Had a gun? Was suspected of having a gun? Anything at all mentioned about a gun? |

He entered an area between the protest and the police. Presumably, the police were instructed to view any incursion into this gap as a possible threat. |

Nice breakdown of the vote here: http://politicalbetting.blogspot.com/20 ... s-for.html Quote: English MPs were 311-209 in favour of the measures with 8 absent or abstaining, a hefty majority of 102. Yet the overall margin of victory was slashed to 21 by MPs from Scotland (majority of 45 against), Wales (24) and Northern Ireland (12).

On a sort of related note, does anyone know if it's possible for someone ove 25, say someone who was 35, and had taken 2 years of a degree, and 2 years of grant, but no student loan, to be able to get a loan to help in perhaps a part time course? Or, as my limited research suggests, is this only accessible to under 25s with no prior university study? Malc |

G_10033133 You should be able to get a career development loan, but it depends on the course I think |

Dancers tend to have good figures. MrsA expressed some concern about the nephews not being able to go to university, due to costs. I suggested they get the army to pay for it, as otherwise they'll never end up leaving their home town. |

I dunno about you, but I would definitely pay more for an accountant who danced. |
