    Death of common sense

    Um...did a quick search, and there doesn't appear to be a thread on this.

    I would be interested to see people's comments on whether they think we should be spending humongous amounts of tax-payers money on investigations and enquiries into the death of Diana Princess of Wales.

    For avoidance of doubt I consider that her death was an accident, and that those people who find it difficult to accept that celebrities can have a grubby, inconvenient and just damn ordinary aspect to their lives should deal with it and stop bleating (expensively) about conspiracies.

    So there.

    Over to you

    Honestly, even if there was a huge conspiracy, I don't really care.

    So. Drop the whole thing, say I. Spend the money on promoting dance in the UK.

    Back to you

    Do you know anyone who believes Diana was killed by a conspiracy?

    Yes. I can think of two who believe that - one of whom has met the Queen, and firmly believes that she ordered the killing (the grounds for believing that were something along the lines of: "she's a complete b*tch" - I decided not to enquire further**)...

    There's some funny people around.

    I am totally bored, by the whole thing! I feel for her immediate family though, whatever their attitude to it. Imagine seeing this being dragged up again and again and again..............

    Also very irritated by press coverage of the Tony Blair will he/won't he scenario..........

    Oh you bunch of cynics - theres plenty mileage in Diana yet, Ive only just finished watching the TV programme* about the curse of her dresses and am looking forward to the hairstyle one, the 6 steps removed from Diana one, the "Diana the New Conspiracy" one, the "Diane - a life" special...the.........zzzzzzzzz





    * not really, I'd rather cut the grass in Hyde Park with Nail scissors.

    I believe there are unanswered questions concerning Diana's death, but I don't think an inquiry is going to supply answers.

    Well, I personally know for a fact that she was offed by the Illuminati, as part of the wars between the Nazi and Freemason axis and the Catholic Church.

    Because She Knew Too Much.

    (I'll rep the first person to identify that reference)

    Seriously, what questions do you think are unanswered?

    Bah. I think I'm getting my Dan Brown novels confused. Which, let's face it, is very easily done. Angels and Demons?
