    Man accused of driving without licence, appears in court whilst driving!

    His driving license was suspended for a child support violation. I do hope his ability to pay, and make up for not paying child support wasn't dependent on being able to drive. Thanks for the additional info.

    'Paid time off'. Are they seriously still in a job? They tortured and threatened and lied to a suspect until he foreseeably confessed and attempted suicide. Charges of attempted murder should be considered.

    UK election called for July 4th.

    Not only did he announce the election in torrential rain, but he managed to do it to the accompanying sound of a protester playing at full volume 'Things can only get better ' the theme tune to Labours last landslide win over the Tories

    UK election called for July 4th.

    Essentially if a party cannot command a majority, and no other party is able to, then another election is inevitable.

    With notice, 6 weeks. And if the monarch agrees yep.

    UK election called for July 4th.

    Because in the UK it is up to the Prime Minister when an election is held, though an election must be held within 5 years of the previous one. 5 years is the maximum term. So for the ruling party being able to declare an election at a time of their choosing is one big advantage.
