Terror Attacks

[miamiwhite]

you're getting as bad as Mounts and Miami

Hang on tiger,

 

Don't drag me into this as I've been giving proven facts regardless of colour,race etc.

 

And for the record, I see this attack as a cowardly and totally uncalled for act which will stoke tensions even further.

 

It's a sad day when we're seeing innocent folk getting murdered on our streets.

I honestly wish we could find a way to solve it,but it's a hard mission to find a solution.

 

I seriously pray there's no more attacks whatsoever.

He actually said 'As I look ahead, I am filled with foreboding; like the Roman, I seem to see "the River Tiber foaming with much blood."'

 

And Nostradamus predicted a fire beneath the sea, which happened . . . oooooh scary

 

What was the context of Powell's speech?  Was it just referring to immigration or culture or both?

 

What's most frustrating is that it doesn't take a genius to suggest problems will occur when cultures collide; knowing that, more should have been done in the last half century to negate these effects, as much as possible.

 

All too easy to snigger and call him, or others, 'daft racists' etc etc

I'd start by putting him on a plane to Syria with a big fook off sign round his neck saying "It was me!"

why does the jewish press describe it as anti israel day

 

it is a protest against the oppression of muslims around the world, not just those being shot and bombed by israel

 

intersting that of the six speakers listed at the event, at least 3 are jews

 

 

 

 

fwiw

 

the police currently have their hands full and id have no problem with it being postponed

It's an anti Israel and Zionist rally to be precise and pedantic.

 

Stems back to 1979 when the Ayatollah called for the Palestinians to oppose Israel's existence.....i.e Death to Israel as displayed on many flags.

 

Other factors/factions have obviously come into play over the years, but it is predominantly an hate march to commerate the day of the Ayatollah's infamous speech in 1979.

I wasn't born at the time, and haven't ever heard the speech, but is it true he never actually coined the phrase "rivers of blood" at all - I think I heard this recently so it might not be true

 

The was quoting Virgil. It was an ad lib to his (vetted) speech.

There was plenty else in the speech about the impact on his Wolverhampton constituents and a specific comment about immigrant workers being allowed (arranged) marriages with women they had never met to found new families populating this country.

You are confusing him with a Liberal dandy.

Since the Tories and sections of the media tried to blame Gordon Brown and Labour for the banking crisis. I'd say since then the precedent for blaming a government for anything that occurs on "its watch" has largely been set.

 

While unreasonable to blame Brown for the crisis,it's not unreasonable to point out we could have been in a much better place to deal with it, if the labour government hadn't spent all the money

 

Ring any bells

Didn't I read the other day that the tories had promised to match Labour's spending commitments pound for pound?

[Casino]

Telling fibs to try and get elected

 

Whatever next

Not heard that, but I suppose its possible depending upon ho much the government 'earns' from its taxation etc.

[mickbrown]

So who radicalised this taff then?

Last I heard Weston-Super-Mare was in England.

It has produced some oddballs, though, John Cleese and Jeffrey Archer spring to mind.

 

Weren't they just filming for Hollyoaks?

Yes, the likes of Redwood were also calling for more deregulation of the financial sector.

[birch-chorley]

Think I posted the link a few weeks ago

 

In 2005 the Conservative manifesto had 6 key points, 2 of which were

 

Better discipline in schools

Cleaner hospitals

 

Fock all about regulating banks or saving money for a rainy day

 

Anyroad it's here again FYI....

Should never have been allowed, imo.  

 

Folk took the piss - which they would . . . especially given the standard of life where they came from

Tommy Robinson and Nick Griffin.

Tommy Robinson and Nick Griffin.

Not forgetting the delightful Paul Goulding

Cameron supported banking deregulation to a greater extrent than the Labour government. Essentially the crisis would have been worse under a Tory government in that regard. He also supported Labour's spending plans. Nobody could foresee the huge bank bailout required inspire of the post event revisionist takes that have been offered.

Even Gordon Brown accepted some responsibilty, though

Tommy Robinson on with Piers Morgan in the morning.

 

Interesting.

Yes. But the point is Cameron wanted to deregulate further. It would have been worse. Blaming Labour was a nonsense. As nonsensical as blaming May for the terrorist attacks. I mean she has made decisions that may have contributed to difficulties amongst the emergency services but doesn't mean she is at fault.

Some dude driven in to a police van in Paris armed to the teeth with grenades and Kalashnikovs apparently.

If the conservatives had been in power and cocked it up then they'd have been responsible (at least in part)

Has the hot weather got you back on the White Lightning?

 

Norman Prince is one of the Horton Weavers, the last band from Bolton to make it big. He's a Wanderer, pleasant enough if you bend his ear in the Platinum Suite and AFAIK not a rent boy.
