There will not be a hotel anywhere that hasn't had rooms used for extra marital nooky
Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

Astonishing insight, though for starters, Evans isn't married. But since the identity of the particular hotel is totally irrelevant ... so what? Nobody is criticising the hotel for renting out a room. It's sort of what hotels do.

Back on topic, it is today all over the media that Mark Pritchard MP was arrested following an allegation of rape. Or should I say, the Met wrote to the speaker telling him that they had arrested an MP, and they told the press that "a 48-year-old man had been arrested following an allegation of rape in central London." Mark Pritchard is 48. So the world now knows it was him.
If you read more, it turns out he voluntarily attended a police station (where he was arrested) and was released on police bail, having not been charged with anything.
Yet on BBC and the rest it is being trumpeted in so many words that Pritchard has been arrested on suspicion of rape.
I have a huge problem with this. If he turns out to be a rapist, or even if he is charged and tried, then report it. But let's say he (or any other man finding themselves in that position) was in fact 100% innocent - how is it right that an innocent man should be put in the position that he finds himself today?

The one that banned the two gay guys and got persecuted because of it - they wouldn't put up with extra-marital nooky, they'd probably ask for marriage certificates and everything, and tough luck if it wasn't a church wedding too.
I bet they probably sat at the end of the bed praying.

Seconded.
There are even questions as to if the arrest of someone who attends a police station voluntarily is legal. Clearly, this has been done as there are certain things they can do when someone is in arrest that they can't do if someone is not in arrest, such as compel them to give samples etc...

For some reason his girlfriend hasn't dumped him, but while he may rightly be cleared of being a rapist, he won't be cleared of behaving like a scumbag.
Absolutely, and he's lucky he has such a loyal girlfriend who's willing to give him another chance. Many would, quite understandably, have told to him where to go.
Big difference between being a scumbag and a rapist though.

Aye, and a girlfriend's daddy who happens to be a multi-millionaire AND willing to bankroll the campaign to clear Evans' name.

]Indeed there is, as we all know, if varying degrees of scumbags were disqualified from either soccer or indeed rugby league, the game would be much the poorer.

It must be marvellous preaching from your pulpit of righteousness!! In doing so you castigate a huge chunk of society - oh the crassness of your attitude.
