David Cameron says the UK government can’t afford to reduce fuel costs

David Cameron recently announced that his government would not be in a position to relieve Britain’s motorists of the soaring cost of petrol because this would require EU permission. This is soon after the president of the AA, Edmund King, said this was ’a bleak midwinter'for millions of motorists in the UK, particularly who commute longer distances to work.

Laws of the European Commission stipulate that the country cannot charge different rates of fuel duty in different regions of the More

The Twitter revolution

I’m genuinely amazed at the protests that have been going on at Topshop and Vodafone over the last few weeks. Not because it shows that young people are politically active instead of the apathetic wastrels that people said we were for years and years. But b

Of course, it’s possible to argue that protesting against tax avoidance at a time of massive recession is quite a long way from radical - in fact, it’s a perfectly sensible and reasonable thing More

Train Fares Rise

In a series of cuts throughout the public system and the education, the government seems not to be satisfied with the effect. In addition, the rise in the train fares would take effect soon enough and the government would once again face criticism.
The chief of the Organisation of the Train Companies has announced he completely agree with the rise in the fares. The reasons are quite simple - the higher than expected inflation rates influence the prices of transportation, More

N Korea Ready For a ‘Sacred’ War

The South Korean Republic has recently held the largest and most impressive military exercise for this year as a sign of its military power and as a part of the preparations for any eventual military conflict with the North. Rulers of the South have claimed that to be a military pride exercise that is to highlight the capabilities of the South Korean Republic and to strengthen the confidence of public in the military abilities of its country.
However, the North More

David Cameron claims the protestors were responsible for violence in the student protests - in reality it is all Nick Clegg’s fault

David Cameron’s assertion that violent protestors were responsible for the attack on Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall, as well as numerous other incidents in Parliament Square and a number of other locations in central London, is evidently correct in legal terms.

However, it is his government’s decision to hike tuition fees by an unprecedented level that is the root cause of all of the violence and unrest that London has had More

The EU Sigh Towards the East

The EU has always been working in closer cooperation with the most developed states in the world as the organisation itself is getting more and more powerful. The foot prints of that powerful economic developments are easily observed - the rise of the value of the Euro as a currency, the cooperation of the member states in criminal and state security matters, the integration of cultures and capital sharing with no boundaries. This all enhance the powers of the community More

A Rising China

During the last decade, the world witnessed the awakening of the so called Chinese force - once a powerful empire, China came on the top of the world once again …economically. But what we observe nowadays is a China that is not only advancing economically but that is making a significant effort to develop its military techniques, technologies and powers by taking advantage of its strong economical position in the world right now.
This is a particularly interesting observation since More

Immigrants, Attack!!!

No matter whether you apply for a locum doctor job or a builder position, it is almost sure that in times of unemployment the choice would be hard to make for the employer….but much harder it would be to get accepted for a potential employee. And all this is happening in times where the immigration was one of the main engines of the UK economy… nowadays it seems to an obstacle.
After the 2000, the immigrants in the UK increased More

The Secret Services - They still Like Torture!

Just days ago it became clear that the UK government is about to pay a huge compensation for the claimants that were subject to inhuman treatment while being held in custody as suspects of terrorism. This is a clear attempt to hide the truth behind a pile of money and the government seems ready to pay immediately any price just to make those people claiming silent - the public is somehow feared by the authorities and the truth seemingly needs More

Negligence Compensation In Common Law

No matter whether you have suffered from the negligence of an incompetent surgeon who would be better placed on the locum doctor jobs market, or a careless driver who crashes into your house, you need to turn to the law of tort for claiming under the negligent actions of the injurer. Many citizens have begun to loudly criticise the UK government for not valuably estimating the negligence disputes and resolution needs in the English tort law and that this particular More
