  1. Actually it wasn't just the Met but also the Welsh Police. The Metropolitan Police and South Wales Police looked at allegations against the BBC presenter and both said there was no information to indicate criminal offences had been committed. https://news.sky.com/story/no-criminal-offence-in-allegations-against-bbc-presenter-says-met-police-12919368
  2. It appears to be going ahead, this from a couple of weeks ago. A ‘Cage Match’ Between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg May Be No Joke The day after Elon Musk challenged Mark Zuckerberg on social media to “a cage match” this month, Dana White, president of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, received a text. It was from Mr. Zuckerberg, chief executive of Meta. He asked Mr. White, who heads the world’s premier mixed martial arts competition, which is fought in cage-like rings, if Mr. Musk was serious about a fight. Since then, Mr. White said, he has talked to the tech billionaires separately every night to organize the showdown. On Tuesday, he said, he was “on the phone with those two until 12:45 in the morning.” He added, “They both want to do it.” https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/01/technology/elon-musk-mark-zuckerberg-cage-match.html https://archive.ph/sdiyU
  3. DeSantis is not only crossing the line with his campaign videos but also in his claims on crime in Florida. Nearly half of Florida's population excluded from state crime data To attract Republican primary voters across the country, Gov. Ron DeSantis is pitching himself as a "law-and-order" presidential candidate. His proof: Florida's 50-year crime low. Yes, but: Nearly half of the state's population is excluded from 2021 crime figures estimated by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), according to data provided to Axios by The Marshall Project, a nonprofit newsroom covering criminal justice. Florida's participation rate in the FBI's national data collection is also the lowest of any state in the country. https://www.axios.com/local/tampa-bay/2023/07/12/florida-crime-data-incomplete-fbi-reporting
  4. Nah he needs a better aim, that hammer went straight over his head. If this was about Nato then why did Putin not take up peace talks with Zelensky when he offered to not join? Zelensky: We won’t join NATO if that brings peace Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Tuesday he is prepared to pledge that Ukraine wouldn’t join NATO, in a bid to broker a peace deal with Russia. https://nypost.com/2022/03/22/zelensky-we-wont-join-nato-if-that-brings-peace/
  5. Yes, it is........................ https://twitter.com/RishiSunak/status/1679097815232831490
  6. Interesting because the actual authors of the report were clear on the conclusions of the Proximal Origin report at the oversight committee meetings and its not the same as the Republicans are claiming. This published from the Washington Post yesterday. GOP probes covid origin paper as authors protest ‘absurd’ allegations Fauci, Collins and the virologists have denied the Republican allegations as baseless and politically motivated, saying they updated their positions as they studied the virus, and two of the paper’s authors defended their work in front of the panel on Tuesday. “Let me categorically say that these allegations are absurd and false,” Kristian Andersen, a Scripps Research scientist and co-author of the paper, testified in prepared remarks. The “conclusions stated in Proximal Origin were based on scientific data and analyses by a team of international scientists with extensive track records in studying virus emergence and evolution,” he said. “None of this work was influenced by Dr. Fauci.” https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2023/07/11/covid-origins-house-hearing-scientists/ https://archive.ph/k0Iaz
  7. I've already told you I don't think its ok for children to have gender surgery. The rare cases where I would agree are when born as intersex. I've already provided a link to facts that's its not happening.
  8. but there are people that think children having their penis cut off and a phony vagina fabricated from their anus is fine. Can you show me examples where this has happened to children aside from your speculation that this is what some people are thinking?
  9. Then you'd be pleased to know that surgery for gender affirming care is extremely rare in children: The fact check makes clear that gender affirming surgeries are NOT performed on children, and that, “In all cases, gender affirming surgeries are only performed after multiple discussions with both mental health providers and physicians (including endocrinologists and/or surgeons), to determine if surgery is the appropriate course of action.” https://www.hrc.org/press-releases/icymi-ap-debunks-extremist-claims-about-gender-affirming-care
  10. Is that so? Where has that been mentioned about Biden? One of around 8 million Americans who use one of these. President Biden has begun using a CPAP machine in recent weeks to help deal with sleep apnea, a common disorder in which one’s breathing is interrupted as one sleeps, White House officials said Wednesday. “Since 2008, the president has disclosed his history with sleep apnea in thorough medical reports,” said Andrew Bates, a White House spokesman. “He used a CPAP machine last night, which is common for people with that history.” https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/28/us/politics/biden-cpap-sleep-apnea.html https://archive.ph/mxHMu
  11. If he has then so be it but whats that to do with using a CPAP machine occasionally for sleep apnea which he has had for 10 years?
