  2. Don’t forget red Robbo and the three day week and the dead piling up in the streets. Lord Mountbatten being murdered by the IRA and bombing of mainland England. Argentina needing to win six nil against Peru in the World Cup as host nation to qualify and winning six nil and tickertape. Yes the 70s sucked, the only bright light was Aston Villa football club and the expansive attacking side created by Ron Saunders
  3. Good to mention regarding the tenniswear of the early 80s. The wife got me a pair of Diadora Borg elites Kangaroo skin re issues for my 50th, Only worn them a couple of times, last time was at Wembley In March
  4. Sir Clive was da man, ZX81 then the spectrum if I recall? Then some mad one seater electric car
  5. Lad made it back and grounded for anyone who may have the slightest interest
  6. Predator If it bleeds we can kill it
  7. No mention of the sausages either....... The ohhh matron one is his best
  8. I agree again, but they came out in support of her 'controversial views' not my words but Cambridge University. To use the word controversial they must have some opinion and what Peterson said re gender would be classed as controversial and what Noah wrote was his 'controversial' that a great many academics signed a petition to state he was wrongly potted based on the free speech argument, both of which could be classed as showing political bias which was my point. Anyhow will come back later as my youngest lad i have just been advised is 2 hours late coming back from the park and turned his phone off the little git and the Mrs is having kittens shouting get off that bloody computer and look for him (like I am bloody physic) women eh
  9. Yes I do, has he ever been charged with inciting racial hatred? This brings us back to what the row was all about in the first place, the perceived comments of Dr Gopal with regard to race
  10. Yes surrounded by walls and they pour oil over anyone from Oxford who tries to climb them. Thank you for putting university in but it is what I meant as you know
  11. I would never express your inability to understand something based on my own perceived beliefs
  12. It is within the walls of Cambridge
  13. Why was he stripped his fellowship then, Being in the wrong dorm at 3 am with a bottle of champagne and a cigar with his reputation
  14. Cambridge University @Cambridge_Uni · 24 Jun The University defends the right of its academics to express their own lawful opinions which others might find controversial Was this the case with Noah Carl?
  15. But not at Cambridge University, eh it is their decision and and right to support the comments by Dr Gopal but do not proclaim yourself up as the Bastian of free speech and then deny it to somebody you had invited to speak at the University because they don’t like what he says.
  16. How onearth has it gone wildly off topic. Dr Gopal made some extremely controversial that could be deemed racial comments, But nobody had commented on before me on this thread and was supported in her right to free speech regardless of controversial content by Cambridge University who in the past have not given that freedom speech to other academics. I would say that is bang on the topic of the thread, Peterson being the example nothing more
  17. Due to complaints from the student union regarding his comments which as far as I’m aware is FreeSpeech?
  18. I agree, however Cambridge University champions itself as the Bastian of free speech, I provided an example of where they have been, not thus suggesting political bias With regard to Dr Gopal
  19. Which part of right to free speech that others might find controversial do you not get?
  20. Ice cold 660ml bottles of Estrella with Jim Beam Kentucky sour mash chasers
  21. Jordan Peterson‘s invitation to lecture that was rescinded by Cambridge University a Couple of years ago because of some comments he made regarding gender The psychologist accused Cambridge of being "unprofessional" after he found out he was being stripped of his fellowship as a result of complaints from the student union. Peterson, a psychology professor at the University of Toronto who has been widely deemed as a life guru, made headlines with his YouTube videos a few years ago after criticising Canadian legislation stipulating the use of gender-neutral pronouns in relation to people who do not strictly identify with binary categories like men or women. He argued at the time that such legislation infringed upon his personal right to free speech. Many have knocked Peterson's conservative position, as the professor has argued for enforced monogamy, the view that men are victims of gender discrimination, etc.
  22. To avoid confusion, the same support of free speech given by the University in support of Dr Gopal has not been consistent in the past whilst dealing with other 'academics' who have made comments 'which others might find controversial' suggesting a potential political bias
