I was reading a news article on the BBC website regarding foreign investors avoiding Belfast, costing Northern Ireland jobs, because of the riots when a thought struck me. The rioters may not be overly concerned about a few hundred (or even thousands of)… more »
Defining Loyalism
Given the assault on our nation currently being carried out by packs of inbred morons across Belfast, I'm more disgusted than ever with the scum who call themselves loyalists. All but a few of these 'loyalists' support violence and/or the paramilitaries.… more »

Adair Up In Court
Even in England it seems the venerable Mr Adair can't keep his nose clean. The BBC reports that he's due up in court along with a friend in Bolton today over an incident on Monday. It's not clear what the charge is from the BBC report but the way I read… more »
Girl Power Gone Too Far
Quoted in the Independent today, Michael Buerk suggests that men are being marginalised in the British media, citing the BBC specifically, and claims that the result is that men are becoming more effeminate. I'm just surprised this is news, although perh… more »
