Sure, but has this always been the case across the millennia?

This is Dr Hargey telling BBC Presenter John Ware about the meaning of the word ‘Kuffar’.

The clip is taken from the BBC’s programme A Question of Leadership, made shortly after the 7/7 bombings....

Well, if you say so.

I have no specialist knowledge of geology or geography, but surely that’s quite a sweeping statement considering the time span. The flood need not have covered the entire...

Fascinating maybe, but in no way uplifting. Onward, but seldom upward.

Yes, the problems occur when trying to convert one to the other.

Best to stick to one method of measurement. Like with metric and imperial – I still prefer feet and inches, so it’s a pain having...

Inappropriate use of the apostrophe – fined £5 – you have to send it straight to the current treasurer. (It’s new fundraising initiative, and helps towards more grammatically correct speech, written...

I knew nothing of the Musa case until now, Jackie. Reading up on it all at the moment.

However, I do know that Christopher Booker is one of the few journalists with any integrity. If he’s taken...

Unusual for the BBC to make such an admission – their Home editor, Mark Easton stated (it’s in your post #82 above):

“Hundreds of children and young people have suffered - their almost...

And nothing to do with race, remember.

“Sirius” – This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim with Yekra, LLC. Must have happened earlier this evening. Shame, I was just about to sit through it.

Very well, Lily, I will try. However, if I don’t measure up to your standards, are you of a mind to impose some kind of penalty? I believe I have a right to know.



Any poster on this forum has...

In that case, I apologise. Try this, regarding your accusation in post #1826:



Could you give examples of this posters ‘rudeness’? It’s not clear what you take to be rude behaviour.

The fact that you don’t see a thing does not mean it doesn’t exist. I think there is thought-provoking content in this post. It’s my opinion, and it is the equal of yours.



I disagree. I...

Such a serious-looking academic, he cannot be real.

I was told years ago it’s possible to identify left wing loons by their facial bone structure, and I’ve been intrigued by this notion ever...

Result! I share your enthusiasm.



I hope the councillors who replace them start to make a difference.

I understand the point you’re making, Cally, but Sharon was an unusual case. Even the opposition parties agreed Sharon was an exceptionally good Councillor, and a lady of integrity. They had a great...

To be honest, Jackie, I think it’s looking to have its ear-hole scratched more than anything. I mean the dog, not the toddler. Good job it’s a labrador-type, good natured and peaceful.

I get the...

Why Lily, you old rascal!

During our last brief encounter, you were asserting that I commented on Blue Fox’s video production values while ignoring the content. And here you are doing something...

Yes, it’s a decisive one, far more significant than just a protest vote. The three-party system will recognise yesterday’s strong public revolt against it. This sort of result anywhere in Kent is not...

Haunting song. My word, isn't he good? I can't remember being so smitten by a piece of music being so beautifully sung. The human voice is, of course, by far the most wonderfully versatile instrument...

Now isn’t that amazing? Obviously it’s funny as well, but I think the dog is definitely responding to what it regards as an intriguing harmonic. IMO the TV’s visuals are secondary, it’s the singing...

Well I'll be a blue-nosed gopher! Please say that isn't true.

I've never watched those talent programmes, but have seen enough snippets to know what they're about. By all accounts, they do...

I did enjoy that, Jackie. Makes a refreshing change from many of the music clips posted across the forum lately.

It’s not an easy song to sing, you need to be very careful about pitch, so I...

So why do you post here - I mean, what do you get out of it?

(The reason I asked about your flurry of activity is it's this inconsistent behaviour that's significant. I won't go into detail, it...

Well, I'm not actually a member of a party at the mo. So no, I don't lose anything. But you chaps shouting about how wonderful your BNP is, you are the losers. Can you get your head around that?