  12. He's had sleep apnea for around 10 years, what makes you think he's falling apart because he uses a CPAP occasionally?
  13. While we already know who it is and have done for a few days, the official line is still not clear. Particularly important when the alleged victim concerned denies any wrong doing or criminal activity has taken place. Public interest defence in naming presenter is complicated - campaigner "I think it is important we stress this isn't just about the presenter," Nathan says. "It's also about the individual who the Sun are presenting here as the victim in this case who sold the images. "When you name someone who is on the other end of this, you raise the risk of identifying the other person as well." Nathan also points out it is key the individual at the centre of the allegations has made denials via a lawyer there has been no wrongdoing or criminal activity. Quote Message: What was really inappropriate, particularly in this case, is the Sun did not mention the fact that the individual at the heart of this had either not been spoken to or had been spoken to and he had objected to the story going ahead and his own parents accounts." https://www.bbc.com/news/live/uk-66159469
  14. Yes but we already know unfounded speculation is their favourite go to when it involves Biden. Evidence does not figure god knows why.....lol
  15. Biden takes the following: The president takes five medications. Two are over-the-counter allergy medicines to treat seasonal allergies. And another, Pepcid, treats acid reflux, which is sometimes the cause of his throat clearing or coughing. The president also takes a blood thinner for a previously identified heart arrhythmia. And his doctor says he remains completely asymptomatic. He also takes Crestor, a statin medication to help control cholesterol. https://www.npr.org/2023/02/17/1157773608/the-presidents-personal-physician-has-issued-biden-a-clean-bill-of-health Anything else is pure speculation driven by remarks from Trump and claims by the ever so credible Tucker Carlson.
  16. A guy in his early twenties. Hardly seems a police matter but could indeed be a professional conduct issue. "The individual in their early 20s was first contacted anonymously by the male presenter on a dating app."
  17. Maybe in your head but not any one else. NATO’s door remains open to any European country in a position to undertake the commitments and obligations of membership, and contribute to security in the Euro-Atlantic area. The Black Sea is a marginal mediterranean sea of the Atlantic Ocean lying between Europe and ... It is bounded by Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania, Ukraine, Russia and Georgia
  18. Comer clutching at straws again................... House committee to receive briefing on cocaine found in White House The House Oversight and Accountability Committee will receive a briefing from the Secret Service on the cocaine found in the White House in early July. Austin Hacker, deputy communications director for Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), confirmed the Secret Service will brief the committee Thursday morning. Comer, committee chairman, sent a letter to Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle on Friday requesting a “staff-level” briefing on the matter. https://thehill.com/homenews/house/4091855-house-committee-to-receive-briefing-on-cocaine-found-in-white-house/
  19. The smart ones. "At least eight of those fake electors have taken immunity deals with Willis’s office." https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4091852-trump-case-georgia-grand-jury-sworn-in/
  20. Here we go, the nuclear weapon rhetoric once again. For your information the only war mongers in this has been the Russians when they invaded.
  21. "It is absurd to think that man can change earth' climate." Not true, man has already changed earths climate for the worse, its trying to reverse that now
  22. Its all so awkward for them now, after all, this fake whistleblower was their one hope to try and divert attention onto the Bidens and its just gone up in a puff of smoke.....lol Have to feel sorry for them, Comer just a couple of days ago saying this......lol "He's very credible and the people on MSNBC who made fun of me when I said we had an informant that was missing, they should feel like fools right now. And this is their worst nightmare."
  23. Same, displaying what an assertive leader should do, expect high standards with strong boundaries. Ted Kaufman, Biden's longtime chief of staff when the future president represented Delaware in the Senate, told Axios that Biden's process is policy-driven, and has made him a strong executive. "If there is something that's not in the brief, he's going to find it," he said. "It's not to embarrass people, it's because he wants to get to the right decision. Most people who have worked for him like the fact that he challenges them and gets them to a better decision." Biden's defenders acknowledge he can be tough. But they also say he can be more generous and compassionate than many powerful politicians and can make them feel like family. That's partly why so many aides have worked with Biden for decades, and go in and out of his orbit, they say. https://www.axios.com/2023/07/10/biden-temper-us-president
