Just what is happening in our schools
at 09:06 10 Oct 2025

Much of the RE curriculum is based around empathy and understanding of other viewpoints, including atheism and humanism. It teaches youngsters to be able to articulate and explain why they may agree or not agree with a particular viewpoint in the right way, without the need for antipathy, aggression or violence. Whether we like it or nor, different viewpoints play a part in the communities in which we live and students are given the facts about these viewpoints, without which they may end up watching some of the more divisive stuff online. It should be about education not indoctrination. I agree though, there should be no schools based on faith which just breeds isolation and division. Most good schools will have kids from all sorts of different backgrounds mixing, being friends, playing together and sharing ideas.

What is it with Gary's? Lineker/Neville/Glitter
at 09:43 9 Oct 2025

Oh the irony! 😂😂
Where have I said they don't have the right to reply or to exercise their free speech? I'm all for people saying what they want (within the law) and I'm not one of those who pouts about what's been written or said online or anywhere else. I find the backlash to Neville's comments quite funny.

No irony lost on me or anyone else. I think you've misunderstood my point. Like I said in my reply to mangohill, I absolutely agree with everyone's right to say what they want and that indeed is what free speech is about. I'm not suggesting for a minute they don't have a right of reply, they absolutely do. I'm saying I find it humorous that some of the people who talk about 'woke' 'snowflakes ' etc get all exercised when somebody says something they don't agree with.

Both, they are exercising their right to free speech by banging on. No problem with that at all, they are perfectly entitled to. It just makes me laugh when somebody offers a viewpoint different to their's they go mental, calling for Neville to be sacked etc.

Same as me. I always enjoyed his debates and agreed with some things and disagreed with others. Absolutely heartbreaking for his family and will significantly add to an already divided society in the US.

"It's worrying when you see how the legal system has acted over the past two years'"

How has the legal sysytem acted over the last 2 years?

"Then we have kids haven't to visit mosques and learning all about the Muslim faith , something in isolation as I've never read or heard about school visits to Synagogues being part of the school curriculum"

Schools have done it for years. It's been part of the curriculum where they also learn about Christianity as the main relgion of GB, humanism, atheism etc. As part of this they also learn about tolerance, understanding others views etc. All kids from all sorts of backgrounds have these lessons. I also don't know of any school who has been forced to cancel Christmas or Easter celebarations because of 'multiculturalism'. This is the sort of BS which gets thrown around and taken as read.

I have to say I thought the original post was interesting showing how far we've swung as a country over the last few years. The asumptions inherent in your post speak for themselves. Which views do they hold which are not in alignment? How will this lead to the collapse of the UK? So a couple of Muslims in key positions in the UK is going to be catastrophic? If you'd kept the sentiment of the post and swapped the word 'Muslim' for 'Jewish' there would be outcry of antismemtism - and rightly so. Gwyn has even had to defend a person and point out his excellent credentials to perform his role simply because he is a Muslim. Depressing times.

I should have put a comma between bollocks and poor defending. I thought our general play in the first half was ok and we certainly should have been a couple up. Agree re: the movement up top from midfield.Let's hope we can push on this half and it doesn't become too scrappy.

Two city rugby
at 21:00 11 Aug 2025

I'd agree with all of that. The national academy was also a big factor in developing those players. I think a big reason for the waning interest is that there's no appetite for the URC as a competition coupled with ridiculous ko times. I think 4 regions could contiue to work perfectly well in a Anglo/Welsh or even a British league. Combined with links to the Universities and school 16-18 rugby provison or scholarhsips so that we don't lose the best players to England. Oh, and a proper audit of the WRU's books to see where all the money goes.

Absolute nonsense!

Luckily there are decent people like Stephen Kinsella and his group who don't get nearly enough airtime on this subject whilst muppets like Charlie Mullins are on constantly.

Clarkson was let go after he assaulted a member of his production team because he couldn't get a hot meal after filming. The bloke's a tool.
