Is it any wonder Adam Boulton got animated in his interview with Labour’s chief spin doctor Alastair Campbell? The guy seems like a total wind-up merchant. That said, this is how news and politics reporting should be!

Police rudeness

Is it any wonder people do not respect the Police? I have just given way to a police car in Worthing and I received no thanks from the public servant driving the car.

In fact I am not even sure the police officer even realised I was letting him through such was the conversation he was having with his colleague.

I’d rather be a street cleaner than a policeman, at least people in this profession don’t take their status for granted.

I know there are some good policeman and women, but there are others in the profession that are nothing more than dullards. Not thanking a fellow motorist for not letting them pass is nothing more than supreme arrogance.

Extra Holiday for UK SEO’s in 2012

Actually the title is a bit of a lie; it is not just an extra holiday for SEO’s in 2012, the whole population is getting an extra day’s holiday as a celebration of the Queen’s 60 years as Head of State.

Hooray, Extra Holidays for SEO’s

The good news is, the extra day the Government are giving us is being merged with the late May Bank Holiday and will be turned into a four day holiday in early June, FANTASTIC!

The only beef I have with this, is why do we have to wait until 2012? We are the poor relations in Europe when it comes to Bank Holidays and it is high time we were given another day by the state year in year out and not just in 2012.

European Bank Holidays

UK – 8 days a year
France – 10 days a year
Germany – Ave 9 days a year
Greece – Average 10 days a year

Day Off Countdown

The countdown starts here to your additional day off in 2012 – At the time of writing that is only 517* days to wait! The sad thing is, the government are not really giving us an extra day at all, as 2012 is a Leap Year and subsequently we have an extra day bestowed upon us.

So for anyone thinking they are getting an extra day off courtesy of celebrating the Queen’s reign, forget it, what we get given, gets taken away!
