I STILL wonder whatever happened to that announcement due in October 2010 to say whether milk from cloned cows is safe to consume or not.

And to consider axing more speed cameras shows even more contempt for public health and safety.

Did someone also say one in three babies born today has a better chance of reaching 100 than their grandparents? Nonsense.

    “This letter is going head to head with DG Betts' letter for 'absolute nonsense of the week'.
    One of them is sure to get the £50 prize.
    Long live ejukashun.”

    Well done, H. At least you broke down the claim with solid evidence and reasoned argument.

    That'll show 'em. They must be making up the claim that the average age people now live to is going up too.”
