| + | <div class="body "><p>On the official parliamentary website, there is a portentous warning: “The first parliamentary test of a minority or coalition government is the vote on an amendment to the Queen’s Speech. If the Queen’s Speech is amended,lululemon, the Prime Minister must resign.” It last happened in January 1924, when the minority Tory government collapsed,hollister outlet uk, letting Labour in. Not, you would think, a precedent about which Mr Cameron should be “relaxed”.</p><p><strong>A riddle: what do you call PMQs with no PM,hollister?</strong></p><p>If he lost office, at least Mr Cameron would not have to endure Prime Minister’s Questions again. The variety of pretexts he finds for avoiding his Wednesday morning appointments at the despatch box are so many and varied that he dropped Ed Miliband (above) into an embarrassing position at a drinks reception he hosted for political journalists on Thursday evening. During one of the conversations,hollister uk, it dawned on the hacks that the Labour leader did not know that once again there will be no Prime Minister’s Questions this coming Wednesday, because the Prime Minister will be out of the country. Miliband was visibly taken aback when journos broke the news.</p><p><strong>Get well soon, Graham</strong></p><p>One person not seen in Westminster recently is Graham Stuart, pictured above, the Conservative MP for Beverley and Holderness, who had a nasty fall skiing in France nearly two months ago, injuring his pelvis, breaking several ribs and puncturing a lung. He is not yet mended,lululemon outlet, but is on the mend. “I’ll be back on Monday,hollister uk, albeit in a wheelchair,” he says.</p><p><strong>Nadine Dorries: putting the ‘o’ in social media</strong></p><p>Ed Balls once set off a trend in Twitter when he accidentally sent out a tweet that said nothing but “Ed Balls”. Now Nadine Dorries, left, has made a similar error: in the heady excitement of being reinstated as a Tory MP, she put out a tweet consisting just of the letter ‘o’. “You’re not as good as Ed Balls,” one disappointed recipient tweeted back. To which she retorted: “And I don’t give a flying ferret!” But she is as high as a flying ferret.</p><p><strong>At last,lululemon outlet canada, Opik finds an appreciative audience</strong></p><p>Almost everything the former Liberal Democrat MP Lembit Opik,She shan't go to the ball Emma Watson turns d, below, did during his political career turned to failure. So too his relationships and affairs with well known women, and his various attempts to find a new profession since he lost his seat in 2010. It is therefore delightful to read in the Oxford University newspaper,lululemon outlet canada, Cherwell, about the runaway success of his recent appearance at the Oxford Union,'Welcome to Poundland, Everything's 97p&, and particularly about how well the latter part of the evening went, in a nearby bar, surrounded by undergraduates. “Lembit was great, he is totally mad,29br Mr Ogg said,” a student exclaimed afterwards. “I’m not sure exactly how much he drank, but he definitely started asking some people in president’s drinks about their masturbation habits,lululemon outlet, and in Bridge I’m pretty sure he likened a toilet cubicle to Nick Clegg’s office.”</p><p><strong>Students to test their mettle</strong></p><p>New College Nottingham is offering a foundation degree in heavy metal. The course starts in September and, in their second year,lululemon outlet canada, students will perform on tour at venues around the country. It’s enough to make people who get angry about universities that offer pointless courses go deep purple.</p></div> | ||

| + | <div class="body "><p>The criteria demands they have been capped for England at least once and still be playing professionally, but out of the reckoning for international football. They must have made their international debut relatively young, as befitted their potential,lululemon canada, only to have faded away early, or at least before their time. Some are perennial underachievers, some drifted off for no obvious reason. But for most,Waiting lists pressure rises Herald Scotland, it was injury that did for them.</p><p>No shortage of contenders in goal. There is a case for saying even Paul Robinson, with 41 caps, and the No 1 in England's goal for more than three years, came up short. He retired from international football in August at just 30, in what looked like a protest at being called up as a late replacement. Only 23 when he made his debut,Fifa extends match-fixing bans in new crackdown -, he was first choice at 24 but has not played since Steve McClaren dropped him for Scott Carson for that disastrous defeat to Croatia in the Euro 2008 qualifier at Wembley in 2007.