I didn’t see that thread…..they’re a compassionate lot over there (your post excepted)…
…the small number of posts seem to be primarily concerned about how military kit performs in a new scenario! :rolleyes:
The problem seems quite widespread…..I was directed to this clip the other day:

And before you ask…..someone has already added the appropriate music! 😉

I think there is more to that than meets the eye…..lots intentional accelerations and 2nd attempts at hitting the cars. Even after the car came to a stop, in blatently obvious impossible conditions, they set off again to go for more hits.
I thought that was strange too; almost like they were trying to do as much damage (to their own car) as possible?
Maybe it is just that they’ve never experienced ice before and think they can steer and ‘power’ out of trouble (even if their reactions are a bit slow)! :confused:
Some more ‘fender-benders’ on icy roads:

Strange behaviour of some of the motorists…..surely the safest place is IN the car! :rolleyes:

I think your screen resolution has let you down

Oh, carnal knowledge! Actually, than makes much more sense…..must poke a few more holes in the visor of my aluminium-foil helmet! 😮

Well it was on the Pravda website…..and we all know what ‘pravda’ means in Russian don’t we! :diablo:

Switch off their benefits, put them under curfew, give them ASBOs, attach ankle tags, take away their British citizenships…
Forbid them from owning property? Forbid them from using public parks? Forbid them from using public transport?
You could get them to sew a distinctive cloth patch on their outer clothing, a crescent perhaps…
…can’t use a six-pointed star…..that’s been done already! :rolleyes:

Except that Islam4UK (am I allowed to say that now?) announced that they had given-up their intention to march through Wooton Bassett before they were banned. Did they actually even apply to the council to march in the first place? I doubt it.
How do you ban (the group formally known as) Islam4UK anyway?
Interview their members and keep them under surveillance? Close their registered offices? Freeze their bank accounts? Seize their funds? Confiscate and destroy their documents? Shut down their website? Dismantle their printing, publishing and distribution apparatus?
Honestly, it’s five blokes with a laptop…..not the Pentagon! :rolleyes: ‘Mumsnet’ has more political clout!
