cockle-pickers in Morecambe Bay. The screening is in support of a proposed private member's bill

Okay, is this movie about the massacre at Haditha or is it a Clinton politcal history

The research for Haditha has presented different challenges. With a court case pending in the US, much of the material might be legally sensitive - although extensive details of a US military inquiry are in the public domain, having appeared in a series of Washington Post articles.

This makes no sense whatsoever that any Marines involved would be permitted to talk to the media. I wonder if John Edwards will be available if the families decide to sue.

LOL! That’s the other movie he is producing, not Haditha. Very funny.

LOL! This article was crazily written. Everybody knows the cockle-pickers aren’t in Morecambe Bay. They’re screening for the private member in Morehead City, for pete’s sake!

The problem they will take the rest of us with them,if it wasn't for that I would let these people live under the government they so richly deserve.

If you can pull yourself away from your cockle-picking.

Interesting technique. Do you use a stick to pick your cockles?

From what I understand- plump, shiny cockles are picked by hand, graded according to size, and transported by tractor..
