Former Education Secretary David Blunkett has ridiculed proposals to fine teenagers who fail to stay in education or training until the age of 18.
A new Education and Skills Bill, confirmed in the Queen's Speech on Tuesday, will require children to stay in education until the age of 18.
Teenagers who refuse to stay on face spot fines of £50 or court fines of £200. Parents could also be fined.
"I'm against the idea... that deeply damaged young men and women could somehow be fined and it would make them go into education or training. I think it's cloud-cuckoo land," Mr Blunkett told BBC Radio 4's Any Questions.
Mr Blunkett, who was education secretary from 1997 to 2001, said he agreed that education or training should continue to the age of 18 but said fines for those who do not comply would be misguided.

do you like this idea???

Sub-standard teachers should be removed from schools to make way for better colleagues, a key government education adviser has suggested.
Sir Cyril Taylor said there were about 17,000 "poor" teachers in England.
They were unable to control classes and were damaging the education of about 400,000 children, he told the BBC.
But head teachers said it was sometimes difficult to recruit good staff, while teachers said their job was made harder by issues such as paperwork.

do you agree that "poor" teachers should be sacked, who will teach the classes without them, do we have any "good teachers"

Formula One star Lewis Hamilton has admitted he is moving to Switzerland partly to avoid the UK taxman.
The 22-year-old McLaren driver, from Stevenage in Herts, previously cited privacy as his reason for leaving.
But he admitted on television chat show Parkinson that tax was an issue as well as the photographers pursuing him.

Does it make sense that supporters of the strike who are participants in the national Nielsen ratings could shut off their TV's in protest? Wouldn't that send a message to the stations? After all, if their precious advertising doesn't meet the masses, how effective is it?

As an Englishman and owner of many US based companies I really must ask this.I am a great drinker, usually downing 20+ pints of Stella strong lager every night, but as I stagger home i usually feel a little sick.In my opinion there is nothing worse than seeing puke in the streets the morning after, so I tend to puke into people gardens.Recently i have taken this a little further and I now have a trail of plant pots in people gardens that i have puked in.
I think I am being responsible for not making a mess

We read that the McCanns had three distict periods of opportunity to hide their daughters body on the 3rd May.

WINDOW ONE: The hour between 7.30pm and 8.30pm as Kate and Gerry prepared for dinner.

WINDOW TWO: The minutes after 9pm when Gerry left the dinner table. He has said he was the first to check on the group's children during dinner and left the poolside tapas restaurant at 9.05pm, returning 15 minutes later after chatting to a pal.

WINDOW THREE: 10pm, when Kate raises the alarm after leaving the tapas restaurant to check on the children.

Is there a shocking twist to the McCann case, and is there yet further time periods when the McCanns story or version of events just does not add up ?

I spent about an hour responding to a question put by Cheesy-of-Wisconsin. My question is: does the Questioner have the ability to remove the whole sequence? (He probably wouldn't have liked my answer, it was too good) On the other hand, my answer was probably the closest to the truth of what happened to Maddie McCann.....could the McCann club possibly have had any thing to do with this removal???? Are they monitering this forum? This is very spooky! And also, Cheesy's profile is closed to view, so I can't check if his question is still posted or not. Could Cheesy be the monitering vehicle (spy) for the McCanns?

If it's not one thing being recalled, its another. Pet food to lettuce, then to toys painted with lead paint, and now this. What is going on? How does a company not realize that they've coated a toy with lead paint, or in this case a toxic drug? Or do they not care anymore?

Where is this world headed?

Not just because of his film, but because I work in the healthcare industry and have seen the evils, took part in them, been subject to them, and I'm really pissed off about the current state of things. Everyone should see that movie, it's really well done. Bravo Michael! Keep em coming. Maybe something about global warming next time?
