  1. Because I posted a link about the story. If you are genuinely interested all you have to do is open it and read. I would rather have a discussion with someone who has the full information. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cddmn6ge6e2o
  2. Read the link, or ask someone to read it out to you.
  3. It's like reading the rantings of a four year old. Why don't you tell him he smells like poo too just to round it off.
  4. Is that why you normally flounce out of threads when someone presents you with facts?
  5. Are you happy to see troops in your cities? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cddmn6ge6e2o
  6. Ah, so that's where you get your "education", it explains it all. And my comments stand, even more so now you've revealed your super well reasoned, completely impartial and well researched source. And you also locked in riclag's basement?
  7. Around half of them, but usually limited to certain aircraft, and definitely diminishing.
  8. Why not? It's a real and very well known place.
  9. Wow, the mayor of London working for a certain demographic - Londoners. Who'd have thought? The rest of your post is just ignorant nonsense. Do you live in London?
  10. I suggest the next mayor should be the one that has the best plan for London, the most logically thought out policies and, preferably, one with a proven track record. It'll probably be Khan again. Only haters and bigots look at a candidate's heritage, race, or religion.
  11. And up pops NorthernRyland with his usual racist hatred.... He belongs in London, where he was born and where he works, serving Londoners who keep voting him in.
  12. Penny pinchers? It's usually no cheaper, it is a preference. Some people, myself included, prefer breaking the flight. I don't want to sit on a tin can - even in business - for 12 hours straight. Flying Emirates to the UK you can usually choose a stop of 90 minutes or so, you are hardly waiting around for hours. I used to fly direct: Thai, then business on BA. Since the first time I tried Emirates and did the stop I have never gone back to direct. Done Emirates, Etihad, Oman, Gulf. All of them available with short stops and often you can even have a free overnight night stay in the city if you want. And generally those airlines are just better than any of the direct competition, especially in business. Something tells me you've never done it.
  13. So baiting is allowed now? Last time I called someone out in a thread I got a warning, but you've started an entire thread to bait someone. I have to say I don't know who JimCM is but pretty low to start an entire thread just to wind someone up.
  14. Rubbish. The National Mall has hosted plenty of protest art and physical protests in the past.
  15. Ah, your favourite old "but but but but but Biden" comeback. Thought provoking and brilliant.
  16. Hardly exclusive to Thais. Happens all over the world. All of these are from the US, there are hundreds across the country.
  17. Ah, right, so now it's ok for the right to celebrate a death! But if a comedian comes out with political sattire on the reaction to the death of someone (not the death itself) then the right are up in arms. Hypocrits.
  18. Yep, same. I lived there 30 years ago and still visit 1-2 times a year. Agree with all your points, especially the clean air and great public transport. There's a reason Khan keeps getting voted in by people who live there.
  19. If you're a snowflake that can't differentiate between the subject of ridicule in a comedy routine and an act that happened then you are quite dense, or just a massive snowflake. As Ricky Gervais put it: People get offended when they mistake the subject of the joke with the actual target and smart people know you can deal with anything, particularly when dealing with something like irony. He did not mock the killing, he did not make fun of a murder. He criticised the reaction to it by certain orange people who were using it for political point scoring. And you can't quote where he made fun of a murder because he didn't. Either quote it, or admit you have no idea what you're talking about. And just a day after it happened you can see how upset Trump really was:
  20. I know what his profession is. And how did he make fun of the murder?
