Good heavens Carroll your denial of historical fact is astounding.

So I - invent virtually every statement you put up." - do I?

The 1832 Reform Act was just a figment of my imagination was it?

1: "Several historians credit the Reform Act 1832 with launching modern democracy in Britain. G. M. Trevelyan hails 1832 as the watershed moment at which "'the sovereignty of the people' had been established in fact, if not in law". - Source: G.M. Trevelyan

2: "Evans (1996) emphasises that the Reform Act "opened a door on a new political world". Although Grey's intentions were conservative, Evans says, and the 1832 Act gave the aristocracy an additional half-century's control of Parliament, the Act nevertheless did open constitutional questions for further development. Evans argues it was the 1832 Act, not the later reforms of 1867, 1884, or 1918, that were decisive in bringing representative democracy to Britain. Evans concludes the Reform Act marked the true beginning of the development of a recognisably modern political system" - Source: Eric J. Evans "The Forging of the Modern State Early Industrial Britain, 1783–1870 (2nd ed. 1996) p. 229

So due to the Reform Act of 1832 and the further Reform Acts that followed it did make Britain more democratic - Not made up at all eh?

Liverpool 1900 - 1938:
During the first part of the 20th century Liverpool continued to expand, pulling in immigrants from Europe. In 1903 an International Exhibition took place in Edge Lane. In 1904, the building of the Anglican Cathedral began, and by 1916 the three Pier Head buildings, including the Liver Building, were complete. This period marked the pinnacle of Liverpool's economic success, when it regarded itself as the "second city" of the British Empire. - Source: Belchem, John, ed. (2006).

It appears I didn't make that one up either Jom.

On World War One the absolute howlers you came out with were legion, perhaps we could start a thread dealing with them - the famous Kitchener resignation - the special squads of military policemen who were tasked with the summary execution of British soldiers who didn't get out of the trenches quick enough (Yet oddly enough not one single soldier executed in this manner could be named - I say oddly because of all those supposed witnesses)

Everything written by both Keith A and myself related to the "Great War", the Famine and 1916 can all be verified and substantiated - which is more than can be said for the drivel you churned out

"Your bullshit about what weapons the Syrians used to train their snipers - you were asked to prove it - you refused."

No secret at all that the Syrian Army and Police use Russian weapons - just google Syrian armed Forces or Syrian Army and you get links to every type of weapon they use - 7.62 x 51mm rounds do not fit in Russian guns that fire 7.62 x 39mm rounds.
