future European beaches

If you have something so weird, strange or off-topic to post and think it doesn't belong in any other forum; you're probably right. Please put all your gormless, half-baked, inane, glaikit ideas in here. This might also be a place where we throw threads that appear elsewhere that don't belong ANYWHERE end up, instead of having to flush them. FORUM RULES STILL APPLY.

It seems that you have nothing to do here except posting the same anti-Muslim stuff from the UK. You are not the only one who does that, and I think the forum moderators are quite tolerant, but IMO you are only here to post your political agenda and none of it has anything to do with Cambodia. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I think we have been too tolerant of your troll-posts.

History

Voice of Europe is a far right website that publishes sensational stories. Although the website doesn’t list who runs the site, according to Whois the site’s registrant name is Annemiek Ploumen. According to Dutch magazine De Groene Amsterdammer (independent Dutch weekly news magazine published in Amsterdam), Erik De Vlieger is the financier and founder of the site, although he will not confirm or deny this publicly, while Daan van Seventer is the technical person. Voice of Europe doesn’t have an about page, however according to their twitter profile information they describe their content as “Conservative news network delivering you breaking news, uncensored articles and must-see videos.”

Funded by / Ownership

Ownership is not disclosed, however Erik De Vlieger appears to be the financier and the website is primarily funded through online advertising.

Analysis / Bias

In review, Voice of Europe reports stories from European media and frames and spins them in a misleading way that always turns out negative for immigrants and the European Union: “Almost 98% of gang rapists in Sweden have a migrant background”, “Sweden reports highest number of murders in fifteen years” Voice of Europe also has a poor track record with fact checkers.

Voice of Europe’s stories consist of sensational click bait headlines and focus on a variety of topics that are mostly anti-immigrant with emotionally loaded headlines and content such as “Swedish student suspended for telling the truth about migrant sex crimes.“ Voice of Europe frequently uses factually mixed sources such as Breitbart, Daily Mail, Gatestone Institute, and Sputnik News.

Overall, this site is Questionable due to extreme right wing bias, promotion of propaganda, conspiracy theories and poor sourcing. (M Huitsing 4/8/2018) Updated (10/24/2018)

So a dutch member of parliment is not asking for seperate beaches for muslims? so a FACT posted on a right wing website becomes propaganda ?

On the left it looks someone who likes to go to the beach, on the right are some Ninjas who have just kidnapped a child. What's all that about?

Anecdote...

We were on a several month secondment with another operator in Asia.

Several crews, all holed up in a hotel, occasionally required to go to work, and the rest of the time we took over the hotel pool, drank beer and bombed the pool.
One day, a fella turns up with his wife. Hotel guests. He was in trunks, she was in Laura Ashley double thick ninja blackout curtains with veil and eye-slit.

They go swimming. Him like an amateur. She*, rather like a submarine. Her chosen swimwear becoming waterlogged in moments and seeking to sort out a Darwin Award.

So, amid her frantic splashing and him panicking, we decided to swim over and lend some assistance.
The hero to the rescue, this fella intervenes to save her modesty and heroically stops us from helping his...wife**
Eventually, having single handedly fended us off, and then unceremoniously dumped his waterlogged...non-ninja***, she was expressive in her thanks to him for saving her....


Barking Mad.
