That's OK, we all make mistakes.

I think I had that on a T shirt, about 30 years ago. Another version involved a dalek and a dustbin.

What, no what, this was the paper that supported Hitler until the outbreak of hostilities in 1939, I usually ignore everything you post but this is beyond the pale, total crap! I would say more but the rules say attack the post not the poster.

Wonderful.
There ought to be an icon for when people are spluttering with indignation.

Unconditional regard dear Biffa unconditional regard. :icon_lol:

Because this is a long post and I have done other long posts on it before I will make this my only post on this thread ending with with seven words "Aren't we lucky to have the BBC".

Pfft. :icon_roll

Biffa having a tantrum was too funny to pass up. Sadly because he does not read my posts he won't have seen it.
But you are right - no more on this thread.

Great idea. I'd use it!

Daleks, Davros, Bobby Davro, Bob Carolgees, Carol Decker, Desmond Dekker, James Bond, Sean Connery, Sean Bean, Beenie Man, bin man, Dusty Bin.

He is right about what exactly? It was your declared intent only to make one single post in the thread and thereby excuse yourself from answering any counter-posts

How the **** do you get to James Bond from Desmond Dekker?

I'm more worried about his knowledge of Dr Who enemies. I had to Google 'Davros'.

Surely he doesn't watch that shite? Surely?!

I've not seen it for about 30 years, but I knew who Davros was

Do you have a market stall?

Jebus, no.

Ah, 'Caravan World' arrived in its usual plain brown wrapper this morning - fantasic read, suberb piece on the latest Sterling Elie Amber. Right of centre I guess, but I can live with that.

Thanks webbo. BM is cleverer than he appears.

Sorry, i thought all papers were biased and just printed their own version of a story 'spun' to ensure it's biased readers do not disagree with their prejudice and therefore defect to a rival?

This is the media whether it 'news(papers)' TV, polititians or whatever.

Get over it.

The point of this thread was about the DM publishing a story that was made up, including made up quotes, not about political bias.

Bit of a backwards compliment but I'll take it.

Yes quite, but all papers make things up or manipulate stories to suit. My point was this is nothing new and certainly not confirned to the DM.