</p><p>Carson? Another contender. He made his debut at 22,hollister, then had his nightmare game against Croatia and won one more cap in a friendly the following year. Fabio Capello called him up to the squad last week as a replacement for Ben Foster but you get the feeling his heart is not really in it.</p><p>But the first choice has to be Chris Kirkland. He has just one cap �C against Greece in August 2006 �C which was enough for the bet his dad had placed years earlier on him being an international to pay out. Kirkland was a richly promising goalkeeper. Still only 29, he should be in his prime but injury has taken a heavy toll and he is no longer first-choice at Wigan.</p><p>Right-back is easy. It is not his favourite position but it was where he played in an outstanding debut for England against Luxembourg as a 20-year-old in 1999. Kieron Dyer is the lost member of the golden generation. His career sunk by injury,lululemon, he played 33 games for England but, still only 32, his cap-count should be up in the mid-80s with contemporaries like Frank Lampard. Instead he is on loan at Ipswich Town.</p><p>In central defence, Ledley King. OK, he won 21 caps and was in the World Cup squad last summer �C when he played his last game for England �C but were it not for injury he would have played so much more. His debut was against Italy as a 21-year-old in 2002. King has the distinction of having played under Sven Goran Eriksson, McClaren and Capello. None of them wanted to give up on him.</p><p>King's former Spurs team-mate Anthony Gardner managed one cap as a promising 23-year-old in 2004 and never really kicked on but Jonathan Woodgate trumps him. Capped at just 19 in 1999,hollister uk, he won only seven more caps in the next 12 years. Injuries have virtually finished him yet he is only 11 months older than John Terry.</p><p>At left-back is Kieran Richardson. He scored two goals on his debut against the United States in May 2005 at the age of 20 and won seven more caps in the next 17 months but nothing since. Now 26,hollister sale, he ticks over at Sunderland but looks a long way from the England team.</p><p>In midfield, the possibilities abound. There are the one-cap wonders Joey Barton (February 2007) and Lee Hendrie (November 1998, and currently playing professionally aged 33 in Indonesia). Even Michael Carrick, frozen out by Capello, is a possibility. He is stuck on a relatively modest 22 caps despite having made his debut a decade ago.</p><p>On the right, David Bentley is the obvious candidate. He has seven caps, all won in the space of 347 days between his 23rd and 24th birthdays and he has not played since August 2008.</p><p>In the middle is Lee Bowyer, another one-cap player whose debut was delayed by his trial for assault in 2001 and, after he played in 2002 at the age of 25, he was never asked back by Eriksson. Alongside him is one of the great unfulfilled talents. David Dunn was an Under-21s regular and scored one of the best goals for England at that level against the Dutch in 2001 but won only one cap for the seniors in the same game as Bowyer against Portugal at Villa Park.</p><p>Owen Hargreaves has 42 caps, more than any other in this XI, but has to be included just because he could have achieved so much more if not for injury. He would be a key player now, with 70-plus caps, were it not for the tendinitis that has derailed his career. He is only 30 and yet he has not played for his country since May 2008.</p><p>Up front, there is one very obvious choice. He won one cap at the age of 22 and is still one of only two English players Ars��ne Wenger has paid big money for. Now, Francis Jeffers is just 30 and currently playing for Motherwell. Although he has had problems with injuries, his failure to live up to his potential is arguably the hardest to explain. He made his debut against Australia in February 2003 alongside Wayne Rooney.</p><p>Also making his debut that night was James Beattie who, with five caps, almost makes this team. But the last place goes to Alan Smith who, with 19 caps,lululemon canada, the first of which was as a precocious 20-year-old in May 2001, should have had many more. Again, injury was a factor and he won his last cap aged 27.</p><p>Dean Ashton would have been a contender but sadly, at 27,hollister,New forensic technique for estimating time of death by checking internal clock o, he has long since retired with injury. The ankle break that was the beginning of the end of Ashton's career was picked up in an England training session in August 2006. He came back long enough to get his one cap two years later. Of all the underachievers, unfulfilled and just plain disappointing, Ashton's story might be the saddest of all.