Off Topic Politics Thread (no personal schizzle)

OK. I just thought that someone may have contravened the THREE RULES and PC Donut had to step in to uphold the law.

 

The view from Spain.

 

He doesn't seem to want the Colin Lee thing to end but insists on being able to take pot shots at Saxton.

From what I understand RCL accepted my apology and we have moved on , Dunger is not happy and uses this to attack BRB.

This thread has been bubbling along without so much entrenched vitriol from the usual tribes and Dunger dropped a massive stinky turd on it Friday night and forced brb to lock it.

Since its revival and no Dunger having a hissy fit it's back on track .

 

No. Had nothing to do with anyone else. As i said the attack was unexpected and unprovoked, i only saw it because Donga quoted me re Toby.

 

I also gave multiple warnings, that if people did not reign back on certain insults i would deactivate their account. I also stated that no one will get on the site without me approving new accounts. But people like to test the system, and i've seen the system being tested, they have found they cannot get in and remain locked out! The days of 85 socks being created have ended. Even if i disappeared for a month they still cannot get in, they can try and use fake or even genuine id's and attempt to modify to gain access, they will not get in, without my approval, and at last, users are discussing better as a result of it.

 

I missed his tirade, but if it was on the politics thread, we’ll, that’s what that thread is; lots of people attacking each other. Probably best not to take any of it personally.

Donga’s a good poster (for a scouse). Shame to lose him.

 

If I was May, I’d retire to Spain immediately.

I have no great love for the woman (she was a terrible Home Secretary), but she has gone above and beyond the call of duty in trying to lead her insane rabble of a party through the stormy seas whipped up by her spineless predecessor.

This could spell the end for this forum.

 

Good for him, it's nice to have things to believe in

 

"Could"

 

that word

There are some who quote it as fact

 

A "fanatical" couple who named their baby after Hitler have been convicted of being members of a neo-Nazi terrorist group.

Adam Thomas and Claudia Patatas of Waltham Gardens, Banbury, Oxfordshire, were convicted at Birmingham Crown Court after a seven-week trial.

The 22-year-old and his partner Patatas, 38, were on trial accused of being members of the "extreme and violent" far-right group National Action, which was banned in 2016.

The court heard that Thomas, who gave their baby the middle name Adolf, posed for a photo with the child while wearing Ku Klux Klan robes.

It emerged that counter-terrorism officers from Prevent had visited the couple's home in October last year "due to concerns Ms Patatas may be involved in the extreme right wing".

A third defendant, Daniel Bogunovic, of Crown Hills Rise, Leicester, was also convicted of being a member.

The warehouse worker was a leading figure in National Action's Midlands chapter.

Thomas, a former Amazon security guard, was also convicted on a majority verdict of having a copy of a document likely to be of use to a terrorist, which explained how to make a "viable" bomb.

Patatas means Potatoes in Spanish.


Claudia Potatoes doesn’t quite have the same ring to it somehow...

Spuds.

 

Police have released CCTV images of two people they want to speak to over the vandalism of a Sikh First World War memorial unveiled ahead of Armistice Day.

The Lions of the Great War statue in Smethwick, Birmingham - built to mark the contribution and sacrifices of soldiers of all faiths to the British military - was targeted by vandals in the early hours of Friday.

It is the latest one of a number of monuments of its kind in the UK and had only been shown off for the first time five days earlier.

Police are treating the incident as racially aggravated criminal damage.

The words "sepoys no more" can be seen sprayed onto the wall beside the statue and - according to Birmingham Live - a thick black line has also been drawn through the words "Great War".

Sepoy was a term used for soldiers in the British Indian Army.


Superintendent Martin Hurcomb, from Sandwell Police, said: "Officers are working closely with the congregation and management at the nearby Guru Nanak Sikh temple, as we understand that this attack has caused a lot of concern in the community.

Yeah, they'll definitely catch them soon.

Odd wording for the graffiti. How many people would even know what the word Sepoy meant?
