To whet your appetite, here is a taste of some of the hot topics under discussion this week: o On news of more train fare increases: "Public transport is lousy and very expensive. Petrol price increases are just another tax on the hard-working percentage of our population," says Totally_Anonymous.

o Has Christmas come too early? "Any mention of Christmas before December 10 should be punishable by death," opines Dynamite Eddie.

o On Hinkley Point C: "Say yes to wind and no to nuclear. I thought the Government had backed the barrage plan so why do we need another nuclear blot on thelandscape?" asks BlackKnight_UK.
