I like discussing society and politics with people who can debate without getting angry and shouting.

Apartheid was in operation before he moved to South Africa, however it appears it is what motivated him to move there.

You mean to tell me that there other countries that produce wine that will sell it to Canada, and that Canada will still be able to collect tax revenue on said wine sales? But will it taste of Freedom and Patriotism?

This is the turkey that voted for Christmas complaing about the gravy. On a side note, I just realised she even sounds like a turkey gobbling.

I have no doubt there are vile people in every party, but most understand that, as an elected official, dropping a misogynistic incest joke (at least we hope it is a joke) about a collegue is inadvisable even if there are no undercover reporters in the vicinity. It's called maturity.

I don't remember my first single, but I do remember my first albums, I bought 3 in one go, Depeche Mode, The Cure (I'm proud of my choices), and Bananarama (still deeply ashamed).

You people aren't asking the right questions. A company hires a person with a law degree but not having passed the bar, and no experience, to go half way round the world to give them legal advice in a country with different laws written in a different language. This doesn't seem plausible.

I lived in a place for a short while where fish waste was fed to chickens. All the chicken tasted of fish - slightly old fish. People who grew up on it thought us foreigners were making it up.

So the narrative is, it's all about his fame, which means the allegations are because he is famous, case dismissed. I would say this is contempt of court.

In my personal experience, his supporters are often of an age where they receive disability benefits and hold a blue badge. They will also rush to tell me this new "statistic" without any realisation of the irony.

It doesn't matter how rich I am, how I display my wealth, who I have given it to before, how many times, or that I am drunk, you don't get to mug me. None of those mitigate or excuse guilt. Sexual assault shouldn't be treated differently.

He wants Pakistan to stop people leaving, what like North Korea, or East Germany and the rest of the Soviet bloc during the Cold War? And as we all know from the war in Afghanistan, their borders are porus and somewhat lawless in areas. All bluster and B.S.

I looked her up on Wikipedia, she was born in 1984 or 1985. Did they not have written records in Los Angeles in the mid 80's? Does anyone know why there is this confusion?

Quick test, Rebecca, name as many famous people who were featured on the £5 note before Churchill in 2016? Bonus points if you tell us anything about who they were. If you want to learn about great British people for patriotic reasons, books are available. Warning - Requires reading ability.

Swearing an oath on a book you don't follow is a bit like crossing your fingers. It doesn't bode well. I would be more suspicious if she had used the Bible.

So there was no "evidence of SUCCESSFUL interference" meaning there was evidence, which, in his subjective opinion, was not successful. Always read between the lines with that cretin.

The correct response is to demand a public enquiry. If it is false, then our new PM would be on his way out, if true then those involved would be exposed. People's reaction to the claim is telling.

When public funds are used in a private school, it effectively becomes a charity for the privileged.

You need to take a page out of Rugby Union play book. Even the top tier mens professional and international matches are refereed by women and are treated with respect by players, coaching staff, and the fans.

They did this to themselves. We are not judging them based on their looks, we are judging them for their decision to look like that. The distinction is important.

Most Christians have no concept of how their practices and theology have changed over 2000 years. They believe it has been constant and consistent.

I believe the full scale invasion was spurred by Putin's belief the West was collapsing (Brexit, the rise of anti-EU parties, Trump's attacks on NATO, etc.) Was he behind it? Well, he benefited the most, so...

The Old Testament is all about a bunch of people fleeing persecution to find a new home. Unsurprisingly, it is then very specific on how to treat other refugees with welcoming kindness. Then Jesus comes along, the orignal woke. It's hard to miss in the Bible.

As a student, a lecturer mentioned that homicide rates decreased after public executions were halted in the UK. This was before google, but I knew where to find the data, so I decided to prove him wrong. He was right.

What could go wrong with live streaming an execution? Anyone think of any recently botched occurrences? In a weird way this could do more to abolish the death penalty than any well reasoned argument.

If he had a conscience, if he had a sense of shame, or an understanding of consequences we wouldn't be here now. He will still be spitting indignant vitrol as they drag him off to the asylum in a strait jacket. There isn't going to be a crimnal trial. Sorry.

All those more Irish than the Irish with their faux ancestral hatred for the British are surely familiar with the similarities with the execution of James Connolly? Most Irish were not behind the original uprising, but shooting a man in a wheelchair changed that.

If you are getting pleasure out of watching a person being killed, even if it is a legal execution, are you any better than the criminal?

Technically, controlling migration in order to allocate labour to a select group and maintain salaries at a certain level as opposed to letting free market forces free reign is the very definition of socialism.

I'm sure it sounded better in her head. I mean who doesn't despise Paddington? The only thing worse than that is Pooh Bear, or Wind in the Willows, or Peter Rabbit. Uggh!
