    I think he's probably not even in England any more, he's probably in Europe somewhere by now.

    I think he's in the USA. The police said something about a threat to the wider public.
    Here I go again on my own....

    And if it was just the 2 ordinary folk who'd been killed they wouldn't be doing such a big search IMO.
    They're only going big because one of their own got shot.
    You don't see big searches like this when a young hoodie gets shot in London.....

    It's not like there's a recent precedent. Some guy with a gun. In rural Northern England. That didn't end well.

    I know one shouldn't judge on appearance and she's probably done the last 48 hours without a break, but the Temp C.C. really should do something about her hair before appearing on the 10pm news.

    Horrendous hair

    On a different note does anybody think it's weird that he's now supposed to be targetting the general public when before he only seemed to have a grudge against the police and authorities?
    Trying the old kidology with the public. Probably hoping he calls 999 again in order to say I didn't say I would hurt the public.............swoop.


    On another note I heard that for NP it is dress down day for the forseeable

    Daily Mail reckons the SAS and RAF are after him now.

    Get the Navy in to launch a few Tomahawk cruise missiles and I reckon we have a Tom Clancy novel.

    Best quote so far from Sky New... "he could hear police negotiators talking to the suspect and addressing him as "Raoul". Now they aren't going to call him Derek are they!! :D

    I can't believe Gazza turned up... Everyone knows all England players are rubbish in a shootout situation.

    Hopefully it's all over now but the police are going to look pretty stupid if he's been literally under their feet the whole time.

    Personally, I preferred the guy on the BBC: "So, give what you can see and the pictures and descriptions of Raoul Moat recently, do you think it is definitely him?"...."No"

  • Sky were so pathetic covering this incident. They even asked if their helicopter could fly above the area to 'help'.

    Sky were so pathetic that they even asked a policeman if he were to shoot Raul how he would feel.

    Sky were so desperately pathetic that they ran a story about how the police did not know that Raul was out of the country.

    Sky are so pathetic. Pathetic.
