The UK is a state and doesn't have a constitution. Nor does the Open.

Yes, it's a government.

It's a question of where to draw the line.
Whilst I know this isn't the story ..
Should I be allowed to go and stand in silence, donning a huge Russian flag and carrying a placard that says 'Ukraine has always been part of Russia'?
I'd argue that in a free country that should be acceptable. Otherwise, slippery slope and all that.

Of course freedom of speech is the same as being free to be a piece of shit. That's the entire point. Otherwise the authorities can define 'being a piece of shit' as whatever they want. For example as 'Slagging off the government'.
'Freedom of speech as long as it's the speech you like'. Jees - really?

If you're going to call someone an imbecile, it's pretty important to make sure your spelling is correct.

At work whenever I travel to India they give me a posh bottle of wine. I am NOT ALLOWED to refuse it, as that is considered rude. So I jist write the name of the wine in a book at work, then go home and drink it!
Am I being bribed? :)

Is this on a US roulette table or a European Roulette table?
Also in some casinos hitting the green means you get your stake back - was that the case here?
