How about we stop doing the American thing of giving storms names.
Although, does make for an interesting conversation

My garden gate was killed.
Everyone else is expected to die in heavy rain and flooding later today. The bodies that aren't washed away on the floodwaters are expected to be swept up by more strong winds over the weekend. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

But unlike the Yanks, being modern British Libtards, we feel the need to give our first storm a Muslim name, to come across as inclusive. How very nice. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

Otoh, you could interpret that as choosing a name from the evil enemy, that represent a threat to us
Or maybe the guy that chose it was a muslim.
Or maybe a computer dished it up.
Or maybe they were thinking of Mohammed Ali, because they thought the storm would deliver a hefty punch.
Or maybe....etc. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Or maybe its a plot by Teresa May to take attention away from the Russian poisoning plot and to put the blame of the 2 death with ISIS, as it was a very complex terrorist attack ____________________ Current Bike: Honda CG125 ES4 // Honda CB600FS Hornet // Triumph Street Triple R |

Had a cartoon moment on the bike yesterday, luckily, a not very large branch blew off a tree and landed in my lap whilst out riding!! Fortunately, I didn't have to stop, just had to pull it off me and throw it to the side !!

You were lucky. The only reason you survived was because the particular tree it came from wasn't very nasty really. Its bark was worse than its bite...
Note to self: must try harder.

Oh, it's sheer coincidence, not a cut down coincidence, no hyphen !! I thought you worked in IT, could you at least get your spell checker working !!
Anyhow, can you provide proof that it's not named after Ali Campbell

It was correct when they had women's names. Unpredictable, dangerous, spectacular, frightening. All things that apply to a woman when she is in a bad mood. ____________________ Triumph Trophy Launch Edition |

What's your point? Do you think the Paddy's selected the Muslim name or the UK Met Office? Both were involved.
The names are put forward by the public (guess which community pushed the "Ali" suggestion), then the Met Office/Paddy Met Office choose which ones give the best virtue signalling results.
Making the first one of the season a Muslim one, is a first, as is picking a Muslim name. Why do you think that might be? ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

I think it was because they wanted to wind YOU up further, for the entertainment value it provides to everyone else, because a happy population is a quiescent population

So do all the possible English or Irish names suggested, they just didn't feel "inclusive" enough, so once again we pander to the minority to score SJW points. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.
