Most of the Greek Islands are stunning. The least touristy island of any size is Kefalonia - where Captain Corelli's Mandolin was filmed. It's cheap as chips, there's a ban on buildings over 2 stories tall and they also like the British - which is quite a rarity in most of Europe. Something to do with the Royal Navy being on hand during the 1953 mega earthquake and proving to be quite useful, so I'm told. Give it a miss if you happen to be from Der Fatherland, watch the film and you'll understand.

I do recall this coming up at a meeting once. The whole place rolled up with laughter when one old dear commented: "Oh no - I don't fancy that!"

Email from JW relative/elder
by Lynnie inas much as i enjoy you and pete's company, you also know our understanding of how much we want you to be reunited with jehovah and his people.. .
we did not set the standards for what jehovah says about our associations with those who choose to not serve him.
so we will always be there for you and pete, but it is in your hands as to how we can enjoy your friendship.. .

Just recalling some dialogue with my own JW parents some years ago.
Them: "You chose to leave Jehovah's witnesses!"
Me: "I didn't choose to be raised as one!"

What Do You Think About Organized Sit Ins That Are Disruptive?
by minimus inmarches, sit ins, traffic blocking is the new normal for people to demonstrate.
they block highways, state buildings and roadways.
they may even get arrested but invariably get turned loose by the courts.. i think it’s disgraceful to demonstrate this way.

Apparently, if you feel really, really strongly about something, then it's perfectly acceptable for you to behave like a total moron and fuck up people's lives just to get your point across.

Boris is duplicitous but Corbyn is an enemy of everything I hold dear.
Corbyn's default position is that the UK are always the bad guys. Always. He doesn't like his own country much. He doesn't realise that the working-class folk that he wants to appeal to are mainly patriots. So he's going to lose their votes too. Basically he appeals to armchair liberals who are anxious to be seen as desperately worried about poverty while sitting around their Noguchi coffee tables convinced that somehow they have the moral high ground all to themselves.

Ignore the will of the British people by blocking the result of the referendum and Boris is what you get.

What REALLY defines a person as being anti-Semitic?
by The Fall Guy indoes criticism or opposition to the israeli government's zionist agenda legitimately constitute someone being branded as an anti-semite?.
is it this definition which is actually being targetted at certain members of the labour party?

According to the Sunday Times, the problem with anti-semitism in the Labour party only reached it's present levels when Labour threw open the doors to membership of the party to anyone who could afford the £3 fee. It's rumoured that many of those new members were in fact muslims, so I guess that could explain a lot.
