Nanny Bans Photos Again!

Camera ban
Nanny's photo police have been up to their old tricks again, ever fearful that an innocent photo of a child may in fact be for nefarious purposes.

Nanny rigidly follows her mantra "Won't someone think of the children?"

Sheila Campbell, the 85 year old mother of Nicky Campbell (a TV personality), found this to her cost recently when she went with her 4 granddaughters (aged between 5 and 10) to the Royal Commonwealth Pool in Edinburgh.

Mrs Campbell was happily about to take a photo of them when, blinky blonky blimey, one of Nanny's pool attendants popped up from nowhere and forbade her from taking a picture.

There were no other children nearby, therefore it was clear that she was taking a picture of her own grandchildren.

Mrs Campbell was worried that the attendant, were she to take the picture, would have confiscated her camera.

She is old enough to have been in the last war, when we fought against this sort of thing. I wonder if she now feels that the sacrifices that she and her contemporaries made were worth it? My late father (who was in the Atlantic convoys) used to look at how the state (and its minions) behaves, and would muse that the effort and sacrifice had been for nothing.

Nicky Campbell said:

"I am sorry.... I don't think my mother looks like a paedophile or a terrorist."

A spokesman for Edinburgh Leisure, that runs the swimming pool, claims that there is no ban on photography. Therefore why did the lickspittle of an attendant ban Mrs Campbell from taking the photo?

Were the attendant to seriously believe that Mrs Campbell was taking a photo for evil purposes then surely he should have reported her to the police, and had her camera searched for evil pictures. The fact that he didn't shows that he had not the slightest thought in his head about this, other than the power rush a little man gets when he is given a tiny amount of power over another human being.

These "little man" jobsworths need to be expunged from any position of control/power they may have.

Prats of The Week - Sainsburys

Prats of The WeekFull marks to Sainsburys for going above and beyond the call of duty to win my coveted, and internationally prestigious, "Prats of The Week" Award.

Lewis Peagam, a balding 28 year old bank manager, was going about his regular shopping in Sainsburys Birmingham. Within his purchases was a DVD of the family film "Firehouse Dog" (no sex or violence), rated PG.

There he was was at checkout, ready to pay when.....

...blinky, blonky, blimey...

Can you guess what happened next children?

Yes, that's right, the checkout operative refused to sell him the film unless he showed proof that he was over 18.

I would remind you at this stage that the film is a family film, not a slash and gore or acrobatic porno film.

Mr Peagam's work colleague was with him, and offered her driving licence as proof of her age.

Can you guess what happened next children?

Yes, that's right, the checkout operative refused to sell it:

"You're only buying it for him."

Sainsburys, well deserving Prats of The Week!

Swimming Banned

DrownNanny is, as we know, a tad worked up over health and safety issues. However, even by her standards this is completely stupid.

It all began during a "Boredom Busters" session for children (why do children need to have every waking moment of their live's structured by Nanny? Why can't they be bored for a bit?) in a swimming pool at Stourfield Infants School in Bournemouth.

A six year old girl allegedly slipped into the pool. Thus it was emergency services were called.

She was taken to Poole Hospital for treatment, and later discharged.

Nanny then promptly banned swimming sessions for children.

Service director for children's learning and engagement ("engagement"??!!, where does Nanny get these ridiculous phrases from?), Di Mitchell, said:

"The safety and well being of children is our number one concern and the team on site worked swiftly to respond to this incident and immediately called in the ambulance and police services.

Following the incident we took the decision to cease the swimming sessions that were scheduled at the school this week and we are now undertaking a thorough investigation to determine how this incident occurred
."

So let's get this straight, Nanny deems that it is too dangerous to teach children to swim lest they have an accident.

What happens then, given that Bournemouth is by the coast, were a child to fall into the sea and drown because Nanny had banned swimming lessons?

Isn't this ban rather stupid?

Won't someone think of the children?????

Knobheaded Twats of The Millennium - Tesco

Twats!My thanks to Curmudgeon for alerting us to this story of utter Twattery (ooh...David Cameron's "banned" word!) from the supermarket aisles of Tesco.

Roy Downie, who is disabled, was attempting to buy a bottle of wine at Tesco Portsmouth. He was with his 16 year old daughter (Holly), who helps him carry shopping, because he needs assistance to get it back to his car.

The staff at Tesco refused to serve Mr Downie, because (yes, that's right) they decreed that he may be buying the wine for his daughter.

Mr Downie had to go back to the store, later on his own and buy the wine, and carry it back in the bag between his teeth.

No member of staff from Tesco bothered to help him.

Boycott Tesco!

Tesco, well deserving of my rare but highly prestigious "Knobheaded Twats of The Millennium" Award.

Boycott Asda

Boycott AsdaAsda have joined the ranks of supermarkets who choose to add to Nanny's rules and regulations wrt booze.

Mark Brown was shopping with his 15 year old daughter in Asda's Brighton store, and tried to buy some wine. Asda refused to sell it to him, unless she had ID to prove her age.

The fact that the wine was for him was irrelevant to the staff at Asda.

Asda claim that they were "erring on the side of caution in line with national guidelines".

Nonsense, adults are allowed to buy booze!

Would the supermarkets prefer that people keep their kids at home in future, thus depriving them of millions in revenue resulting from the purchase of "I want" items such as sweets?

Boycott Asda to hurt them where it matters, in their pockets.

Harperson

HarpersonHere's some free advice to Harriet Harperson, wrt her playing at being prime Minister.

Doubtless madam you are enjoying playing at being in charge. However, your suggestion that rape trials should have conviction targets is dangerous, to say the least.

Either the accused is guilty or innocent, you cannot set targets for convictions.

The setting of targets for convictions is the road to dictatorship, and a police state.

You of course are "intelligent" enough to know this, but you have placed your political career and headlines above principles and democracy.

Make the most of playing at being PM, you will never hold the office legitimately.
