I f**king hate the British press this is a direct consequence of the hammer in from the press as well as the crown prosecution service. Sadly if you’re in the public eye it’s all fair game.

So many of today's young'uns seem to spend their lives constantly worrying about what other people think about them and seeking some sort of "fame". Why I have absolutely no idea but I do know it can seriously fu*ck their head up.

So many of today's young'uns seem to spend their lives constantly worrying about what other people think about them and seeking some sort of "fame". Why I have absolutely no idea but I do know it can seriously fu*ck their head up. Social media and the net, thats why mate...when our generation had difficulties at school or elsewhere, when we came home and shut the door into our family unit, the abuse ended and we (generally) got support. For todays youngsters, getting home can be where it all starts ,tablets and smartphones, younger parents nowadays are affixed with their phones as their kids (go into any restaurant and they'll be whole families all on their phones, not talking or interacting)....even these games such as "Minecraft" and "Call of Duty" have online chat areas, bullying (and grooming...) goes on in these games as well. Feel very sad for her and her family, as I understand it, her fella called the police, was found covered in blood, she was arrested and charged, once the CPS have there hands on a case, you cant withdraw it, no matter if your Caroline Flack or Chris Smith.. |

But was it in the public interest ? We both know what CPS are like, and i am surmising why they charged with DV/DA being a hot potato coupled with her 'fame' a hostile witness/complainant means it was always going to fail coupled with there general ineptitude. A decent defence brief would rip this to pieces.
Then you have the 'great' british press for all intents and purposes hanging her out to dry, and it being trial by the press. The sun had a horrendous 'cartoon' on valentines day online apparently that was a valentines card from her saying I'm going to lamp you.
Its a tragic situation that should never have got here and there is so much worse going on even in the UK that never reaches the press and that the CPS are reluctant to charge.

All very sad. She was probably very depressed and saw no other way out.

Such a waste of life and a lifetime of guilt for her partner as he will blame himself, but you can't smash a lampshade over someone's head and think that is normal behaviour
She shouldn't have perished for this though

It is sad and unfortunately she is the only one that will know why it happened and how she felt , in that fame game they are in a bubble they don’t know
what real people think only what the media and keyboard warriors say if you are a person that cares what people think it will destroy you , I’m worried for my kids with this social network shit me personally it should be for over 18/21 and a passport type of security having a policeman doctor verified your age as kids just are being hounded and losing their lives for no reason , bike forums are the only thing I’m on .

Why because this is in the general chat area and some of us are showing an element of compassion towards another human being, if this was the sun we would no doubt be sensationalising it, sorry guess we need to concentrate just on bikes like real men do.

We had a much milder winter than expected an this weekend I saw loads of plants and shrubs I should cut back as they are starting to show new growth. As said before general chat section, so on topic even if a little of thread topic. Didn’t have time as I was mocking up the LC hybrid LOL. Jon |
