Eamonn is tremendous, as is most of those involved in reporting the scandal from the BBC through to the Belfast Telegraph. Obviously I may have biased opinion, but this came from a few people I have been speaking to and they seem to agree.
Just how useless is Ken Reid.

Re: Airport "security"
In the past 3 years, I've never been asked for ID at the City Airport... Online Check-in, they just look at the printout and that's it.
Quite disturbing. Even the people at the gate don't check!

Re: News website publishing systems
BBC News uses a custom built and archaic publishing system, the Guardian is also custom designed also I think, but TimesOnline and Sky News use WEBSIDESTORY
BBC News uses a thing called 'Content Production System' funnily enough, CPS for short. Whilst it may be old, it's been custom developed ...

Re: Please place the item on the belt
The machine gets confused if you buy multiple items i.e. greater than three.
More often than not, it complains you haven't put it on the belt and then when you put the one you've just scanned down, it seems to correct itself.
The staff just don't seem that bothered, and just throw the things down ...

Re: Indian Call centres
Has anyone had it when your phone rings, you answer it, and their reaction on the phone is as if you rung them?
That's because their phone rings too, thanks to the joy of automated dialling.
Yep but they know they're ringing you as they work in outbound calls, when I answered my phone it was a ...

It's amusing we have the opposite here - an indian company has set up a call centre in Belfast employing people to answer the phones to Indian consumers.... I wonder if they hate ours as ...

It's a difficult one, so most would be going on the side of caution and not reporting it at all. However as you say, if you can't mention the fact it was the same guy then it's not really another story.Jovis wrote:But if they didn't mention the geezer shooting Cameron, there would be no cannabis story.

Under normal circumstances, it would be a case for jigsaw identification where people can put the pieces together to find out who the person is.