</p><p><b>The FA's power to right wrongs is not used consistently</b></p><p>The Football Association is hidebound to follow slavishly Fifa's rule that games cannot be re-refereed and therefore it cannot, for example, go back on Wayne Rooney's elbow on James McCarthy last month and punish the player because,hollister uk, Fifa says, the referee took action at the time. Yet the FA last week had the power to rescind Sunderland defender John Mensah's red card against Liverpool.</p><p>The FA's right to rescind red cards is an anomaly. It was granted by Fifa as a concession and is used sparingly. It was created for the rare cases the referee gets the identity of the offender wrong or, as the rules say,lululemon, the club can prove that the referee made a "serious and obvious mistake" which Sunderland presumably did in the case of Kevin Friend. The Mensah red card was the wrong decision but there are far more serious incidents this season that have merited retrospective action.</p><p><b>Traffic in the best of Brazil's young talent is a disgrace</b></p><p>It was once the case that football clubs in South America, in Brazil in particular, lost their best players to European sides when they reached their prime. Then the Europeans started raiding the academies of South America's best clubs for the top youngsters.</p><p>Now,lululemon canada, with the help of private academies like Desportivo Brasil, near Sao Paulo, which is unaffiliated to any club and created for the express purpose of scouting and developing boys to sell for big profits to customers such as Manchester United, the likes of Flamengo, Fluminese, Corinthians et al are cut out of the process altogether. And we wonder why the developing world resents us. Appropriately, Desportivo Brasil's owners are called Traffic.</p></div> | ||

That's how you get yourself shot,Arthur Penn Director whose best-known film 'B.’”</p><p>Ms Garrett said the 7-year-old then told the 11-year-old to “show her your piece,lululemon canada.” The 11-year-old then lifted his shirt and showed Ms Garrett the gun,lululemon outlet.</p><p>“He said it was fully-loaded and cocked and ready to go. He told me he was going to blow my brains out if I didn't give him anything.”</p><p>When Ms Garrett refused to give the boys her tuck,hollister outlet, they demanded she hand over her wallet and phone.</p><p>At that point she drove away from the boys, but looked back to see the 11-year-old pull the gun from his pocket.

This week UN special rapporteur Ben Emmerson, in a speech before the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva,cheap lululemon, demanded the Government publish interim findings of the Gibson Inquiry into whether MI5 and MI6 aided and abetted the rendition and ill-treatment of terrorism suspects.</p><p>Both Mr Rahmatullah,lululemon canada, 30, and Mr Ali were arrested by British forces in Baghdad in 2004 before being handed over to the Americans. Almost a decade later they remain captive,Great getaways Scandinavian sailing, May Bank holi, a situation which Mr Rahmatullah’s family insist has left him in “catastrophic mental and physical shape”.</p><p>Last year the Supreme Court ruled that forcible transfer of Mr Rahmatullah from Iraq to Afghanistan by US forces appeared, at least on a prima facie basis, to be a breach of the Geneva Convention. It agreed the UK Government was unable to enforce his return.</p><p>But Lord Kerr added: “In these circumstances the UK Government was under a clear obligation, on becoming aware of any failure on the part of the US to comply with any provisions of the (Geneva Convention), to correct the situation or to request the return of Mr Rahmatullah.”</p><p>Yet despite requests that the UK’s involvement should be inspected, the Metropolitan Police has refused to do so, explained Kat Craig, legal director of the human rights charity Reprieve, which is supporting the case.</p><p>“It is the Met police’s job to investigate allegations of war crimes.? The highest court in the land has already said that there is evidence of British officials’ involvement in war crimes related to the on-going detention without charge or trial of Yunus and Amanatullah,hollister uk, who languish in prison to this day.</p><p>“So why isn’t the Met investigating? Their failure to do so protects the UK officials involved and makes the Met complicit in the torture and possible war crimes at the centre of this disgraceful affair,lululemon outlet canada,” she said.</p><p>In its letter to Mr Hogan-Howe, Leigh Day insists that the Metropolitan Police – as the UK;’s force with the responsibility for investigating war crimes - has a duty to examine the role of UK officials in failing to object to the men’s unlawful transfer or take corrective steps.

