The Nobel Peace Prize has become somewhat a joke.
Yasser Arafat, Yitzak Rabin and Shimon Perez got one for the peace they brought to Israel and Palestine, despite its invisibility.
George W Bush and Tony Bair have been repeatedly nominated for one by the Nobel Committee, though fortunately protests each time have prevented that coming to fruition.
And Aung San Suu Kyi was given one for her record in Myanmar, but look at her record since in respect of the Rohingya driven out of her country with murderous force.
History indicates it should normally only be a posthumous award, once it's shown to be deserved over time.
However, the EU got one, that was well deserved.
.
Spin again?
I made this comment
Drunk and disorderly football yobs? he sure looks like that when posing and posturing at the EU Parliament when he is supposed to be working in the interests of this country.
You made this statement
"That sounds like an elitist comment. There are a lot of football supporters in this country, "
Since when was it an "Elitist statement" to criticise Football Yobs? do they deserve political representation?
Do you want a Yob Faction in Parliament?
Good grief what nonsense we need sane and sober people in charge not loud mouthed drunken idiots, that would be even worse than it is now
Looks like some of the committee felt that they could use it to influence the recipients - though looks like we both disagree with that approach.
Maybe not literally posthumous, but post-active role, or any possibility of taking up an active role again, would make sense?
Just ask them what it is that they want Farage to deliver as a result of Brexit. That shuts them up, because they have no clue what they want or how to get it.
From that comment, It's pretty clear that you know nothing about the guy. You're just repeating what the bent media have told you. Why didn't you watch that video I linked to above?
You're really going down in my esteem, Flecc, not because you disagree with me, but because instead of seeking the truth and informing people accordingly, you're just spouting regurgitated propaganda. Can you show a single piece of evidence that indicates that TR doesn't like Muslims in general. Everything he does goes under the most intense scrutiny by his enemies of which there are plenty. If he had ever written or said anything against Muslims, he'd be in jail. He's never been charged with any hate crimes.
Just go to the brexit party website and read their policies. Oh! They haven't got any.
Other than saying they have events, imploring you to join and donate, listing candidates, and very general slogans, there is nothing that passes as statements of policy.
Just wait and see how many people will vote for them in the now-upcoming Eu elections. They are going to seriously wipe the floor in some areas.
The EU are going to wish they took the chance to get rid of us when they had it.
You hit the nail on the head. Did you read the shooter's manifesto? Some of the reasons stated for doing it was that guys like him didn't have a platform to express their dissatisfaction, so the only recourse was violence. He specifically said that he wanted a reaction to his shooting that would silence people from talking about the issues that concerned him, with the consequence that it would drive them to do the same. Now we have more people silenced, which I find very worrying.
It's the same with Brexit. everybody needs their chance to say their piece and vote for who they want. The moment you try and silence them, they'll resort to violence.
There's no theory. It's all fact, which you can check by watching the broadcast interview and his video evidence of the actual complete interview. Again, you're expressing an opinion without looking at the facts. Watch both the videos, then come back and tell us where the conspiracy is.
Or maybe not?
However, since the 1998 Crime and Disorder Act became law, the maximum sentence for treason in the UK is life imprisonment.

Sorry, but I am not going to wade through the Act to try to decide whether or not death penalty still applies!
Well let’s hear it then. What benefits are you expecting from a hard Brexit and what’s the plan? (Cue tumble-weed)
We see this the same except you have a misunderstanding about these new websites. They've come about because people are getting deplatformed and denied the right to reply on the mainstream sites. The new sites are not secret nor restricted. Anybody can go there and say what they want within the law.
BTW, did you understand the recent vote on article 13 and 11. They will both have massive implications on how we're allowed to use the internet, so instead of the internet we have now, a pirate internet might well spring up, just like the pirate radio in the '60s. It's going to be interesting to see how this develops. The directive was voted in. Now it's down to the governments in each EU country to bring in their own legislation in line with the directive.
All restriction does is drive people into illegal activities. Just like in the '30s when USA tried to ban alchoholic drinks, and much closer to home, how many people are using illegal electric bikes.
