David Cameron Tells Sky's Adam Boulton He Was Not Mistaken In His Comments On Pakistan Terror

29/7/2010 4:39 AM BST

Hypocrisy ! The best word to define this rhetoric by Mr Cameron. As he announced a full support for Turkey bid to join the EU, he disappointed those xenophobic people who massively voted for him. Now it is time to sing your own praises a bit in order to regain some prestige along those far right supporters. That's it. We have a "TO BE OR NOT TO BE" prime minister.

Moving Forward

More than 24 million people today are better aware of our chaotic financial system. It is time for you to learn how the system works. Predictable is the outcome, isn't it ? Mais de 24 milhões de pessoas hoje têm consciência do nosso sistema financeiro caótico. O atual modelo de capitalismo é asfixiante, autodestrutivo e principalmente injusto. O sistema só se mantém vivo enquanto houver recursos naturais do planeta para consumir até a exaustão. O documentário expõe com muita clareza o que nos aguarda.

The context of this social unrest in London

Decades of individualism, competition and state-encouraged selfishness – combined with a systematic crushing of unions and the ever-increasing criminalisation of dissent – have made Britain one of the most unequal countries in the developed world. Since the Tories came to power just over a year ago, we witnessed multiple student protests, occupations of many universities, several strikes, a half-a-million-strong trade union march and now unrest on the streets of the capital. Each of these events was sparked by a different cause, yet all take place against a backdrop of brutal cuts and enforced austerity measures. Tottenham has the fourth highest level of child poverty in London and an unemployment rate of 8.8%, double the national average, with one vacancy for every 54 seeking work in the borough. Finally, police are not omnipotent.  This situation has underlined very clearly that law and order is generally maintained by consent, not coercion.

Surgeons Warn That Delays In Treatment For Strokes Is Risking Patients Lives

22/7/2010 12:3 PM BST It is so obvious that a proactive approach is the most effective way to reduce deaths from strokes and heart attacks. However, it seems that the NHS management prefer expensive and many times too late remedies. The management alone cannot be blamed. A large number of GP's in this country are plain useless. Even when they do not have a clue what's going on, they do not refer you to someone who can investigate and possibly save your life. There is something very wrong with all this. I try to avoid analogies but even in Brazil, a large country with 200 million people, the public health service seems perform better than here. They invest in preventive measures and regular checkups. I have no illusions that this CONDEM government will change anything for better. One of these days when I go to my surgery to see a Doctor, I will be seen by a volunteer instead...That's what I call a bigger society!
