Why would Spain withdraw? They didn't from Qatar or Russia...

Petitions, the times we live in all sorts of factors. The number one cause of child death in 2018 wasn't Russia and in 2022 it wasn't Qatar either.

You know, you must have seen it? You work with someone (for example) they say all the right things at work and then you go out for a drink at Christmas and 3 pints in the inner them comes out.


Surely we all know people like that?

Well, I’ve no idea what the leading cause was, but in 2023 the country with the highest level of under 5 deaths pro rata was Niger.

Oh the Christmas drink types. I don’t go out with folk I don’t go out with people just because it’s Christmas.
As I say when asked about what I’m doing on Valentines Day, and it’s usually nothing special because I treat my missus well all year when I want to, and not just once a year, so if I like having a drink with a work colleague I’ll do it all year when it suits, not just when all the bastards converge once a year usually in December.
Makes sense to me but usually leaves others looking horrified or confused

It's part of my remit, I take the staff out at Christmas. I go out of duty, not choice. It's the same for them I guess.


That wasn't my point though. Some people are less likely to be racist if there was some kind of outing of their behaviour...because they know it's wrong and wouldn't want to get shown up for it. Others don't give a toss and would carry on anyway
Replying to Miguelagonn   16:24, Sun 1 Mar
Yeah I get that.
Btw was the person on the Christmas drinks poo thing outed over what they said?
Not judging btw just interested because outing them in that situation isn’t always as easy as it seems

That's sad but it isn't "double the peak rates of child mortality that was experienced in Rwanda at the height of the 1994 genocide", which is what has occurred in the occupied territories during 2024 and 2025

Do you really think a professional footballer with a game on the horizon would go without water or food on the day ? I don't think they would.

Maybe people hold back on their opinions a lot of the time because we are living in times where being uncomfortable about and unsupportive of a conquest/violence-based ideology (which has nothing to do with race) is twisted into 'racism'? Like has happened more than once in this thread? And if many other things also get twisted around in that manner and this is trickling down from the state, then it's no wonder really, is it?

Flag shagging, little englanders, who probably think it's a sign that Islam wants to take over the UK. People like this is why we have people like Farage.

I don't think Farage is linked to Leeds but it's an interesting way to throw politics into something that really didn't need it.

I am 95% certain we had "flag shaggers" before Farage,don't think he invented that
