Hockey was ace though. Final tonight is it? 9pm?

Until the spurious "robbed at gunpoint" story broke, I neither knew nor cared anything about US swimmer Ryan Lochte. But the more I read about him, the more I'm convinced that he is so far up his own orifice that what he thought was a shooter looming before his eyes was in fact an ultra extension of himself.

This guy makes Zlatan look like modesty personified.

Surely even Farage would know better. You'd think?

Publicity whore - loves it.

The point and objective otherwise baffles me.

I saw two homeless blokes fighting outside the Arndale centre yesterday. Proper going for it and a fair few decent punches connected. It wasn't pretty and seemed quite desperate and depressing. Then saw a lad in his early 20s filming it on his phone with a sly smile on his face. I called him a cunt and told him to put his phone away. What's wrong with people?

I did think that. One of them had the 'look'. You can just tell can't you? He was the one coming out on top. Big proportion of ex-services on the street isn't there? PTSD or just institutionalised and perhaps a bit vulnerable before they went in. The government will take them in no probs then leave them to rot when they've done with them.Must be stressful enough being homeless without getting caught up in that and cunts filming you for entertainment. Made me feel sick.

Fucking awful but it's true. You would have thought that ex-servicemen could be front of the queue for coppering, prison guarding, firemanning, even teaching (nowhere near enough fellas involved) etc. I know they get a pot to retrain but it whiffs a bit of blood money and hand washing really.

I'm not sure where this perception of the problems faced by ex-servicemen comes from. As far as I'm aware, they're not disproportionately represented in relation to the overall number of homeless. We also seem to harbour a belief that there's widespread suffering from PTSD and other mental illnesses, with loads of them wandering around like ticking time-bombs and again, I'm not sure there's reliable evidence to back this up.

I can't provide any facts other than what I've seen in the media and conversations with close friends who are ex-forces (where I grew up most young lads went into the army or the nick)In my opinion, one is too many

I can think of quite a few folk "wandering around like ticking time-bombs" who have never been anywhere near the Armed Forces.

Forces was a big option our way. Loads of mates from school signed up.

I can't open your link as I'm working on an old browser so I'll take a look later but to claim 1 in 4 homeless people are veterans is beyond belief. Those kinds of figures are not supported by organisations such as the British Legion. There's little evidence to suggest that Army life or institutionalisation is a cause of homelessness.To be clear, I'm not having a pop at veterans, I'm just questioning this perception that we have that seems to paint them as being incapable of leading sucessful lives on civvy street.

Linked fucked up anyway. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1412519/Ex-servicemen-make-up-quarter-of-the-homeless.htmlArticle:One in four homeless people is a former member of the Armed Forces, according to figures from Shelter and the Government's social exclusion unit.Research published in the run-up to Remembrance Sunday said thousands were living rough or in sheltered homes because they could not adjust to independent living or had problems triggered by their war experiences.Many had served in the Falklands, Kosovo, Bosnia, the Gulf, Northern Ireland and even the Second World War but lived on handouts in squats and hostels.Adam Ingram, minister for the Armed Forces, said the Government saw resettlement of all service leavers as a "very important part of the transitional process back to civilian life". He added: "We recognise that some of our ex-service personnel may require extra help."But some politicians claim that councils give ex-prisoners higher priority on housing lists than former military personnel.

I'm not suggesting this OX25. Thankfully most of my mates have great lives post the forces be it on the rigs (a common one) to sparkies/telco through to Violence Advisor (that is helping women speak out about violence in the home)What is a fact is that those that saw service will mostly have seen and been through horrors I wouldn't want t imagine - a lot of these people struggle to come to terms with life after the forces whether by a perceived lack of belonging or simply the torture of PTSDI think we're in agreement at a base level.....?
