Will this nonsense ever end?
The number of schoolchildren who visit pensioners to keep them company in old age looks set to fall amid fears that both groups will have to be formally vetted for safety reasons. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/6479099/Schoolchildren-visiting-the-elderly-set-to-fall-due-to-vetting-fears.html <sigh>

This nonsense may end when we get rid of the source of it: this wretched, bankrupt, fascist control-freaking Labour government. But don't hang by your eyelashes! The idiots who back it all are very firmly entrenched - and a big part of the earth-sorching programme is to entrench them still further while there time remains. An example is "Baroness" Scotland's installation of a head of CPS on a five-year contrick. And, of course, the Labour election of Berk Cow as Squeaker. And in the latter case, how great it will be if the voters throw him out in favour of UKIP!
