Someone should move there and declare it an independant state, like Sealand

The SAS used to camp there in order to claim it


There's a for real case in front of the courts betweens Ireland, UK,Icleand and Denmark

Fence sitting activists, great.

Good to see that Scottish and British ministers are turning down the request to appear before a Senate committee in the US.

They don't have to justify themselves to a bunch of Americans who are jumping on the anti-BP bandwagon.

Oh yes, perhaps we should bow down to BP for destroying our coastline and lobbying for a terrorist to be released.

You're just going to have to deal with us not liking BP. What's there to like anyway? We should do everything in our power to squeeze every penny out of them in litigation.

If that's bad for your economy or local economy, tough shit.

Got to agree that people just seem to be jumping on the hate BP bandwagon.

But the fact that the guy was released was a ridiculous decision, and it certainly seems that there was more going on to make the move.

I just wonder would America be making such accusations if they didn't have some sort of information about it?

Again, should we bow down to BP for their actions? Shall we say, "oh thank you BP for destroying the gulf economy, you're the best."

Fuck BP.

Don't bank on it.

Shall I post this again?

It's not over yet.

Hope you were long and are still long the stock.

One of my friends sold his BP stock 6 months ago

He probably bought in at the peak.

I have no issue with BP being blamed for what they have done wrong, and paying for it.

My problem is only that people are going too far and are slinging everything at BP, whether there is any evidence they have done anything wrong or not.

BP deserve that. I know this is fucked up logic, but they probably get away with a lot, so it wouldn't hurt to pin things they didn't do to them

It was his grandmothers, I think the stock was two decades old at least.

I think this point escapes the average American, but then it is easier to put the blame all on the huge British oil company rather than the smaller American companies and staff that were directly operating at the time. I can understand that from the average citizen, but it's also the stand from the US president and senators, I guess politicians like to deflect shit with elections up this year.

Thats bullshit, it has nothing to do with the fact that BP's a British company

Fuck BP.

Who is saying anything about bowing down?
They should and probably will face litigation for the Gulf of Mexico problems.

We are talking about their connection to the Lockerbie bomber being released, and it seems that the accusations of them playing a part in that are only being made because of everything that has gone on with the oil leak.

BIGOT!!!

Half my family are protestant

Thats bullshit, it has nothing to do with the fact that BP's a British company

The oil rig is Marshallese

No, because it's a big oil company, I heard it already.

 

[Fred]

Why are you guys being so defensive about it? Is it because its British?

 

[JuveJay]

Wouldn't exactly be the first or last people here to give a domestic view on events, all I am really doing is adding another side to the argument. Andy's view is that of an American, and that also has bias, but it doesn't mean that either side can incorrectly interpret facts. Those are that yes, BP has a huge responsibility, needs to take the bad with the good, but I find the attitude of several senators and American companies involved as extremely shabby, like not meeting their moral and financial responsibilities. When this is over I hope BP remember that.
