Heineken (Europe's best selling lager) is well regarded in many pubs down our way (especially those where the only alternative is Fosters).

Reading that the NYT is adding to the list of words not allowed in Wordle for being offensive. Whore I can sort of agree Wench and slave,  , Wench is used by people I know as a term of endearment, indeed one calls his wife that regularly. and lots of women would say they've been slaving over a hot stove. on the Slave side, I saw an article recently about an African Woman wanting to sue the British Government as the abolition of slavery had ruined her family business which was taking or buying slaves then selling them on to slave traders |

Wench - A promiscuous woman or a prostitute. ... The definition of a wench is an offensive term used to refer to a young girl or a woman or to refer to a prostitute. An example of a wench is a prostitute.

People saying EU nice will have a significant negative effect on the UK economy.

That disgusting Polly Toynbee in the Guardian calling for an end to the Monarchy, I would prefer to see an end to her. Why do left whingers always want to destroy all our traditions?

Do you always launch personal attacks on everybody who happens not to share your opinions? I can't see much of a benefit to the monarchy, either. The end of Her Lizziness's reign may very well be a suitable opportunity for a rethink. Does that make me "disgusting", and does it make you want to call for my demise, too?

Personally, I think she's got a point, and I am by no means a leftie. I'm just fed up with the whole lot of them. Princess Anne would make a good monarch, but that will never happen, so forget them.

How predictable.............. Thank you for the well-reasoned and cogent logic in your reply. Did you actually read past the headline before reaching for the foam-flecked green ink? The article is here : www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/feb/17/britain-monarchy-end-royal-jubileeThere is a link from that to this Simon Jenkins piece of a few days ago, also suggesting Her Lizziness should abdicate and retire... www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/feb/14/queen-abdicate-70-years-prince-charles-monarchyIs he "disgusting", too? Should his demise also be called for? Or is it simply a question over whether Charlie takes over or not, whether through retirement or natural causes? How about if it was Andy who was next-in-line instead? Do you not think that the various political farragos of the last couple of years, of PMs and ministers blatantly lying to the monarch in order to break the law, are a demonstration of how little functional value the monarchy retains? If so, does that not just leave the monarchy as no more than a meaningless part of the tourist industry?
