Is this article supposed to generate sympathy for 20-year-old Benjamin Miller, of Georgia?
If he and the 45,000 to 50,000 other people who attended this "Carnaval del Toro" wish to indulge in this barbaric and cruel activity, then they must accept that they run the risk of being injured. There seems to be no reports of any other attendees at this "fiesta, which includes afternoon bullfights and bull-running events" being gored or otherwise injured, which is a pity because a good goring or more is what they all richly deserve.
Any compassion which people may have should be directed towards the Bulls, who have no choice but to take part in this awful spectacle. The message to the "humans" involved is a simple one. You deserve it and so expect no sympathy from me.

However, amongst all the usual speculative delusion, there is one factor which causes concern to anyone who believes in the Labour Party, its principles and in he democratic process of the Labour movement. It is abundantly clear that elements within the Parliamentary Labour Party, are even now, planning another coup in the event that Jeremy Corbyn should emerge as winner in the current ballot. The failed coup of earlier this year, has now descended into a sham leadership election, because the conspirators still fail to accept the democratic decision of the Labour party membership and cling to

Plemont development or return to nature?

  http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-jersey-  A date has been set for a public inquiry into plans for Plemont Headland. This exceptional location must be sold to the National trust for Jersey, and returned to nature. Any other outcome involving development of the site, can only demonstrate the extent to which greed and self interest have become endemic in Jersey.
