles Henry 1945-(diuturnity)

I don’t really know what everyone expected ‘Errol’. . . . . Why do they think all the ‘oldies’ are working down at B & Q ? . . . And who do they think has been paying for all the public sector ‘Early Retirements’ and all these extra holidays people have been given; that they all now think they are entitled to !? . . Father Christmas !!

. . Charles Henry 1945-(diuturnity)

That’s a bit harsh ‘Errol’. . . . I think he’s just misguided; . . . as many are. . . . The idea that the ordinary Iraqi could rid themselves os Saddam Hussein without the help of the Americans is fanciful. . . They will have a difficult enough task developing their democracy from their present position. . . I can’t stand Blair, but he was right to back Bush on this occasion. . .

. . Charles Henry 1945-(diuturnity)

They’ve been too busy covering their own backsides to concern themselves with the plight of the Elderly ‘Errol’. . . We haven’t had a more vindictive Government since Charles 1st or Cromwell. . . The Pensioners will not forget this betrayal. . .

. . Charles Henry 1945-(diuturnity)

Procurement! . . . Corruption! . . . . It’s like ‘Bacon and Eggs’ or ‘Sausage and Mash’ ‘Errol’. . . You rarely get one without the other. . . .
And the Revenue want people to expose V.A.T. Avoidance !!!???

. . Charles Henry 1945-(diuturnity)

I’m finding this all rather troubling ‘Errol’. . . . . Each time questions are asked of the man who makes no secret of his ambition to take over at the helm of this sinking ship; he spends an hour obfuscating ! . . . .You obviously have a much clearer grasp of his Budget Statement than the majority of Media Hacks. . . . . .

. . Charles Henry 1945-(diuturnity)

They are Men of Straw ‘Errol’. . . Eventually democracy will prevail. . . . The people couldn’t have done it alone. . .

. . Charles Henry 1945-(diuturnity)

It very much depends upon which Christmas you had in mind. . . . Your record is not much better than the Governments ‘Errol’. . . . . . . I think not. . . . .

. . Charles Henry 1945-(diuturnity)

We certainly need something to brighten us all up ‘Errol’. . . . Everywhere you look these days there’s incompetence, malingering and deceit. . . And we have a government that’s more concerned with looking after illegal immigrants and the phoney ‘poor’, than taking care of the elderly and the really vulnerable in society. . And when did you last do a days work to justify your existence? . . .

. . Charles Henry 1945-(diuturnity)

Well we’ll all know who to blame and who needs to be taken to Law when people start dying ‘Errol’ ! . . . That damned ‘Badger Hugging’ woman and the R.S.P.C.A. . . . And of course a weak government. . . There is a far greater risk to the human population from the Mycobacterium-bovis bacillus, than ever there will be from the H5N1 Bird Flu virus; . . .or there ever was from B.S.E.!!! . . . It is far more incideous !!! . . .

. . Charles Henry 1945-(diuturnity)

Yes it is ‘Errol’. . . . We can only hope the Liberal Media and Press begins to realise soon just what a ruthless adversary the US have been dealing with since 9/11. . . There will have to be a solution for all our sakes. . . . Nuclear weapons in the the hands of people with this mindset is not an option we can contemplate. . . All this just goes to prove the intent has always been there in some sectors. . .

Dear Editor,

Richard Osborne of Moredon in Wiltshire; like many others; seems to be determined to allow bigotry and sentiment to cloud the serious situation with Bovine tuberculosis and confuse the issue. Anyone in any doubt that the badger population needs to be seriously culled; and maybe yet many other specious like Roe Deer, need only to research the subject themselves. With the nature of TB and its protracted effects, his particular question about sheep is barely relevant because of their life span; and by and large horses are not domiciliary for long periods on the land like cattle. However that does not mean they cannot be affected.

Simple research will tell you Bovine tuberculosis (Tb) is caused by the bacterium, Mycobacterium bovis. Its primary host appeared to be cattle, but the organism has been isolated from a wide range of species, including deer, pigs, sheep, horses, dogs, cats, badgers and humans. However, humans and most other species are normally spillover hosts in which infection is not self-maintaining.

Transmission of M. bovis within and between species is thought to be mainly by the airborne route, but animals may also become infected if they ingest large numbers of the bacterium. Infected cattle are considered the main source of M. bovis infection for susceptible cattle. However, in recent years, the badger has emerged as a significant source of M. bovis infection for cattle in the UK and Ireland.

May I draw yours and everybody else’s attention to some quotes from Dr. Jerome Harms. University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1997.

Mycobacterium bovis the cause of Bovine Tuberculosis;

“In contrast (to 1 in 10 immunocompetent humans), nearly all cattle infected with M. bovis develop active disease and can transmit the organism to other animals or humans.”

“Recently, there have been many outbreaks of M.bovis caused tuberculosis in humans especially HIV+ patients. Most have occurred in countries where M.bovis is endemic in the animal agriculture population. Multi-drug resistant strains of M. bovis are now appearing as well. The significance of this TB threat from M. bovis has not been taken as seriously as the threat from Mycobacterium TB.”

“However, the scientific and medical community must not ignore the potential of an M.bovis TB epidemic.”

My own assessment is that there is absolutely no point at all in culling cattle, if we do not first radically reduce the invasion of their pasture by other infected species.

Yours

Charles Henry

This is nothing to joke about ‘Errol’. . . . We have the evidence yet again. . . . “Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely.". . .

He is the son of one of the finest journalists of the 20th century, a man with a decade of experience of his own in the City.

So when Jacob Rees-Mogg wrote to prospective voters in North East Somerset to wax lyrical about Gordon Brown’s failings over the economy, they might have been forgiven for assuming he would know his stuff.

But eagle-eyed readers of the letter and article sent by the Tory candidate to slam the Prime Minister’s handling of the economy spotted something familiar.

For in fact entire sections of Mr Rees-Mogg’s diatribe were unceremoniously nicked from The Sun.

You could well be right ‘Errol’. . . He can’t be much use to her now anyway. . And she’ll still get the house. . . They can always get together again at Christmas. . . But I think you should know they think this suggestion is ‘grotesque’.

. . Charles Henry 1945-(diuturnity)

That is certainly a very valid point ‘Errol’. . . Unfortunately that level of understanding doesn’t extend to the the News Rooms or The Cabinet Room table. . . They all seem to be only interested in engratiating themselves. . . .

. . Charles Henry 1945-(diuturnity)

Now ‘Errol’ I think you are just being facetious. . .
