It's here, Etheridge + Doovde...... it is........ the KILLER BLOW......

From newsbeat this morning..... the amount of calls about CHILD NEGLECT have DOUBLED in the past two years, including kids (UK BASED) having to beg neighbours for FOOD. So WHY are we giving money to Africa, and everyone else.

Just in case anyone (including guests) have missed WHY we are giving cash to Africa (£10m) - it is on account of a FOOD CRISIS, when, in fact, we have one all.of.our.own.

Also, the Spanish PM, despite having been given a bail out of cash, assures people that things will get a lot worse before they will get better. *

* O, that's good then....

** Viv deals the final killer blow against the Conservatives **

As I have said all along, we WILL do much better on our own. We cannot possibly... not even possibly do ANY WORSE, or even (looking into the actual jaws of Hell) deal with a greater display of incompetence/mis-management of finances on such a scale it is actually quite remarkable.

People being irresponsible with benefits money (There is enough to feed a family, if not with luxuries), is no reason not to fulfill a moral obligation to the starving around the world.

It is this sort of mind numbing ignorance that breeds hatred.

No, it is our government's ignorance and mis management and greed that has brought this country to its knees. WE need help. charity begins at home. plus, why is there the assumption that only people on benefits cannot feed kids. and, who put them on benefits, or fails to move them on.... Yup, mr camoron.

Back again.... We have 1. Homelessness 2. starving people (in a so called first world country as well), 3. VAST unemployment 4. Lack of growth in economy 5. Businesses going bust every day 6. Problems with crime and community issues 7. Lack of housing / poor housing. during boom times, yeh, help other people but not at the moment. and, if you look at frankie boyle's twitter, it reads as though camoron has left his kid in a pub now?! eh.

and yet you have STILL to explain how any other party would be any different.

I would also compare poverty and homelessness in this country with that in Africa, I would wager that while it IS difficult here, it is also possible for the individual to do more about it, even if it's just selling Big Issue to get money for a hostel or something (I don't know details in particular of this system).

Do you think similar happens much in Africa where it'll be whole sections of a city struggling for food/water etc?

Also there are MANY playing the benefits system, and don't you think NEGLECT might have something to do with, oh, I dunno, the PARENTS rather than Cameroon. Look at the McCanns for example... They who court as much media attention as possible by blaming everyone else but themselves (after all, all they did was leave her alone and unsupervised!) for their daughter's tragic disappearance. Much as I can't stand Camoron and hate what he's doing to the country, I see no real reason to blame HIM for the bad parenting of others... I'll blame him for his and his party's own highly morally dubious acts.

Your 'Killer'? Tis but a scratch... (yes, the link is probably what you think it is)

Any other party would be different by not giving money away to everybody else when there are problems at home. if your family needed food, would you race down the road and give the food to some random at a zebra crossing. We simply cannot afford africa, while we are in a so called recession. And i have more and more doubts about this "recession". as to people on benefits... At no point did newsbeat say the story was about people on benefits. also, camoroon has indeed lost his own kid at a pub. look after a country? pffttt.

Trade was NEVER a part of my case when it comes to Africa... (even though it does exist with countries within the African continent such as Egypt and South Africa, irrelevant here as it is not with countries we send Humanitarian aid to)

My case was that African homeless and impoverished are likely worse off than UK homeless and impoverished.

Viv, your claim that there is no trade in Africa is so ignorant, and outdated, and it actually makes me angry. And why should there need to be anything in return?!

Secondly: The David Cameron / pub thing has been massively blown out of proportion. Firstly it happened 8 months ago. And, he believed that she was with his wife, and he went with his bodyguards... I can see how that could be easily done.

Finally: Viv, your argument for Scottish Independence has turned into an anti-Conservative drive. They are in government for 5 years. Not forever... Your arguments are weak, based on foundations of sand, and quite frankly laughable.

No, it didn't say that they were on benefits HOWEVER if they can't afford to feed a child, benefits are available.

If benefits are available, then why are kids going to neighbours for help? o, and if the parents are spending the benefit money on other ... Er.... "items", then food VOUCHERS are the answer. once again, simple solution, but leave it to the parents, then blame all parents. as to not knowing where your kid is.... Yeh, it is pretty serious, because the kid could have gone with anyone.... Esp if you're PM, maybe try minimise looking like a fool over simple things?! now, as to why we should get something back.... If we are in a recession, surely we cannot afford to give away? Just a thought.

Ps: of course.. I do always forget..... We, mr and mrs joe public ultimately wind up paying, don't we?!? i forgot our own old people too (not enough money for them during the winter months to heat their homes). why not? they lived through wars. Do they not deserve better? and lack of care in nursing homes... Too few staff, no time to properly care for people. nah, definitely all needs sorting. no, the tories are only in for five years alright. and not a scrap of this looks good at the polls.

Back again! top story on newsbeat.... Yup, they are cutting army jobs to save money, with a view to cutting 50000 eventually. yet again, may i suggest not giving cash all around the world?! also, have spoken to mum and dad this morning. They tell me that their winter fuel allowance was LESS for 2011. It was cut for those under eighty years of age. so, mum tells me they had to cut back elsewhere. pathetic, absolutely pathetic.

Please enlighten us as to Salmond's great masterplans to how things will be SO improved if Scotland is made independent?

