I'm just short of 5 years in España CIMAN, it has been good for my levels of tolerance, perhaps the most liberal democracy in Europe its wonderful after 64 years in a hate-riddled shytehole. I suspect I am a better man for the experience, tolerance is a great thing.CIMANFOREVER wrote: ↑Sun Apr 23, 2023 7:23 pmAstonishingly genteel riposte from ye Why can't anti woke equal moderate?BaggyTrousers wrote: ↑Sun Apr 23, 2023 4:44 pmAch my friend one can't please everyone all the time. I assume being an anti-Wokist you would also ban abortion after 6 weeks and deny the elected weemin of Missouri the Right to Bare Arms? I regret it also seems possible you may hate the idea of the prosperity that a border in the Irish Sea AKA Don't bother yer hole checking stuff coming from UK, AKA who cares if a wee bit gets smuggled - or a huge hape. In the, pre-BReakfast AKA BRexit , wise words of Guy Verhofstadt the most workable solution to the NI Border is "a blind eye". Old Guy is no mug and as WOKE as Feck.CIMANFOREVER wrote: ↑Sun Apr 23, 2023 2:52 pmBaggy, I'm often in agreement with you, but the Rightwing turd bit ref hating the concept of woke is ballix.

It's a word that is fashionable to hate if you are a growling rightwing turd, my only issue with WOKE is that it doesn't appeal to my ear, people being WOKE gives me no problem and I say that as a feminist socialist who as our Aussie friends, the feckin' crims, would say believe everyone is entitled to a "Fair Go", no more, no less.
Let's see;
1. No- current UK law is fine, but neither should the process be a cause for celebration. I'm assume you're talking about UK Law rather than the shambles of reversal of Row versus Wade which I disagree with. Counter to that abortion in the mind of some Yanks to point of birth ffs? Downs syndrome fetus aborted to point of birth in UK? Appalling. Woman's right to determination inviolate, I have issues with what I've outlined above. Surely reasonable.
2. I support the second amendment for Weemen everywhere to shoot abusive spouses. If youre talking about Row Vs Wade I refer you to point 1.
3. Green lane fine for me. Sure smuggling is a way of life at Cullaville and Cullyhanna- so a bit more into EU isn't going to make a difference and reduce the acid washings polluting every river in Louth.
4. Gee is as woke as Nigel , and both should be ignored. Business always finds a way, regardless of Dupers or Shinners
The right to bare arms was a small wordplay. Those liberal men in the Senate house in Missouri have voted that females of the species should have their arms fully covered whilst in the legislature. Hence the right to Bare Arms as distinct from the Right to Bear Arms. Missouri Senate - a kind of Redneck Talibán.
Back with Woke, my dislike of the anti-Wokists is mainly based on right-wing USA dullards who really are despicable. The overturning of Roe V Wade absolutely several steps back in time, old white men ruling weemin's bodies. Ironically Ron De SantaClaus in Florida would love to encourage the states weemin to be well-shod and pregnant BUT only if they are white, he has no time for more Latinos and people darker than his tan.
Have to say I'm out of touch with the UK, I have nothing but derision for the place post-breakfast. From a distance it appears to be in a parlous state.
Be good.
