Bday Prang

He was caught pretty much red handed, he had "images" on his computer. No way could he have been found innocent. Even if he was found not guilty on some technicality his behaviour was abhorrent, his contract would have had clauses regarding causing disrepute and unacceptable behaviour. They could easily have sacked him without repercussions, they chose not to. They were protecting him for as long as possible

That may be true , but he knew what he was guilty of and he knew full well what the probable outcome would be. Any man of the "highest character" would have done the decent thing and resigned instantly, he chose not to, preferring to trouser the £200,000 that the BBC are now asking him to return. I have no sympathy for him or the BBC they deserve each other

He actually recieved a pay rise of around £40,000 whilst suspended, I won't be holding my breath whilst I wait for him to hand it back either. He is apparently also due a pension of £300,000 per year rolls of the tongue easily, but its nearly £6000 per week for gods sake !

I know its over 3 years after the event but I just read this and I am speechless . What possible reason could anybody have for trolling a thread about gods greatest gift to mankind ? Must have been a vegan, a Jew or a Muslim either way I think a life ban would have been the only acceptable punishment for such blasphemy

For me this is arguably one of the best threads on the entire forum Thanks to @Crossy for starting it. I don't bother with western food generally but as a Brit I will still take any opportunity to indulge in a full English of which Bacon is the primary component. I have often considered having a go myself but never seemed to get round to it , and then an Australian guy near me started doing it semi - comercially so I just got lazy and bought it off him. not cheap but better than the miserable offerings from CP and the "american " bacon tey sell in the local Makro he also bemoaned the lack of availability of a decent slicing machine and was considering importing one. He's packed it in now and I think he has recently returned to Aus due to ill health So my enthusiasm has been reborn, If it works out for me I may be sorely tempted to try my hand at sausages next or even black pudding

Yeah right , if you managed to find your local crack house you would be seen immediately as a potential victim or source of funds, you would not be accepted as a customer. Pedophiles due to the nature of their activities generally do strive to operate as covertly as possible, us ordinary people would indeed never know anything about it all if it wasn't for the mistakes they make and the endeavours of the police

New security systems etc regarding the monitoring of the use of computers and cyber security generally are continually being developed and upgraded by "experts". Only to be beaten just as quickly by the equally expert and highly motivated hackers some of whom are barely old enough to drive a car. They manage quite well without their computers powere usage being supplemented by dedicated power stations. This and your previous post display a child like naivity

But would at least be able to achieve something , IE care of his ailing mother. His activist activities will achieve nothing except his incarceration or worse

She must be of advanced years , he could have just put his crusade on hold until nature takes its course

I don't know anymore about this than you and I don't particularly like the tone of your post, Just because child prostitutes don't appear on ones radar does not mean they do not exist, It does not even have to be child "prostitutes" Have you ever considered the possibility that children could even be abducted for the purposes of providing victims for these perverts? I also have absolutely no idea were such depravity takes place but again it does not mean that it never happens. As an example , try thinking of it like an addiction to hard drugs, You and I like most people have absolutely no idea where to source Heroin, but put a hardened addict into any city or large town and they will find a source and a collection of like minded individuals within the hour.

Well said indeed, Credit where its due , its not often I agree with you , but I have no problem admitting it when I do, Personally I think there should be some sort of system in place where people like him ( celebrities and famous personalities etc) should face justice without their celebrity status being revealed. In an earlier hearing the judge uttered words to the effect that there was no doubt as to his character as he was known as man of the finest character (despite his "activities") I think it was when granting bail. He should have been referred to simply as MR H.E until after he was sentenced. and reporting restrictions put in place. although I understand its difficult these days

And who is to say he wouldn't , just for a moment lets forget his carefully manicured "Mr BBC" image and think of him as just another pedo. It probably starts with a few inappropriate thoughts which then develop into sexual fantasies, then he moved on to looking at photo's probably alone and probably not actually illegal ones. Then having made contact with another like minded individual he started paying money for the photos which began to get stronger and stronger in nature. What would be next? videos presumably, and then further emboldened and seeking "more" visiting child prostitutes would be a further step in the wrong direction. Had he not been caught when he was who knows what depravity his unnatural sexual urges would have lead him to get involved in.

