Kath Posted 20 February , 2018 Author Share Posted 20 February , 2018 Thanks, Stephen. Can't find a link to RT article, but it's reported in: https://www.pressreader.com/uk/the-daily-telegraph/20180220/281513636630242 Kath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassenach Posted 20 February , 2018 Share Posted 20 February , 2018 RT has just landed on my doormat and the good Colonel's article is duly included. It's not blazed across the front cover, which is taken up by some new drama by the Rowling female, but inside under "also this week." Surprising, that, eh?

sassenach Posted 21 February , 2018 Share Posted 21 February , 2018 Interesting article, though the assertion that the justness or otherwise of the Great War "still divides British society" seems a bit questionable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dai Bach y Sowldiwr Posted 21 February , 2018 Share Posted 21 February , 2018 Interesting? Maybe. 10/20 Hindsight hasn't helped his argument I don't think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sassenach Posted 21 February , 2018 Share Posted 21 February , 2018 I suppose that shows that the question "still divides British society." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
