French RL really up against it

[Paley]

No we can't dismiss Union, Union always prospers where fascism takes root.

Mussolini's Italy, Ceacescu's Romania, Vichy France, Apartheid South Africa.

All progressive minds should be vigilant and attempt to stamp outagainst fascism, and with that Union should disappear.

Salazar's Portugal and Franco's Spain were also seized upon by union as regimes they could do business with.

What sort of business did they do together ?

I wouldn't like to speculate but I am sure it was mutually beneficial

:lol:

Brilliant.

It hasn't been a good week for SteveM in the ownership stakes that's for sure.

So your making it up then ?.

You make sh*t up, why can't others. Troll.

 

[ParraEelsNRL]

Don't worry about him sam, he'll take another shot in a few months time.

 

[Sam_the_man]

I don't understand why he is allowed continued access to this part of the site. He hates league and surely has no interest what so ever in international league.

What exactly have I made up? :lol::lol:

I just pointed out a couple more fascist regimes which union got into bed with. Totalitarianism and union do seem to make rather eager bedfellows.

Let me say I for one think SteveM is doing a great job defending union's constant relations with despots.

I also believe Idi Amin played Union when he studied in the UK.

It's quite telling that a bloke who had never seen RU before, sees it for the first time, talks to the fans, immerses himself in th culture and says "This is the game for people like me".

That he subsequently went on to persecute racial minorities and commit all sorts of attrocities seems more than a coincidence.

 

[ParraEelsNRL]

And eat them.

 

[Thomas]

And eat them.

A black Matt Dunning?

 

[taipan]

A black Matt Dunning?

A human flesh eating black Matt Dunning but less intelligent.

Not forgetting Mussolini who saw union as the ideal medium with which to promote fascism - unfortunately for him the Italian public didn't give a toss about union so he eventually dropped the idea.

Naaa, he does a very good job in promoting the French game to the RL fans in the Southern Hemisphere who have no idea it exists.

Pity he doesn't bring a few more of his type across, though, to do that, he'd have to get a few friends first.

Really. Can you give more detail ?

 

[Paley]

Really. Can you give more detail ?

There are several examples provided on this thread.

 

[ParraEelsNRL]

Italy, France, Spain, Catalonia, Czechoslovakia, Romania, Germany and Belgium.

Join the dots.
