Sorry, I assumed that it was a pretty simple point: why do you think that there are particular venues where "visitors reflect on how these things were allowed to happen" when it comes to atrocities which were carried out by the Nazis, but there are no corresponding ones for the much more...

They've been dead for over 100 years - I rather doubt that anyone or anything is going to "disturb" what's left of them. How long should we wait until they're just historical evidence, like "Ötzi"?

And the reason there are no memorials reminding us of the atrocities carried out by the Red Army in Germany after the war, or the mass murders committed by the Communists all over Eastern Europe throughout most of the 20th Century, which far outnumbered the dead of the Holocaust, is because....?

I don't think that the picture says very much, apart from it being more woke tosh. The rescue attempts were a very useful opportunity to test the available technology and techniques, and to see just how far beyond the design limitations they could be pushed if needed. The international...

But not as ridiculous as thinking that cream is going to shift it...... :(

I have a lot of Lidl tools; for the price they're usually fine and the warranty is excellent. However there have been rumours about them pulling out of the tool market for quite some time now and certainly over here the range they've offered over the past 1.5 years has reduced markedly. Being...

Nah, 'course they're real, Guv - just like Santa and my rich Nigerian uncle who's just died.....

Why "now"? Imaginary Friends have been something that most kids grow out of since time immemorial...

Politics is a complete joke nowadays - the only thing people have to complain about is that it's long since ceased to be funny..

The "joke" is that anyone cares about these people, who apparently lack the skills to get a proper job..

Perhaps YOU might benefit from reading the Act. "Vulnerable" people have the right to make their own decisions, and bear the consequences, until they demonstrate that they can't, at which point that right is taken from them. I can't see what making snide digs at other people has to do with the...

They're grown-ups - if they choose to pay no attention to the warnings which we're all bombarded with ad nauseam, then they're either too "vulnerable", or too stupid, to be allowed out on their own with a bank card. Perhaps they shouldn't have a card at all if they can't cope with using it in...

Call me flint-hearted if you will, but I have no intrinsic problem with these scammers - even their "sophisticated" efforts are transparent, and Darwinism indeed keeps those with their wits about them safe. I also would have no objection to them being banged up, or even "disappeared", because...

I did - but I can't understand the modern obsession with vastly overpaid nonentities. Who in their right mind cares what they do, or say? British society has gone completely barmy..

There's a difference between helping yourself from a skip beside the road and from one well inside someone's property. As a general principle, if it's on the pavement/kerbside then it's fair game here. We have "No guns" signs on the entrances to banks/hospitals/various fancy restaurants...

Nuts to that!

Since I'm an immigrant in one of the countries whence some of "our "friends" from elsewhere" hale, I can tell you that it's customary in most civilised parts of Europe to be happy that someone is making use of/recycling/making a living from selling your rubbish/unwanted items. It's bizarre that...

How did you know he was a Bulgarian - there haven't been any in Yambol for years.... :cool:

Your version's funnier...

That has to be the least relevant punchline I've ever seen - I can't imagine these chaps knowing, or caring, about the World Cup. The Five Nations might be more relevant, albeit still unlikely.... :cool:
