Does Mr Lansley know what he's doing ?

Imagine, sitting in a room and deciding you don't like the internal combustion engine, and would like something shiny, new and more efficient...oh and twenty percent cheaper to run.
Would you :
a) Design it, test it and then, when happy, fit it to new vehicles, or
b) Announce that all internal combustion engines would be scrapped in three year's time, and when asked what they were being replaced with, state enigmatically "That's not been completely decided yet, we're still thinking it through"
Coalition Health policy in a nutshell.
I thank you.

Oh dear, Andy

Well, hasn't he created a fuss.
It would appear that Andy Gray thinks that women don't understand the off-side rule, and that is enough apparently to get him the sack.
Hmm, frankly not before time, but largely because I'm sick to death of his self satisfied, up his own ass view of himself. It would appear, if you believe the press, that he's been a misogynistic git for years.......well who would have guessed ?
Yep, he can talk about football, but I can get plenty of semi-coherent blokes to do that, and don't have to pay them £2 million quid a year to wax lyrical.
He's right, a lot of women don't understand the off-side rule, but that's because they find it about as interesting as the workings of an SU carburettor, i.e. not at all.
I play football with a centre forward who, in his mid-fifties, clearly still doesn't understand it. The constant sound of a referee's whistle and a raised flag confirm that week in week out.
So, ladies, wallow happily in the knowledge that knowing an archaic bit of football related crap won't improve your life, and blokes, let's hope they give Andy's slot to a lady.
