For me it's a conspiracy theory (and most likely untrue) - but it's quite an interesting one rather than "stupid". Raises ideas about authenticity and what people are doing when they go to look at artifacts in museums. There HAVE been paintings, for instance, hung in galleries for years that have turned out to be forgeries but - for a long time people were happy staring at the "art". Also, ones that have been restored beyond a point where they are pretty much not the original piece. How much would it alter things if the Marbles were all replaced with exact replicas at the British Museum?

Isn't there a conspiracy theory that everything on show at the British Museum is a replica anyway and that the real artifacts are carefully stored elsewhere?

It's great. I've been using it for nearly a year and it just works brilliantly.

Do you think I could get away with some serious financial crime if I just quoted the Psalms and declared I was a repentant sinner? I'd be happy to pray for any of my potential victims if that helps.

You might be in with a chance... of higher water bills. Just for your friends, of course.

I'm also not rich to start with and didn't go to public school either. I guess I just need to learn my place and celebrate the achievements of others.

Just heard Tice on LBC being questioned about all the lying and he used being a Christian as a defence. Everyone sins, he told Tom Swarbrick.

Anyone able to give me career advice about how to become a Thames Water executive? Doesn't look hard to do and you keep getting bonuses!

I struggled to understand his Brexit stance - a bit like Mick Lynch. Something about EU membership preventing future nationalisation.

I'm more interested in his other international views... though I should really just look it up.

Which ones? Genuinely interested.

That's probably the best way of dealing with it.

That's one of the issues, isn't it? I recently found someone who only responded to comments about Margaret Thatcher, challenging negative comments about her. This person's history went back years and ALL of the comments (thousands!) only challenged negative ones about her. It could have been a bot, of course, but if real, it was a pretty weird way of engaging online. That goes beyond contrarianism, it's some sort of "distributed sealioning" maybe?
