to want HATE campaigns against foreigners in the popular Press to stop...

Sorry about the typos- watching tv listening to DH and posting on GN!

Perhaps the Daily Mail has similar guidelines?

"Nobody is born hating another person because of the colour of their skin.
People learn to hate.
They can be taught to love for love comes more naturally to the human heart."
Nelson Mandela.

If there had been no protests in South Africa, where would it be now? It would still have appartheid.
I know it's still not perfect, but it's had three generations of people being taught to hate, whether black or white.

There is no doubt though, that over the years Lego has become more aggressive.I Have been buying it for DGS for years (now 12) so know what I'm talking about.
They are not cuddly toy makers.

I think that's on the wrong thread, roses.

No it's not.

I like this new Lego figure

"The Justice Committee condemns any personal attacks on members of the judiciary. Free debate should not be couched in terms of abuse of individuals who, by virtue of the oath they have taken and the role they discharge, cannot defend themselves publically. It is quite wrong to vilify or attack judges or attempt to intimidate or undermine them. The right of the press to speak freely must be exercised responsibly; it is not a licence to attack judges in a personal manner or seek to undermine the constitutional principle of judicial independence, which is absolute."

That's old news, durhamjen - at least 5 days old. Not like you to be so slow...

I think roses post is on the right thread

Does the judge come with a Lego courtroom, jury, barristers, defendants, witnesses etc etc - otherwise really boring.

ps I am sure that Terence Etherton knows better as a former member of the Olympic fencing team than to wave a fencing sword without a mask, jacket, glove

Don't do it, Lego Terence!!

I think the figure is meant to be a marine( the army of the Navy) under King George!
Think of Pirates Of The Carribean.

Did a pirate really have a wig and gavel?

That's a bloody long gavel!

Not a pirate.. suzied but a Marine! They had swords.

It may well be meant to be a judge, but it reminds me of a Marine from the film Pirates Of the C.

Can someone on GN show me exactly where on GN someone has said another poster has actually called a DM reader stupid.

It's all very well to say that some DM readers on here "feel" they have been verbally put down or that they feel it has been suggested they are stupid etc.

Unless a poster has ever actually said on here I think that you are stupid etc because you are a DM reader, it is probably the way you percieve youself.

They still do, they are not issued but they have to buy them.
Not sure if they have to trail them, like RN swords

what was that all about?

Charming! You're on a roll today, Nelliemoser...

Ana it doesn't have a point on the end so it may not be a sword

It looks like a long, thin truncheon to me!

from POGS post

"I am accusing those who repeatedly belittle, sneer , make disparaging remarks at any opportunity against people who read the Daily Mail, The Sun any paper THEY assume beneath their choice of reading material because of their belief they are more intelligent.
I rant against the newspapers "way" of presenting news. Not the readers.
Now read my comments below.

It's not a very flattering image, is it?

Sir Terence hasn't got that many wrinkles and is better looking altogether.

Ooh heck! Am I turning my grandson into an aggresive monster by buying him some of this for Christmas? Nexo Knights But he loves his Lego!

It's got "rapid fire stud shooters". And a sword is mentioned somewhere.
