Usually means overall health is not tip top. I thought that too, the look of a man who consumes a lot of alcohol and good food. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the best possible way, you sort of answered you’re own question when you conflated British and English. They’re not mutually exclusive. You don’t have to feel part of it if you don’t want to, but there’s no reason why someone can’t be both British and English (or Scottish or Welsh etc). Thats like saying English culture doesn’t exist because there’s also a distinct Cornish culture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But despite the English/Welsh/Scottish differences, there is still plenty of shared culture, certainly when seen from a US perspective. And I'd (respectfully) include Ireland as part of it. True dat. Just sit down @chrisp65, calm down and eat your Sunday Lunch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sidcow Posted September 11, 2022 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted September 11, 2022 There is not only joined culture there are also shared inventions. For example The Welsh invented the earliest condoms using sheep bladders. The English then improved the concept by removing them from the sheep first* *as told to me by my Welsh Dad 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew he broadly supported some homeopathy, and I didn't mind that much - there are some reasonable arguments for its use as placebo in non-serious conditions (though fraught with ethical complications). His views go further than that though. He administers homeopathy instead of antibiotics in his cattle. Either he thinks the placebo effect works on animals, or he thinks homeopathy can replace actual medicine. Either way, the guy's a dangerous **** idiot. Ermm. I think your getting Homeopath confused with psychopath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homeopathic nonsense is funny when it's some harmless unknown idiot. Coming from a position of influence, it's rather less so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
