Watched a music channel and I see Girls Aloud are back together, what a bunch of utterly untalented, washed up idiots. Wonder how long they'll last? 2 months before chucking the towel in because they are shite.

Probably the person you'd least expect that comment to come from too hahaha.

Being a cultural philistine helps.

What?

Riots started a few days ago over the right to fly the Union Jack in Northern Ireland. The Unionists feel like they are losing their identity. But of course it goes much deeper than that. Unemployment rates are rising and everything that has happened in the last century, is still felt strongly.

Ok, I am not very familiar with the situation. What does the flag have to do with it? Why cant it be used in public building of NI?

The city council of Belfast voted for Union Jack to be flown only for 15 days a year. The Union flag is seen as a very British thing and a lot of Irish nationalists believe that it is a symbol of English imperialism. But of course in Belfast there are a lot of Unionists and they are angered by the ban because they think it marginalises them. Northern Ireland is a part of the United Kingdom whereas the Republic of Ireland is independant of the UK. It all started about 100 or so years ago when the English occupied Ireland. For a while the Irish were pissed off but some started thinking that being apart of the UK was a good thing and so The Trouble began and Irish people started killing eachother over whether or not they are British.

LOL

The guy could buy Roman's 200ft Yatch and still manage to donate 250million.

He could end hunger in an Africa country for 1 year with this amount of money.

Plain Stupid, 25% of his fortune on an Airbus!

These people are completely out of touch with reality. I'd love to see how they'd survive on minimum wage for a month...They'd probably die without people to buy and cook their food or wipe their arse's.

Sometimes I when I turn to pray to Mecca like that billionare Saudi prince, I pray for Mourinho to be fired by Perez amongst other things. I bet he prays for another cavier sandwhich with nonalcoholic champane that he can eat and drink from a virgin's thighs.
