    Anon,

    The police did not prosecute because ofteh smack, they prosecuted because ofa brused that was on a dofferent part of the body to where the boy was smacked.

    Fronm the little we know of this case, I would have thought that you could have at least got that bit correct.

    This Dave is an intellectual giant eh. Is it "our" Dave?
    Am I being unfair?

    <quote>I have no idea - neither does RB, neither does Sue Bradford, Gordon Copeland, Bob McCoskrie - and neither do you.<quote>
    But it doesn't stop you spouting off with your ideologically based argument.
    The fact is that we now have a workable law that addresses child abuse. You, on the other hand seem to advocate defence for the abuser against defence of the defenceless. But let's think of the children EH?

    Kevin. So. The first time you bash the living daylights out of your kid you should get slapped with a wet bus ticket?

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Look up fascicle in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.

    A fascicle is a bundle or a cluster.

    Fascicle may also refer to:
    Muscle fascicle, in anatomy, a bundle of skeletal muscle fibers surrounded by connective tissue
    Nerve fascicle, in anatomy, a larger bundle of fibers enclosed by the perineurium
    a bundle of thin leaves of pines
    A discrete section of a book issued or published separately.

    Bum. It is actually a word and used in the context "the fascicle protest at parliament was a case in point." was not, entirely, inappropriate. Speshly the perineurium bit.
    ;-)

    And there I was thinking you'd invented a new word that spanned the concepts of farcical, and facile (and possibly even fascist) in one fantastic flash of inspiration.... Shame it was a typo in the end.

    It wasnt me it was my keyboard. It does it all the time.
    Here's one from "Hard News: Dopamine psychosis and other great nights out"

    P.S. my keyboard just invented a new word "alcashol" might be better with an "E" "Alcashole, a person that cannot hold their liquor"
    Things go better with an "E" ;-)

    I have a smartarse keyboard eh?

    Um, care to expand on that a little?

    Ok, are you sitting comfortably, then I shall begin.

    The cry from the right on the EFB (this bit means the people of a right wing viewpoint have been complaining about the Electoral Finance Bill) has been, mainly (past tense and not equivocally) on the basis of the belief that the bill reduces the right of free speech ( it has been said that the said bill may reduce the availability of the right of free speech although we do not have a constitutional right as such but under human rights legislation this point is covered) but the tactics of the right, including the actions of National in the house is to shout down any opposition to their wants (as anyone who has observed the proceedings in Parliament over the past few days will have noticed, the National party has, at every opportunity, shouted the Government down during question time and general discussion time) the fascicle protest at parliament was a case in point. (Farcicle, ok typo, A lawful protest it may have been but is it not too much for those present to give speakers the right to speak?)

    Expanded enough for you ;-)

    and please spare me the size queen ballocks

    I've spared them for you and sent them, in an unmarked brown package, to the address you supplied before your "election advertisement"
