  1. Except there isn’t the exodus the rightwing has been claiming would be inevitable: https://www.theguardian.com/education/2025/mar/10/no-exodus-to-state-sector-after-vat-added-to-private-school-fees-say-english-councils
  2. Congratulations, you managed to vomit your both your LGBT and your immigrant fixations into a topic that isn’t about either.
  3. How about you present some actual facts rather than your bare faced lie that Ukraine is not a country.
  4. I don’t want any more to die. How much more encouragement to invade other countries do you wish to provided Putin, or indeed any other tyrant?
  5. The ‘only following orders’ defense. Where have heard that before?
  6. I think not caving to Putin and providing Ukraine with the military and financial assistance they need, rather than withdrawing that assistance, is a good start.
  7. No I’m making the factual observation that Trump is nice again doing exactly what Putin wants. I’m blaming Trump because it is Trump who is choosing to do Putin’s bidding.
  8. I believe the original plan was 3 days. How did that go?
  9. Yup, Trump doing exactly what Putin wants. Again.
  10. I’ve no idea. I’m in Thailand. What does your hunch tell you about the veterans who are planning nationwide protests for March 14?
  11. I don’t think there’s evidence it’s ‘lefties’. But there is definitely evidence that large numbers of people are not happy with the mess Trump and Musk are making. Steve Barron, who is not a ‘leftie’ is vociferous in his criticism of Musk, DOGE and the betrayal of Trump’s election promises. He refers to Musk as ‘a parasitic illegal immigrant’. Meanwhile Veterans are planning nationwide protests for 14 March. You might need to revise your ‘blame the lefties’ thing; https://bloomingtonian.com/2025/03/06/veterans-called-to-rally-nationwide-on-march-14-2025-in-protest-of-project-2025-and-va-cuts/
  12. Nice to get you on record that 3-10% inflation is dumb.
  13. In the meantime not a good time to own a Tesla, certainly not a good time to park it in the street.
  14. Here you go: https://mikejohnson.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=1415 https://www.newsweek.com/us-faces-new-axis-evil-iran-china-russia-mitch-mcconnell-1836775
  15. Or an axis to suck up to. Forgive me, I’ a few days late. Let me be the first to welcome you to the forum, it’s always nice to at least have the possibility of hearing new points of view.
  16. Economist Gary Stevenson provides an explanation of why and how that is happening. It has nothing to do with immigrants.
  17. Correct. But as I stated both Mike Johnson and Mitch McConnell both used the term differently. I expect it will be used again in the future.
  18. Yes precisely the charade Lowe has called out. Reform UK claims over 200,000 ‘member’, the idea that 50% would ever write a letter to replace the leader is as contrived as the 50% of MPs biting to change the leader (but there must be at least 100 MPs first). Party policies set by the leadership with ‘input forum members’, no means for members to disagree, or set policies through their membership, Lowe’s criticism of not being given sight of Reform policies before they are made public suggests what’s written in the Reform ‘procedures’ is st odds with actual Reform procedure.
  19. You’ve made statement which can’t possibly be true unless the left are opposing a peace deal. So where’s the evidence of the peace deal?
  20. Can you please provide details of or evidence that Trump has presented a peace plan or indeed that Zelensky has rejected any peace plan offered by Trump?
  21. You do seem to be. These not claims I have ever made.
  22. I think it would be more correct to say Trump has joined what both Mike Johnson and Mitch McConnell referred to as the Axis of Evil.
