Day Bongo the Dog went Bonkers...

A dangerous Staffordshire bull terrier called Bongo is to be destroyed after it bit a woman in Lincoln.

The Lincolnshire Echo reports that during an argument, Bongo's owner kicked his neighbour's dog.

Bongo didn't need any further encouragement to attack the woman, clamping his teeth painfully on her leg and refusing to let go.

The man was also in court to be sentenced for charges arising from two other incidents.

Afyer buying beer at a local shop, he demanded butter but when told didn't have enough money he became aggressive, pushed the shopkeeper and shouted racial abuse.

On a later date, he threatened to smash up the shop unless he was given cigarettes.

He was sentenced to a total of 20 weeks in prison suspended for 18 months and ordered to pay £700 compensation.

The judge also ordered that Bongo be destroyed and banned the man from owning a dog for 18 months.

THE PRIME MINISTER WAS SECRETLY INTERVIEWED BY DETECTIVES FROM THE YARD LAST FRIDAY ON TOP OF THE DEBACLE FROM FIVE WEEKS AGO.

He was re-elected just 18 months ago and is the first Prime Minister to indicate that he will not stand for another term, unlike Thatcher who promised to go on and on and had to be removed with a crowbar.

I understand the PM has been interviewed twice by police as a witness in a year-long enquiry following a complaint from another political party. As far as I am aware, he has not been interviewed as a suspect, in any alleged wrong-doing.

I'd prefer to let the police complete their investigations and await the outcome, rather than join the feeding frenzy.

Well if the Sunday press is anything to go by he could be interviewed under caution this week.

Why doesn't he just cut his losses and go now!
