Were Dawlish's cctv cameras working?
@neilh - suggest you ask george osborne after all he's the one whose vat idea this was. perhaps though he's now wishing he'd never suggested it as i've noticed of late that he's started to look a bit pasty* faced. (*yes, I know it's pronounced differently, but I couldn't resist it)
Wonder who'll play the pasty patsy?
@cheftallyrand - believe there was something on the very late edition of bbc spotlight last night. so there may be more coverage today - guess it all depends on what else has happened newswise locally between yesterday and today.
What I find even stranger is that a large crowd of people gathered round to watch the bag be detonated- What if it had turned out to be an explosive devise?
Eyes of Dawlish saying that it's all been due to a suspicious package being left outside by the ATM at Nat. West. in the town. Buildings nearby have been evacuated. Trains held up at Dawlish Warren and I imagine the same at Teignmouth.(imagine the knock on affect on the rail timetable). Air ambulance has now left Dawlish (watched it leave Sandy Lane) so perhaps now all sorted out?
Have searched everywhere trying to find more details about the proposals for changes to state pensions wef 2016 but alas all has been in vain. All I can find, is that it is proposed that there will be a flat rate pension of around £140.00 ( But will other age related benefits be removed to compensate for that I wonder?). Even government websites are silent. Then I thought of looking at the Saga ...
Aren't the Police, SAR and Coastguard Service subject to public sector cuts/privatisation?
