Not at all. Although I will clearly take issue with that sort of stupid comment.
the last time I checked which country I was sitting in, people were allowed to hold differing views, and to express them. Maybe you spent a little bit too much time in the mob and have forgotten that?

But I’ve been a civvie far longer than I was not. Three times as long, in fact.
Thanks Nutloose for drawing attention to this fine young man.
I hope this thread gets donations added to his £25K for the RAF Benevolent Fund..
Thread title made 6,500+ (at present) read the thread and I thought it was amusing clickbait. (However I know many don't share my sense of humour)- I'm still awaiting Buster's riposte though.
We are all aware of how headlines often distort facts to draw you in. My 'favourite' recent one being this from the Portsmouth News:
Which translates as "‘Following a minor issue with an internal system on HMS Prince of Wales the ship’s company were required to remove a small volume of water from (one compartment of) the ship."

Why don’t you let everyone know that you were once banned because of the nastiness and vitriol you used towards me?
I disagreed with your title for the thread, that’s all. Unfortunately, you don’t seem to be able see that and just accept that some people have a different view. Clearly you also have a few fanboys. But equally, a few people shared similar views to mine. The way of the world.
