Clement Attlee was not a good Prime Minister. Discuss.

I was hoping kentonio would take that bait so I could find an excuse to point out that Britain invented concentration camps, but alas, it seems my post was overlooked.

Strangely enough, the Spanish beat them to it.

[The Mad Monk]

It would be an honor to see the work of such a professional.

Read the ****ing thread.

I have read the ****ing thread, thank you.

And your ****ing posts too, as lacking in any ****ing substance as they were.

Let me know when you get to a ****ing point, or post a ****ing fact, rather than a ****ing opinion.



Have a ****ing nice day !

You're right, that was very worth while.

Go and google it your ****ing self.

On the other hand you could dig out a textbook on American history (specifically one dealing with that phase of imperialist aggression that included grabbing Cuba and Puerto Rico and 'liberating' the Philippines from the Spanish and then the Filipinos) and read about the concentration camps in Cuba.

This has been a public information service, courtesy of several articles in 'History Today' and chatting to some Filipino friends in Manchester about 30 years ago.

Back in the drawer with the other knives, Miss Sharp.

Indeed.

[Dauphin]

I found it too easy. :/

[Tupac Shakur]

All the "****s" made up for the lack of effort.

[molly bloom]

Indeed.

So glad you appreciated the reference to John Cooper Clarke.

Much more edifying than a reference to a Michael Bay film.

For lack of effort, your posts containing little to nothing on the record of Attlee's government win the prize. Odd, in a thread you start on Attlee...

So you did Google it.

[Evil Knevil]

You're right, that was very worth while.

Worthwhile is one word.

[Tupac Shakur]

Worthwhile is one word.

The proper spelling of Evil Knevil is "Evel Knievel".

[molly bloom]

So you did Google it.

Oh you poor predictable dear.

No, I didn't. I was reading an old Guardian article and then realized what you were referring to.


How awful for you.

Why do people talk about concentration camps like they're a bad thing?

Why do people talk about concentration camps like they're a bad thing?

Because they confuse them with extermination camps, possibly. On the other hand, a badly run concentration camp can be unpleasant too, just not quite as deadly.
