My grandmother cries when describing the poverty they lived in when she was a child (1930s) in Newcastle (Northern England). Nobody had it easy in the past. Well done for falling f…

I did not cherry-pick, I took some examples off of duck duck go to prove a point that everywhere has their problems and you probably shouldn't be criticising my country (which is q…

I didn't quote mine. I literally put in "Japanese Train Attack" and pulled some links off the first page to prove that it isn't quite as perfect as it was claimed. I don't like the…

Yeh well I gave catching the train a chance (I was riding trains for about 10 years before I could afford a car) and driving is much easier.

Virgin trains wants basically another 10-15 a month on top of your journey for internet and you can't take a bike on their trains without phoning ahead first. Cross country aren't …

Interesting tbh if it was the same amount of time I would just drive in. Outside of London the train is always slower. I used to live in Manchester and get the train into Stoke. Dr…

Most people are coming from outside of London and what you find is that it is usually quicker to drive in and just sit in the traffic than mess about doing park and rides and then …

This is nonsense. This is the same warped view of the world along the lines of "the person is political" and is a thought worm that has to be binned. I don't buy bog roll as a poli…

Well with someone such as that you aren't trying to convince him you are trying to convince the audience of your position.
