There is an easier way of making, say, a military aircraft almost invisible, one that has already being discussed by scientists. The plane is covered in pixcels and is fitted with video cameras looking in different directions.

So the camera looking upwards would film the sky, which would be displayed as a basic TV image on the underside of the…[Read more]

Wasn’t it somewhere in east London that elected Britain’s only ever Communist Party MP in the 1930’s?

children dont hate spontaneously.. its stupid bigots who tech them

Err…. they do in my experience – school bullies, mob bullying etc. I’d say it’s the other way round! Children have an instinctive capacity to hate and it is controlling or diluting this attribute en masse as they grow up that determines how civilised our society is. It’s…[Read more]

Hopefully he will stay in jail for the rest of his life, during which it will probably dawn on him sooner or later what a crazy situation he got himself involved in.

This occurred in a foreign land and is a barbaric form of justice, even if the murdrer deserved to die. China uses the death penalty a lot, as do many other countries including the USA, Russia and almost anywhere in the middle east.

In the European Union we do not have the death penalty and we must be very careful not to allow an exception for…[Read more]

Prison – that’s what Doherty needs – and at least a couple of years. Also from what I’ve seen he was totally talentless anyway. The legacy of punk has a lot to answer!

When people talk about things that have damaged this country in the last 40 years they talk about the hippy era, trade unions, Thatcher/yuppies, new Labour etc. Punk is rarely…[Read more]

I live in an almost 100% white town but loads of Poles have recently moved here!!! Doesn’t seem to be a problem.

He has earned his place in the hall of disgrace alongside Bernard Manning (racist jokes) and Billy Connolly (sick jokes) as a celeb who has overstepped the mark in terms of offensiveness.

We don’t yet hear much about people giving up their computers. Yet there must be a growing number of people who were part of the net-surfing, messaging PC generation but have turned their back on their comps.

Internet: – good and bad.

Biggest problem is amount of time one can spend (my son’s addicted to Runescape, MSN etc.)

Still, I suppose time spent on the internet is often time that would otherwise have been spent watching telly!

When I was young I can remember spending ages just keeping a Scalextric car going round and round to see how long I…[Read more]

How come they’re allowed a website if it’s illegal?

I wondered that. We could start one just as an experiment called PPKM (Pol Pot Kmehr Rouge) and see what happens.

Prescott is our deputy prime minister, though that is something of a courtesy title since Gordon Brown clearly takes precedence.

Politicians having affairs is a non-party matter since Labour, Conservatives, Lib Dems have all had examples. John Major and Edwina Curry had an affair, Paddy Ashdown admitted to having one, as did the late Robin…[Read more]

Communism is the only thing that will save the west!!

(Joking, but on reflection that might be the case!)

If moderate politics fail I guess we’re all susceptible to ‘flipping’ to extremism, whether of a left, right or religious variety. That’s how totalitarians get enough support to gain power.

Political movements always present themselves in ways that attract support through making themselves sound appealing and benign.

Communist governments were masters of this – talking about peoples’ this and peoples’ that while their dictatorial elites built themselves a state within a state – Ceaucescu’s Romania was the prime example – villages…[Read more]

The white guy got a £500 fine and a ban, the asian got £200 fine and 6 points. On the SAME day by the SAME judge……so sorry to get high rate but to me that was about colour against the white man!

Possibly because with motoring offences the fine can be tailored to the wealth of the offender – the white person might have been significantly r…[Read more]

Feminism has now moved on to post-feminism, whatever that is.
Modernist architecture has likewise moved on to post-modernism.

I think we are now entering the post-multiculturalist age (whatever that might mean). However I sense that there is now divergence and distancing between cultures in UK and elsewhere now as the 70’s ‘coffee coloured…[Read more]

How about the name ‘Dealers Patch’ – it has basically the same meaning but with different connotations!!!

The king of Nepal is only king because one of his relations shot the rest of the royal family a few years ago.

As for ‘rightful monarch’ this is all a matter of power. I can declare myself Emperor of the European Union but without any power to back that up it is meaningless!!!

… but if they have some oil i expect America and her puppet could go sort it out

What??? Bordering Chinese-occupied Tibet and about to be taken over by Maoists? More likely Nepal will eventually become part of China like Tibet did than be invaded by the USA.
