What ahppend Malcolm you got bored of Zimbabwe and went back to this old chesnut?

Anyway I am not going to go back over all this again you havs aterted plenty of threads full of evidence blowing gunshot size holes in your arguements and a judge has thrown this case out of court 3 times to my recollection. The Christian group can apologise all they want ( they will get sued soon enough) but it will make little difference to anything plus it's strange they are sorry now but kept thier mouths shut last year when the UK commerated the abolishment of slavery.

No it's not a criminal offence for groupa to unilaterally apolgise and it's not an offence for people to disagree with the stance of the governments in the UK ( hell I disagree with lots of things the UK and Scottish governments do) the difference between the UK and many African countries is we won't be killed / disappear for disagreeing with the government.

As for Scotland well you kepp telling yourself that but you know in your heart of hearts you have proved absolutley nothing apart from how much of an idiot you really are.
