As I said before if she gets in a locum and she takes advantage of all her media work opportunities (while they're on offer) it may make more sense financially. BTW, Gavin Jennings, the Morning Ireland Presenter is a qualified GP too but he has opted for a career on radio.

How about asking, "Should drivers be jailed for manslaughter if they kill people?", which is far more apposite, though it wouldn't suit George because he's already been convicted of speeding. He's a fcuking idiot and I'm glad he's been permanently silenced.

The most vulnerable on the roads are pedestrians i was asking a question if a cyclist killed a pedestrian are there any laws to prosecute them for it? If there isn't then i could see why he was bringing it up. If i kill someone in my car then i can be done for dangerous driving causing death, why should a cyclist get a free pass if they have broken the law?
Harry Angstrom wrote: » Tell me how many cyclists kill people, as opposed to the number of car drivers who kill people? No "angry cyclist stick" here, I'm just looking at it from a reasonable point of view, which Hook obviously doesn't. Considering twice as many cyclists have been killed on the roads already this year compared to the whole of 2016, I am absolutely delighted that windbag Hook is gone. As I said, he's a fcuking idiot.

At least once a week I have words with a cyclist who I'm sharing the footpath with. Take a look at the attached picture, I took this picture a few months back when a cyclist insisted on cycling on a footpath. This sort of idiotic behaviour is dangerous especially for elderly people or young children using the paths.
Harry Angstrom wrote: » Don't get me wrong Lady C, I have no time for cyclists who use footpaths, but in the grand scheme of things, if a cyclist does something silly they'll usually end up paying the price.
Lady Chatterton wrote: » I have to disagree with this, if you're a pedestrian and you're injured by a cyclist, you have zero comeback. They don't have reg plates on their bikes and most won't have any form of insurance. An elderly neighbour of my parents was hit by a cyclist, she broke her wrist and the cyclist sped off. Some cyclists have zero respect for pedestrians.

Harry Angstrom wrote: » Statistically speaking, the number of cyclists who injure pedestrians compared to the number of motorists who injure or cause death to pedestrians is negligible. Hook blew it all out of proportion because it suited his twisted agenda. It didn't help that his constant crusade against cyclists came in the wake of more cyclist fatalities than ever before.

Very very rarely for cyclists. But how many of those motorists are done for manslaughter? Rarer than hen's teeth. :rolleyes:

Not some rubbish that men, who mostly tune into the station, do not want to listen to on their lunches. Leave that rubbish for the weekend or just give Moncrief a longer shift, that kind of fluffy studenty empty waffle would suit his show. (I have to had it to Sean Moncrieff, he has a brilliant way of making obscure, pointless , fluffy topics sound interesting)
