"Idle gossip" NuLabspeak for "inconvenient or embarrassing facts"
NuLab that is now history, not sure what the new lot will call themselves

Yes.
When politicians are prepared to pontificate, campaign and legislate for issues of morality then their behaviour matters.

really? we have delayed getting married as we have moved house, then because my sisters wedding was this summer, I was hoping we would plan it for May next year but i have got exams, and I wouldnt want my studies disrupted by worrying about swags & sashes! I have intermittent exams for the next 2 years.... almost quarterly.....
we dont have half the commitments any frontline politician would have. If I was a frontline politician my work would come first.
But are you engaged? If he hasn't got the time, at least give the girl some real hope by putting a ring on her finger, Fiance is so much better than just being the girlfriend!

Its non of my business. I want to know if he can do a great job.. that's it and I feel embarrassed that his child is being subjected to this scrutiny.[/QUOTE]
That's precisely point, why didn't he make the time to go with his girlfriend to ensure this did not happen. The child will now, unfortunately, always be subject to this scrutiny.

Yes, weve been engaged since we met, we got engaged about 6 weeks after we met, been together 5 and a bit years.
I proposed to him - so no ring!
Besides, what do I want a ring for, waste of money :money: 
Its me thats constricted by time
:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind

I must say I have found some of the comments on this thread condescending and sexist, it could be his Shelagh that doesn't want to get hitched

It does matter to a certain extend. Did he really just not bother to register his son?? It doesn't take long so was it a time issue or did he not want to accept parental responsibility??
TBH I feel a bit uneasy about a person who can not make time for family no matter how busy!MF aim 10th December 2020 :j:eek:MFW 2012 no86 OP 0/2000

It could well be! Im one of these women who dont care either way, as long as Ive got a strong relationship with my fella I dont care for the legals or the ribbons and bows, love is all that matters.
