  • Andy, Boycotting an organisation such as Tesco that spends millions with News Corp is a rational, logical action, some might call it a moral imperative. A boycott of the police is difficult- although given the corruption unearthed by the phone-ha…
  • Police have been doing that for years, and not just to NOTW.
  • I don't buy the Sun, NOTW, will never buy The Times and don't have Sky. Targetting those that pay NOTW/New Corp to carry their advertising is a valid protest. Tesco is one of the biggest supporters of NOTW via its advertising. From what I have read,…

  • Hello there everyone - I'm Les from Hanley Road. Lived on this road for over ten years. Love the area and love the site. I'm Irish, have a son (born in Archway) and a Norwegian wife called Aud. You've probably seen me around and given me a wide bert…
  • Some guy dropped dead. I walked past him with my son as the paramedics where putting a blanket over his face. He was wearing Caterpillar boots and had grey hair, but thats all i could see. A few people who had been attending him (two i think) were c…
  • Papagone by a long, long country mile. You know they once put banana on a pizza for my extremely hard to please sister when she was visiting.
