What's so special about her voice? Plenty of other kids with better voices not given the opportunity she was given. Wouldn't mind if she stuck to just that, but she felt we all wanted to hear her opinions about everything else, including stuff she clearly knows nothing about. Get off your soapbox love, no one is interested.

1/10


The 1 is for not mentioning clique or bullying.

If you throw hand grenades, expect them to be sometimes thrown back at you...

I was there yesterday and like some of you above, when Charlotte Church came on stage to give her speech, didn't expect much. I was pleasently suprised. She gave a terrific speech, that she'd written beforehand and clearly put a lot of thought into. It's very easy to be cynical and sneer, but how many of you above heard her speech yesterday?


Russell Brand is not the best speaker as we all know. To be honest I think he makes it up as he goes along, but his support does bring coverage of what is for many a serious cause. Austerity is hitting the poorest and most vulnerable people hard, especially people like the disabled. 250,000 people joined that march (a police estimate annonuced on the main stage). And let's remember that only 23.5% of the electorate voted for this miracle conservative majority. They don't represent 76.5% of the electorate at all, some of whom are celebrities and should be free to lend support without being ridiculed.

0/10


The zero is because you and some others keep up with this nonsense of ranking someone out of 10, It's become repetitive and it's getting predictably boring (ring any bells?). When it first started a solid 5 would have been in order, but it's tedious now, almost as tedious as me (apparently).

She was a child with a lot of talent, so obviously people hated her for that. She had an incredible voice, if you found her annoying you should have blamed the parents, not the little girl.


She was a very annoying chat show host / failed pop star, I'll give you that.

After the election she was called a champagne socialist when she went to a rally in Cardiff (I think), and she responded with a blog which I was really impressed with. And I don't like the "champagne socialist" term. It implys that if you have money you should lose all social conscience.

I don't care how posh someone is / sounds.


Posh.. ? She don't sound posh.. That was her TV voice..


I worked in Telecoms and I had my Telephone voice. I was told 'you sound real posh on the phone'

Well it does if I'm speaking professionally. Not so if I'm talking with friends. init.

It's not the issue of austerity being raised, that I or anyone else has an issue with. That is of course an important topic we should all be aware of and I applaud these people for at least raising it. But why is it we need 'z' list celebrities jumping on a bandwagon as the voice of such an important issue? Makes a mockery of the whole thing IMO.

    • Hi everyone, we are trying to finslise our decision for enrolling our son for 3+ from September and currently considering Dulwich Prep or Herne Hill. We like both and appreciate there is no right or wrong answer but what we like about HH is great focus on early years and also being coed. However if we can avoid the 7+ stress then prefer to do that. Dulwich Prep is closer but the difference is not significant. we know children are very active and busy in DP and they have great facilities, but unlike HH, we don’t know much about their focus on personal development and emotional intelligence, etc! Also not sure about long-term impact of being in boys only school. Difficult decision for us and we appreciate feedback from parents if you can share please.    thank you
    • Yeah that was their old policy. Their new policy is to force you to have a water meter and if you refuse they put you on a punitively high tariff which effectively forces you to have one. I was doing well with my policy of polite resistance which was to say yes fine I'll have one fitted but then not actually book an appointment or cancel the appointments they made. But then I was persuaded that it would be much cheaper anyway.
