Victims 'told not to report' Jehovah's Witness child abuse
Children who were sexually abused by Jehovah's Witnesses were allegedly told by the organisation not to report it.
Victims from across the UK told the BBC they were routinely abused and that the religion's own rules protected perpetrators. One child abuse lawyer believes there could be thousands of victims across the country who have not come forward because of a "two witness" rule. The organisation said it did not "shield" abusers. Details: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-42025255 Unlike other recent abuse / harrassment allegations, I'm not surprised that the Jehovah's Witnesses are now in the spotlight. I wonder why?...

Talks on forming a coalition government in Germany have collapsed, leaving Angela Merkel facing her biggest challenge in 12 years as chancellor. The free-market liberal FDP pulled out after four weeks of talks with Mrs Merkel's CDU/CSU bloc and the Greens. FDP leader Christian Lindner said there was "no basis of trust" between them. What happens next is unclear, but Mrs Merkel has met President Frank-Walter Steinmeier, who has the power to call elections. Mrs Merkel said she regretted the collapse, adding she would formally tell the German president that negotiations had failed. CDU deputy chairman Armin Laschet told journalists that Mrs Merkel had held a conference call on Monday morning with the party leadership and had retained its support. Mrs Merkel's bloc won September's poll, but many voters deserted the mainstream parties. "As chancellor, I will do everything to ensure that this country is well managed in the difficult weeks to come," she said. Back to the ballot box?

The mainstream parties had massive losses. Back to the ballot box ? -> return to sender !

And now it's Charlie Rose...
US talk show host Charlie Rose has been suspended by several television networks following allegations of sexual harassment.
Eight women accused the veteran TV interviewer of inappropriate behaviour in a report by the Washington Post. "These allegations are extremely disturbing and we take them very seriously," CBS News said. PBS and Bloomberg have also suspended him. Mr Rose has apologised, but said not all the allegations were accurate. They span from the 1990s to 2011 and include groping, lewd telephone calls and unwanted advances. Two women who worked for Mr Rose said he walked naked in front of them, and another said she was groped by him at a party.

Are you talking about today's UK Government budget? If so, the answer is simple. It will be nothing more than moving funds around from one place to another - as it nearly always is. Take from Peter to pay Paul and vice versa. No scope for anything significant at the moment.
This budget will be about as exciting to catch up on as a whole evening's, tedious BBC News reporting from Zimbabwe. |

And now the unemployed who make a first claim of 'Universal Credit' will only have to wait 5 weeks instead of 6 weeks before their first payment.
Even though the original waiting time was 4 weeks, and apparently some are waiting upto 8 weeks.
