Just curious there were 19 other incidents like this in France yesterday. Why have you, and the media picked this one out?

 

Oh i get it. 

19 other terrorist killings. Really? You have a link to back that up?

Only Rachel from accounts could be so dumb as to 'go for growth' by making it more expensive for businesses to hire staff.

The economic stupidity and total lack of common sense is mind-boggling.

I would be interested to hear views expressed v news source preference.

Most people who voted Labour are suffering 'buyer's remorse', although Guardian readers will of course be hanging on to their faith by their fingernails. Those that have any functioning brain cells can see what's about to hit them from across the Atlantic. The return of common sense, and the UK will be obliged to follow suit. 

Local elections will be a disaster for Labour and will show clearly which way the wind of public opinion is blowing.

From day one of this Labour Government the Telegraph’s campaign to ferment public frustration has been growing, and shows no sign of abating.

It doesn't need any fermenting. The frustration is palpable here in the UK. You just need to talk to anyone on the street.

While the Tories' failures could be blamed on incompetence, many people feel this Labour government is setting out to deliberately destroy the UK, root and branch.

Has anyone here been to China recently? 

if you're going to Beijing or Shanghai you'll love it. I just got back from a trip to both. Safe, clean, modern, fully-functioning cities. Get around by Didi (equivalent of Grab). More food choices than in Bangkok. Watch out for the 'silent killers' (electric motor bikes everywhere). Take high-speed trains between cities.

"Britain could adopt a balanced approach that prioritizes fairness and common sense without veering into unnecessary virtue-signaling.  The question is whether Britain still remembers what those values are."

The majority of Britons do remember what those values are, but their wishes have been ignored by the governing elites for at least a quarter of a century. We have far greater problems than gender-neutral toilets.

The police should get away from their computer screens trawling for 'Non-crime hate incidents' and get back on the streets arresting real criminals. Meanwhile, burglaries, shoplifting and car thefts are no longer even investigated.  Hundreds of fighting-age young men arrive on our shores every week in rubber dinghies, to be housed, fed and given mobile phones at the taxpayers' expense.

Those winds of change from across the Pond can't come soon enough.

You get news from RT & FOX?  Two media entities which are nothing more than a propaganda outlets

Propaganda works both ways. You think the Guardian is unbiased? 

Confusing only to Guardian readers, wringing their hands over 'tyranny'. Trump has started his second term with a clear plan of action, and is determined not to be derailed this time around by the deep state.

As a Washington outsider in 2016, he was advised to choose deep state insiders in key positions who could be easily manipulated. They blocked or watered down his policies to their own agenda. This time he has a team of loyalists who know exactly how to get things done. It will be fun to watch.

No more First Class flights and 5-star-hotels? I don't think so...

So they weren't all working from home then?

Great to see the Davos crowd squirming in their seats as Trump tells them a few home truths. Even more fun was Javier Milei's speech. Pity he didn't bring his chainsaw with him.
