Another one will not be built as it has turned out to be a deeply flawed design. A new one would have many of the same issues.

I wouldn't worry about it, there's barely anyone left in law enforcement to actually use any new powers! Great choice everyone. I do hope you don't expect anyone to actually turnpup and help if you have the need to dial 999!

Because you don't choose to be disabled. Although as Toofpik points out, the exactly where that money is spent could do with being looked at! Hopefully the opposition will put someone electable in charge now. Not entirely sure who that could be though.

China - 2 dead after falling from a gondala ride which started before riders had been secured. Tripoli - 1 dead as unknown ride apparently colapses.

And I think that sums up the problem; the benefits system needed (and still needs) cutting and fixing, but they have gone about it with a streak of evil instead of sense. If the exit polls are correct it'll be a shame. Rather than the conservatives winning I think it is more the case that Labour have lost it. They simply did not present themselves as a viable alternative.

Or, they'll only get anything through if it is so good they all agreed on on it. Could work! I wonder if they could all be adult enough to make it work though?

Beaten to it, but that is the right to have access, not the right to have it pumped into the palm of your hand.

And I find it incredible that such an educated fellow could even consider that the case! It just goes to show how far we have slipped from reality if we are thinking these frivolous things are actually essential to anyone and should be provided by the state on an individual basis. We used to provide libraries, not give people books! It might sound harsh but if you really have nothing and no work you should be housed and fed, so rent paid and food vouchers with minimal disposable cash on top. Suddenly work would look a whole lot more attractive to people who currently chose not to, as would making people work for their benefits. That is exactly what I'm saying, this situation is clearly mental. It's arguably these people that are taking benefits to give themselves the luxuries in life more than those on unemployment. It should just stop, and people should simply live within their means. I work with people who can not work a minute over their contract (although they are quite capable of doing so and the opportunity is often present) as it would cost them substantially more than they earn in lost benefits, how can that be a thing?! Quite how the massive change I believe is required could be implemented now, in a system that is so deeply flawed, I don't quite know. I imagine it would have to come hand in hand with an increase in minimum wage and some extra employment rights, so shifting the onus to reward people with a comfortable wage on business rather than the state.

I'd suggest the percentage of people doing anything like that is minuscule in comparison to the downside of it being there and the numbers effectively passing through. It is rather unfortunate that pretty much all of our parks have grown in inappropriate places rather than in any of the great swathes of acceable countryside up and down the land.

That isn't based on spin, it's based on what I find in the world. I won't go in to specifics but I come in to contact with pretty much all sections of society, and there is a not insignificant amount of people choosing not to work and living off of the state, In my opinion the welfare state is there to keep people alive, keep them fed and sheltered, but it has grown into a monster keeping people in Sky TV, mobile contracts, alcohol, cigarettes and many other things that can't be seen as essential to living. And I don't just mean unemployment benefit, the massive complex and inefficient benefit system dressed up as tax credits is just wrong across the board and should be stripped back far far further than it has been already. Living on benefits should be a hard life. Disability allowance excluded, naturally. If labour get in I'm sure they'll just open the wallet again and start splashing the cash exactly where they shouldn't. Just like they did last time.

I know the bad press comes from the student fees issue, but I thought they handled that quite well overall. Deciding it was a necessary concession to get them in a position of influence within the government and then publicly apologising for it, whenever do you see a political part do that rather than try to spin their way out of it? I find it quite refreshing. Conservatives (primarily May) are just to evil in general and destructive to my situation personally. Labour lost me during question time ("did you spend too much when you were last in power?" .... "no". Well you are an idiot then. Admit to, and learn from, your mistakes) and can't be trusted to be competent with my tax money If only a party would pledge to stop privatising and outsourcing everything in sight (and re nationalise plenty that's already gone), support and protect the emergency services and armed forces, cut back benefits (excluding DLA) to a point where they weren't an option to chose to live on and get out of Europe. They'd have my vote!

... and that speed camera about a mile from the park!

Or does it? How many people spend a single penny outside of the park itself, especially now it has its own hotel? It does provide jobs, but they are mostly poorly paid and seasonal. I don't think that's a great trade off for the locals with all the disruption it brings.

It will forever be Peter Pans! The dome is long gone though.

Like it or not whatever way anyone votes here in England we will end up with either Cameron or Milliband as PM, most likely with a sidekick from one one the fringe parties by their side to make up the numbers. That leaves me as a voter with quite a poor choice. I don't consider myself to be aligned to any one party but have pretty reliably voted conservative historically, often against some of my own principles. Mostly to avoid the shear incompetents of the alternative, for the greater good if you will. I have no idea who I am voting for later today. Can't bring myself to vote for the conservatives with some of the things they have done and will do, I firmly believe labour would be disastrous for the economy and country as a whole, UKIP do make sense in some areas but appear dangerously unhinged in others. I actually think the Lib Dems have done a pretty good job of influencing and controlling the worst of Cameron and May and don't really get the level of bad press that's being thrown at them, that's probably the way I'm leaning at the moment.

Hell, why not. gogogo...

You believe that you'll believe anything. I have always been a tory voter and agree with much they have done, but their destruction of policing is dangerous to everyone and unnecessary. I don't trust labour with the economy for a second. Oh, and the nhs has been sold, not invested in.

This one's not funny. Bloody true though. Vote wisely people...

New indoor area is open Looks a little bit sparse for the size of the building, wonder if we'll see a few more things added in the future?

If it's not full you are moved to the front to prevent stalling I believe?

My theory with the cabin control box is that's where the electrics for the site come in, so rather than leaving that point unprotected they can leave it safe in that box until it gets moved or properly disconnected when the new building needs its power supply. Or maybe they just think it looks pretty.

So... not the same then!
