Do you think that all the Jewish land and wealth in Germany, Poland Slovakia e.t.c should be returned?
What about the terrorist attack against Israel by Palestinian groups? are they OK
It seems you have taken a side and are happy to condemn one group totally ignoring their suffering and misery and ignore the group that has caused that.Where most people accept there is no easy solution and both side have suffered.
And you are happy to do it based on Race. You sound like that MP.
I believe in reparations be it for blacks, Jews, Palestinians or any group of people that have been victimised by another group, I don't do bullies What about the terrorist attack against Israel by Palestinian groups? are they OK

And you've still dodged the question, I wonder why?

Indeed. Although it's fair to say legitimate criticism of Israel is sometimes unfairly labelled anti-semitism, that wording is pretty clear.
As for Salmond, he didn't show the fortitude (as much as I disagree with it) of the Sinn Fein MPs. He has sworn to the Queen, and clearly as such London is his nation's capital. To then call it a 'dark star' is questionable at the least.
I assume he's alluding to the economic vacuum that London exerts over the rest of the country, I'm not aware of the connotations behind "dark star" is it the old "metropolitan" code?As for Salmond, he didn't show the fortitude (as much as I disagree with it) of the Sinn Fein MPs.

You are defending the actions of the racist Paul Monaghan and even tried to come up with a more suitable term for the group he was abusing like that makes it more acceptable.
Calling someone a thick is hardly defending them ffsNow the boss says give it a rest I suggest we do that before we lose posting privilages.

That just reeks of bitter jealousy Strocky. There's plenty of work down there if you are interested in benefiting from the 'economic vacuum' instead of just moaning about it.Pathetic really - you mention another part of the world as if somehow you are excluded from it when that is the polar opposite of the case.

Will pick you up on a couple of things if I may, not every-bodies God is money, some folks get as much satisfaction out of volunteering as earning a 6 figure bonus for knowing how to defraud a spreadsheet Pathetic really - you mention another part of the world as if somehow you are excluded from it when that is the polar opposite of the case.
London isn't the be all and end all for earning, the extra you get is quickly gobbled up in rent/costs, you can easily have a better quality of life/spending power in other parts of the country
The point I was trying to make is that the hold that the "market" has over the governing of our country has made our outlook very London-centric to the detriment of other parts of the country
The UK has very diverse regional nuances that appear (to me) to be diluted by the macroeconomics of the "city"

Not interested in anything you consider 'education' thanks. They must have been treated quite well, otherwise why did they wish to stay on in the commonwealth?
How sad a closed mind, will give you a quick summary "thanks for helping us out when it suited, but why don't you go home?"How many dominions are controlled by Westminster now since the 50s?

Isn't that what you and your nat friends wanted to say to the UK when they thought the oil had value.
Oil "had" value and the UK said thanks http://www.theguardian.com/politics/scottish-indep...
