It's easier for an unconscious person to breathe that way, and it stops them choking on their own vomit, etc. Nothing to do with regaining consciousness as such.

So, presuming the quote is accurate, that's Mr Kazi's mistake then, not The Mail's.

This article is such a mess in so many ways.

Quote:

Now, after £9,000 bariatric surgery to reduce the size of her stomach, carried out on the NHS, Michelle, is a healthy 12st and is finally able to enjoy a decent night’s sleep, thanks to the fact that her dramatic weight loss has helped prevent the collapse of the upper airways that causes the breathing stoppages.

'You're a f****** liar', Boris tells Ken in furious on-air spat over who avoids paying most tax (and the row got even more heated after they left the studio)

Did Boris really swear on the radio? I thought all the swearing took place in the lift?

Cat survives FIVE WEEKS trapped in summerhouse by licking condensation from windowsRead more:
Of course nobody knows for certain how the cat survived. The Mail have taken their headline from this guess by the owner.

Quote:

'I would imagine she maybe licked condensation off the windows.'

Finally, I know it's not a kitten, but it is a rather bonnie cat which looks quite like mine.

The judge also ordered him to pay court costs of £2850. Surprisingly there are no comments, I guess they're all voting to bring back the cane (77% and counting).

Yesterday

Today

If I were the parents, I would be really pissed off at the headline speculation yesterday about drugs. No smoke without fire and all that !

I don't know where the drugs came into it. I've read every story in the local paper, and not once does it mention drugs

Perhaps someone smoked one joint in a nearby tent.

That's not supposed to be funny by the way. Nothing funny about smearing a couple whose child has just died. The DM makes me feel sick sometimes.

I can completely understand why the only people who were with a six year old when she dies would be arrested, as a precaution. The fact that they were, and then released when a postmortem showed no suspicious circumstances seems fine to me. But introducing speculation that has no basis like that is not acceptable.

This.

Why do they do it? Does it really bring in that much revenue?

I hope someone close to the parents has noticed this.

A sensitive and tasteful post. Presumably to try to get a reaction by simply being foul. Again.
Let's not feed the troll, eh?
