WTF are you talking about - seriously have you Dyslexia or something?

Talking about you getting very annoyed very quickly about a poster thinking Philip Schofield coming out as gay after 27 years is on the WTF thread. You seem to have concentration issues.

You are talking shite as per the norm, now get someone to give you a lesson on a: how to read and b: how to use this forum, there's a good boy.

You're that desperate for attention and to get into an on-line row that you try and manufacture it as you obviously have the patience of a 4 year old. And now you've realised that you look like a c*ck as you jumped the gun. Maybe time for a profile change again.

I think you will find J70 jumped in for the liberal elite to defend big brave Phil, I couldn't give a flying one about a wealthy celeb who always came across as gay coming out, you get back to reaching out to folk.   ;D

Once again, what's the liberal elite?

And I haven't defended him specifically. I know little about him. I questioned how YOU could be so adamant that his hiding his homosexuality and trying to live a straight life for decades can be dismissed as mere selfishness when viewed in the context of long-term societal attitudes towards homosexuality.

The only one making definitive statements about Schofield is you.
AFM is right. Schofield is selfish and a total b-end.  He knew knew he was going to be outted for going with a wee lad so comes out with this soppy post about wanting people to be kind to him? fk clean off. Yet it was alright for him to know he was gay before he got married and have children and still proceed to lie and waste 27 years of his wifes life. But no, hes a hero for being so brave apparently. ::)

I've no reason to doubt that he got out ahead of a breaking story. It would be the smart and usual thing to do. Nor have I said he was brave.

Give Boris wriggle room on the legacy part of the new agreement as allegedly boris knew nothing about it although he was over here when the cameras were rolling.

Can't see Smith going quietly into the night on this one.

This should be getting more air time over here. This stuff is still being produced and used today. Dupont have a factory outside Derry as well.

Eh? The dupont site management have been over to the states months ago to try to get ahead of this with the movie coming out. They're under serious pressure from a PR perspective

It was Dupont, then it was Invista Textiles....it's now The Lycra Company that own the site. Think they are Chinese so they'll not be too worried.

Ultimately, yes, but DuPont has gone through so many mergers, acquisitions, spinoffs and divestments over the years that is difficult to follow what's what.
