So tell me nutty nic, just how many people have to have an opinion before it becomes accepted as a fact? As for your “opinions”, didn’t you once tell us that they carried more weight because you had travelled so much? And as for quoting Turkish, if you believe that gives you any more credibility you are even more nuttier than I thought.

If you got out more you would probably realise that a great many people share that opinion. It is certainly a “fact” that the Daily Mail currently exists to fuel right wing agendas and throw water on anything vaguely liberal. The front pages are testiment to that every single day. If you can’t see that then you are probably one of the people that they are aiming at. You would be hard pressed to find many media commentators who would compare the editorial stance of the Mail to either The Guardian or The Observer. The Guardian and Observer, on the other hand, are liberal mouth pieces but they don’t have the same attack dog mentality displayed at the Mail. They both have been critical of Starmer’s policies since he came into power, not something you would see from the Mail during the last 14 years of Tory rule. Anyway, you talk about fact and opinion but you are quite happy to spout your conspiracy theories as “fact”. It is telling that you and the other laughing boy emoji fetishist seem to find the same things amusing. Birds of a feather… Are you ever actually going to express an opinion about what Trump and his sidekicks Vance and Musk are up to on this thread or are you just using it to troll?

Steve Williams without doubt. Apart from being the best Steve he would make it into the best Saints X1 of all time.

If the IDF were just burning books it wouldn’t be so bad. They are killing women and children in their thousands while the world stands by and watches. Meanwhile someone gets upset just because the BBC doesn’t call someone a terrorist. Up to a month ago the UN estimated that 69% of the structures in Gaza had been damaged or destroyed. Add in a death toll approaching 50,000 and I think that it is a lot more serious than burning books. If anyone believed that the Israeli government are interested in ending the conflict here is evidence to the contrary. https://www.jns.org/smotrich-ben-gvir-applaud-renewed-fighting-against-hamas/ Hypo, you don’t need to keep demonstrating why you are a moron. We know you find dead Palestinians amusing. Every laughing emoji you post just makes you look more of an inhumane twat.

Sorry Gloucester but I can’t let this pass. The Mail is an odious far right propaganda sheet. The Guardian and Observer might be centre/left leaning, but let’s not pretend that they are a centre/left version of the Mail. The Mail has now become to the Middle Classes what The Sun used to be to the Working Classes - a purveyor of red meat to feed their prejudices.

There are not enough of them to search everything all of the time. You seem to have an issue with people taking responsibility for their vehicles. Imagine what would happen if no owners had any responsibility for stowaways in their vehicles. There would be hundreds of migrants in the back of lorries every day. Anyway, the fine has been cancelled, common sense has prevailed and anyone not aware of their personal responsibility for their vehicles before should know now, so all’s good. Isn’t it?

You don’t know that for certain and neither do I. Are there signs up at the border warning people to check their vehicles and making it clear that they will be responsible if they are found to be harbouring stowaways? If so you would be foolish not to wouldn’t you? The bottom line is that it is the law and you are expected to take responsibility for your vehicle. If you don’t, this is what happens.

A number of teams have kept “the walking dead” and still performed well in the Championship. Depending on who goes I still think that we have the makings of a competitive team next season. We do need a new manager/coach though.

Yes it is their job. Have you ever been through customs where they have checked every bag of every passenger. I don’t have a camper van so no, I haven’t thought about it. If I knew that I would be fined if I was responsible for taking a migrant across the border then yes, I would certainly think about it. I think a lot more people will be checking their vans now, which is the whole point.

The definition of a terrorist is “a person who uses unlawful violence and intimidation against civilians in the pursuit of political aims”. We all understand that it was a “terrorist” attack by Hamas on 7th October. It is telling though that hypo spends his time fretting about the terminology used by news reporters (when it has been clearly explained plenty of times) yet completely ignores the “terrorist”activities of Netanyahu’s government and the IDF. Apart from posting laughing emojis of course. Let us not forget that the ANC was also “proscribed as a terrorist organisation” by the UK, the US and others. Not sure what any of this has to do with Rupert Lowe, mind.

It’s is time that Juric was put out of his, and our, misery. Get Rusk to take over for the rest of the season. He can’t do any worse and he might even scrape three points from the remaining games. I can’t see us getting any more points with Juric at the helm.

I have posted news items from multiple sources on this thread including from the Israeli police, but apparently the forum’s biggest intellect has decided that they are all biased and worthy of laughing at (he has been joined by a couple of minor intellects who also think that this is funny and dead women and children are fair game as long as they are Palestinian and good for a laugh). Apparently then, the news agencies who have reported on the IDF destroying Gaza, land grabbing in the West Bank, the killing of upwards of 48,000 Palestinians, the charges of war crimes and genocide against members of the Israeli government , are all biased and worthy of laughing emojis by a few utter dickheads. All 3 of you are scumbags.

The bloke is completely mad. The UN as a source is one sided and bias? And that coming from the forum conspiracy theorist!!

This puts both Farage and Lowe into perspective. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/mar/11/reform-uk-nigel-farage-v-rupert-lowe

Only I don’t follow other posters around all the time do I? I also get pile ons whereas he and the others don’t. Anyway, why do you feel the need to join in? As far narcissists, you don’t get upset when I call Trump or Johnson a narcissist so why does it bother you so much if I call out another one?

This from the Pony Party a few years back. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/robert-jenrick-fines-covid-home-office-mps-b2263047.html

Says the man who froths at the mouth over people arriving in small boats. The law is very clear. You are responsible for your vehicles when you cross the channel.

How many vehicles cross the channel every day? How many Border Force staff are there? Can you imagine the queues if they checked every single vehicle? You can make the same argument about the people whose camper van it was. How long would it taken them to check the bike rack? If you go through customs and they find drugs in your bag that is down to you, even if you didn’t put them there. If you are responsible for your luggage surely you are also responsible for your camper van? I expect the appeal will be successful given the publicity, but at least this will raise awareness and make people realise that they are responsible for their vehicles.

I think that Donald will have to buy a lot more than one to help Musk out. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trump-says-he-will-buy-new-tesla-show-support-musk-2025-03-11/

As much as I agree that Border Force need to run checks, if they checked everything it would take even longer to get through the borders. How much time does it take to check that there are no stowaways hidden in your bike rack? It isn’t as if we haven’t had many years of migrants hiding in the back of trucks coming across the border. Isn’t it reasonable to expect that people crossing the border have taken basic care to ensure that they aren’t carrying stowaways? Think about it. A truck driver could bring 100 migrants over and if they were found by the Border Force and he claimed not to know anything about them, he could walk away scott free. By putting the onus on those with the transport to check in the first instance it makes it more difficult for the people traffickers.

She was on QT a few weeks back but she got an easier ride on that show. Total fruitcake and Trump apologist.

I’m enjoying the delicious irony in Nigel Farage, the UK’s champion of free speech, getting his knickers in a twist about…you guessed it…a member of his own political party exercising his own right to free speech.

Isn’t that the third penalty he has given away for handball this season?
