  1. Demonstrably untrue. There'll be thousands of them flown during Euro 2024in a couple of weeks. No one will think they're all racist.
  2. I know. I was referring to the "British Christians" not Fox. And I was being sarcastic. I'd have thought that was obvious. And I'm English.
  3. Guess who else was there. Race and religious war the target.
  4. And there's the Euros 2024 too. Lots of flag waving without the racism.
  5. I think Robinson gets a bad rap. He's only upholding the British values of intolerance, racism, xenophobia, violence and stupidity. 🙂 Anyway, they'll have to move over soon, it's the Pride march. Show them how it should be done.
  6. Pretty clear cut. I wish the authorities would get serious with these people.
  7. A pension is not a perk. It's a legal entitlement that's based on 35 years or more of contributions. There are no other perks.
  8. That's idiotic. If we all returned home all our pensions would be uprated and we would all get higher pensions which the taxpayers including yourself would have to fund. Not to mention all the U.K.benefits that are denied us. Be careful what you wish for.
  9. If the reason is that some pensioners living abroad don't contribute to the U.K.economy (not always true as many like myself pay U.K. tax), then pay the increases only as credits. These credits can be only for U.K. purchases, thereby contributing to the U.K. 's benefit. Purchases could for instance be Treasury Bonds or Premium bonds which would benefit the U.K. government substantially. Even if they were 0% they would be an advantage. Perhaps with a minimum 5 year holding. It'll never happen of course. The reason they do it is because they know they can get away with it.
  10. It's now the American people who are on trial. If they vote for a convicted felon, which I understand they can, then they deserve all that's coming. Like the UK and Brexit.
  11. Chalk and cheese. There's legal precedent for a second referendum vote. There's none for throwing out an election result because you don't agree with it. In fact in some countries a first referendum is sometimes ratified by a second one. I think Denmark and Ireland have done this.
  12. True, but then you avoid them, ignore them, don't engage with them. But George says he watches them and clearly tries to analyze them. If they approach you or pester you it's a different matter of course.
  13. Why do other people's lives interest you?
  14. It's black and white in some counties and not so clear in others. And things change. A few years ago I wouldn't have thought twice about retiring in Malaysia but these days I'm not so sure. It's only people discussing something. What's your problem with that?
  15. Which is the main thrust of the podcast. It's clear that in some countries gay people are not welcome and may face hostility. Hence the discussion.
  16. I think calling gays fa***ts is a bit more than not openly advocating for them. Also LGBT is not a religion. Also Thais didn't make Buddhism, they adopted a school which comes from Sri Lanka via India.
  17. 3 days to LGBT Pride Month. Really looking forward to the drag queen Popes now. 😃 They never learn.
  18. Yes, and Willie Whitelaw's "Short, Sharp, Shock" that cost a fortune.
  19. No source for this and I can't see anything on Thai media. Any links to reliable sources?
  20. What, to someone who's just interested in sarcastically goading and baiting? Not on your nellie.
  21. I believe that aliens have the advanced technology to travel billions of miles through space but when they get to the Nevada desert they crash.
