Very amusing in many situations, but what if your life (or something serious, but less dramatic) depended on it?

It has a backup PIN which you can use after several attempts at facial recognition.

More about wee Tommy's visit.
Comments reported in their Parliament saying that inviting him was not properly discussed and was 'a slap in the face to British Jewry'.

The police in Birmingham and other authorities have reviewed the decision to ban Maccabi Tel Aviv fans from next Thursday's game at Aston Villa, as demanded by Keir Starmer.

They have reasserted the ban and cite intelligence from European police agencies about the violent racist behaviour of MTA at various games.

Starmer, Nandy, Badenoch and the rest of them should apologise for slurring the people of Birmingham, the local MP Ayub Khan, many others and for cynically using this to demonise Muslim communities and pro-Palestinian sentiment.

I am not sure that the police could have come to any other conclusion.

That's good to know bmacca, so much for accusations of antisemitism.

Yeah right! Not.

The government should have kept out of this. If a police force make a decision about safety they will have good reason to do so.

It’s obvious why they weren’t wanted, and I predict trouble from the locals and pro Palestinians when the team come to play this month.
That will be anti semitism and anti Israel for you right there.

It is obvious why violent fans won't be wanted. Maccabi fans have done no favours to Israel by their loutish behaviour.
The amount of publicity over this will cause problems in the future for many people.

Yes Oreo, it's obvious they weren't wanted because of their record of violent racist behaviour.

Now the ban is settled and the Maccabi fans can’t attend, there no reason why this shouldn’t be a peaceful game of football with no protest, violence and racism.

Let’s see shall we.

I agree Lathyrus3 we shall see indeed.

Precisely. The safety of the local people was what was important.
