I have it on good authority that before the match we will be observing a minutes silence to remember those Russian music fans killed in Moscow by Islamic terrorists last week. It’s a measure of the solidarity between our countries that despite our obvious current political differences we can...

I am not sure there is as much pearl clutching about the flag as the media project, broadly speaking this “dynamic” of changing stuff in the interests of a fresh new vision etc. is not new, it’s why we have Anne Boleyn played by a black actress, or women commentators/pundits on men’s sport...

No you need to try harder. If you checked your bag in at Gatwick in late 80s early 90s you sailed through to airside with your ticket and passport. That was it, no x ray machines or taking off your belts, watched and shoes. I remember the process very well, because by the early 90s stuff...

Yeah, I remember that, it was done due to violence by football fans, an they took place no where else. No security checks are de reiguer everywhere and at events with no history of violence. Unless events like Ariadne Grande concerts have been beset by unreported violence from prepubescent...

The road to hell is paved with good intentions, and for U.K. institutions the indulging of ANY religion in an increasingly multi faith country is going to create problems. Notwithstanding the legitimate complaints by traditionalists with British institutions embracing the growing influence of...

Well, directly we have intrusive security checks now in places we never used to? Indirectly, I don’t recall voting for a system that supported polygamy...

Who knows, as this episode we are commenting on demonstrates, we are already well on the wedge journey aren't we? In less than 100 years, despite increasing secularisation in the U.K. a new religion has arrived, put down roots and continues to be indulged by the powers that be. With a growing...

I agree, the appeasers on here and elsewhere have their heads in the sand, this message at Kings X is classic thin end of the wedge stuff. Where’s the atheist messages? A mere 15 years ago the Humanist Society launched a campaign in London expressing the sentiment that there is no God………...

Good old public subsidies eh, if only we could get back into the EU with the “mutha” of all public subsidies………..the common agricultural policy (CAP). The largest component in the EU budget of billions and a process where EU consumers pay tax to landowners. You say no problem with that...

The trust is better than fiction, I have just finished Cinderella Boys by Leo Mckinstry, which was a great read full of memoirs and archives re Coastal Command, which lead the air assault against the Uboats amongst other duties. Some incredible stories from incredibly brave men...

Jeez, additional printing on labels no one reads is hardly a knock out blow is it, as this article indicates only 1 in 5 care. Desperate. Meanwhile in the City……… https://www.politico.eu/article/france-helped-britain-keep-euro-clearing-london-brexit/ Great news given the gloomsters and doom...

What type of person(s) is in the echo chamber on how the term “mother” and “woman” is being dealt with these days in the U.K. by medical people, no less? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-sussex-56007728...

A shame, good memories from there in the bad days, however sadly the locals already have a fair bit on their plate to deal with……… https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-68300484 I’m sure their new local MP will have a laser focus on these critical local issues………...

You’re right it was a thoroughly positive exchange, and one which helped Gordon and the Labour Party demonstrate their empathy with the British working class struggling to understand why they were now sharing their lives with foreign people. A landslide electoral victory followed…….

This Poland you speak of with its thriving economy is succeeding despite being a 98% ethnic Polish and overwhelmingly Christian country isn’t it? The benefits of importing millions of low paid unskilled immigrants, multiculturalism and diversity haven’t impeded its growth have they, which is...
