  1. TimHood asked John Mason: "How are your proposals on crime different from Labour? Don't you both support initiatives like the Enhanced Policing Plan?"

Show more»" The Enhanced Policing plan has shown a real improvement, driving down
    crime statistics in areas of Glasgow east including reducing incidents of
    knife carrying by 27%.  The SNP's policies not only support the Enhanced
    Policing Plan, we have also invested £200,000 in tackling gangs in our
    communities.  With the SNP Government funding 1000 new police officers
    Strathclyde police have confirmed they will have 465 new officers from the
    Scottish Government in the next 18 months - something the Labour party
    failed to offer the people of scotland and failed to vote for.

    The SNP also wants to take action on the root causes of some of the crime
    and violence in our communities with a new drug strategy to help people
    lead drug free lives, with investment in community facilities for young
    people to divert them from crime - investment coming from cash taken from
    the criminals and drug dealers and new proposals to limit access to the
    cheap booze that often fuels the violence on our streets. "Show less«

  6. TimHood asked Simon Bucks: "In the last week we have seen both Heather Mills and Kate McCann break down in TV interviews. Do you think most news editors regard this as 'good television' or do you think they feel uneasy about it?"
  7. Simon Bucks answers: "Both these interviews were carried out on other channels, so perhaps you should ask the editors of those channels. "

National teams always go through up’s and down’s and we have always been unlucky in major tournaments. I have always thought that foreign players coming in to the game is a good thing for the England team. It teaches us how continental national and club sides play and makes us more aware of how we need to play. "Show less«

As I’m pretty much always connected, I don’t tend to use messaging through Facebook. It shows the power of Reed networks better than anything else though. But, that said, I expect its time will pass.
