All hail Donz, king of the trolls, lord of the short bus.

All hail Donz

You started off so well, but you forgot to put Sir inbeween hail and Donz.

I had to watch an old Bob & Bing film ' The Road to Persondalay"

It should be put in the rules of Thaivisa that any negative comments about Donz would result in fines and possible jail time.

I mean saying something bad about me is worse then calling your own mother a ####

I just had some letters delivered by the person person. :o

Payout for inmates forced off heroin

By Neil Tweedie

Last Updated: 7:00am GMT 13/11/2006

The Government was accused of "caving in" over drugs yesterday following the disclosure that the Home Office is about to pay out tens of thousands of pounds to prisoners because they were forced to stop taking heroin or other opiates in jail.

John Reid, the Home Secretary, was accused by the Tories of suffering a "massive failure of political nerve" in deciding to settle a test case involving six prisoners and former prisoners, rather than fighting it in the High Court.

The claimants' case is being funded by taxpayers through legal aid.

The inmates, who were dependent either on heroin or the heroin substitute methadone, claimed they suffered "trespass" and clinical negligence by the Prison Service in being forced to endure "short, sharp" detoxification programmes resulting in "cold turkey" symptoms.

They were said by their lawyers to be "upset" by the short time they were allowed to stay on opiate drugs while on remand or following the start of sentences.

They alleged breaches under Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights, which bans torture and inhuman or degrading treatment; Article 8, which protects private life; and Article 14, which prohibits discrimination.

Another 192 prisoners could be entitled to payouts at taxpayers' expense.

David Davis, the shadow home secretary, said the decision to settle stemmed from the Government's desire to avoid the embarrassment of being defeated by its own Human Rights Act, which incorporates the convention into English Law.

"Drugs are a scourge on society and completely undermine all our other efforts to fight crime," said Mr Davis.

"By doing this Dr Reid would be letting down the taxpayer, the victims of these offenders and the drug addicts themselves. The precedent would be disastrous.

"This would be a massive failure of political nerve by John Reid, and a massive failure in his core duty to protect the public."

The decision to allow the test case was taken in May by Mr Justice Langstaff, who stated: "All claim that their treatment was handled inappropriately and so they suffered injuries and had difficulties with their withdrawal."

The Home Office refused to confirm any settlements yesterday, claiming it could not comment on litigation still in progress, but it is expected that compensation levels and the number of prisoners entitled to pay-outs will be discussed at a hearing in London tomorrow or on Wednesday.

Private prison contractors who supervised some of the 198 claimants may also have to pay compensation.

The Prison Reform Trust said: "Addicts are ill and we should ensure the requirements of prison do not cut across need for treatment."

Last year, the European Court of Human Rights ruled that British prisoners should be able to vote, forcing a Government rethink.

News of the proposed drugs settlement followed criticism yesterday of a claimed 60 per cent cut in the Integrated Drug Treatment System, trumpeted by ministers as a way to reduce re-offending by getting offenders off drugs.

is that for real? are the poms going that bad, the prisoners rule the roost :o

I feel a rant coming on... but public decency, or semi-public decency in here, has prevented that.

I'll save it for the morning..... probably better then, and a good nights sleep is better than half hearted warm up :o

It's the same in Canada;

You can't have public toilets because junkies will shoot up in them. So instead they shoot up in the open and dump in shop doorways.

You can't use a payphone after 9pm because they are shut off to curtail drug dealing.

You can't force someone dying in the gutter with a needle in their arm to be detoxed because it violates their civil rights.

There are more people employed to remove needles from playgrounds than to cut the grass and trim the trees.

I'm really sick of having to build our neighbourhoods around these self-inflicted "victims".

There's my rant (heavily self-censored)

the prisoners rule the roost :D

Well.. it worked in oz.. :o

totster :D

If you adress me as Sir donz from now on then I will forgive you

Have you had a demotion from Lord?

the prisoners rule the roost :D

Well.. it worked in oz.. :o

totster :D

:D :D :D

:D :D :D

:D

BTW: Why is the ROTFLMAO Smilie called cheesy... I find this insensitive to Cheese.

One would think by all this wit Shakespeare himself had been here to ????

:o:D

In the morning sounded like a good idea at the time.... but in the morning I just don't have the gusto... night time is better, especially after a couple of beers, not drunk, just a couple of beers, drunk may come later if I can stay awake that long :D

Do you know what really grabs my shit pipe about the PC brigade, it's all fair and well to have respect for other nations and other cultures, and I do remember the bad old days 'Love thy neighbour' was probably one of the most objectionable sit-coms on TV (that's tele, not TV)... full of words like 'honky' and 'jungle bunny'.... should have run for one episode at the most..... but now we are faced with the situation of some little tree-hugger who thinks that nothing should be circumspect and wants 'Baa baa black sheep' changed into 'Baa baa rainbow sheep'

The pendulum has swung too far...... when it swings back, it may swing back all the way.

I love Thailand.

Rant over.

call me non PC if you want but whenever a large lady turns me down I just think to myself "<deleted> off lezzer, I was doing it for a bet " :o
