Should the relaxation of the rules over Christmas be cancelled?I fear that all of the people filling Oxford street and all of the other cities will be overwhelming our wards in January was it worth it. Many will not be here next xmas. So lets spend some time grieving for them it could have been avoided. If we hadn't a primeminister obsessed with his own personality cult and need to be popular Such a tragedy nonetherless, these were peopleplease please feel their grief, feel the love. decisioins made on finance caused deaths.It was ever thus. I feel your grief truly.ViewDate:

Do you have confidence in the test, track and trace strategy?I would have been more convinced if they had involved local health services rather than spending millions in the private sector with Dido Harding whose record with talk talk was not good but married to a Tory MP so thats ok except nothing happened apart from private companies making millions. same old same old tories. Piggies round the trough. and total failure of track and trace.ViewDate:

Will you be visiting your local pub this weekend?I like a pub as much as anyone but sadly when the drinks in the wits are out and social- distancing is the first casualty. I think we are all ready seeing the results of crowded pubs and raves in the north. I know its a drag but it is what it is this will drag on as long as we let it but we will face more lockdowns and if we hope to have anything like a decent Xmas including for business and retail we need to get off the beaches and start using some common sense. There are people in this world living in far worse conditions show some backbone.ViewDate:

Do you think Camilla should be crowned queen?If these two people had been given to freedom to marry the person of their choice many years ago we could have avoided so much drama and tragedy I for one am happy they finally got the partners they were clearly destined for., God bless you both.ViewDate:

Speakers Corner CommentsNot sure this is something for speakers corner but really felt so sad for people who had arranged very large -wedding down to very small wedding and now to not even that, it's heart breaking and with so little notice I can see girls crying on Mum's shoulder with beautiful dress no one will see. It isn't good enough we should be able to do better and as for Eid we could have done better there. It they had told the rest of us that xmas is cancelled at 9.30 pm on xmas eve how would we have coped a turkey in the oven to feed ten and only three can come, what's more the shops are closed so the rest of the family will be on .cheese and biscuits. And not a sign of humilty in sight from any one of them, we are doing well state of the art this wondrerful results that none of which is happenning highest rate of deaths in Europe from the 6th richest country in the world. They are a damned disgrace from beginning to now no ifs no buts stop the bluster stop the damned sound bites and start governing if you can't throw the towel and give the job to someone else.ENOUGH ENOUGH ENOUGH.ViewDate:

RacismDonald Trump should have learned years ago better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool than open it and remove all doubt. If Boris Johnson hasn't yet comdemned Trump it will no doubt because he is waiting for Dominic Cumming to tell him what to say.ViewDate:

What are your views on TV Charity Begging Adverts?It isn't just this country that is being asked to give, these appeals are international some nations are more generous than others. So sorry that your tea time should be bombarded with begging adverts fro m people who have nothing. Turn the telly off and put a Disney video on.ViewDate:

Do you think Camilla should be crowned queen?I wouldn't have a problem with her being Queen, if he had enjoyed the same freedom of choice that his sons had when choosing their wives she would have probably been Queen anyway, which in no way denigrates the contribution that Princess Diana made to the modernising of the Royal family but the facts are what they are.ViewDate:

Step back in time: to 1963When I think of 1963, in spite of all the wonderful happenings including the birth of my first daughter everything is clouded by the assassination of John Kennedy. I can't think of that year without great sadness.ViewDate:

Speakers Corner CommentsOh so true Billy and was ever thus, every Mp is looking out for directorships they will get after their done with parliament bar a special few, prime minister are particularly suspect in that area, you thought they were serving the people dream on. The precious few that are not on the make are the ones so viciously attacked by the Murdock press and the Daily Mail but they of course are all in the pockets of terrorist organisations yeah right.ViewDate:

Kindle vs BookI have an ipad which I get Kindle on for holidays but otherwise its real books for me, some from the library if we stop using them we will lose them. If I buy a book I always pass it on to a charity shop that way I benefit both bookshop and charity.ViewDate:

When do you celebrate Twelfth Night?I celebrate it on the 6th of January which is epiphany and we give the children a small gift in celebration of this religious feast. Though I can't claim to be particularly devout anymore. Nonetheless religion is what Christmas is supposed to be about, I think the clue is in the name.ViewDate:

Do you think 'grid girls' should be banned in F1?Never thought I would find myself agreeing with Ms Campbell but in this instant I do, Formula 1 is a glamorous sport and the grid girls are part of the show. I have never seen any sight of these girls being molested not surprisingly since the drivers all have extremely glamorous partners hovering nearby. They are models and have a living to make. Give them a break and loosen up here or would you like to put them all in hijabs.ViewDate:

Speakers Corner Commentsnews would be good, a British women is in a Turkish gaol for travelling to Turkey with 280 tramadol tablets in her case. Innocent victim taking pain killers to her boyfriend in Turkey where there are banned. Yeah right, tramadol are a class A drug in this country available only on prescription when I was in hospital suffering from double compound fracture and skin graft these drugs could only be given to me if two senior nurses opened the safe where they were kept. On my release I was given 50. How the hell did this woman who was not ill manage to get hold of 280, give me a break.ViewDate:

Speakers Corner CommentsWhen 2,000 people were killed in the WTO attacks USA replied by bombing two countries none of whose citizens were involved. 15,000 of there own citizens are killed each year by guns, they do nothing. Their constitution gives them the right to bear arms it also gives them the right to keep slaves. They are allowed to arm because they cannot trust their own government. Should we be listening to these people.ViewDate:

Millions still using mobile phones while driving, research suggestsIt can't be beyond the wit of motor manufacturers to produce a car that won't allow use of a mobile phone whilst the engine is running. In an emergency you pull over and turn off the engine. Simples.
