Fullerene Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 1 hour ago, MarkCuq said: What is the difference between imperialism and colonialism? Imperialism involves control of other countries. Colonialism involves the same but also includes settlements to enforce this control. Thus you can talk of American imperialism even if there are no American settlements. Compare that to British settlements in former countries that Britain controlled. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Apparently Ian Blackford is to be taken to court over his photography tweet.... no really. In yoon land, they're convinced this is going to happen. You can get away with bullying your staff face to face in the work place in Britain.... but retweeting somebody asking them why they're doing what they're doing? Serious business. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt Nicola will already have something in the SNP WhatsApp chat setting out the need to form a square around the Bunter. That's the sort of decisive decisive action a leader should be taking at this time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coprolite Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 23 hours ago, doulikefish said: So public sector wage freeze and the gammons are in raptures because foreign aid has been cut Austerity is Back! Yay. I had 9 years of public sector pay "restraint" followed by freeze to 2017, with increased pension contributions which reduced my take home by 10% in real terms despite getting a major promotion in that time. I no longer work in the public sector thankfully . The civil sevice got an actual payrise last year, but not nearly enough to catch up. There is basically no fat left to trim. As a real terms cut this is fiscal tightening during a recession and is ridiculously stupid from an economic perspective. From the perspective of keeping the gammon mob happy it works though. I saw a comment somewhere the other day about it being fair because sir Humphreys and their gold plated pensions. The usual media pseudo sages will lap it up though because they are too thick to know any better. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 In this case I expect the timing was just opportunistic and nothing to do with wider politics, the Israelis have been assassinating Iranian scientists for decades, it comes with the job, especially if they suspect the work they're doing is military related. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
