But it's right if that's the British standard! Not like British English is without inconsistency, is it (such as my ability to use a double negative there, for example!)

There’s only one mathematics.
(Yeah I agree math sounds weird)
People are struggling with lend and borrow. Leave maths for another day.
Absolutely!
Same as gotten in Coventry Telegraph copy. What's that all about?!?
maths is short for math(ematic)s in my book and besides, the yanks can't even say "for God's sake" in the right order so bollocks to them .Actually it’s math, the Yanks are right on this one as much as it pains me.
Math vs. Maths « The Word Detective
Count me out. Dear Word Detective: I am a sometimes math teacher. Occasionally, even a mathematics teacher. As such, I follow the latest and greatest on my subject and am troubled by the increasing use of the word "maths." I know you usually look backward to enlighten us on words, but here we...www.word-detective.com
Its slightly where the boats are coming from . You haven't a bloody clue have you. Do you know where France actually is ?Why are you so obsessed with France and the French?
You can say math, but you'll be told your a twat. It sounds stupid , let's face it.I don't care about the grammar, we say maths, and therefore that's British way of saying it
That goes back to the issue of not having a proper system in place before we start chucking bombs about. Syria is a perfect example. Over 5m refugees fleeing a country we have bombed but nothing put in place so they all head to Turkey and Greece until they are overwhelmed. Also allows non-Syrian refugees to mix in and before you even start you're in a mess.It's all well and good getting up in arms about children dying crossing the channel, but it seems to me as if it gets swept over that they are usually not children, women, or in fact families. This is my biggest gripe. Having compassion doesn't mean you need to take your brain out and be ignorant.
Hahahahaha. 1000 don't want to come over in one day . Hilarious .
Two years ago you'd have laughed at your magical 13.
Did you think up that Coventry city analogy all by yourself ?
And it's maths, not math. Tosser
Absolutely!

If you want to go round saying aluminum and math then that's fine. If you want to say dyper, sidewalk , for God sakes etc that's fine too. If you want to say muffler and hood that's greatNot exactly the most important point but math is just as acceptable as maths. Look at the word - mathematics. It's not mathsematics.
Same as aluminium. Aluminum is actually correct as that's what the guy that discovered it called it. We just decided to add an extra i in because so many others elements end in -ium.
If it was all pomp and words didn’t mean anything then let’s keep it but it’s a false narrative and words do mean something. I love music and the pomp of the proms but the nationalism verges on places I don’t wish to go.Anyway, should Land of Hope and Glory be banned ? They're thinking of withdrawing it from the last night of the proms .
Is that the right move, opportunistic or a load of bollocks ?
I'd rather ban any music which promoted guns and knives to be honest.If it was all pomp and words didn’t mean anything then let’s keep it but it’s a false narrative and words do mean something. I love music and the pomp of the proms but the nationalism verges on places I don’t wish to go.
That’s social commentary. It’s always happened. Did the music born in the Great Depression cause a continuation of the Great Depression? Of course not, it was social commentary, same as music that is labelled as promoting something else.I'd rather ban any music which promoted guns and knives to be honest.
Also, no one’s banned it. They’re just considering dropping it this year at the last night. Drama queen.I'd rather ban any music which promoted guns and knives to be honest.

It'll offend someone though.Stupid idea and hope it doesn’t happen. Literally no one is asking for it.
It'll offend someone though.
Clitoris was offensive in " peaches" so they had to change that.
This must be even more offensive. To whom I don't know.
Not sure you understand how the proms works..Once it's gone it's gone. Ugly bastard.
Yeah agree , isn't that cancel culture?I hate this preemptive strike stuff. It doesn’t help anyone and more often than not gets people upset at a vulnerable group because they think they’re overreacting.
If thousands of black people were on the streets complaining about it that’s one thing. I’d never heard anyone say it’s even a slight issue and I run in some pretty left wing online circles.
Not sure you understand how the proms works.
By the way. It’s still available on Apple Music. Can’t say the same about a lot of these songs that you claim promote gun crime. Not sure you understand the definition of the word banned either.
Yeah, I know it's not been " banned" as such but it sounds like it's an in house ban to me.
Do I know what the word " banned" means ? I think I do but I'm sure a condescending superior life form like you can send me a definition.
How do you type with your head up your arse ?
Thanks Gideon. Not sure one gives a faaaack whether the songs one claims to be about gun crime are on Apple Music ? That's like so not the point ?Not sure you understand how the proms works.

Censored?Yeah, I know it's not been " banned" as such but it sounds like it's an in house ban to me.

A bit strong , wingy. Perhaps simply "withdraw" for reasons ...er...oh God knows.Censored?
