hypochondriac

When you considered it acceptable to shout it in public at people including children you mean?

Not just this. Your comments from earlier in the thread were worthy of applause too. Well done sir.

I like you VFTT. It's good when people aren't blind to the party they support and are happy to say what they think.

Agreed.

Personally I'm hoping whoever comes in reduces business rates for nurseries. Both parties have spoken about it but done nothing and the proposed rising of "free" childcare rates (that aren't free) are going to ruin nurseries.

Yep.

Many people died needlessly when labour were last in power but it doesn't seem to stop people voting for them.

Really not very surprising. Not really worth giving it attention and best ignored.

Yep.

We've been confident about a lot of things but I've yet to see one of our big name players sign a new contract since Cortese left. JWP and Davis don't count since its debatable whether either of them could play at a higher level.

Lefties love to rewrite history.

Why are you changing my post? Makes you look odd...

Some people like the south and some like the North. Unbelievable Jeff.

Hasn't affected the polls though has it.

Agree. An anti tory ticket is only going to persuade those who would never have voted tory in the first place.

First past the post system.

I'm not sure I know enough about the arguments for and against them. Can't say I've seen fgm, forced marriage etc linked to this type of discrimination though like you find in some other cultures. Happy to be proven wrong though, as I said I don't know.

The use of the burqa is a complex one. Unfortunately it isn't illegal in public yet (though imo it should be.) so would be difficult to enforce. I certainly would like to see segregation in public questioned and challenged though.

Nonsense. The clear sign of someone scrabbling is to suggest that the other person is making it up. It makes you seem desperate tbh and I don't really think you have any grounds to claim that. Suffice to say I disagree with you about a link but you can pretend I'm playing party politics if it makes you feel better about your poor argument. Unfortunately I had more experience of this discrimination thing than you thought and it blew up in your face a bit.

Wrong again. These people are from Iraq but now live in the UK. Have spoken to many of them including other friends and acquaintances, been to mosques etc and seen this sort of discrimination first hand. Didn't mention my experience dealing with this sort of thing at work either. What extensive experience do you have then to make you oh so enlightened?

You obviously haven't seen the effects of these attitudes first hand then.

Pretty sure I explained what it represents already. For me it is offensive in the same way the burkha is.

Sorry I thought you were talking about playing. Officials, then yes I agree.

Where did I say it did? I didn't mention any other cultures or religions because I wasn't referring to them and I don't think it's relevant to this discussion. I've already said that segregation at this type of event is wrong and that would be the case whatever religion or culture they were from and whatever politicians they were speaking to. Muslim society dies have a particular problem in some areas of this from what I have experienced, ranging from mild forms of bullying to forced marriages etc. If the "AND" response is true then that's very disappointing.

Well really it's a biological thing more than anything else I would imagine.
