  monkeyshine nutworks — Authority: 412
  Remember the post TRAI should be renamed ITIAT, where I had highlighted the stupid, short-sighted moves of the Telecom Ministry/Department/Regulator to restrict 100 SMS per day per SIM card?

• Why Somalians?

  
  Not a sheep — Authority: 119
  One of the noticeable features of immigration under the last labour government was the appearance of Somali men, women and children all over London.

  Ive made my stance on copyright infringement and "piracy" clear in the past. A person who creates art and entertainment has rights to that created work.

Instead, I’ll just tell you this: if you ...
