I see in Liverpool, the city council took down all the St George flags yesterday because of the health and safety risk to passers by.

We celebrate St. Patrick's day, haha, at least I do. I have a lot of Irish in my bloodline.

This is interesting, for once the debate isn't between Americans and British members, and it's still getting heated.

 

[ColinEssex]

Does the US has a saints day? Is it a big deal?

St. Henry Ford.

All Americans worship the car, so obviously Henry is their patron saint.

It was also upto the UK goverment to decide how to implement the EU directive

Who's the idiot?

Don't go away we still have unfinished business

 

[chergh]

Who's the idiot?

It's still you. There is nothing in the EU directive about banning national flags on number plates I know you live in Daily Mail land but surely even a simpleton such as yourself can understand such a simple statement. Then again evidently not. Never mind Rich just continue making up your own reality.

It was changed as a result of the EU directive which part do you not understand?

 

[chergh]

It was never allowed in the first place and if it was explicitly banned by the directive they woudln't be able to change it now without first amending the directive at a european level.

 

[Rich]

Yes it was

Henry Ford was not Catholic so it would be difficult (but not impossible) for him to become a saint.

There is a patron saint of the US, which suprized me as this would appear to be a violation of separation of Church and State.
It is the Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus.
Now you know who to pray to bring about their destruction.

 

[Rich]

Virgin, my Aunt Fanny

The Americans are no different from the rest of mankind - we will all bring about our own destruction, personally the sooner the better.

Rich, why do your posts now have a huge space at the end of them?

I don't know
Must have been a fault here somewhere

I don't know

They're gone now.
I was hoping for some profound answer.

I gave the computer a kick, actually there was some spacing that I didn't see in the sig, highlighting it and the backspace button seems to have done it

You're slipping .

Also acceptable would have been:
'It was there to signify the empty promises of the Labour government'
'It was there to represent the WMD that weren't found in Iraq'
etc.

Christ! I'd need a book to list that lot

You could always go over to Tim Brewer's thread.
Any time you need a stress-relieving rant, just type line after line over there. You wouldn't even need to worry about being coherent - should the rage be too much for steady-handed typing - as he's all but ensured no-one reads the posts anyway.
