    Welcoming refugees. Well done Brits!

    Your (rather revolting) sentence "Must be how Christian priests feel when knobbing kids at the same time as saying bless you my son" implies that Christian priests do what you say. If you wanted to imply a hypothesis you would have inserted a 'might' and an 'if'. Actually, I am not bothered and...

    Welcoming refugees. Well done Brits!

    Your sentence was constructed to imply fact, not hypothesis. But I'm pleased to learn that it was simply something you were imagining.

    Welcoming refugees. Well done Brits!

    I have never heard of anyone reporting that Christian priests have been knobbing kids* at the same time as saying bless you son. If you have can are you able to share the link? Funny old regressive world * Expression copyright Pasta.

    [Music] Did Led Zep or The Stones ever play in Brighton?

    So did Gene Vincent. Keymer, actually, as another poster pointed out. The Downs Hotel was an extraordinary venue. Hundreds of people, most smoking, locked into a sweaty basement. The aim on its Sunday night gigs was to get in for nothing. It was like Colditz Castle in reverse. I once broke in...

    [Music] Hammersmith Odeon ,first gig / other stuff

    Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry, Carl Perkins, Little Richard (I think) and the Everly Brothers plus a foot-of-the-bill Rolling Stones and a last fling appearance (we made sure of that) for the Swinging Blue Jeans. Late sixties.

    Sadly, I don't think Boris rides a bike anymore.

    Which Union is more united today the British one or the European one?

    You'll tell me if I'm wrong but this looks like a straw man argument. I have never heard people saying that Britain will become 'an irrevelance', so who are these many Remoaners (hilarious!) who keep telling you this? I have certainly heard the argument that UK will lose influence (often in...

    [Sussex] TeamSport Go Karting Brighton - Well Lancing actually

    Brighton Karting at Albourne is just great. Interesting outdoor track with flyover, as challenging as you want to make it. Professional marshalling and a good viewing platform. 10 mins up the A23 from Brighton.

    Angela Rayner

    I suppose the acceptability of an insult depends almost entirely on what its recipient has done. So if Angela Raynor had (to clutch an example out of the air) lobbied in favour of allowing the import of more meat from abused animals and a Tory MP called her scum then I would be full of...

    I just don’t understand why you posted this. It’s only replacing one of the deals we had already

    PMQ - Boris v Starmer - Spider And The Fly

    Or, similar in tone, 'a barmaid's idea of a gentleman'.

    Trump hasn't been fired three times for lying.

    [Politics] Brexit

    If the government has put us in a position where we have to greatly increase the amount of meat products from seriously abused animals coming into the country in order to keep our economy afloat then they should at least be exposed for the duplicitous little turds they are. You're right about...

    Blimey, has Gove started ranting about bloodstained Gemen bitches and calling people lying weasel hypocrites?

    Just how awful is this government? June 2020 edition

    It's also worth mentioning the deal like Canada's the EU won't give us. They're lying of course - the deal we're demanding differs considerably from the Canadian one. Where has our country gone?

    [Politics] Safeguards on food standards have been removed.

    Even when I disagree with them, I have often admired the way you have constructed your arguments. But this is completely haywire.

    Parry wants to be CEO of Manchester United - that's his interest in the proposal.

    [Politics] Safeguards on food standards have been removed.

    Your first point has been answered elsewhere. Turning to your second point, try to imagine for a moment that you are someone concerned about animal welfare standards generally and in particular in the USA. Because of this you decide to avoid chicken imported from America. Can you tell me how...

    [Politics] Safeguards on food standards have been removed.

    For me and I think for most the chlorine is not so much the problem as the reasons for it being needed in the first place.

    [Politics] Safeguards on food standards have been removed.

    I don't hate people with political opinions that differ from mine. I'll confess one thing though. I have an adamantine distaste for any individual who is so content with our already inadequate animal welfare standards that they don't give a flying fart when self-serving politicians claim to be...
