At college my perfect recipe for Pot Noodle went as follows:
- Put kettle on
- Roll joint
- Pour boiled water into pot
- Smoke joint while Pot Noodle is "cooking"
- Eat Pot Noodle
This can be served with crisps or eaten on its own.

Anyone in favour of capital punishment should be willing to make the decision to kill in cold blood, carry out the cold-blooded killing, take care of the cadaver, deal with the family and take care of any miscarriages of justice which result in a wrongful execution.

Because they continue to demonstrate that they are completely out of touch with the population in their sentencing of criminals we want you to introduce legislation to remove judges from the criminal justice system once any person has been found guilty of an offence. At that point of a trial the usefulness of the judge (in maintaining the legality of proceedings) is redundant. Sentencing needs to be more in keeping with the opinion of the public opinions of this country so panels of 'sentencers' consisting of randomly selected taxpaying individuals need to be established round the country so that sentencing is appropriate to the part of the country the crime is committed. Judges demonstrate most admirably that it is not possible for them to see that as far as the public is concerned 'the punishment MUST fit the crime'.

But the people who are in it are so fucking thick, they do proper racist football-style chants and get into fights and start on shop keepers and families. If they truely believed their rehtoric, like, they really thought extemest islam is a threat, and I know to say 'innocent muslims' implies that there are 'non-innocent muslims', but I mean, they should stay clear of those who don't cause any bother and treat people like that like they would anyone else, so it gives less ammo for their opposers.
