All of Sheikh Mo's horses to be confiscated in retaliation.

I'm now not studying Meydan tomorrow.

Jeremy Hunt said there will be repercussions. Loud tutting? Stern looks? Vigorous head shaking?
|

By:
baffling case and not sure either way of his innocence. I do remember his wife replying a couple of months ago when asked if he was innocent "Yes, i'm sure he is. Unless the Foreign Office know something"? Which i thought strange at the time

Have MI6 withdrawn all their remaining agents from the Middle East , I wonder ?
|
|
By:
there's also the fact the FO told his family to tread quietly and they would deal with it? That's why it's only been 'newsworthy' for a couple of months

Interesting points Bap.
|
|
By:
it is dreadful that someone would be that sneaky and spy on our 'allies'
|
|
By:
Rumours are he was a gallop watcher binoculars and thick black book found in his hotel.
|
|
By:
Hunt is now threatening repercussions. Maybe the ITV crawlers will be instucted not to call Mo,Your Highness.

Very little comment on Saudi Arabia or the UAE from the usual suspects on here. Trump's and the Tories arslickan of these rogue states simply doesn't compute.

our 'allies' die linke how very dare you
- it's the irony though - virtually untouchable - however - when we get the right batteries it will certainly decrease the significance of the oil nations |

By:
Why would anyone go there? Bound to get arrested for something. They have horse racing where you can't bet!
This fella is either a spy or he's clean. Given that spies are somewhat rare I'd say the latter. |
|
By:
The fact that he's been convicted of spying means that he is/was ..... a spy
 |
|
By:
5 min hearing,no legal representation and apparently no evidence openly presented. I wouldn't let any UAE citizen in this country till the chap has been released.

In the old days Great Britain would of sent a gunboat up the Persian Gulf and given Johnny Foreigner a right good thrashing. Now, to get even, the Great British Government will phart in an eastwards direction and shout "Yah boo sucks"!

I won't take that personally because I am getting fed up with people on here starting petty squabbles over nothing!

Slicer the subjects of the post are the lads posting about the girlfriend which was lighthearted in intent by them also hth.
|
|
By:
FWIW I'd give her one too only if I could get her eyebrows done and go first.
|
|
By:
Fair enough. I misinterpreted your post. Apologies.
|
|
By:
Read a report on the BBC site that says he plead guilty. Is that right?
|
|
By:
No problem only the 2nd person to do that today might have to re think the sarchasm but that leaves me short on chit chat ammo.
|
|
By:
 may i just say one thing on that particular subject; every spy film has a beautiful woman involved with the leading man; and his wife is absolutely gorgeous. I say this knowing that certain people on here would prefer Rosa Klebb |
|
By:
akabula I believe he pleaded guilty in error as he couldn't interpret the arabic apparently.
Bap it's known that spies are recruited from Universities can remember Hugh Dennis saying he was approached as a student so might be part of the gig good with the women I mean. |
|
By:
Rosa Klebb must have gone to Siberia Tech

Cheers Denzil.

What was he Meant to be Spying on ?
|
|
By:
RLK, you beat me to it
 |
|
By:
He beat all of us, get in the queue Platini
 |
|
By:
So did her hubby Dan.
|
|
By:
More likely he was spying for Coolmore than the MoD.
|
|
By:
Reports that his studies were concerned with security in the Emirates!!!
 Apparently someone he interviewed for his research dobbed him in because of the questions he was asking. Talk about being dumb!!! |
|
By:
Obviously this is why the BHA didn't ask too many questions about security at Godolphin's stables in Newmarket a few years ago.

Looks like the horse has bolted on this one!!
