I have just returned from a short business trip to Dubai for the first time and its breathtaking. The architecture is outstanding and its a city built for the future.
Its reeking of lucre and wealth made on the back of outlandish deals. I would expect its a major money laundering site in the world as there is a huge amount of properties being built for both commercial and residential purposes. But its clean ( apart from the dust from the building) and very safe.
There is a huge supply of prostitutes and alcohol is allowed but NOT drugs! An english DJ went there for a one night stint and had forgotten a small bit of hash from the previous night when he was in Majorca and is now the guest of the Dubai Jail for 4 years.
And if its a stronger drug.....25 years. Straight in and nothing can change it. BUT petrol is only .90p a gallon! its almost an orgasm just saying...fill the tank up please ! lol.
The sea is great and an enormous amount of shopping malls which stock mostly very expensive stuff!
I will be doing a full tourist and business blog on Dubai on my rawtravel.blog.co.uk site soon.

However when I returned to my flat in England....the very first night at 3am I heard a bang just outside my bedroom window to see 2 brainless drunk yobs jumping on the roof of my car and then runnng away laughing. What is wrong with the UK that we produce such a huge amount of inbred morons that are completely amoral ? If that had happened in Dubai, the police would have carted them off for quite a few years. And there a jail IS a jail, not a 2 star equivalent hotel as in the UK.

I know the Labour Government is trying to destroy UK limited in order to make it a hard job for Cameron to take over as there is no way that these corrupt thieves will be voted in again but.....if the rise of the teenage thugs is not halted immediately it will also effect them as backbenchers too!
Throw these useless brainless intimidating teen and early twenties bastards into the front line of the army in Iraq and if they get killed..who cares.

Perhaps we should adopt some of the laws in Islamic countries but short of beheading, stone throwing and chopping off hands of thieves as in Saudi Arabia.

Conscription into the army for 3 years should be adopted immediately for school leavers as Schools and parents are now too scared to discipline their own,thanks to the cowardly disillusioned do-gooders we have been saddled with.
