Cornichons are tiddlers, french style. Gherkins in the french are Grand Russe (ie eastern european style), or wallys in cockney (which I guess is where they first showed up here)
I'd say yes. The politicisation of news by our media & overseas is really concerning. The events of Thursday in Amsterdam for example. widely reported as a "pogrom" turns out to be nothing of the sort, but is fed to us as such. It's disturbing. I understand that even Biden has commented
Thank you for this mister sloth. Reading the BBC etc it would appear that these innocent victims of nazi hatred were just attending a match. The rescue flights etc are a pile of crap. Why is our media (and it looks like Dutch media too) so very biased?
