Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Childhood: 2 of 169

At 7am every week morn She begins to paint her face forlorn Beautiful smile and deep blue eyes But no one can see that she's crying inside She hurries to school in her favorite jeans Hoping to fit in and hoping to please She bobs her head throughout maths class But all she wants is to get out fast Her heart skips a beat when...
Entertainment > Celebrity Gossip & News Will there be a Spice Girls reunion?: 1 of 5

Firstly, before I make my point about the possible reunion of the Spice Girls, I would like to ask, who are these people who write against the reunion?! Did you not grow up through the times when the Spice Girls brought fashon away from Kyle Minogues 80's style stonewashed denim, and added some flair? You evidently weren't a...
Society & Lifestyle > Immigration Issues How immigration has affected the UK: 4 of 8

I have mulled over these articles about immigration in the UK and while some have very interesting and plausible facts I fear that some opinions are little more than that.....opinions. My partner came here 9 years ago after fleeing from an Eastern country. Before I tell you the reason why please allow me to give you an insig...
Politics, News & Issues > War & Peace Should the US pull out its troops regardless of whether Iraq is ready to defend its people?: 79 of 101

Have you ever heard of the boy who cried wolf? When he really did need someone, his voice was not heard.

First there is my mum, small, plump, rosy cheeks....sound lovely? WRONG! She is a purple fire breathing dragon, who you avoid in a morning, and when it's that time of th...
Politics, News & Issues > Political & Economic Theory America is in a privacy crisis: 12 of 12

There are many issues surrounding privacy, CCTV being one of them. Being born and raised in the United Kingdom, and until recently, never in my life, seeing such monstrosities as those of the London bombings, many thoughts swim in my mind about our safety and well being. It is true, that Adam and Eve did not have national I....
Politics, News & Issues > US Leaders Critique of UK identity cards: 5 of 5

I am writing this in response to the article I just read, written by Paul Lines, referring to the possibility of each citizen having their fingerprints, along with medical records and other things on a database. While I agree that Mr Lines has a valid and plausible point of view, I have to wonder whether he has considered fa...
Politics, News & Issues > Politics in Europe Will immigration in 21st century help or hurt ecomonies of G-20 countries?: 2 of 2

Many people believe that immigration hinders economies. While it is true that immigration is a large concern for many countries, especially Britain, with the risk of terrorism always the height of conversation. Despite this I do wonder, how many people have an Asian doctor or a dental nurse from the Philipines? How many peop...
