Yeah and not colonize half the world etc ; the genie is out of the bottle though

what about the crusades ?

 

 

we probably have to accept this is the modern day price of amassing an empire and playing poker with the proceeds

 

keeping African farmers down with the cap, invading middle east countries when suits

 

apologising for some of it might be a start

 

but as long as most of us are lucky enough not to be caught up in something we'll probably just crack on

 

a dirty bomb however...!

Dont recall the same outrage for atrocities in Rwanda ; symptom of Belgian colonization i know

( or Khmer Rouge ; Pol Pot for that matter)

know not the same as current situation ; but mass genocide that typically ended as chip papers

Conversely Boat People from Vietnam seemed to be re-housed ; welcomed overseas

i feel the advent of social media ; the en vogue followers of lily allen and charlotte church type and brainwashed left wing bbc types are as ludicrous as the views of the of the daily mail / bnp types

Im not usually one to get high and mighty about this sort of thing, but it is hard to see the greatest city in the world suffer like this again.

London is a shiter of a city

Am glad this board was not on the go during " the troubles " as i suspect a lot of folk on here would support the balaclava mob as long as it supported their anti establishment ideals

You're a bit interesting

As aaid points out, this is far more damaging to May than Corbyn through happening 'on her watch' on top of cuts to the police. Trying to twist this into some preemptive anti-Corbyn coup is idiotic. It also deflects attention away from the reasons those who carry out these acts feel the need to do so, and the only hope of stopping them is to focus on those reasons, not to ignore them.

Attlee, Wilson - we've had Labour governments carrying out socialist policies that Corbyn-in-power could only dream of. There are far simpler methods of controlling the executive in a parliamentary democracy than organizing the random slaughter of one's own citizens - just watch Yes Minister.

First off there is zero evidence of anything like that at the moment. You've got to be evidence based on these things, but there is no evidence to look at. So nothing to discuss. However...since folk are speculating.

All this hinges on the axiom it was done at May's behest for her benefit. Which wouldn't make any sense. These things are are normally long-term plans for long-term goals, the "most famous" being Operation Gladio, which was NATO run and lasted decades over multiple nations.

Seems a lot of politicking between the police/security services and the government.

Suspects were reported but nothing effective done. Politicians lying about how effective their budgets for police/security services are.

 she said all the right things

 

 

http://www.newstatesman.com/politics/june2017/2017/06/has-theresa-may-really-paused-campaigning-her-terror-speech-suggests-not

The second half of the speech, however, was very different in tone. The prime minister moved from the realm of non-partisan opinion and warm platitudes to a political argument, going so far as to outline a series of policy measures in response to the attacks. The big items: further regulation of the Internet, more powers for the security services, a continuation of our military efforts to defeat and destroy the self-described Islamic State and a clampdown on supports of jihadism in the United Kingdom.

Now, these aren’t suggestions which I could insert into the Labour party – or Green, or Liberal Democrat – manifesto without you noticing I’d done it. In moving away from the circumstances of the attack and towards what our response should be, May is effectively campaigning. She is offering a series of measures which can only be brought forward after 8 June if enough people vote for the Conservatives. 

Perhaps that is fine: it’s perfectly fair and right that we should have an argument about how to response to the London Bridge attacks. But it feels less fair for the governing party to agree to a pause in campaigning and use that pause to advance ideas, while implicitly inhibiting criticism or alternatives from the opposition parties.

Check the posting history of girvanta and Auchinyell Sox Change.

It's like taking a trip back to a BUF rally in the mid 1930s. 

Don't care if I get a suspension for this. It's the truth.

Prove it with factual statements or apologize. A suspension will be the last thing you will care about if I ever meet you and that's the truth

You are pretty easy to wind up though ; you initially got bent out of shape ( wasnt meant as an lbgqt slur btw) any time i suggested certain players were too small to make it at national level

coupled with being a tad sanctimonious 

didnt realise you could get suspended for naming a poster in such a way as you described

How old are you ; just out of interest?

may be a generation thing

None of your business.

I don't believe people are inferior to me because they have a different skin colour, nationality, ethnicity or religion to me. You do. And you are proud of it.

Highly ironic that you are an immigrant (and that is what you are) to another land criticising immigrants that come here to live and work. 

Still enjoy making jokes about "the paddies" and "the poofs" do you ?

What a charming man.

Irn-bru will rain from the sky before I ever apologise to a creature such as yersel.

Your whole very sad post history is proof enough.

Whatever.

In addition to your hatred of immigrants and Muslims, you've also got form for jibes at gay people and Catholics. Then there was that time you told the Irish posters on here to get lost.

New PM Trudeau seems a like he'll end up giving you a massive coronary anyway. What with him being a "terrorist loving marxist PC commie" and all that jazz .............

I forgot that the North East is known for it's massive Asian population so it is .............

Your local economy would also be totally snookered without the Poles, Lithuanian, Latvians. Dream on if you think you'll get the locals to take over from them in the crap low paid jobs when your beloved Tories kick these hard working people out.

Even in the 70s was a growing (minority) of Chinese and Indian (sub continent folks) living in Aberdeen ; used to get my flares and bay city rollers tank top from Pakistani shop on George Street

Your post history is full of examples of your intolerance to your fellow human beings. 

Once you even suggested that Scotland's Muslim population should all be forced to visit their local kirk FFS. Lunatic.

If I had a neighbour with politics like yours and they had kids, I'd report them to social services without hesitation.
