    Is beer a working class drink ?

    Er, that's not "beer" you're thinking of.

    Is beer a working class drink ?

    Nonsense. At least in the UK, beers are popular at all levels. The statistics (anecdote?) in the OP just suggests that the working classes used to drink a lot of beer, and now they drink less of it, not that the happy consumption of it is a class based thing.

    Why don't the French drink fresh milk?

    Eggs ought to be kept in a dry place, but the inside of a fridge tends to have a level of humidity higher than a cupboard. They also ought to be kept away from other smells or flavours, such as one usually finds in a fridge. There's not much point putting eggs in the fridge.

    Why don't the French drink fresh milk?

    You're probably comparing UHT milk with pasteurised homogenised milk, which seems to be the norm for Northern Europe. I agree that UHT can be an unpleasant surprise for people used to pasteurised homogenised milk. In France in most supermarkets I go to in the south-centre of France one can buy...

    How Middle Eastern Milk Drinkers Conquered Europe

    Very odd newspaper article. Completely at odds with every study I've seen so far.

    Intelligence What characterises people with high IQ's ?

    What an extraordinary concentration of single-post accounts. Suspicious, much?

    Society Is the EU fostering the use of English across Europe ?

    The increase in the use of English is a global trend, so it seems strange to accord credit or blame for it in Europe to the EU. It would make more sense to associate it with the prevailing economic and social reality.

    Genetics of the British and Irish people

    Why are the Irish more frequently dark-haired? And would this make the white English largely of Celtic origin?

    Immigration Roman Catholic bishop stabbed to death in Turkey

    Have have to reach back to 2006 to find 'precedent'? Can't be too bad, then.

    The British attitude towards Europe?

    Not alone at all. Alone like Norway is alone, or like Switzerland is alone. So...in fact not even remotely alone.

    The British attitude towards Europe?

    You ignored it, but it nonetheless did answer your question about how the UK could financially sustain itself beyond the constraints of an EU superstate.

    Howdy and welcome. What brings you here?

    Newbie

    Memetic theory holds that almost all of our knowledge and language is a meme. I hardly think it's a justification for you spitting nonsense, singling religion out as a harmful disease of the mind.

    multiculturalism good or bad??

    Welsh are you? No. Or you live in Wales do you? Most of the time, yes. I'm consequently registered to vote there. Or you mix with Welsh people from all walks of life every day do you? I do indeed. From Welsh Assembly Members down to the homeless. Or is it that you make that claim based on...

    The Catholic Church, Al Qaida and Israel

    Obama was effectively elected as a prophet, so I'm not sure your point is as strong as you'd like.

    Politics Van Rompuy becomes EU's first president

    A flag is also an image. Why not simply have one of them? They don't cost so much. If the EU wishes to look strong and stable, it should dedicate itself above all else to the acquisition of vast quantities of money and the bringing together of diverse abd vastly powerful economies. Committees...
