Cop who had £750.000 buried in his back garden GETS OFF WITH A CAUTION

04-12-2004 17:27

Inspector Norman Cox who had £750.000 of cash that his brother had earnt from his own private "Slave trade"
gets' of with a warning The spokesman stressed that "there was no suggestion Mr Cox had been directly involved in the money laundering operation". Well naturally whats the big three quarters of a million quid stashed in his back garden which was found by a special team from Kent investigating a mega money laundering scam which just happened to be run by his brother and nephew. You wouldn't want to waste money prosecuting a bent cop when you need every penny to harass and frame innocent demonstrators.

Canadians Protest Bush in Ottawa: US UK How Many Kids Did You Kill Today!

04-12-2004 15:04

Ottawa (November 30) - George W. Bush paid a presidential visit to Ottawa. He was met with a massive anti-war demonstration. You could certainly feel this special energy emanating from the large crowd gathering at Ottawa’s City Hall at noon for a march to Parliament Hill to express their discontent or perhaps a better choice of words would be outrage at the visit from Bush.

Do students in Edinburgh become more politicised?

04-12-2004 11:47

Edinburgh University is having a referendum on affiliating to NUS, the National Union of Students. In the website  http://wwwyes2nus.com the campaign for voting “yes” to join the NUS is presented, whilst on  http://www.saneonline.org.uk the opposition is mobilising.
Currently the EUSA- the Edinburgh Union Student Association- is not affiliated to the NUS, though the two organisations were historically connected. It has not been a member since 1979, when students voted in a referendum to leave. A referendum in 1984 decided to maintain that position.

Voting was also possible online under  http://www.esp.ed.ac.uk.

Comments re: The American Dream

04-12-2004 07:42

Is it not preferable for each one of us to be accountable and held responsible for our own actions? Should not Rumsfeld (prisoner abuse) and Kissinger (mass murder of civilians) be surrendered to the International Criminal Court of Justice for war crimes? Or should they hide behind the people – who are offered as targets instead?

Condoleeza Rice

All of this would be amusing but for the fact that people are dying. We would all like to ask Condy (her oil tankers notwithstanding) just what price Iraqi Oil against the life of one Iraqi child or one US citizen? Never in the history of the USA has it spawned a more dangerous group of clowns than George W and his neo-cons.

USUK DU fallout global.. UK no longer measuring after Halliburton take over.

04-12-2004 02:10

The pernicious effects of DU are now global with
reported increases in infant mortality in 20 regions
of Europe reported in the January 2004 Lancet medical
journal in the UK .... and
in the UK Guardian last spring throughout Europe. No
one can escape this horrendous amount of radiation now
globally contaminating the entire atmosphere at levels
that are 5 times higher than the legal allowable
exposure limit under US law. ... Today, the UK govt.
air monitoring station in Aldermaston, England, which
measures uranium in the air and must report those
levels each year has failed to provide any reports for
the past three years because they claim they are not
measuring it now. It is no coincidence but certainly
curious that Brown and Root (a Halliburton subsidiary)
has now taken over Aldermaston in England, a British
govt. facility....
