“They should not have called her that - they should have used a euphemism.”

“UK Land Area = 0.16% of the world, so we should take 1,517 based on area
UK Population = 0.9% of the world, so we should take 8,286 based on population
UK GDP = 2.8% of the world, so we should take 25,833 based on wealth

“Gosh! And did you hear that Joe Blogs has left the Labour Party to join the Lib Dems because he was criticised for being too Posh?

I mean, important, news about the mainstream - but not a line about it anywhere. Why do news outlets suppress these stories and focus only on the minor parties?

“As well they should apologise! How dare they want to help patch up wonded children or feed homeless orphans? What were they thinking? Didn't they realise that these children are all semites?”

“Quite right. It is a homicide. The people who shipped this container shoulld be held responsible and everyone who was inside the container should be considered a co-conspirator - an accessory before, during and after the fact.
