In fairness it sounds identical.
This chap should apply for citizenship. I don't see why he can't? It's not clear from the article.

I ridiculed my father when he gave me a secondhand shirt from a charity shop as an Xmas present. He looked gutted. Looking back he must've been skint.
I've felt bad ever since and feel really bad now he's gone. I never did apologise.
If you've the chance, make it up to him.

Actually it's only in the US where the barbaric practice of genitial mutilation is observed for non-religious reasons; and contrary to medical advice on the matter, too.

Deadly. Unless Britain had slaves and an Empire a thousand years ago (it didn't), I don't see why this would confuse you.
Africa wasn't conquered and colonised until th late 19th century. Big Ben was already 50 years old when it happened 🤣

And underestimates the fact that men will sleep with any old hog, so all women will always outperform men in that department if they want to.

Bang on the money. The African slave trade dates to antiquity and was instigated by Africans. Slavery in Africa itself had been an endemic for all of recorded history.
Britain stopped it.

And the world's first sky scraper in northern, slave free, USA was 20 years old.
Colonisation of Africa was far more recent than you seem to think, and brief as well, lasting under a century.

You don't need to care, just acknowledge it's the truth.
How this impacts the country is another matter, but denying it's even a thing is it odds with reality.

Little bit of diversity never hurt anyone, but we're getting to a point where it's overtaking native cultures.and peoples. This isn't acceptable.
@AndrewGuilford
Fact check: we do not give the Royals £345m a year or anything even approaching that figure. The Sovereign Grant is based on Crown Revenues. £80m last year.
75% of the Royal Estates operating income is taken by the government (approx £260 last year). That's right: they make £

I've a great relationship with my 17 year-old but my 13 year-old is very much like this and it is depressing.
Fortunately my youngest is six, so I still get to be his hero and overgrown playmate.
@SholaMos1
More patent nonsense. Want me to list black on white murders, many of them racially motivated, that you've never even heard of because the media subdues such reporting?
@narindertweets
For someone who doesn't think themselves a foreigner you've sure used 'you' and 'your' a lot when referring to Britons.
You've also referred to yourself as Indian more than once.
Then there's the flag thing.
What you think and feel, I sense, suggests otherwise.
@narindertweets
Lol, the amount of lefties and minorities outing themselves as the cowards and traitors under that thread is amusing.
And we're told they're as British as we are 🤣
@conservmillen
So glad I now live in the UK, where the absolute worst outcome of such a confrontation would be a fist-fight and I don't have to worry about whether or not someone is packing.

Shame he didn't listen to Churchill, who warned him of this invasion weeks before it was launched. He refused to believe it even when it was happening and sat in stunned silence for days.

Amusingly, she was offended becauee she's British, but then took offence to her hair being moved to reveal her name tag due to 'cultural' reasons, when no Brit would ever take offence to this.
@fesshole
Some of us have worked hard to live a dull life. Spent 20 years on the doors to supplement my income and clear the mortgage. Gave it up 12 months ago and often miss all the drama that came with it, but have my weekends back to spend time with the family and do normal things.
@narindertweets
Do we think it might be for her own good? What kind of life can she expect to live here after that behaviour? She'd never get a minutes peace.
Also, being born somewhere doesn't make you something. It's not just a bit of paper but how you feel. No chance she felt British.

The British Empire isn't Britain.
Will blow your mind to discover that even during its zenith the average Briton knew little about it and cared even less (according to Orwell and many others).

It's just our flag, ya whopper. Bears no relation to anything but that.
By your logic most of the flags on Earth have racist or other problematic connotations...

I've two perfect children, one of whom is off to study law at a Russell Group Uni and one of whom has likely just smashed his GCSEs.
Then we've the youngest, diagnosed with ADHD two years ago, who's an absolute nightmare.
Presumably this owes to our laziness as parents?

Exercise isn't even defined in the article. What sort of exercise? Body building isn't the same as jogging, for example.
Also makes no mention of other lifestyle factors such as diet and alcohol consumption etc.
Unless all variables are accounted for then it's junk data.

No heroes here, and a better analogy would be a cop who became the first cop in history to decide something was morally reprehensible before not only ceasing what they were doing themselves but putting their life and finances on the line to stop others from doing it.

Get a grip. Loads of people own one of those 'fancy cars'. Half my neighbours. It's hardly a Bentley or beyond the common man.
You'll find it's bullet proof and used for security, for obvious reasons.

Jews have lived in the region continuously for over 3,000 years. It's their ancient homeland.
Arabs conquered and colonised it so are no better.
Arabs were twice offered the better end of the two state solution but rejected it and chose war. Again and again.

Ah, looking at the scoreline rather than who's causing the issue/ violence.
Not Israel's fault it's better at conflict. Palestine needs to wind its neck in.

Same. Young women, and especially one's with blue hair, also tend to spout rubbish. In fact, most audience members do, along with most of the panel.
The whole thing is a waste of time.
@BladeoftheS
Don't talk shite. Australia is the other side of the planet. Between travel there and back (48 hours minimum) and time it takes to adjust for time difference it's a minimum five day commitment to watch a 90 minute game, and one which will mess your body clock. Absurd expectation.

I'm certainly not a homophobe and have gay family and friends to prove it. However, I hate being compelled to do anything, never mind if it conflicts with any other beliefs I may have.
If someone has to be compelled to do something then that's not acceptance. It's fascism.

Issue wasn't that she told her to get off the pavement - the issue was that she forced her off of the SHARED pavement into an oncoming car when there was plenty of room for both to pass one another without incident.
