This will give them the recognition they need.........Amodeus et us not lose sight of how this was simply a demented and deadly person, akin to those we have seen throughout ...

Jimmy Saville is still dominating the headlines-and it has become an avalanche of people coming from nowhere to claim abuse. It has also become a trial by media. We are not happy about this but believe punishment is due should the claims be totally proven. Spain is in the middle of a crisis within a crisis as the Catalans are pressing for independence. The Minister for Education has made a faux pas and the King seems to have spoken to him about his aspirations for Cataluña.
