http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-27683240It certainly makes for good headlines for the coalition in the main, but that fracking inclusion is ridiculously cheeky. That said, it's probably the only thing there that's really new and has legs apart from the plastic bag tax

I think quite a lot of voters feel like they've been duped by the coalition anyway, tbh.

A law to criminalise possession of "written paedophilia"? That seems too many degrees removed from the harm that paedos do to others to be viable.

They tried bringing fracking to Bath a few years back, thankfully that was aborted pretty quickly. Have they not seen the reports of the people in the US who have contaminated water come out of their taps? This government will sell the country to anyone with a few bob :S

They need ousting sharpish before they do any more damage. This government is insane!

I am being persuaded to investigate sailing lessons. This may be a good reason to take those suggestions seriously.

Sorry, bit of a tangent but now you mention it... 'Localised flooding'. Isn't flooding always localised? Isn't it 'a particular place' that is flooded, be it a house or a village or whatever. If we ever get the point of 'generalised flooding', aren't we pretty much boned?

Are you worried they will pull out a plug and our little island will sink?
