| On an idle thought I wonder what an Irish Air Force roundel would look like? Green, white, and orange in a circle or would they go with a green roundel with a harp in it? :?: The Republic of Ireland does have an air force. http://www.combataircraft.com/roundels/ei.jpg The Irish Air ... |

| Ireland's colonial master, the British Empire, had killed thousands of Irishmen and had devastated Ireland in the 1920s in a brutal campaign against Irish independence. Rubbish. It was the Irish Civil War which devastated Ireland in the 1920s. It was fought between those forces who were pro-Anglo-I... |

| He fought him for 30 seconds after giving him the R. Lee Ermey treatment for 20 minutes. And if you believe that you believe anything. There is something very fishy about this whole debacle. At first, the BBC reported it as a "fracas" and anyone who witnessed it who has spoken to the medi... |

| Might want out so they can move to a different channel. May and Hammond have already said if Clarkson is gone so are they, they'll all just move. That show probably makes BBC more money by itself than everything netflix has combined. A lot of channels will clamber after them. I think May has said h... |

And Jeremy has said many times before that he thinks Yank cars are cr... |

Of course, the world goes mad for Canadian cars, whereas they hate Aston Martins, Rolls-Royces and Jaguars, don't they? It's also time the Left stopped being "of... |
