  1. I see you’ve grasped the rudiments of probability. So how is the closure of a few failing private schools impact the next generation’s ‘brightest prospects’?
  2. You do understand tariffs are taxes? Keep an eye on your Social Security.
  3. On the basis of probability they exist in the highest numbers amongst the students in State schools.
  4. Except: https://www.carbonbrief.org/analysis-clean-energy-was-top-driver-of-chinas-economic-growth-in-2023/
  5. Yes of course they are. Economies of scale are not a thing.
  6. Because of course those are the only zero carbon sources of energy?
  7. I believe a trade deal with the U.S. on very easy terms was on the wish list.
  8. In fairness the facts suggest otherwise: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/jan/09/home-office-says-record-number-of-asylum-seekers-deported-since-july
  9. And yet the technology is improving rapidly. And of course wind energy is only one part of the Renewables available to the UK.
  10. There’s been a change of Government Jonny. The NHS is getting back to be the much loved institution it was the last time Labour were in power: https://news.sky.com/story/extra-two-million-nhs-appointments-in-labours-first-five-months-figures-show-13310872
  11. Is that even true? Nobody in the UK is bankrupted by medical bills.
  12. You’ve not seen the latest polling: Farage’s fawning around Trump is costing him support. Your fantasy of importing Trump’s madness to the UK is folly, by the time of the next UK election comes around Trump will be out of office and the damage his policies have done will be on full display. Meanwhile even Badenoch has, with many Tories, come around to accepting the UK needs to work with the EU to fill the gap Trump has created. You should take some time to enjoy Farage wallowing about as he tries to reset his messaging on Trump and Europe: https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/51739-how-have-recent-developments-in-ukraine-affected-favourability-ratings
  13. Sunak didn’t ‘ruin BREXIT’, it is the failure it was always going to be. The Tories didn’t’ let Labour in’ the electorate made that decision. Sunak had is chance, he lined the pockets of the rich while stripping money from the rest of society. Renewables and net zero are creating jobs and boosting the economy, something Sunak failed to do.
  14. Net zero is creating jobs and boosting the economy: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/feb/24/britain-net-zero-economy-booming-cbi-green-sector-jobs-energy-security
  15. Jonny, this is a discussion forum. If you don’t want to read opinions that upset you, don’t read them. Nobody is forcing you to read anything here, it’s all your own choice.
  16. “One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter” I recommend caution with that argument,
  17. Shall we file that under ‘Under estimating an adversary’?!
  18. I would prefer Trump had not sent a clear signal that he will not back allies under attack from tyrants like Putin. He has made wars more likely by signaling his weakness.
  19. As has always been the case for ‘white collar crime’.
  20. What peace deal has Trump tried to negotiate? Please provide actual evidence.
  21. It’s perhaps more related to Cambridge University investing in Israeli arms manufacturers.
  22. Except the protection of allies, particularly one that produces so much of the technology hardware the U.S. relies on, is definitely in the interests of the U.S. Trump has sent a message that he is unwilling to defend America’s allies, the Chinese and others have heard that message.
