Play the comment not the man, otherwise it'd better to be thought a fool than open one's mouth and remove all doubt.Comment

As it is, you didn't counter, or acknowledge my initial point to the article (which I clearly gave) did you?
As for it being a "tautology"; I have only stated my thought on the Guardian (article) once, not twice.Comment

Originally posted by darmstadt View PostSo where do you get your news from then?
But if pushed, I'd go with the thought that MSM outlets can't cover incidences / situations / issues in a couple of hundred words, so I go for interviews and an attempt and in depth analysis over several hours where points are thrashed out in debates etc, hence the well worn saying (not mine), to your initial quote.Comment

I also suspect those in the so called piece have ancestors who have actually given to their various societies unlike the economic migrants coming in.
So the point is null and void when you look at it objectively.Last edited by sasguru; 24 May 2018, 06:40.Hard Brexit now!

And that applies to any ex-colonial society.Comment
