News report I have just seen is suggesting that the chap who attacked the people on the train with an axe may well not have come from Afghanistan at all and it looks like he came from Pakistan.

Does that make any difference? In essence an illegal economy migrant probably. So many camped out at Calais and so many Brits aiding and abetting their entry into the UK.

I agree no real difference but I just felt it showed the complete and wreckless lack of checking who was being admitted into Europe.

I went to Rheydt (Munchengladbach) earlier this year visiting friends, I won't be going back either, Germany is now a fked up sthole.

My wife and a friend went to the Cologne Christmas markets last year and loved it, they are thinking of Vienna next year having done Winchester this year, Winchester was lovely apparently.

It seems like they may be having fresh elections in Germany.

In Germany they now seem to be acknoledging the problem they have brought on themselves and are providing fenced off safe areas for female New Years revellers in Berlin.

Sad it came to this, such a backward step for Germany.
