    Should Scotland have simply declared independence like Kovoso did from Serbia

    Those videos are hilarious, this result isn't a shock, polling companies have been predicting this result for ages. You can't even see what's going on in those videos, it is likely that those ballots were simply lying around ready to be counted. Notice how the only people who are complaining are...

    Scottish Independence Refrendum, polls open

    Excellent news, so many butthurt people on this thread with zero knowledge of history. People act as if Scotland was oppressed, it entered into the union voluntarily partly because it's own imperial endeavours had failed! See the Darien scheme.

    Haha, right. Russia is innocent eh? Is that why it's troops were found 25km into Ukraine today?

    An open letter from the Netherlands to Putin… We are sorry!

    Yeah I seriously think the majority of Dutch people do not think that way.

    Mayor of London says Britons visiting Iraq or Syria should be presumed terrorists

    They are not guilty per se. Rather they would be arrested on suspicion of terrorism or questioned at least.

    Mayor of London says Britons visiting Iraq or Syria should be presumed terrorists

    But should they have a trial, they would still be innocent until proven guilty. I don't see how this is being broken? It's not like they won't get a trial.

    Mayor of London says Britons visiting Iraq or Syria should be presumed terrorists

    Fair enough Boris. Although I am sure the intelligence services already made such a presumption.

    Which Country Drinks the Most Alcohol?

    I think this is what he was referring to . Alcohol flush reaction - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Seems that east asians do not experience the effects of alcohol as much i.e being drunk. But they do sometimes have a reaction? I.e a red face etc.

    Which Country Drinks the Most Alcohol?

    No but in certain situations such informality would be considered rude. I found it awfully confusing, I think I made some pretty big errors but they were amazed that I could simply say please and thankyou in korean.

    Which Country Drinks the Most Alcohol?

    What? I was only there for a limited time but I still have friends who live there. Typically at work you wouldn't be able to question those older or in a higher position than you. After work the boss would take his employees for a drink and some of the formalities would be dropped. If these...

    Which Country Drinks the Most Alcohol?

    Yep, they get so wound up with the whole formality, hierarchical, Confucian thing. Alcohol allows them to finally express their opinion to their boss without appearing rude.

    Which Country Drinks the Most Alcohol?

    Never been to Belarus, but I have been to Moldova. They take vodka to a whole new level. They seemed to handle it really well as well. South Korea is a bizarre one, they love the Soju, drinking midweek seems to be the norm. It was strange seeing businessmen dressed in suits passed out on benches...

    How does PDF view the possible breakup of Britian

    Polls suggest the NO vote is slightly ahead. However I think it could go either way. I think the next Darling vs Salmond debate will take the undecided voters. Here are the odds from betfair which I am very surprised by. Might stick some money on the yes vote. A lot of hate in this thread...

    UK Real Esta drops 5.9% since sanctions on Russia and on Russians.

    I know, but these aren't 'normal' house prices. Take a break mate, stop starting so many threads. Get outside and get some fresh air.

    UK Real Esta drops 5.9% since sanctions on Russia and on Russians.

    And the sky is blue, it was a tongue in cheek comment on my behalf. Summer is usually slow, due to record house prices, more people want to sell whilst at the same time fewer people want to buy = reduction in prices. Factor into that the likely higher cost of a mortgage. I am going to reserve...

    UK Real Esta drops 5.9% since sanctions on Russia and on Russians.

    A drop which is from a historical high. I am sure many Brits would welcome a drop in house prices.

    Russia may ban car imports if West applies new sanctions, report says

    The sanctions are a straw man set up by the governments to blame for the EU's economic woes. It's too early for any sanctions to have had any measurable effect yet and most of them have loopholes. The energy sector is yet to be sanctioned and I suspect it never will be. The sanctions are a mere...
