In the week in which Lee Rigby was slaughtered, the London press gave airtime to a despicable hate imam who excused the slaughter of that young man by justifying jihad and denouncing the UK government.
Fortunately, in the same week, a study was published exposing the pro-muslim, anti-WesternCiv bias of the BBC, the major UK news outlet, for which Brits must pay an involuntary tax.
You made one of your typical snarks to say "some" of the examples of islam appeasement I gave in my comments -- of Londoners being ordered not to fly their Union Jack or St George flags at their homes or have Piglet wares in their workplaces -- were "nonsense." (And let me further add here that soldiers in London are not allowed to wear their uniforms off-base except on official business, for the same cultural-suicidal reason.)
You could have picked a more neutral word, like "unproven"; you could have diplomatically asked, "Can you link to that?" But nooooo: no matter how irrelevant to the main article, which affects whole nations and by extension, the world economy, your point was your superior knowledge, by virtue of your having been born in one of the Celtic regions, of any news bearing even tangentially on Scotland -- which, by the way, has about as much to do with the neighborhoods of London as Nova Scotia has to do with the neighborhoods of Washington, DC.
So all your backpedaling here has not impressed me that you have learned a thing.
You could rejoice that the truth was told about media bias on BBC.
You could have mourned the contribution of the BBC and UK media's pro-muslim bias to the death of a young father.
But no.
Here's what I've learned: you say you're Scottish.
"Have I denied you an opinion on the UK?. "
Why, yes, you have, in post 28.
when I correct someone about the UK, I always give them as much of the correct information as possible.
Scrolling back, I don't see a thing but your pompous admission that you do not "exchange information", or "add citations", you "correct someone." As we say in South Philadelphia, "Who died and made you God?"

Firstly, thats a comment on piss-poor tabloid stories and tabloid journalism, not an attack on you. You have taken the comment FAR too personally.
Secondly, the uniform advice not order was ripped up within hrs by Cameron. In fact I posted a new thread about it straight away to inform Freepers.
‘Why, yes, you have, in post 28.’
Sarcastic retort to your post, nothing more.
‘As we say in South Philadelphia, “Who died and made you God?”’
As we say in South Ayrshire, ‘what bug crawled up your arse and died?.’.
