I'm sure racists couldn't give a toss. Their prejudices are ingrained, and like a Trump supporting coronavirus denying, Bible thumper, they are not going to be swayed by facts or informed argument.

I am neither gammon nor racist but I would give them kudos for their action. The whole 'taking a knee' thing has now run it's course and is verging on anachronism.

As long as the crew have parachutes.........

It did no harm, and keeping it would have continued to do absolutely zero harm.

I thought the Chinese created it.

God, no.

Other than Donald Trump and Bolsaro in Brazil, I'm not sure anybody has claimed it is made up. There do seem to be, however, questions around the veracity of the statistics, in England in particular.

There is an outbreak of CoViD-19 at a Test and Trace centre in Motherwell. I wonder how successful they will be in finding the contacts of those infected.

He safely caught the 4 shots that went straight to him.

How easy is it to slip on a bar of soap on a private jet ?

Treason ?

Get the team that sorted out the Princess Diana problem to organise her reception committee.

True. It's not an issue of 'black' or 'white', what's more important is whether you are on the dark side of the Pennines, ( east ), or on God's side, ( west ).

Six miles northeast (ish) of my house is the site of Sambo's grave in Sunderland Point, on the Lune estuary. Sambo was a 'coloured' cabin boy who served the captain of a ship that anchored there, and a few days later Sambo died. Should his headstone be removed ?

A 21 year old lad in our village commited suicide last month after suffering with severe depression. His death certificste lists CoViD as CoD.

Nobody on here, ( I hope ), would think to use the 'N word' as an insult, or agree with the sentiments it evokes. However, the dog's name is a fact, the use of it as a code-word during Operation Chastise is a fact; as much so as the facts that the planes used were Avro Lancasters, and that they had the mid upper gun turrets removed to facilitate carrying the bouncing bombs. Rather than rewrite or erase the bits of history we might now disagree with, it is better to understand why it is now inappropriate to use the word, and to ensure that such attitudes never arise again.

The more you post, the more likely it becomes that you are a Russian bot.

Does it change the point - no. ( And as far as my younger son is concerned, anything south of the Mersey and Irwell is in France ).

Tens of thousands of mink on a Spanish fur farm are to be culled after testing positive for CoViD, this follows a similar incident in The Netherlands.

So you support erasing history ?

When you live in Lancashire, and Lancashire Cricket Club play there, they are. The Metropolitan areas are purely for local government administration.

Liverpool and Manchester are in Lancashire, not Tyne & Wear.

The RAF have removed the headstone fron Guy Gbson's dog's grave because it was called Nigger. Is this an insult to one of their greatest wartime commanders ?

Exactly. Especially playing Hojbjerg in defence, he simply isn't an overlapping FB.