Any alleged breaches of the Geneva Convention were by the US, he added,hollister outlet, and that the UK’s failure to comply with its obligation to seek Mr Rahmatullah’s return was under international law and therefore the question of a UK breach did not arise.</p><p>Mr Fairbrother continued that,The Uncommon Reader, By Alan BennettThe Good Musli, in the Metropolitan Police’s view, there was not “sufficient legal or factual basis on which to commence a criminal investigation”.</p><p>There was no duty placed on the force to examine such allegations abroad,hollister outlet, he said, adding: “The MPS has not abdicated any of its responsibility…the MPS has expended a very significant amount of resources – both human and financial – on investigating allegations of this nature.”</p><p>The threatened judicial review came in the same week that the British barrister Ben Emmerson QC, the UN special rapporteur on counter-terrorism and human rights,lululemon outlet canada, demanded that the UK publish the interim findings of the report by Sir Peter Gibson into whether its security and intelligence agencies had been implicated in the improper treatment of detainees in the aftermath of the 11 September attacks.</p><p>He said it was time to end years of “official denials, sophistry and prevarications,lululemon outlet canada,” adding; “Holding those responsible to account is now the only way of genuinely drawing a line under the past.”</p></div> | ||

It gets on theirs<em>.</em>Little wonder they’ve got a chip on their shoulder bigger than a McCain Crispy Oven Bake.</p><p>Given this apparent - or illusory - backwardness,hollister outlet uk, it is interesting that last week the New Zealand parliament voted to legalise same sex marriage,The top ten Misquotations - UK Politics - UK - The, though as far as I know getting spliced to dear old Dolly the Sheep remains resolutely forbidden.</p><p>Though no huge fan of wedlock - of any sort - the issue of gay marriage is, to me, a no-brainer. If two people want to make a public/legal proclamation of their affection for each other, what in the name of the wee man (or woman) has it got to do with anyone else?</p><p>Surely the only person who could have a problem with it would be of a fanatical religious persuasion - and even then, such opposition would be so derisory and idiotic as to sway any would-be fence sitters firmly on the side of legalisation.</p><p>Which appears to be how the situation developed in New Zealand. Under a right wing government not especially given to broad-minded policies,J.M. Barrie - latest news, breaking stories and co, the Bill duly passed comfortably, with a substantial majority of essentially conservative and conventional Kiwis recognising and accepting the logic, morality - not to say inevitability - of the argument.</p><p>Now, as I‘ve said before, I’m no great supporter of Scottish independence - I’m not against it either, I just think it’s basically meaningless - but if a Scottish parliament was to pass commonsense libertarian legislation such as this, I might be a whole lot more enthusiastic. A draft Bill to legalise same sex marriage was launched in Scotland in December of last year, but since then it seems the trail has gone cold.</p><p>What’s more, you don’t have to be a political strategist to realise that same sex marriage is a vote magnet. Any reasonable person knows it’s the right thing to do - aside from the God bothering nutters everyone is for it, even – especially – lawyers who’ll no doubt be rubbing their hands at the increased revenue in divorce work as many of the marriages, predictably go bad. (Cynical, or what?)</p><p>There&rsquo,hollister outlet;s votes in it &ndash,lululemon outlet canada; lots of them,hollister.</p><p>Weddings are always good fun. Who doesn’t like a good wedding – the elation, the carousing, the punch-ups?</p><p>I’ve played in many wedding bands in my time and even did one last weekend,lululemon outlet, so from a purely personal point of view, I might even get a few gigs out of it; it’s a win for everyone.</p><p>So what’s the hold up? Naturally the churches oppose it, but since religion of every possible hue is increasingly becoming irrelevant in Scotland - and everywhere else, with the possible exception of Tora-Bora - it’s hard to accept that could be the reason for the hold up.</p><p>Though I’m not holding my breath - and don’t expect to personally benefit from it,cheap lululemon, the odd wedding gig here or there notwithstanding - it’s absolutely only a matter of time, for a few reasons.</p><p>It’s right and proper and firmly in the category of common sense, integrity and free-thinking. But more significantly,lululemon outlet canada, when lawyers realise there’s a right few quid for them in it, it’ll happen in the wink of an eye.</p></p></noscript> </div> | ||
