That's just one film clip lir. Stick with it and see whether you like it. I like Adam Boulton, I think he's a good political commentator and I like his anchoring of a workmanlike coverage.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

Manchester, Hull, Hackney also reporting problems with people being turned away.
Rioting disgruntled would-be voters - they're blocking ballot boxes from reaching the count in Sheffield.
Suggestions of some sort of re-election if people were queueing before 10, didn't get to vote and the majority is down to a few hundred!0 -

But if people were really intent on making their vote, then surely they should have made sure they left more than an hour or even less before the polling stations closed or arranged for a proxy/postal vote if they knew they were going to struggle.
It's not like the polls are only open for a couple of hours.....We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

Just for you lir, I turned over and tried the beeb. I do like Paxo, but the set looks like a nightclub I once went to in the West Midlands and I need my sunglasses to watch it. Back to Sky for me I'm afraid...Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?
