Comment on Man sees Jesus in his packed lunch by Graeme

Was it prudent for young Tom to devour the image of the Son of God along with the rest of his exotic lunch considering this is yet more evidence of the long overdue second coming?

Comment on Brighton priest ‘feels sorry’ for Jamie Bulger’s killer by Colin Harte

Fr Blake is not making light of the terrible murder of Jamie Bulger — far from it. But he is saying that no matter how great our sins are God wants us to turn to him for forgiveness because he is infinitely merciful. If God is compassionate, wanting Jon Venables to turn to him with sorrow for forgiveness and for the healing of his damaged soul that comes with forgiveness, then it is surely right for a priest to feel sorry for him — to be compassionate and to bring him God’s mercy. It is the role of a priest to bring God’s mercy to sinners (and we are all sinners!). Kudos to Fr Blake and all priests like him.

Comment on Brighton cycle train pilot to start in March by CW

It is a completly unnecessary annoyance on a dual carriageway which has a perfectly good cycle lane there. I speak both as a motorist and a cyclist.

As a motorist, it is a nuisance to have to overtake.

As a cyclist, I have seen no need for it in 5 years of cycling that route. Furthermore it is not only a nuisance to have to overtake, it is also dangerous. This group moves slowly and is oblivioius to other road users, including other cyclists. It takes up the whole of the cycle lane and inside lane of the Lewes road, meaning that if I want to overtake on my bike, I am forced into the outside lane. Unfortunately, this means competing for space with the (rightfully) angry car drivers who have had to wait to get round it.

I would fully understand the point of this group if there was no cycle lane, but there is, so use it. In my opinion, these people only do it to inconvenience motorists because they are anti-motorists/pro-hippy/naive and have nothing better to do.

Comment on Brighton and Hove apprentices used as ‘cheap labour’, union claims by Andy Richards

Just weasel words from the Council. They’ve been caught redhanded and they are now trying to row back from what they proposed originally.

The posts they are seeking to get rid of are Senior Finance Officers and Finance Officers – just how “junior” are these posts?
