Robinson's 'retirement' from the EDL has always been half-hearted at best. Apparently, it was Robinson himself that secretly recorded the meeting and passed it on to the Mail.

Bizarrely entertaining as usual from over the Atlantic. I've always been curious, perhaps an American would be kind enough to enlighten me. Do you believe the majority of the congressmen that deny global warming, really don't believe it to be happening; or are they publically fighting against a...

That could be changed, but euro-sceptics wouldn't want it changed. It gives them a nice little club to use against their opponents. I think must British people who want to leave the EU would admit that their problem with it is not the current conception or formation of the Union itself. In their...

Harris points out that the different precepts of religions have different effects on the actions of their believers. While some encourage actions and beliefs that are extremely harmful to human rights and humanity as a whole (ie. Islam) the effects of others are notably less harmful (Harris...

I guess I’ll offer my advice as an English guy who has spent a considerable amount of time learning Chinese. I’ll generally stick to answering your second question. I lived in China a few years, learned Chinese and now I’m working as an interpreter/translator. Obviously being...

Perhaps it is just because I don't live in America? Besides I'm not claiming that sexism does not exist. It very obviously does as evidenced by the pay gap between men and women in many jobs. The point is that because of feminists concentrating on something that actually mattered, and...

Struggling simply in the sense that women are doing better than men academically. No moral judgement implied. I was of course referring to modern western society. There are obviously plenty of religious fanatics whose attitudes are backwards. I have never met anyone who has had an issue with...

Oh I understand their argument, how could anyone manage to avoid it (they are really quite loud). Its perfectly possible for some women to be taken seriously as political and business leaders while at same time some women are seen as 'sex objects'. It could be the same women at different times...

I think Quakers is correct in that the seemingly rather prudish demands and frankly bizarre rhetoric of those people who most noisily proclaim themselves as feminists is what most makes people repel from the label itself. If feminism means: -equal wages as men in the same job -equality...

Masada, I really don't care if you would like to label me a white supremacist. It makes no difference to me. The situation in South Africa is rarely reported on by the respectable media. (If simply referencing a bbc article on the subject is enough to be linked to white supremacism then it's not...

Indeed. Guilty as charged. Anyway perhaps it was in bad taste of me to make these points in a remembrance thread.

[/QUOTE="Masada;12946283"]I didn't know we had so many white supremacists on CFC. Sounds like an anecdote to me. Can you please provide some actual, you know, data.! The story was included within a BBC article I linked to. Now I know the BBC has had its problems recently but hopefully the...

Formaldehyde, I'm not sure that what you've posted in any way contradicts what I said.

Thats only true for a part of the white population there (though a large part). Having a lot of money in your wallet isn't much consolation when you've just been shot in the neck or your daughter has been raped. White South Africans are the subject of a rather brutal and effective campaign to...

Yes like I said he was great man. I'm not certain he chose the policy of reconciliation because he believed it was morally correct or because he believed it the best was to secure a peaceful handover from the white ruling class to the ANC. Either way it doesn't matter. He won. His people, the...
