      My god, it just gets worse, your lack of understanding of race issues is bordering on verbal violence. Other milkshakes are available...my god are you now referring to people of colour as various flavours of milk.

      Mods, get onto this now. Verbal violence is just as bad as actual violence.

        Depends on your point of view. For the offshore foreign owners of Greybull they’ve made loads of dosh from inflated interest payments and management fees.

          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                  OMG and now you are making fun of people with mental issues. Is there no depth to the depravity allowed on this forum.

                    Funnily enough I was saying the same thing last night when I was volunteering at the LGBT homeless shelter. I had just finished picking the nits out of the hair of an elderly trans lady called Shakira, she had just commented that I do so much for people in need. I said gosh I hope when I tell people about my charity work they don't think I'm virtue signalling.
                    You know what Shakira said? She said you are a living saint. Then with tears down her eyes she said anyone that says you are virtue signalling, I will shank them, with my size 10 Gucci heals.

                    I thought, that was quite sweet. I didn't have the heart to tell her that her Gucci heals are knock off. I could tell by the stitching. I rescued a number of child workers from a Gucci factory in India and found them jobs in the local community, teaching ex-convicts how to make shoes. So, as you could imagine I'm quite the expert on shoes.
