Would imagine that was this... http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/metro-yob-attack-ruhi-rehman-10491688 Bunch of lads asked him (no doubt politely) to leave the train, which he appears to have done.

5live saying that Russia has been murdering innocents in Turkmenistan??.....anything in that @@Park Life ?.... If the Turks pulled this shit off their own backs then they're cheeky fuckers....if NATO put them up to it then it's virtually an act of war...

I think that's whats known in the sort of tory spin speak you lap up like a fuckin labrador puppy as "fudged"

I'd like to leave them a health service free at the point of delivery. Theyre running it into the ground so they can privitise it iyam. Maybe with the help of some of these MP's... (list from before last years election but I think we can see a pattern here )

I've noticed most companies I've contracted to lately are stacked out to be fair. The order book for my present company runs to the middle of 2017. However, I've also noticed quite a lot of this... http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/nov/22/tories-autumn-statement-george-osborne Not that you give a flying fuck...

Here's some light reading to brighten a Monday morning.... http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2015/03/what-isis-really-wants/384980/

Certainly is, but as someone said I'd only heard Matador and a couple of others this year. Went to see him in an old church hall on Thursday night, he mentioned the awards in passing towards the end and got a predictably huge cheer, I saw a mate in the pub afterwards and we agreed he had no fuckin chance, sad to say we were right He was brilliant btw, just him, a few guitars, a keyboard and a beat box/sampler thingy. Also played Moving and a rioutous Caught by the Fuzz as an encore. I think Matador beats the shit out of his previous solo offering and for me he remains an huge talent.

Its certainly is, its the nowadays lesser spotted DubiousBobcat, he was living up the road from me and I was going to see his band but he seems to have dropped off the TT radar.

Nice. You still in Kinson mate?

Very much this. Am struggling through Touching Distance at the moment. Every time I pick the thing up I end up fuckin fuming and put it down after a couple of chapters when I compare then to now. I understand things have changed in football overall in the two decades since but ffs the club is a fuckin husk. Theres nothing in it of any substance.
-
Am presuming you mean Shia v Sunni?...completely agree, and that's the one reason we stopped short of removing saddam in 1991, he was a necessary monster in that particular region. It also makes the decision to invade a decade later even more ludicrous. The west could've "managed" his successor a lot easier when he eventually left the scene if they hadn't intentionally set the two factions against each other in an entirely predictable way.
-
True, but have the wars we've prosecuted in the last decade been the Islamists chief recruiting tool? That's been ignored in this debate so far and for me it's very important.

Aye Barca. Strange night, Shola scored in the Nou Camp They were a pretty poor outfit at the time, Riquelme, Mendieta,Kluivert, all past their best. Dyer will always have my contempt for banging one of the nails into Sir Bob's SJP coffin. In a way though it was blown out of all proportion by the media. I doubt if hes the first player to tell the manager where he wants to play. I don't think hes the biggest tosser to play for us recently either, as well as being amongst the best, when his plasticine hamstrings weren't giving him gip.

Indeed. What's the exact relationship between the UAE government and Man City? Is that mansoor gadgie doing all the good works off his own bat or is some or all of it direct from the governments coffers?

Shit got real with Scargill-haired Murdoch lackey Andrew Neil on his talk show last night.... http://www.snappytv.com/tc/1036780

Normally I'd agree but I don't think it's fair or in particularly good taste to start picking on Islam or it's plainly moderate and sensible followers 4 days after a bunch of oxygen thrives hijacked the belief system of 1.5bllion mostly reasonable and blameless followers and murdered 130 people. Aimaad has made some very thoughtful and pertinent contributions and didn't really deserve a grilling from the fuckin Geordie Inquisition.

Happy birthday to the other Lion of Gosforth

Weeeelllll..... Say if aimaad was a work colleague and you were quizzing him about his beliefs and openly laughed in front of witnesses about some of them and somebody reported it. You'd be on a spot of bother with HR at the very least. I know this is the Internet and this does sound very pious and PC but it proves a point in a way. The road to real trouble between communities starts with this sort of small time stuff. Of course it begs a much bigger question, should we tolerate intolerance?...it's tricky, it's the line between freedom of speech and respect for any religion. You don't respect Islam, fair enough, but the right to religious expression is enshrined in EU and UN conventions.
-
Am wondering if you're aware of how close you are to mocking aimaads religion here? It's ok, am not offended am am not intending on taking offence on behalf of aimaad himself. Are you just taking the piss out of his beliefs as an excercise in freedom of speech, because of the events of Friday night (which as several posters in this thread have tried to explain has fairly little to do with mainstream Islam in general) or because he's a lone voice on here 1000s of miles away on the end of a broadband connection? Mixture of all 3?... Fwiw I tend to agree with a lot of what you say but phrasing it in the manner you're doing is abusing the freedom of speech you appear to be claiming full rights to here. With those rights comes the responsibility to use them carefully and taking the piss out of the single(?) poster on here who can give real insight into how mainstream Moslems think is for me abusing that right as much as you're abusing aimaads beliefs.
