Damn shame. To think that England was once “Great Britain’’ now it’s just....Britain. I couldn’t imagine myself at my age(53) having been born there and then having to grow up and with each passing decade watching as my country turned into something from the Mad Hatters Tea Party. I’d have gone crazy.

For the life of me I don’t know what happened to the Brits. It’s pathetic to see. I think in my life time, maybe 10 years, 15 tops Canterbury Cathedral will become a mosque.

Put the medals in a case and carry them, you did not earn them...sorry that how it see it.

AS for the hadji, well, send him to the Tower....

Did anybody actually read the artcle?

Magistrate Mr Chittenden ordered Abdullah, of Portsmouth, to pay £100 compensation to Mr House and £100 in court costs.

He said: ‘The offence you have been convicted of is particularly abhorrent to society.’

He didn't get jail but he didn't get away with it either.

How many citizen-to-citizen altercations in the US actually see people getting jail time for spitting at each other, especially if facts might be in dispute?

The Muzzie here is absolute scum on so many levels. He has priors. He said he was spit at first (no evidence spoken of in the article). It was clear he connected his spit with those esteemed medals. He was therefore fined in light of some very obvious evidence he'd done the deed.

Was the guy actually provoked by the wearer of the medals, or are we to simply assume the guy just walked right up to the man shouting and spitting? We will never know for sure.

At any rate let's get a better picture of the whole story by reading the whole story first.

FReegards!

Etiquette and protocol on wearing medals is different in the UK. Over here, those who earn the medals wear them on the left breast, if the recipient is dead, the next of kin or other close family member may wear them on the right.....
