Interestingly the end of the piece I saw on brekkie news today seemed to be saying the organ donation organisations are against an opt-out scheme. They think it might make people anti-donation because of a perception of life-saving treatment being withheld if they have a good set of organs.
It said the same thing in this articule to!
The Prime Minister is still in favour of a 'presumed consent plan' if a new awareness campaign Failed to get more people signing up to organ donation.
I myself believe in organ donation and would want whatever can be used to be use after I have gone.
But this is something I have decided to do and join up to. But I do believe there could be issues related to the opt out scheme.
Would care for people that are ill still be paramount to that person?
Would all babies born be automatically on the scheme?
Would this be removing choice, as I feel to agree to something isnt the same and having to opt out.
What are others view?

I would just like to say I have read all your posts in this thread, and really like what you have said. Your responses to me have been very logical and you see the wider picture, I for one have not read anything about this case, I don't like newspapers I blame them for a lot of what this country feels today, I feel they can brainwash a lot to think in a certain way, and some people just don't see what is happening.
We all know there are children at risk, we all know mistakes happen surely isnt that the way things hopefully improve?
Look back in time to how children were treated I think you only have to read Charles Dickens to appreciate that, to where we are today.
I believe we have as a society come a long way.
It is never going to be perfect, but then life isn't perfect.

I think i said earlier in the debate that was the figure I'd read somewhere, 1 child per week on average.
I'd be interested to know how many children have not become a statistic due to successfull child protection intervention, unfortunately we never seem to hear about that do we?
This is the whole problem I have with the blame culture in this country, people are content to sit and throw allegations of negligence, without knowing the full facts, without accounting for the good work done, this prevents people from joining and encourages those already doing it to leave the profession, anyone of whom may somewhere down the line be in a position save a child in this situation. I've seen suggestions that the social workers in this case are as guilty of this childs murder as those convicted?
How the hell can anyone justify that accusation? One particular post on this thread really summed it up for me, 'Fuck up and get fucked up' If there was ever a case of the elephant in the room being utterly invisible, that was it.
This whole situation is nothing more than mass hysteria, started and fanned by the media coverage of this case, I said it at the start and I'll maintain it, all the hand wringing, vitriol toward social workers, blame, unsupported allegations and trial by media won't make a damn bit of difference in either this case, or the next one, because sure as the sun will rise, there will be others.
Unless of course child protection becomes the absolute priority it should always have been. In which case people will have to accept over-protectiveness, which it seems the various agencies involved get villified for as well.
Simple equation;
You can't have it both ways, which do you prefer?
I have a friend that has fostered for years, I know personally of 6 children that have gone on to be adopted and SS have got it right these children are thriving. But sadly I know of one that it was deemed by doctors that mother could have her child back, but unfortunately she wasn’t of stable mind and the child is no longer with us, I can still see his smile some 10 years on.

for the benefit of our younger members, and I know there may be a few people slightly younger and fresher than myself, hard to believe, but true!
Ms Rantzen was a Mega-Star in the seventies and eighties (the seventies refering to a decade prior to the dawn of the modern era with the forming of Wham) where she used to host a television show called "That's Life".
the simple folk of the era had to watch this programme, as strange as itmay seem, there were only three television channels to choose from... the other channels broadcasting religious mania, or political propoganda.
The sole purpose, I believe of "That's Life" was to present the goods and chattel of the nations co-operative farms and state sponsored entertainers in as lighthearted a manner concievable for its time.
Much fun was had in the power-cut days from viewing mis-shapen vegatables on television... with very risque references to genitalia. Highly cutting edge for its time, and Ms Rantzen and crew were indeed running the risk of being exciled to the soup mines of the Wash.
rrrespek!

Like Ms Rantzen or loathe her, but some would say she used TV in a stuctured way to get things done.
A few of the things that arrived out of the back of the programme were.
Seat belts in the back of cars so children could be straped in, playground surfaces replaced from concrete to the types we have now, and childline was set up through her.

The mother has had another baby whilst in prison! It just gets worse.
From what I have read, the police are the only ones who had any brains in this case, they told SS NOT to return babyp to the mother several times.
Mothers like these will continue to have babies unfortunately as to deny them that right will infringe on their human rights.
This to me is where the law should be changed. The rights of people to be parents should be taken away once it is proven without reasonable doubt that the parent is unfit to be one, by inflicting such suffering upon a child as this case shows.

Just a link!
does it have either side of it?
If not there is your problem and where is your pic from? general internet or a image hosting site?
ermm I don't know about the Img bit will try again tonight.
I tryed all the different ways you stated I used photobucket and went into images on google.
I even tried copying and pasting onto a work document.
I am just dim I think!

Birds are magic!
It is only thier life-force that binds them loosely to the laws of gravity... this is what actually allows them to sit on a branch, or wade in a puddle should they choose.
At death, they are no longer bound by Mr Newtons apple-meets-bonce theory, and the recently deceased flapper quite litterally falls upwards!
I read somewhere that the Moon's Sea of Tranquility is slowly filling up with desicated feathered friends as they fall up to the satellite and impact with such force that they cover themselves with a small layer of dust, thus not being visable from here.
It was Armstrong who said: "That's one small sparrow for man, one large TV dinner for man-kind" when he had to dodge an incoming corpse, and discovering the many layered, well preserved remains underfoot.
when the mobile phone you so love looses its contact... that could most likely be another dish-impact on a communications satellite.
Other birds miss the local objects in space (satellite, moon, orbiting planets) and become interplanetary.

I was sitting here gazing out of the window watching the birds in the sky!
And just wondered as I so often do!
Where do birds go to die?
Well there are so many birds about and I have never seen one just drop out of the sky, there are not heaps of them in woods on the floor.
Maybe some bright spark will come along and give me the answer. :P
Have you ever just wondered?
Share them here and see if we can get answers to our wondering!

After talking to my son last night got me to ask you this question!
My 12 year old son achieved something way and beyond what he dreamed of and I being proud told my family and close friends. My son got upset with me as he said I had bragged about him and he feels embarrassed.
I explained that wasn’t what I said it for and others wouldn’t see it that way as I am just as pleased to hear about their children as its good to share happy new.
My son just couldn’t see my explanation.
What do others think?
Is being proud and telling people seen as bragging?
Would you tell family and friends something that you are proud of?
Do others see it as bragging?
