  1. Any rioting in the current climate is dumb and wrong. Couldn't care less what skin colour the perpetrators are.
  2. Again this is a common tactic to suggest I lack empathy for others rather than fundamentally disagreeing with their world view. I'm perfectly comfortable with level of empathy I display to all manner of people unlike people like you whose capacity for empathy seems to end once someone expresses the wrong opinions that they disagree with. Also patronising and wrong for you to suggest that all "people of colour" somehow possess the same opinions on this as if they are some sort of amorphous blob. There are clear and obvious problems in the black community that need to be worked on alongside any other complaints of racism.
  3. That must have been really frightening and no wonder it influences your opinion on the matter. Its a shame that some of the replies to your post thus far are just expressing faux outrage or indignation rather than a bit of empathy for someone who clearly has some real world experience of some of the issues. I think it's a bit hypobolic to claim we are a lawless state but I get what you are saying. To be fair I think you absolutely are allowed to speak out about rioting and issues within the black community itself but it is true to say that there is a smearing effort from some outlets if you do so.
  4. Each to their own but I don't see why anyone needs to see your homemade falafel all over social media that took you three times as long on the gas cooker in the back garden.
  5. A distant relative of mine has been putting up "festival" food he's been making with his wife in the garden with a camping gas cooker all weekend. Loser.
  6. He's been in a twitter war with people for ages. He does seem a bit of a berk on there but obviously once you upset the trans lobby he will have had an army reporting every tweet he makes so it was only a matter of time. You can get banned on twitter for ridiculous things anyway when it comes to trans things like so called "deadnaming" and referring to someone like Bruce Jenner as a he so it's not much of a surprise. Jk is much too big to get banned I expect but it's rather amusing that someone as right on and woke as she is can also get eaten by her "side" for the crime of calling a woman a woman.
  7. Being serious I can't see why anyone would rather buy Burnley than saints.
  8. When it's your right of way and someone gets all arsey because you don't immediately thank them for something they are legally required to do that's also annoying.
  9. Agree with every word.
  10. Largely agree. Knowing the history of all this you should be checking everything you tweet out and avoiding contentious topics on Israel (or employing people to check it for you.)
  11. Yes and the point is that even if villa did happen to do it, you won't have Watford, West ham and Bournemouth doing it too which is what you'd need for saints to get relegated. In a couple of weeks it will get to the point where more than one of them will need something like 8 points from 4 games to overtake us which isn't going to happen.
  12. For villa to finish above us they will have to get at least ten points from their next 6 games including against United, Liverpool and arsenal. If they lose to west ham then it would be at least three wins and a draw from five games with us losing every game for the rest of the season. Norwich would need 5 wins and a draw from their remaining 7 games and if West ham end up losing to villa they will need 3 wins and a draw from 6 games, two of which are against united and Chelsea. That leaves Bournemouth who would need to get ten points from 7 games which include city, Leicester, United and spurs and Watford who would need 9 points from 7 games which is achievable but they also play Chelsea, City and arsenal along with rivals Norwich and West ham so they will take points off each other. We are safe.
  13. Not good news I want West ham down
  14. It's not really of relevance to anyone on a thread about terrorist attacks.
  15. I asked what you think is most likely to happen nor what you want to happen. No deal or some sort of fudge deal? What is most likely?
  16. Don't agree. Both sides want a deal and there will be a fudge with ambiguous language that both sides will use to claim victory. Privately both sides will know that that outcome is preferable to a no deal.
  17. You're insane to think he's one of the worst players we have ever had.
  18. He probably means terrorists in the act of killing people and he's right - bit silly to think anyone would complain under the circumstances.
  19. BBC article reporting it was outside a hotel for asylum seekers. Seems an odd thing to highlight unless it's relevant to the killer's identity.
  20. Can't even win that trophy then...
  21. And people wonder why there's accusations of a two tier police system and a system of laws that only apply to some groups and not others? The cat I'd be interested in your view.
  22. Good to see that far right terrorism in the EU was down last year by 52.3%. That's a massive decrease which is great news. What a bit more concerning is the left wing terrorism which has shown a worrying spike upwards. Might be worth keeping an eye on.
  23. Agreed. That's rather stating the obvious I would have thought
  24. Has any team ever had a worse home form whilst staying up?
