David Davis Describes The Partnership Between David Cameron And Nick Clegg As Brokeback Coalition

24/7/2010 3:13 AM BST

At least Mr Davis is being realistic. That's the result of party in power without a clear mandate. Without a majority in the Commons the Tories have to face situations like that and many others that will arise in the future. What Mr Davis wanted to illustrate was the platonic relation between two individuals who stand up for different principles and now entered in a promiscuous political relation in order to secure the pleasure of power.

David Cameron Arrives In Afghanistan For First Visit As Prime Minister

Friday June 11, 2010 Well, it seems that money for war is not an issue for a government that says it needs to tackle the deficit. Let’s cut public services, sack people, put more people in poverty due to welfare cuts, etc. Let’s spend these savings on war. It is really pathetic this new government. What else we could expect form a right wing party ?

Belgium Shaken As Nationalists Win Election

Monday June 14, 2010 It is really funny to see how many people do believe that EU is fragile. It took half a century to build it. I won't go away like that. For the same period of time our continent remained in peace. Belgium has a long tradition of keeping extremism and false moralist out of their society. Xenophobia is on rise, no doubt about it. Soon we will have a new Stalin, Mussolini and even a Hitler messing around somewhere in Europe. Some people do embrace the "non-EU" instance in order to hide their racism, anger, personal frustrations, low self esteem, etc. Exactly how it happened in Germany in the 30's. Irresponsible stubborn. Most anti-EU people do not have even a vague knowledge how important and how we are dependent of our EU ties. It is a waste of time to try to explain all the benefits we enjoy and we take as granted. Those people will only realise that when they get affected directly by unemployment, high inflation, lack of competit...

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!
