    It's a bit like when the Luftwaffe released those Tour of Dresden 13th - 15th February 1945 t-shirts.

    Really couldnt see what was in it for them.

    Fox quality cunning or lemming quality blind stupidity.

    We need to know.

    Bought one of these the other day, tackiest piece of crap I think I've ever had. I'm sure market rip offs cost them more to make and are of a higher standard than this <laugh>

    I'm not happy with the spelling of "til.
    Unless the plan is to force all the "hooligans" into agricultural servitude - TILL they die!

    I didn't think it had an apostrophe because "until" comes from "till" rather than "until" being truncated?

    By George, I think you're right.
    I've just checked in the Oxford dictionary - from Old Norse apparently.
    I've been out-pedanted. I don't think that word is in the dictionary. Still, if it's all right for Shakespeare to make up words...

    Do you think the shirts will be biodegradeable and turn into dust after 30 days like the Allams thought the campaign would? Or is this a subtle admission that the argument is lost and they're are joining the other side?
