    On a more serious note tho, more deaths announced today in the UK but a few less than previously, China, Italy and Spaim allowing a bit more freedom. The good thing, if there is such a thing in these times, is that because we are a bit behind other nations time wise we can learn from the mistakes and positive things that are happening elsewhere. Sounds like China may have let up too early..we shall see...

    Let's hope so, although that is by no means certain , given what has happened so far

If you did get me off it would mean I may very well do it again or encourage others to do it. Wouldn't that mean you were partly responsible , in effect,for any subsequent racist crimes I carried out?
    To be fair as a union rep I've defended the indefensible Roly , different context I'll agree .

    Guilty as sin some of em and deserved the sack but you do what they pay their subscriptions for and give them the best representation you can .

    I couldn't stand the sight of one or two of em but you have to do what you have to do .

    It's a funny area Roly , you have to be two people when you do that kind of thing , one what you really think and one what's expected of you .

    Almost as bizarre as bringing up random union employees nobody's ever heard of for comments they made about Johnson.

    I'm sure that's true but not the same as racist murders which i alluded to... I would think that Kerr could pick and choose his cases as a lawyer more than you as a union rep but I stand to be corrected...

    Fair enough. You didn’t have to post that.

    I couldn’t do it.

    Not quite the same thing Animal as as a union rep you would have little or no choice because as you say subscriptions have been paid
    but a lawyer has a choice as to whether he/she accepts the brief or not leaving the "client" to find a replacement

    Sorry - fake news on pork. Misheard 4 to 5% as 45%
