UK Gov't Wants Facebook To Feature Child Safety Button

judgecorp writes "Harriet Harman, the deputy leader of the Labour Party, has said that UK government ministers are 'taking action' to get Facebook to add a British child protection button (called CEOP) to its site. The move comes after the UK's Daily Mail withdrew allegations that teenagers on Facebook are continually pestered — though Facebook is still considering suing the paper. The campaign apparently ignores Facebook's assertion that it already has better child protection in place and the CEOP button would be limited to the UK."

    And Owebama can suck mine!

    from an ft.com article today:

    "During the downturn many companies, including FedEx, cut their capital expenditures in response to falling demand, moves that in turn intensified the drop-off in economic activity. The levels have yet to recover.

    Boosting investment spending was crucial to catalysing a sustainable recovery, Mr Smith said, because it created jobs. When people were worried about unemployment, they tended to spend less, undercutting a driver of the economy."

    Pull your head out of your ass, Owebama. People don't give a shit about your health care take-over socialist wet dream holy grail if they've been looking for a job for 9-12 months. Bills get paid in this order: food, housing, energy, communications, THEN insurance. Maybe if you wouldn't be so fucking myopic, your poll numbers wouldn't be in the shitter.

    Fantastic how a link to some random blog gets 5 points for insightful, but a well thought out reply doesn't.
