Robust is definitely the word of the month. Everyone is saying it.

Yeah, I think most British people (with the exception perhaps of Comrade Riley) would have done the same.

We should really have some sort of master list of "avoid these magazines like a plague" from different countries.

Well be fair it does quote the guardian which is fairly reliable....“shows England and Wales as the top of the world league with Australia as the countries where you are most likely to become a victim of crime.”...though strangely enough neither the cited article or the survey it mentions give the resuts that are desired by mr. gunnut.
But I suppose a pattern of falling crime rates but still toppng a poll of 17 countries on car crime wouldn't quite fit the bill for his piece would it

I do the same thing when someone quotes the New York Times.

It's difficult enough to separate fact from fiction in domestic news sources. It must be doubly difficult to do so with foreign news.

Or even "avoid these posters" perhaps.

Meh!!

Jim,
I don't mind the Posters or the things they post in anyway.
(I did use the water bottle thing to light my outback shed!! 50% alcohol as an anti-freeze added thought)
We have the choice to ignore the post or not take part in it.

(Of which I believe is impossible given the fact that Neal has designed,
AND run General Topics with Malice aforethought ! It has also proven to be addictive!!)
