Common sense is not one of the finest attributes of many of today's PC policepersons.

This is not a recent development. For very many years our country - and others - have been primarily operated by a so-called higher level of society. It's a club formed by the rich and influential and it's prime objective is to guarantee they get the best possible returns. Every decision is maneuvered toward that objective. The rest of society - the workers - are of no concern other than that they are kept in a reasonable condition to work............

This was published by Wikileaks some years ago - and very frightening it was too...............it has since been taken down and is no longer available..........

That is reassuring Lindyloo. I know a lot of people on the island have downloaded it. Certainly my friends have. There were reports about the battery drain and I have not had a chance to ask my friends.

Probably best to ask those who know...........second-hand opinions are pretty worthless.

It was in the press apparently - on checking the telegraph. But yes I will ask my friends. They are really up for the app.
