St Pauli
Stuka I bet I'm more left wing than you St. Pauli. I once wrote a piece for the Socialist Alliance newspaper and I'm a vegetarian.


If you're talking about the organisation I'm thinking of, I'm amazed they had a paper, given it was made up of trot groups all desperate to sell their own rag. I once wrote a letter to Socialist Worker to see whether they made them up or not, and it got published. Oh and if you're genuine about being veggie, you are more left wing. I love meat and couldn't really give a phuck about animal rights.


I once had a letter published in Pro Wrestling Illustrated.

Libertine So does this dude get offended when watching Monty Python and the Holy Grail? They look to be wearing the same kind of outfits to me. :roll:

Do you peeps get offended when Americans get dressed up in Revolutionary War costumes and reenact battles around the time of each 4th of July? And we got over the fact that you burnt our capitol to the ground during the following war.

People need to lighten up...


War of Independence was a civil war. Thousands of colonists were loyal to the crown. Plus it was only the French who tipped the balance in favour of the colinists. Pretty ironic that the nation now known as the USA call French the enemies of freedom when it was them who enabled creation of the US in the first place.

Nothing to report. I'm a bit disappointed with myself, tbh.

Hmmmm

Being offended by something seems to be one of the worst crimes that anybody can commit nowadays.

Potential spin-off thread could be 'Where have you been published?'

To our dear Muslim friend.

This is England, it is part of our history. Accept it or fook off out the country.

You're a clever chap who can think outside the box, I trust you can work it out soon enough.

Are you suggesting anything we have done outside British soil should not be included in our history or heritage?

From the masthead of the Daily Express to the fancy dress costumes of the supporters of our national team, we owe much to the Crusaders of yore.
