Foreign Secretary David Miliband insisted that the Government would not get involved in any ransom payments to secure the release of a British couple kidnapped by pirates in the Indian Ocean. Mr Miliband said he could not stop private individuals from pursuing the possibility of a ransom deal, but that the Government had always made it clear that making concessions to hostage-takers was not in Britain's interests. His comments came days after Paul and Rachel Chandler issued a desperate plea for help, revealing that they had been split up by their captors and feared they could be killed within days. The couple, from Tunbridge Wells, Kent, were taken hostage after heading from the Seychelles towards Tanzania in their yacht Lynn Rival on October 23 last year.

I am sorry but like 1000s of others I couldn't care less about them 2 fools, they took it on to go for an adventure in a dangerous area, they had already read about Pirates in the area taking ships and people, so let the idiots be killed, no tears here will be shed.

Sorry you are right about those two silly people, for doing what they did I cant see why better people should risk lives to help them, and like millions of others I would be very upset if Labour paid our hard earned tax money over to Pirates to get silly sods off from being killed. Get shut of them is all I can say, and I hope they leave the dead waste over there and not bring it back at tax payers expense either.

Yes that really is best to kill them, but maybe lets just hope it is done quickly so they feel no pain, maybe just a roast meal laced with my wifes food mixed in will help them on the way, if that wont kill them nothing will. Don
