Yes we have Jonny and every time you ignore the actual court records of the convictions and crimes committed.

Pure imagination. Farage’s milk shake assailants is a first time offender, she’s caused £17.50 worth of damage, which she has to pay $171.50 reparations, she’s sentenced to 13 weeks in prison suspended for 12 months, she has to perform 120hrs of unpaid work, has £450 of court fees to pay and now has a criminal record. Hardly ‘carte Blanche’.

Back to your misrepresentation of the crimes online hate mongers and incisors of violent race rioting were jailed for.

What amazes me is that whole post is premised on a false claim in the opening sentence.

The UK remains accountable under the terms withdrawal treaty the signed up to.

They did enact tax laws that facilitated the tax evasion tactics that the large out of town business take advantage of.

“Britain’s High Streets Face an Uncertain Future Amid Mounting Pressures” is something that has been decades in the making.

It’s time for a reigning of the business rates system. Bricks and mortar businesses in town centers pay business rates based upon assessments of customer access, often referred to as ‘foot fall’ the principle needs to be applied to online business to put them on a level paying field. The tax loopholes used by international retail businesses ‘transfer pricing’ also places these businesses at clear economic advantage over local businesses while facilitating tax avoidance at cost to the treasury and UU economy. Add to that ‘business splitting, another tax avoidance scheme used by franchise businesses, many of which are international companies and it is clear local businesses are at a significant disadvantage to their dominant, tax and business rate avoiding, competitors.

There’s a surprise.

That’s two points I find myself in agreement with these particular Republicans.

That’s not a reading of Ireland’s statement that I subscribe to and therefore cannot answer your questions. I certainly do not see Ireland’s petition as ‘supporting Palestinians’ beyond the obvious humanitarian context.

A bit of good news for a change. Clearly he put himself in this mess, he’s lucky to have survived. Go home and stay home.

Not too smart in the choices of the company he keeps.

I agree with Ireland’s statement within their press release: “Ireland’s view of the Convention is broader and prioritises the protection of civilian life’ I do not necessarily believe the intent is to ‘get a conviction in court’, Ireland has made no statement on intent beyond broadening the ‘interpretation of the convention’.

Israel is of course entirely within its rights to withdraw its embassy in response to Ireland joining the ICJ petition, why it hasn’t done so for Egypt, Spain and Mexico is a curiosity. But perhaps Israel and its supporters should pause to consider Ireland’s point of view, not only is it just as entirely within Ireland’s rights to hold and express that view, it is also rooted in Ireland’s own history of oppression and hunger. Well done to Ireland, learning from its own bitter history of oppression, hunger and the jack boot of occupation. https://www.lemonde.fr/en/m-le-mag/article/2024/04/01/ireland-europe-s-most-pro-palestinian-nation-we-too-have-known-oppression-and-famine_6666995_117.html

The fact that Israel is removing its embassy from Dublin while not doing so from other nations that are signatories to the ICJ petition is not widely reported, refer Guardian report I linked above. It is however a curious anomaly. I’m with Ireland on this, ‘Ireland’s view of the Convention is broader and prioritises the protection of civilian life ’ (refer Irish Government press release linked above) ought not to be contentious.

Israel has responded by stating it will close its embassy in Dublin (surely one of the more pleasant diplomatic duty posts), while curiously not closing its embassies in the capitals of other nations that have joined the petition to the ICJ, specifically Egypt, Spain and Mexico. https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2024/dec/15/middle-east-israel-syria-gaza-lebanon-latest-live-news

Well done Ireland.

The official Irish Government press release is linked below: https://www.gov.ie/en/press-release/1bfcd-tanaiste-announces-irelands-intervention-in-proceedings-at-the-international-court-of-justice/ This statement refers to Ireland’s view on the ‘interpretation of the convention’: "Ireland’s view of the Convention is broader and prioritises the protection of civilian life – as a committed supporter of the Convention, the government will promote that interpretation in its intervention in this case.”

I did, I even pointed out the editorial opinion in the article you linked. I’m pleased you accept it’s an opinion, there is a long history of opinions shared by others turning out to be false. Pelosi did not sympathize with the killer. In respect of Pelosi’s actual world, ‘people can only be pushed so far’, do you think she was making a factual observation? Or is there no limit to how far ‘people can be pushed’?

It’s an opinion that has been distributed by headlines such as the one you have posted. Headlines that make claims not substantiated by the article they proceed are nothing new. Pelosi did not ‘sympathize’ with the killer. And in respect of this thread, there is no evidence that the ‘woke’ are responsible for making the killer the cultural icon he clearly is.

It’s a headline, an opinion. The only bit attributed to Pelosi is the statement ‘People can only be pushed so far’. So in respect of Pelosi’s actual world, ‘people can only be pushed so far’, do you think she was making a factual observation? Or is there no limit to how far ‘people can be pushed’?

There is no proof of something that didn’t happened.

How has that worked out?

There is a whole lot of difference. The escalation and involvement of U.S. forces being the most obvious.
