Loony - possibly. Left definitely.

Wonder how many opposing posters would be as quick to admit they're on the right? Always find that strange.

As for different views - not picked arguments with any of other posters stance. But BLM recently resorting to immigrants being sent back on boats and traveler statements ended by shooting emoticons is hardly s balanced or considered approach - simply the type of far right idiocy I personally find abhorrent.

The world has definitely gone mad when people are raging over an emoticon.

I'm a real ale man myself although i have tried a drop of prosecco. Try it with a measure of Chambord (a French black raspberry liqueur) to make a Kir Royale - lovely.

I'll have to get a bottle for Monday.

Ok, I'm pretty sure no one is intending to shoot anyone. It's an emoticon. Get a grip.
If anyone is offended by any posts they can report them and the mods will be alerted to take a look.

Don't start an argument by name calling. It makes it worse.
Let's not overuse our outrage just for the sake of it.
I don't see anything worth deleting but I'll keep the thread open so people can comment whether the car park is clear.
Let's not get political about it.

Not in a grown ups dictionary son.

Mass over reaction, hysteria and trolling. Let's leave this one then eh?
