    That's what makes you weird.

    Or maybe it's weird that the feelings of some Brexit supporters in wanting to highlight certain people as "bad" based on their religion or skin colour is a lot closer to Germany in the 1930s than to Europe 90 years later.

    It's almost like you want to bring up Germany's terrible past, while complaining about anyone who dares mention that some parts of Britain's glorious past aren't so glorious.

    no I'm pointing out calling all Brexiteers racist is even less accurate than accusing all remianers of loving Fascists.

    As posted above there are surely some racist Brexiteers just as there are surely some racist remoaners - you lot trying to turn it into some moral crusade is the weird bit!

    Also past & present you might want to have a look at what Germany did to Belgium in WWI 25 years before they did it again in Poland etc in WWII. We even gave it a cool name:

    Rape of Belgium - Wikipedia

    Frankly IMHO if it hadn't been for Robert Oppenheimer we would still be duking it out every few years.

    Countries stopped invading other large countries because we all got a megaton sized stick to carry. Everything else is dressing.

      Who said anything about being sacked? Suspended was the word, there is a big difference you know. If an executive of a large company was accused, I think you'll find he would be suspended or as it is quaintly put, 'put on gardening leave.' How about the number of sportspeople who have been accused and are immediately suspended until it has been sorted? Why hasn't this person been suspended? Does he have some kind of immunity that others don't?
      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.

        OK suspended then?

        As a contractor you are unlikely to be paid so for you it is effectively sacked. I doubt they would renew either way after such an accusation.

          What about an MP?

              I've not been following this case closely, but I would expect that if the accusation was made by an employee of the client, they would at least suspend you (your contract).

                So would Darmy be happy with that? I just want to know if he would feel it was just if he suffered the same fate?

                Everyone seems to want blood but its always different when it is they who are bleeding.

                  Yes, of course. Don't worry your pretty little head about it.

                    You first, why isn't he being suspended as has happened in previous?

                      I see I have to repeat myself. The Whip decided not to, based probably on knowledge we don't have.

                      I ask again so would your suspension/firing based on an unproven accusation be ok?
