World News Headlines.
 

A woman having a baby?:eek: gawd thats one hell of a shock. Personally think its pathetic that the headlines are this,wouldn't wish em any ill, but come on,is there sod all happening in the world that aint more important than this?:rolleyes:

Re: World News Headlines.
 

Yes, Cashy, there is much much more...but much of it isn't worth rejoicing over.
A new baby in any family is a cause for celebration...it is just that the media do it to death...and that must be blamed on the media...not the new parents(who I am sure would have liked to have their baby privately and without all of this fuss and furore).

Sky News on Channel 501 has now rebranded it'self as " Sky Royal Womb"

Re: World News Headlines.
 

Oh i do blame the media,any birth should be a celebration fer the family's involved end of, as fer much of it not worth rejoicing oer agreed, but at least its proper news. This to me is no different to any lass having a baby. At least it will never have to concern itself oer mundane stuff, like mortgage, food, clothes, etc unlike normal people.

Re: World News Headlines.
 

Bull start yer own thread if yeh wanna do that.:rolleyes:

Re: World News Headlines.
 

Re: World News Headlines.

Re: World News Headlines.
 

Re: World News Headlines.
 

So why did you kick this thread off Mr C..??
1 For a pithy debate
or
2 Everybody to nod and agree with you?

Re: World News Headlines.
 

I didn't forget, i couldn't care less what its for. unless yeh want a medal fer it.:rolleyes:

Re: World News Headlines.
 

No don't expect everyone to agree wi me, I started it off cos its irritating to me, that proper news is put back, can understand reporting the fact, But Main Headlines no way fer me. Have people not to start threads unless yeh happen to like em or what.:rolleyes: If thats the way yeh would like it, then its no wonder sites die, if theres a lot like you.

Re: World News Headlines.
 

If you are irritated by yesterdays coverage in the media..stand by to be irritated in spades over the next days and weeks.
Still it's better than the changing of the guard over at M16 ;)

Re: World News Headlines.
 

I know that damn well, were possible i shall be ignoring news progs n buying papers till the dust settles.

Re: World News Headlines.
 

i'm happy that the future king was born on my nephews 2nd birthday

Re: World News Headlines.
 

That's gonna look good on his CV and opens few doors for him in later life. eh?

Re: World News Headlines.
 

My thoughts entirely cashy, The flaming BBC are bloody useless, this morning it was wall to wall royal baby on breakfast, but they weren't satisfied with that there was a program change at 11am then again at 11-30am, how much can you say about one kid royal or no royal, but the most annoying thing of all they were running exactly the same program on the BBC News Channel as BBC1 at the same time, marvelous, and I suppose this will go on every time the baby farts over the next few weeks.

Re: World News Headlines.
 

i suppose the big news is the royal family gene pool has been expanded a little now theres a bit of slighlty more common blood in the family

up to now the royal family were basicaly dingles with the ability to use a knife and fork

folk wanna celebrate a woman doing what women have been doing for thousands of years then so be it but please dont make out she is any better than any other woman for spitting a kid out .

its basically born into a life of benefits although get the royal buggy does sound a little posher than get mi pram lol

Re: World News Headlines.
 

BBC's a bloody pain for that. To put it bluntly theres a difference between sheitin and riving your arse.

Re: World News Headlines.
 

The Private Eye magazine are showing up the other newspapers - for the overblown hype

Re: World News Headlines.
 

Oh no, I thought I was original. I, funnily enough, didn't have the pomp and ceremony when I had my three kids. I had a right royal time of it though (think of a bloke having his nads squeezed constantly for a day or two ) . Congrats to the world's first Mother and Father.

World News Headlines.
 

No doubt the politicians are trying their best to sneak bad news past us while this is going on.
Good luck to the parents and their child, but thank goodness I don't feel a need to be caught up in the hype.

If someone could send me an autographed photo of the infant, I will treasure it all the way to eBay.

Re: World News Headlines.
 

As i'm on here news time, i suppose the headline today is "Royal Baby Sups Its Bottle"?:rolleyes:

World News Headlines.
 

Hardly fair Cashy, could be, father objects to sharing wife's tits!

With both my kids, if I had to put them to bed, my parting words were always, "just remember, as soon as you are weened, I will reclaim them."

Re: World News Headlines.
 

