    The 6m figure is normally used in relation to the Jewish victims of the Holocaust and doesn't include all the other groups who died in the labour & death camps or in the T4 programme for instance.

    20m+. Mao leads the table on 30m+, possibly rising to about 70m.

    Estimated between 2-8m

    The gulag accounts for between 1-1.7m, around 770,000 executions, around 500,000 from forced settlements, plus events such as the Katyn massacre

    There are estimates that go as high as 20m, but that's including two famines where 6-9m are estimated to have died

    VARsical decision at Selhurst Park to disallow Tompkins' goal.
    Liverpool benefit of course.

    Yet more proof that VAR is just another tool to be abused to make sure their darlings win the league, in just about every match Pool play they have major game changing decisions go their way, if the mug on the pitch can`t influence the result in Pool`s favour, then VAR will.

    The VAR in this game is Chris Kavanagh, the same Chris Kavanagh that gave Pool a last minute penalty against Leicester when Mane dived, and some people think there is no bias.

    It's not that I don't see why the goal was ruled out. But also it's certainly not "clear and obvious" either. We also know that VAR almost never overrules the ref. We were sold the idea that this system would be somehow scientific and foolproof, but if the same refs are involved then the same bias creeps in. So rather than making it an even playing field, it's given "certain" teams a second chance to get away with it.

    Not the case anymore as they lowered the "bar" for clear & obvious errors following the criticism they had leading to a raft of decisions/non decisions being changed by VAR . In fact the review of them has already listed 2 pens that VAR gave after ref waved play on* which were incorrectly awarded.<laugh>
    Despite the narrative you seem to miss the basic point that VAR cannot give definitive answer on subjective questions . I bask in the smugness of having opposed it from the start.

    * The 2 pens were
    Daniel James instigating contact against Norwich .
    Delefeou (sp) against Chelsea .
