  1. I’m quite certain that your offshore oil company accommodation was built and maintained in full compliance to industry and national safety standards. Genuine asylum seekers should indeed be afforded a home in the UK and bogus applicants should be deported, perhaps the Government should get on with the job of assessing their claims.
  2. What could go wrong?: https://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/1797720/bibby-stockholm-asylum-barge-fire-risk/amp
  3. It’s taken fourteen years of concerted effort to get there but, yes, I think you are right. A total clown show.
  4. Plenty of time for home owners to move off their fixed term mortgage interest payments onto the new very much higher rates. Plenty of time for the NHS backlog to grow bigger. Plenty of time for more Government failures, more Tory sleaze and as Tory MPs see their seat at risk, Tory infighting.
  5. I didn’t allude, I made a direct statement. I’ve read a lot of your posts, I naturally draw my own conclusions.
  6. I don’t see the Republicans have a way out of selecting Trump as their candidate, a mess of their own making. The ‘Republican Party’ doesn’t really exist anymore, it’s been replaced by an extremist cult. The party of ‘small government’ now focussed on controlling the minutiae of citizens lives.
  7. Well maybe, but don’t get your hopes up: https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4137314-roughly-half-of-republicans-in-new-poll-would-not-vote-for-trump-if-hes-convicted-of-felony/amp/
  8. It’s not a matter of what most Americans think, it’s a matter of what a jury of 12 think. They, unlike ‘most Americans’ will get to see and hear the evidence firsthand with no intermediaries telling them what to think. [edit] Multiple juries of 12 Americans. Multiple juries of other Americans have already decided there is good cause to send the accusations against Trump to trial.
  9. All that kowtowing to a viscous dictator and saluting Generals at the top of arguably the most oppressive regime on the planet. How could we forget?!
  10. Witness intimidation, hours after being warned by a Federal Judge not to engage in witness intimidation. Methinks Trump is deliberately trying to get himself thrown in the slammer and paint himself as a martyr. It’s right out of Cult Leader 101 and would play well to his supporters, foreign and domestic, who are wedded to self indulgence in grievance politics.
  11. Saving Japanese citizens was not a consideration. US strategic, political, military objectives where what informed the decision to dtlrop the bombs.
  12. Just in time to put an end to Stalin’s plans to join the pacific war and take Japanese territory.
  13. Apparently he’s not happy with the judge because she addressed him as Mr Trump. Well that and the fact that he himself didn’t appoint her. And a couple of other things.
  14. I look forward to your protests of Trump being tried before a judge that he himself appointed.
  15. Thank you for the link: Actually the proposed order goes significantly further: Trump has until Monday evening to respond and has been denied motion for more time (to delay).
  16. Trump supporters are bang on the trajectory of denial I predicted from the beginning. Trump supporters don’t accept the allegations agains their ‘leader’, they don’t accept the investigation, they don’t accept the indictments, they won’t accept the trial, they wont accept any evidence or testimony against Trump, they will not accept any guilty verdict, they will not accept any sentencing. Trump, to use his own words “I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose voters,” I’m sure he’ll loose voters, but I doubt very much he’ll lose any ‘deplorables’.
  17. And millions more jailed for crimes they actually committed.
  18. Can you please provide a link to the source of the text you are quoting. I’d like to read the bits you aren’t quoting.
  19. Trump has only just gotten started with his threats. He’s working himself up to once again inciting violence. His rhetoric will become more violent and inflammatory as he gets closer to trial and as more indictments pile up against him.
