Perhaps, but equally a man who has decided incorrectly that he has been accused of something would be big enough to realise that and move on, no?

I think he did move on


but pointing out that today you are posting overly-aggressive posts on multiple threads on a lovely spring day is unrelated to the previous incident


But again, instead of taking a breath and going "am I?" you barely pause before saying "am I fook!" and plough on regardless


just chill a bit is all people are saying

By calling me names he's moved on? Ok right. Clearly I'm the one who needs to chill

If you must know I sent him a polite PM asking to lay off the name calling nad he said that I hadn't apologised, again I've not accused the man of anything, and that I had spoilt his enjoyment of the forum and "to do one". Don't say I didn'y at least try.

over the years I have had my share of run ins with our quids - and one thing I've learned is that if he believes he is being accused of racism it aggravates him mightily


I remember one thread where he deemed something I wrote to be accusatory along those lines - and when I reread it I saw why. And publicy apologised to him on the forum. Job done. Line drawn


leaving you and he aside - as a general rule, if it kicks off publicly on a thread between people, then I think amends have to be public as well. Otherwise yer average reader is going to have a different impression of what went down

Surely PD best just to apologise for what was perhaps a misunderstanding and move on?

In order to set matters, hopefully, right I apologise to ???? for the incident. I certainly wasn't referring to him as a racist, nor was I trying to offend him. Not sure what else I can say.

I missed last nights match, but all the comments I was reading on the beeb basically said Arsenal had 10 men fighting bravely, and they had Ozil.


He has undoubted quality, and I know you didn't buy him to stick his boot in, but you must be a bit concerned about his apparent lack of interest or fight.

Convened by The Hague Group and co-chaired by the governments of Colombia and South Africa, the Emergency Conference on Palestine brought together 30 states for two days of intensive deliberation — and emerged with a concrete, coordinated six-point plan to restrain Israel’s war machine and uphold international law. States took up the call from their host, Colombian President and Progressive International Council Member Gustavo Petro, who had urged them to be “protagonists together.” Twelve governments signed onto the measures immediately. The rest now have a deadline: 20 September 2025, on the eve of the United Nations General Assembly. The unprecedented six measures commit states to:     Prevent military and dual use exports to Israel.     Refuse Israeli weapons transfers at their ports.     Prevent vessels carrying weapons to Israel under their national flags.     Review all public contracts to prevent public institutions and funds from supporting Israel’s illegal occupation.     Pursue justice for international crimes.     Support universal jurisdiction to hold perpetrators accountable. “We came to Bogotá to make history — and we did,” said Colombian President Gustavo Petro. “Together, we have begun the work of ending the era of impunity. These measures show that we will no longer allow international law to be treated as optional, or Palestinian life as disposable.” The measures are not symbolic. They are grounded in binding obligations under international law — including the International Court of Justice’s July 2024 advisory opinion declaring Israel’s occupation unlawful, and September 2024’s UN General Assembly Resolution ES-10/24, which gave states a 12-month deadline to act. UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory Francesca Albanese called them “a momentous step forward.” “The Hague Group was born to advance international law in an era of impunity,” said South Africa’s Foreign Minister, Ronald Lamola. “The measures adopted in Bogotá show that we are serious — and that coordinated state action is possible.” The response from Washington was swift — and revealing. In a threatening statement to journalists, a US State Department spokesperson accused The Hague Group of “seeking to isolate Israel” and warned that the US would “aggressively defend our interests, our military, and our allies, including Israel, from such coordinated legal and diplomatic” actions. But instead of deterring action, the threats have only clarified the stakes. In Bogotá, states did not flinch. They acted — and they invite the world to join them. The deadline for further states to take up the measures is now two months away. And with it, the pressure is mounting for governments across the world — from Brazil to Ireland, Chile to Spain — to match words with action. As Albanese said, “the clock is now ticking for states — from Europe to the Arab world and beyond — to join them.” This is not a moment to observe. It is a moment to act. Share the Joint Statement from Bogotá and popularise the six measures. Write to your elected representative and your government and demand they sign on before 20 September. History was made in Bogotá. Now, it’s up to all of us to ensure it becomes reality, that Palestinian life is not disposable and international law is not optional. The era of impunity is coming to an end. Palestine is not alone. In solidarity, The Progressive International Secretariat  
    • Most countries charge for entry to museums and galleries, often a different rate for locals (tax payers) and foreign nationals. The National Gallery could do this, also places like the Museums in South Kensington, the British Library and other tax-funded institutions. Many cities abroad add a tourist tax to hotel bills. It means tourists help pay for public services.