It's being reported the UK economy will benefit some where around $400 million.:(
Hrrrrmphhhh.....
There's some creative accounting involved there I reckon.:(

Righty o ..must get back to knitting the bootees I gonna send em ;)

Re: World News Headlines.
 

in a culture i cant quite recall teh name of the male is placed above the woman and a piece of string attatched to his testicles.During child birth the woman pulls on the string although im betting tehres more string pulling that what there are contractions but whos gonna argue with a woman holding your testicles:D
.
i bet by the time the baby is born they look like a pair of punctured space hoppers:eek:

Re: World News Headlines.
 

you're all a miserable lot, any new born baby is something to be celebrated, i for one am very happy for the couple, and for the future king

now take all your sour faces off the floor and smile about something for a change :D

Re: World News Headlines.
 

I bet the bloke wished he'd given birth himself. At least he'd have had something to show for it .

Re: World News Headlines.
 

Looks like you've nicked Jays keyboard again.:D:D:D:D

Re: World News Headlines.
 

I don't know if anyone on here can answer this question, but here goes. It's been reported that the new baby is third in line to the throne. However, if Charles died tomorrow then the Queen's oldest living son would be Andrew. Would he not then be first in line to the throne?

Re: World News Headlines.
 

It's all about first borns..dontcha watch Game of Thrones or what? ;)

If Chuck was childless it would be Andy.
If Billy was childless it would be 'arry.
Currently Andy is 5th I think.

Chuck-Billy-Newbie-'arry- Andy

Re: World News Headlines.
 

Andrew as king now that would be worth seeing:D, or harry for that matter:joint::alc::drunk::s_drunk::flasher8:

Re: World News Headlines.
 

Thanks for that, G.

Re: World News Headlines.
 

i hope this kid behaves.

.

poor people have the naughty step.

.

the royals have the naughty tunnel and you only go down that once and you never misbehave again

Re: World News Headlines.
 

I was wasn't in the least bit impressed that I had to wait for Emmerdale. Pfttt.

Re: World News Headlines.
 

dont tell me ..

back to back nappy adverts as well

Re: World News Headlines.
 

He would have if Charles didn't have a son. As it is William, being second in line to the throne would get the job. With the new baby being born everyone else moves down a place. Harry is now fourth in line to the throne and any further children from William would push him down a place each time and everyone else behind him etc.:)

Re: World News Headlines.
 

One things certain, no matter how many pop out, he won't have to claim "Jobseekers":rolleyes:

Re: World News Headlines.
 

Ya granny has a shilling or two put to one side for a rainy day ;)

Re: World News Headlines.
 

Talking to me mum this morning I said at least the baby will never want for anything. She flashed back 'no, cos we're all paying for it '. Happy days!!

Re: World News Headlines.

Re: World News Headlines.

Re: World News Headlines.
 

Today's headliner is that the Mayor, on behalf of all the inhabitants of the Borough of Hyndburn, has sent a message of congratulations to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on the birth of their son.

I hope she remembered to put your name in the card Cashy;)

Well done Judith!

Re: World News Headlines.
 

Well done! Well Done? So our Mayor has been caught up in the Hype?

The way the town is we need someone that keeps their feet on the ground.

That child will never want for anything, unfortunately around here there are plenty that will.
:(

Re: World News Headlines.
 

I think he may want for a quiet life and privacy at some point...

As to children going wanting in Great Britain (I emphasise the "Great" as it is a great place to live especially during a recession) - I don't believe there are any unless they have neglectful parents whom society fails to detect.

There will be some who have less material things than others depending on their circumstances but they should all have access to health-care, education and the basic necessities which are guaranteed under the welfare state.

Judith has her feet firmly on the ground and is extremely conscientious in her Mayoral duties. I read her daily blog and can assure you she takes her position very seriously, dedicating a great deal of her time to the community. :)

Re: World News Headlines.
 

Gotta take exception to that one. That's what the right wing want you to believe, every time someone mentions welfare they bring out some drug addled, alcoholic chav as typical of the average person on benefits. This lot have carefully ignored the figures showing that less than 70p in every £100 of benefits are falsely claimed, thats 0.07%.

I could link numerous stories regarding the failing NHS, the lack of trained staff, the unecessary deaths of babies, could also link just what teachers think of the education system and the way they are being forced to follow a curriculum that even a blind man can see will not work, as for basic necessities, seen the growing number of foodbanks recently.

As for neglectful parenting, I'd say sending your kids away to boarding school is fairly neglectful parenting.
