Hmm, I have read a bit around that incident. It would seem, based on the evidence, to have been a genuine mistake by the Israelis, who mistook the Liberty for an Egyptian, Hunt Class destroyer. And I'm not sure how highlighting this incident supports SiP's contention that Israel have something 'on' the US

Are you Pap's best mate? That's conspiracy theory gone mad. "Literally destroy the US"? Literally?

Not sure if any of you have seen this. Excellent, if a little depressing. [video=youtube;-evIyrrjTTY]

You're not invited.

Hmmm, you could be right; could be wrong. [insert suspicious looking emoticon here) Why don't you pop around to our place and see for yourself?

Apparently this is very common among women. My wife has dropped several phones down the toilet. She has a Samsung and a work Blackberry. The other day, she dropped them BOTH down the toilet! I'm afraid to inform you that, more than likely, it'll be terminal.

Then you are not an excellent speller. Piece of the proverbial ****. I got an easy 12/12 - made all the easier by it being multiguess.

Except, they reported that support among the general public for staying in the EU is now higher than support for leaving and Clarke did rightly point out that only a third of the people who voted supported UKIP and they were only a third of the electorate (= approx 1 in 10)

You can only imagine the disappointment of the students attracted to the university by that video when they see the reality.

Serious business, the internet. I'll hold Ludwig's coat.

Lucky, lucky, lucky....

Exactly. The whole halal hysteria is about feeding a fear of 'islamification' that is so beloved of far right parties like the BNP. For me, the slightly worrying thing is that this hysteria and its associated agenda and discourse have been appropriated by mainstream media.

Just thank your lucky stars you're not saddled with this:

Arghhhh, my eyes, my eyes!

Agreed it is going beyond the OP request, but as you raised it, I thought I'd pursue it a bit - just so I'm clear. This would, of course, mean that the likes of two of Nigel Farage's kids don't count as their mother was born in Germany. Neither of the Miliband brothers count as their parents were Belgian and Polish. For that matter, Michael Portillo (son of a Spaniard) doesn't get included. Neither does our own Jay Rodriguez (father is Spanish). So, presumably, your advice doesn't apply to any of these people or, indeed, people like them. Is that correct?

You can get stuffed if you think I'm going to pledge myself to your fool's errand.

Oh, in that case, it'd be a fair cop.

I'm a little confused. What has bread got to do with anything? Presumably a sliced, WHITE loaf. So how far back do we go? The problem with your definition is that it means that my parents parents had to be born, bred and raised in Britain, and their parents, and their parents, and so on and so on. At some point, surely someone was an immigrant, otherwise there is almost no one in the UK who fits your definition. So, for clarification, how far back do I go before someone is allowed to be an immigrant? Obviously not my grandparents, or my parents wouldn't fit the definition and then I wouldn't. What about my great-grandparents? Is that okay, or further back still?

BOO

Out of interest, could you please define a 'native' Brit for me so that I can check whether I'm one or not. Thanks. And, what if I'm a non-native Brit? Can I also follow your advice? Or is there some other advice I should follow?

Absolutely, this 110 million, billion per cent. Why, oh why, oh why can't we use the 'P' word and 'N' word whenever and wherever we want? Eh? Eh? All because a bunch of people of South Asian or African ethnic origin supposedly find it offensive. Pathetic. They should man up and get over it. Some of my best friends are black and Asian* and I call them Ns and Ps all the time and they just laugh along. They're not offended at all and we all get on like a house on fire. Vote UKIP and we can go back to those halcyon days when you could call a spade a spade and get him to do some menial job which no white people wanted to do. * I have no friends who are black or Asian

This whole Goat Boy/Glasgow Saint thing - is it like masturbation?

*cough cough* stalker *cough cough*

He's injured.

As I thought, I clearly didn't understand the rules
