Restaurant Review; Red Hot World Buffet Liverpool

Went on a day visit to Liverpool yesterday with the girlfriend and some mates and on very strong recommendation gave Red Hot in the fabulous Liverpool One a try.

For £12.99 you get an international all-you-can eat buffet including chinese, cajun, indian, italian, japanese, english, thai and mexican cuisine.

We had booked ahead for 7pm and were greeted by a friendly host who took us straight to our very nicely prepared table for 5. We ordered our drinks which were swiftly delivered (drinks are not included in the price) and then head off to the buffet.

A Fairer Society, NOT!!!

This slogan makes me cringe and react with fury everytime I hear it, Labour banging on about ‘fairness’. They have shown in the last 13 years they know nothing about fairness. Hearing Labour bang on about aspiration makes me cringe evenmore, socialism opposes hard work and ambition.

A fine example of Labour’s campaign against fairness is this ridiculous culture of ‘positive’ discrimination. As far as I am concerned there is no such thing discrimination is discrimination.

Clamping extortion to be capped

Apparently there is a war on Blackpool’s clampers today as  a proposed amendment to the Crime and Security Bill was highlighted. Release fees are to be capped and new routes for challenging fines are to be opened.

I’m not sure why Blackpool has been highlighted by the Gasjet given that this bill applies everywhere, but like anyone I am in favour of its implementation.

The Palace Nightclub Reopens (sort of)

Apologies for the misleading headline, that was just a swipe at the sensationalist journalism of the Gazette. But as announced in Friday’s Gazette there is a very interesting plan for the former Palace nightclub.

I feel this is just the sort of establishment that Blackpool so desperately needs, it is just the sort of place I have been longing for in this area and it definitely somewhere I would use.

TV Debates Bring it On

The proposed upcoming TV debates between the 3 leaders; Brown, Cameron and Clegg have just become even more interesting. For one thing I am very glad to see they are all being held outside London, a point brilliantly put by Carol Vorderman on Question Time.

But the most interesting thing is that there is a strict set of rules in place for the 3 leaders and audience. The audience is being selected from voters of parties, floating voters and non-voters. The audience have been told no heckling or jeering.

PCSO, Camera, Action (under section 44 of the Terrorism Act)

Have a look at this, it’ll get your blood boiling at the fucking disgrace of a police force we’ve got in the UK.

It’s a video made by art student Simona Bonomo of some buildings in London. She was then apprehended by a gum-chewing PCSO who tried to label her as a terrorist because she didn’t give what he deemed to be a valid reason for filming some buildings. He was determined to disbelieve anything she said and eventually booked her for cycling the wrong way down a road.

Modern day mystery

Here’s one for you to think about over the weekend.

Why are so many furniture shops named with three letter acronyms? We’ve got DFS, CSL, SCS and I spotted a HFS on Talbot Road just now.

Answers on a postcard..