I read somewhere that he is entitled to a huge gold plated BBC pension, in the region of £300,000 per year, He'll survive

Real activists stay and fight , he has chosen to run away , He has now lost any credibility or influence he may have had. Should have just agreed to keep his mouth shut, he could then have looked after his mother. his political protests will never amount to anything significant, especially once he leaves. He is wasting his time and acting selfishly Where will he go to anyway ? his options are limited unless he has some secret wealth, Dubai is not cheap

Thailand has a huge prostitution industry catering for just Thais which totally dwarfs anything avaiable to westerners in the tourist ghettos, and yes they set it up and developed it all by them selves no westerners were involved. It was merely a natural progression that the industry would evolve to cater for the needs of foreigners once that need was identified The Thais, like most people, have alway had a healthy dislike of indians and arabs but to blame this on caucasion males is nothing short of the usual self flagellating woke nonsense. And to suggest that any comments made on this forum have any influence on Thai attitudes to Indians and Arabs or anything else for that matter is absolute rubbish, I find it a bit weird that you seem to consider sex with a prostitute a "sexual conquest" there is no conquering involved when one is paying for it I thought everybody was aware of that There are many establishments catering exclusively for various single nationalities Japanese , Koreans , Chinese, even those that cater exclusively for politicians, military men , even trawler men have their dedicated venues same goes for Arabs and Indians, have you considered that people of all races like to spend their free time relaxing in the company of people similar to themselves ? Or is that concept too horrendously racist for you accept? anyway to suggest that this is all due to the outrageous racist attitudes of caucasion males is nothing short of ridiculous. Although sadly totally predictable and inline with the usual "enlightened" woke nonsense that we hear daily When I hear Thais protesting in the streets shouting "from the river to the sea" or perhaps shouting some anti putin sentiment I might change my opinion regarding our influence on them , but I certainly won't be holding my breath whilst I wait

Why shouldn't I ? Take out the obvious sarcasm from my remark and I would have been applauded for making such a statement. So is only one form of bias acceptable ? that doesn't sound very inclusive or diverse to me

A Plan ? are you serious ? This is "Broken Britain " you are talking about. There are, no doubt, plenty of plans. Most of which are shrouded in secrecy due to their nature, none of them are for the benefit of the electorate. This "government" is very quickly approaching "survival mode" fighting for their life. Actually , its quite an achievement after just a few months of scraping through an election on the strength of a protest vote and having had , as they continually remind us, 14 years to prepare

From a link you were provided with by another member...." In response, the Ministry of Justice points out eligibility for the scheme is based on the offence, not the offender, I simply took it at face value. Your posts, generally appear to indicate that you consider Starmer and his minions to be completely and absolutely infallible, I might be wrong but I don't think I have seen you make one criticism of anything he has said or done, Are you concerned about facing the full force of the law too ? or just a good citizen who has quickly fallen into line ?

Ok RIP to the father, why do you call him a POS. From what I read in the OP It appears he was killed attempting to protect her, are you privvy to other information ?

It is a very well known scam that has been in operation for a long time, You need to bear in mind that lists of peoples addresses and other details are easily available, for a price , to those who want them There are many people who are addicted to internet shopping , some of them are receiving many parcels everyday, its highly unlikely that they can keep track of all the packages that they receive. Its simply a numbers game for the scammers, how many succesful 900 baht scams per day do they need to generate a healthy income 2 or 3 would be enough

He no doubt has an army of "diversity consultants" ready to scramble into action at a moments notice. I'm sure Putin is scared stiff that he too may face the full force of the law We have little military might to direct at anybody these days and an army of correctly pronouned conscripts which will of course have to fulfill diversity and disablement quotas ( including LGBGT of course) is hardly going to worry anybody, although the fear of being bummed might put a few prospective aggressors off,

How could anybody possibly be "proud" ? The refusal of the "extreme left wingers" to criticise anything that Starmers lot dream up is quite bizarre, unless they too are fearful of facing the full force of the law

Perhaps the decision on who to release should take into account the offender and their personal circumstances as well as the offence they commited, maybe releasing only those who had access to accommodation and support from their families would have been a better idea. Not exactly rocket science but evidently well beyond the grasp of the probation service who have a history of releasing dangerous violent criminals back into society were they can reoffend at their lesiure

I would seriously expect foreign criminals who are members of the "alphabet" communities to be given priority over everybody else. of course

Why reserve it for those guilty of "serious" crimes ? A zero tolerance approach is the best option,
