Look to me like you provide all the animosity and ill-feeling this forum could ever need.

Your original post and the link therein sought to demonstrate something which is, at best, a distortion of the truth.

The happy-clappers then join in telling us that Americans must therefore be stupid, although how you make that leap is beyond me. :confused:

For those of us who live in the 21st Century.

It is perfectly acceptable to end a sentence with a preposition e.g. something you’ve probably heard quite often:-

What planet are you on?

More bluster and pomposity.

RE 276

Never end a sentence with a preposition. .

That apart, I take all your strictures as a compliment.

Believe me, it wasn’t a compliment.

The point is that the US position on the Falklands hasn’t changed. When Reagan was president it was exactly the same, even down to passing information to Argentina to maintain neutrality.
As far as Kerry is concerned, I thought he was a war hero? Awarded the Silver Star. I suspect opposition to him is rather more to do with the fact that he is a Democrat and works for Obama rather than any logical opposition.
Anyway, such is the regard for the UK within US diplomatic circles, it is the first country John Kerry visits as Sectretary of State. I don’t think that sounds like a snub to me.

It looks like the usual suspects are trying to stir up animosity and ill-feeling where there is none.

Load of tabloid, xenophobic rubbish pandering to our fears, well some peoples’ paranoia anyway.

If the indigenous Brits were squeaky clean then I could maybe see the point in such a complaint.

I’ll give you this John Green, you are a winner when it comes to forums. You never answer any of the points put to you , your replies are full of bluster and fantasy and as such are frankly impossible to debate with. Your superiority complex is so woefully misplaced as to be laughable. I wouldn’t have called you a liar but I can think of plenty of other phrases that would have been rewarded with a ban even on this relatively unmoderated forum.
All the best with the rest of your pontificating and I hope you get a tin-foil hat that fits.

Smart meter and direct debit. Never have to read a meter or get an estimated bill again.

You might pay more in the summer but it all evens out over the year. If you are worried about your bill, try switching suppliers, U-Switch used to do a good comparison with the different suppliers. We’ve paying £71 a month for gas and electricity on dual fuel, fixed price deal with Eon.

It doesn’t sound like the US position is any different to what it has been in the past.

John Kerry’s statement in full for those who like to make up their own minds rather than have it made up for them.

“I am not going to comment, nor is the president on a referendum, that has yet to take place and hasn’t taken place.

“Our position on the Falklands has not changed. The US recognises de-facto UK administration of the islands but takes no position of the question of sovereignty claims.

“We support cooperation between UK and Argentina on practical matters, we continue to urge a peaceful resolution.”
