- Welcome to RCR UK, Blogging Britain - 2007-03-24 00:00:00 We have started a Blog here so that we can hear the views of people living in Britain
, and how the different cultures of people reflect on society.
We would like to Blog peoples views on crime in their areas of the UK.
I my self live in "Lancashire" and find that the people who live here are frightned of going out on a night time because of how bad the crime is here and in some cases causing people to be "house bound". Maybe you live in an area of the UK which you would like to give your view on, and how bad crime affects your lives.
Crime is supposedly decreasing, and more policing is supposed to be on the street. Please give your views on how the police are helping in your areas of the UK, and if you think they are doing there job properly, maybe you have some ideas of how policing can better itself.
Post your comments today, and lets try to make a difference.
Hopefully attract the attention of our members of parliament, and hope for the best really.

UK Car + Home Insurance, should we have to be legally robbed ? 2007-03-02 01:10:22 United Kingdom Company based Insurance - Can we get around being robbed
legally each year ?
Who likes paying for insurance? Nobody...
Here is something for you to think about...
Everyone who owns a car has to pay insurance to drive in the UK.
Why do we have to pay for insurance with a company?
To argue this case, read the following:
If you think that you can save enough money to cover your insurance for a year, then why give it to an insurance company?
If you can somehow prove every month that you have a specific amount of cash, equal to an insurance policy available for you to withdraw at anytime to pay for damages etc.
Then why use a company?
Every year you have to pay the same amount of cash to cover your policies, right.
I.e. Car insurance, and Home insurance.
What happens to the cash each year if you have not claimed?
Well to my knowledge the company your policies are with, keep all the cash, and maybe pay a bit a tax on it to the government.
Why should you have to p Read more:Home Insurance
Should we pay for a TV Licence in the UK ? 2007-01-20 20:59:00 As we all know you have to pay for your TV licence in the United Kingdom.
Our view on this is as follows:
The BBC makes us all pay our TV licence and what for? Just because the service of the BBC is being broadcast over a frequency that all our TVs, and DAB`s receive as standard.
Also are the BBC going to charge the world a fee when they start broadcasting over the internet?
Who knows?
We all buy TV sets, but what says we don�t want to watch the BBC channels? Just because something is there we shouldn�t have to pay for it, its like petrol. We pay for it when we need it, yes, and don�t pay for it when we don�t want it.
Why shouldn�t the BBC make there channels pay-per-view.
This would abolish the licence, and mean we only have to pay for it when we need it and not because its there we have to pay for it. That�s like me saying "right everyone�s got to pay for my radio broadcast, because its there, and you don�t have any choice at all to a
What is D.N.A fingerprinting ? 2007-01-20 20:57:00 DNA fingerprinting is a way of identifying a specific individual, rather than simply identifying a species or some particular trait. It is also known as genetic fingerprinting or DNA profiling. As a technology, it has been around since at least 1985, when it was announced by its inventor, Sir Alec Jeffreys. DNA fingerprinting is currently used both for identifying paternity or maternity and for identifying criminals or victims.
There is discussion of using DNA fingerprinting as a sort of personal identifier as well, although the viability of this is debatable.The vast majority of a human�s DNA will match exactly that of any other human, making distinguishing between two people rather difficult. DNA fingerprinting uses a specific type of DNA sequence, known as a microsatellite, to make identification much easier. Microsatellites are short pieces of DNA which repeat many times in a given person�s DNA. In a given area, microsatellites tend to be highly variable, making them id
D.N.A - Do you think that your DNA should be kept on database? is it stored securely? 2007-01-20 19:49:00 At the moment the police in the United Kingdom are think
ing of adding everyone to their DNA database. Do you think that this is a good thing? or a bad thing?
We need your feedback to help this site grow !!!
I personally think its a totally bad thing as your DNA can be found almost anywhere you go, say for instance you scratched your head at a crime scene, and didn�t know it was a crime scene, the police would be on your back like a dog to a rabbit.....and most of all you will have to explain why your hair was found at that particular spot.
These little things could be enough to send you to prison for something that you haven�t done, so here is a chance to have your say.
Should we all walk around wrapped in Clingfilm........lol Read more:stored
Being a Student and Claiming Benefits. 2007-12-16 19:21:00 What would you do if you was claiming Housing Benefit and Incapacity Benefit and wanted to do a Full Time Degree, with the option of claiming loans which have to be paid back?
I would say don’t claim the loan and keep your housing benefit.
We have a big story on this coming soon.
The government do not have a rule for a Full-Time Student
claiming Incapacity Benefit and Housing Allowance, what they like to do it fine you and then remove your eligibility of claiming Housing benefit and give you no choice but to leave the course and re-claim the housing benefit.
What we are saying is that, once you become a student you are not eligible to claim housing benefit as you have the option of taking a loan out to pay for your accommodation.
If you receive Incapacity Benefit you are entitled to Housing benefit.
But,
If you are a Student claiming Incapacity and housing benefit and are trying to improve your life by doing well on a course to get yourself off the benefit system, you’ Read more:Benefits