You have still yet to do this and have spent most of this thread blaming Cameron for things that aren't all entirely down to him (some things caused by previous governments and other entities and even COUNTRIES entirely). Even if it is true he has contributed to making situations worse (I can't stand the guy either for the record).

We need to know what would be better in a 'self-preserving' Scotland and actual counters to the points that have been made (which you have failed to address like 99% of, even with your 'Killer').

No point continuing the thread if you can't do this one little thing.

I assume you refer to this story http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-18401210 however I have just seen an interestingly positive perspective on Twitter: "Big Bro got made redundant! He's over the moon!! No more trips to sandy hell holes (where we have no real business being in a military capacity in the first place in most cases) like Afghan"

Agreed. I'm sorry Viv, I'm afraid you or rather Salmond have failed to do this, which is why this thread is so frustrating, and rather pointless. Bit like running around in ever decreasing circles really, until anything concrete is presented.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but I do seem to recall that you went out canvassing for the Lib Dems relatively recently? They are second on the list of things I don't like very much after Cameron, and are partially responsible for the British Govt. you're criticising.

As the campaign for the future by the snp begins later this year.... Leafleting has not even begun yet ... They are just taking names of people willing to volunteer at the moment, we should get a lot more answers and this topic will be a very good one. btw, saw a remark on a local forum about cameron's kid going missing... Someone is saying she attempted to defect to the snp. Love. That. :)

Just tuned in... And mp for perth states scotland perfectly capable of supporting herself though income from oil and gas too. also, with regards to currency, he is pro keeping the pound because it is good for continuity and the economy. The actual referendum will be end 2014. So, this topic should be magnificent at a later stage.

Back again! forgot to say there is also the opportunity to capitalise on our rich cultural heritage... Castles, museums, crofts, etc., etc. cultural heritage, gas, oil..... Yeh, we would need to set up a different tax system, but, yep, we could do it.

    • Tara Kumar is in for Alyx on Sunday 13th July.
    • Conor Knight & Lauren Layfield are in for Matt & Mollie on Monday 14th July.  Matt is solo on Tuesday 15th July.  Jerry is in for Mollie between Wednesday 16th & Thursday 24th July.  Maia Beth is covering Future Pop on Wednesday 16th & Wednesday 23rd July. On Sunday 27th July the Chillest Show is reduced to an hour, and 20.00-21.00 is a BBC Proms special with JADE. On Thursday 31st July 18.00-20.00 in place of Jack's show it's the Dance Party Warm-Up with Danny Howard (ahead of the Ibiza weekend).
    • Dean McCullough in for Greg w/c 4th August. James Cusack on EB.
    • Well looks like Mollie is off all month now so presumably a personal matter. 
    • Intrigued why Matt & Mollie aren't presenting breakfast on Monday, with James in for them instead (which has happened before).. or even James given a chance to present the breakfast show?
    • Sam & Danni seem to be down for Breakfast on Monday. James Cusack on Going Home. That’s another new name in the list of “people who have hosted Going Home in 2025”.
    • Wednesday, surely? But this is another mess, as this weeks Summer press release said it’ll be Sam & Danni no Jamie from the 28th - so it’s actually a whole week earlier!
    • Jamie Laing’s last show before his summer break will be on Wednesday 16th July.
    • I worked out once Scott spent 3 months of a year off his own slot in the Moyles days and more like 4 in Grimmys days, six weeks of his own holiday and projects, six covering Grimmy plus some ad hoc days 
    • Back on topic, I think there's quite a few of the current Radio 1 presenters who would be able to adapt to Radio 2's style in the future. It's more of question of how many of them will actually end up there. With much of R2's line up changed over the past couple of years, it's quite possible we won't see much movement there, and R2 management might even decide to look elsewhere to bring in new presenters in future.
    • With OJ covering on bank holidays. She is the best person for the job however... they're going to end up with a situation like Scott covering R1 breakfast back in the day, where she spends quite a bit of time off her own slot covering Breakfast, plus her own holiday and other commitments. She's been filming for something recently which has meant she's been off several days a week since May. She was off last week, on breakfast this week, OJ is on Mon/Tues next week, then She's off the following two weeks.
    • Looking back at this I would say now that Sara is the main cover - I think she has been reestablished as it now 
    • Purley on the R1 Dance station.. Someone on DS said don't expect to see any changes to the schedule on the new stations however if they are taking on Capital Dance with this, which they clearly are, which has live presenters 7am - 10pm except for the 11am mix then they'll surely have to have a proper scheduled set of shows. At the moment Arielle is the only "live" per say show and only "live" a few days a week with earlier shows being repeated Thursday Friday and Saturday. Connor and Charlie are clearly pre records but was this only for the time it was online only and they have already got a schedule ready to go on day 1? also of note is that Charlie is taking over a podcast as well as starting a new project with podcasting which makes me wonder if she is about to step back from Dance Anthems all together to concentrate on those and Connor takes over? So you could have Arielle doing 9-12 weekdays live then someone else 12-3 and Connor live 3-6 on R1D and doing Dance Anthems on a Saturday. 
    • As none of the Going Home Team aren't currently on the air, that's a bit if an issue. Considering most of the Dance DJs will be out there, I'm surprised none of them are being utilised to host the 1-4 slot that weekend.
    • Going Home presenters have done the last few years ?
