These BritNats are obsessed with the sactity of this failing union and never miss an opportunity to derail topics by injecting Scottish independence into it, but there is a more appropriate place for it. That takes some beating RR. You bang more drum than Ginger Baker ???? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was his constant references to the war and then the roles his parents played and his implications, and sometimes actual statements, that this meant his opinion was valid whereas anyone who disagreed with him was anti British which prompted the posts you object to! Speaking personally, I know lots of facts about how the EU functions, the UKs relationship with the EU both pre and post Brexit and the effects on this country of both a decent trade deal and anything in between up to and including the worst possible outcome for the UK; no deal. It's not my fault that posting those facts means certain people can only respond with their 'anti British' knee jerks. It's you who does not respect the democratic vote of your countrymen, you would rather back foreigners than your own.....Very sad indeed..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In post after post you indicate that you wish to turn my country into some sort of quasi North Korea where the democratic right to criticise the government is viciously supressed. That is not what my father spent 6 years of his life fighting for; and I doubt that it's what yours did either! That my belief of what is best for the future of the UK differs from yours does not make me anti democracy nor a Brit hater. Yet you continually have to resort to such insults because you cannot put forward any cognitive arguments to support your own view. It is that which is very sad. 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7by7 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 From Margaret Thatcher's press secretary and ardent anti EU campaigner: Why was it left to Carrie Symonds to rid No10 of Dominic Cummings? asks BERNARD INGHAM Quote Of one thing you can be sure: Dominic Cummings, the PM's former chief adviser, seems to know nothing about the British constitution and seems to care even less. You might reasonably say the same of Boris Johnson. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similarly, "Christian" terrorists are not Christian. Because a terrorist - of whatever persuasion - proclaims membership of any faith based organisation does not make it so. I was heartened by the loud and widespread condemnation by leaders of many gfaithes and none of the perpetrators of the Manchester bombing. Sadly, this doe snot happen nearly often or widely enough. A terrorist is a terrorist is a terrorist. To kill or maim others because "My God is better or more right that your God" is just so far off the wall of sensibility thatI struggle to comprehend. Then again, I strugge to comprehend the whole religion thing anyway but the vast majority of those who do follow one do so in a way that does not impact those who do not share their view.
