  1. You remember incorrectly. No person acting on behalf of the UK did any such thing.
  2. Examples of why the law to provide safe access zones around clinics offering abortion services linked below: https://www.bpas.org/media/uwflorww/2022-august-clinic-harassment-update.pdf
  3. The applicable law was enacted by the previous Tory Government.
  4. Abortion is not killing babies. Abortion, in the UK, is a personal and private health choice and is not the business of anyone other than the woman seeking an abortion and her health providers. The ‘safe access laws’ (Public Order Act) governing protests near clinics providing abortion services are there precisely to protect the right of women to obtain healthcare privately and without interference from anyone else., religious nuts included.
  5. There’s a member of this forum who in the last year posted his experiences of going home to get NHS treatment, it’s not at all uncommon.
  6. Don’t knock it Jonny, you wouldn’t be the first British expat to be on the plane home if ever you get seriously ill. Many British expats in Thailand don’t have health insurance, their backstop is a flight home, their adventures here effectively underwritten by the NHS.
  7. Easily dealt with. Let the world’s press in and let them do their job of freely investigating and freely reporting what they see.
  8. Yes is called protection women’s right to make their own health choices. Your freedom of speech stops at the surface of anyone else’s body. Now go for coffee.
  9. He will. The chaos and uncertainty his idiocy gives rise to will harm investment in the U.S. and give rise to costs to US consumers. Insider traders however will make a killing.
  10. Ill-informed nonsense, the EU’s common economic area was created by removing tariffs for those nations that joined it, those nations that didn’t, and the one that left, don’t get the membership benefits of zero tariffs.
  11. Back to topic: “BBC Faces Backlash Over Alleged Bias in Coverage of White Farmer Killings in South Africa”
  12. Let me demonstrate the bias in your statement: Alleged bias is allegedly breaking the rules of the Royal Charter.
  13. During wartime the U.S. has relied heavily on foreign intellectuals to develop the means to win those wars. I’m not sure on what basis you claim America is done with anything, let alone the things you personally are consumed with.
  14. Feel free to offer your suggestion for alternative news sources.
  15. I’m not sure why you need to talk it up. On the relative thing, most sexual abuse of children is by relatives. “Familial abuse accounts for some two thirds of all child sex abuse, though the true figure could be even higher due to under-reporting.” https://www.gov.uk/government/news/unseen-evil-sex-abuse-in-families-going-under-the-radar-say-inspectorates
  16. Who said I was referring to myself? My question was “Who said it was limited to only the numbers under the Erasmus Scheme?” Having read through the thread I have no idea who you were referring to, I thought perhaps you might enlighten us all.
  17. Yes all those things are examples of attempts to undermine the BBC fir reporting stuff some don’t want to be presented to the public. Attempts to discredit the BBC are not uncommon, here’s an example, there are others: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/mar/04/chinas-communist-party-ran-campaign-to-discredit-bbc-thinktank-finds#:~:text=It describes a “coordinated effort,deepen and expand existing divisions.
  18. People trying to make business plans must be loving this.
  19. “Our negotiated deal with the United Kingdom is working out well for all,” Trump wrote, referring to the recently finalized trade agreement between the two countries. “I strongly recommend to them, however, that in order to get their energy costs down, they stop with the costly and unsightly windmills, and incentivize modernized drilling in the North Sea, where large amounts of oil lay waiting to be taken.” Nice deal you have here, it would be a shame if you didn’t do something I want you to do that causes me to reconsider our nice deal.
