? She said Labour's policy review was looking at "the right way to reverse bus deregulation". Photograph: Linda Nylind for the Guardian 3.41pm: Delegates have been debating contemporary motions on jobs, growth and employment rights, and on public services. The debate has been reasonably lively, with several union leaders speaking out. Gerry Docherty, the general secretary of the TSSA transport union, said that he hoped to see the rail industry taken back into public ownership. Gail Cartmail from Unite said that if public sector workers went on strike over pensions, they would not just expect solidarity from Labour; they would demand it. And Dave Prentis (left), the Unison general secretary, dismissed suggestions that strikes were always ineffective and a sign of failure.
Ed Davey, the energy secretary, said:We need hundreds of billions of pounds of investment in clean energy projects in the UK. This will bring high-skilled job opportunities the length and breadth of the country. Construction workers, engineers, technicians - they will all have a role to play. There are plans for new nuclear in Somerset, Suffolk, Cumbria, North Wales and Gloucestershire. Supply chains will spring up too, and extend the reach of economic benefit across the country … The deals we will see signed today reflect our ongoing desire to work closely together with our French allies and the private sector on nuclear, and across the energy mix.10.12am: The prime minister's car has just arrived at the Elysee Palace.
" Tempering some fears about the bill,the authors added that the resolutionshouldn't "be construed as an authorization for the use of force or a declaration of war" by the U.S. Though the caveat will surely placate some members of Congress,it seems potentially at odds with a pledge of "military... support" in the event of an attack—language that,though unlikely for now,if actuated into policy could suggest the U.S. would be dragged into a war based on an Israeli decision to strike."Initiating a war is the gravest step any nation can take," said Columbia University professor Gary Sick,an Iran expert and former White House official. "This legislation would effectively entrust that decision to a regional state.
Fleming changed his mind when his secretary told him Connery "had something."The man who never lost a fight in the movies was,in his literary incarnation,not physically imposing. SMERSH estimated his height at "183 centimeters,weight 76 kilograms,slim build." Or six feet and 168 pounds. Fleming's Bond is no superman,though the Russians thought him an "all-round athlete,expert pistol shot,boxer,knife-thrower… knows the basic holds of judo. In general,fights with tenacity and has a high tolerance of pain." Lucky for him,because in all the 1950s books he is tortured by people who mean business,not supervillains like in the movies who want to explain their plans and show him their erector-set operations with inexplicably obvious self-destruct buttons.
Johnson got into trouble with the Tory hierarchy after attacking the housing benefit cap mentioned above as risking "Kosovo-style social cleansing of London".But he rowed back from his outspoken remarks the same day and said: "I do not agree with the wild accusations from defenders of the current system that reform will lead to social cleansing. It will not and, if you listened carefully to what I said, no such exodus will take place on my watch."During the last election campaign Johnson said he would create a network of community land trusts where communities own the land where houses are built, sell the houses cheaply, and the owners agree to sell them back to the trust at a fixed rate when they move on.
Witherspoon charmed her way to the A-list in Legally Blonde. She charmed her way to an Oscar by dutifully adhering to her girl-next-door image. And now,by swilling "one too many glasses of wine" and sassily informing a cop that she is,in fact,"AN AMERICAN," she is charming her way out of a career rut. Her actions and those of her husband were irresponsible and arguably reprehensible. But,really,has Witherspoon ever been so likable? When news broke that Witherspoon was arrested,the Internet collectively gasped. Celebrities get arrested all the time—that's not shocking. But this is Reese Witherspoon: down-home,girl-next-door,put-together,and,frankly,boring Reese Witherspoon.
From Simon Walker, director general of the Institute of DirectorsReducing the amount the state spends on benefits is imperative if we are to set our country's finances back on the right track. The rising cost of an ageing population means that we need to get a grip on spending before it is too late.However, the prime minister should be aiming for wholesale reform rather than changes in a few selected areas. There can be no sacred cows, and means-testing benefits like free TV licences and bus passes for the elderly should also be considered." From Nick Pearce of the IPPR thinktankWhatever else it does, Cameron's speech makes a full spending review before the next election more unlikely. These are Tory, not Govt plans.
" The Washington Post’s Pultizer Prize–winning book columnist Michael Dirda think that "he does have certain strikes against him." For one,he is still relatively young. "Perhaps more of an obstacle,his books are enormously popular and readable,
