"The wide-eyed innocence of "it seems to me that we're not supposed to mention much of the past anymore in England" might be a bit more convincing if it hadn't been endlessly dissected and argued in other threads, often by you. It is the sort of statement which is designed to push people's buttons. So why ressurect such faux-naive statements and topics, except in a deliberate attempt to stir the poo?"

Sigh.....
