She’s simply repeating obnoxious views she had previously recorded in the book she coauthored ‘Unchained Britannia’. I’d buy a copy of it were printed on softer paper.

The green and sunny uplands?!

Odd you should ask that question, just as it appears someone in Government has no intention of you or anyone else finding out: “Thérèse Coffey, the work and pensions secretary, said she would not publish five reports or research on the benefit cap, deaths of benefits claimants, the impact of universal credit (UC), and benefit sanctions, and that she had no plans to publish two further reports on unpaid carers and work capability assessments.” https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/aug/14/british-minister-accused-of-trying-to-hide-reports-on-impact-of-tory-welfare-reforms

I’ve invited you to pin it. You should. I have.

If Trump is indicted you’ll cry foul. If Trump is sent to trial you’ll cry foul. If Trump is convicted you’ll cry foul. Feel free to pin this comment.

Of course, if working people can’t pay their bills they will demand higher pay, perhaps resorting to industrial action (as is their right). Millions of people in a wealthy nation having to choose between ‘Heating and Eating’, millions of others already struggling to afford food. Clearly this is not going to be tolerated for long. Well done Starmer for proposing practical and costed help to millions of people struggling with extortionate energy prices.

Smart messaging and very smart timing from Labour. Millions of people up and down the nation are struggling to pay bills, millions are already in debt to energy companies at a time when warm weather might otherwise have given them chance to pay back debt/build credit. And these millions have in mind the certain fact more price hikes are in the pipeline. These millions are also being treated to an incumbent Tory PM refusing point blank to help them, while two more Tories vie for his job, the front runner of which has stated no more handouts. Labour has offered a clear, simple and costed proposal that addresses the concerns of people being driven into poverty by energy bills at a time when oil and gas companies are raking in vast profits. The electorate have time to hear these proposals, measure them against their own needs and ponder this while the Tories continue for weeks more of internal wrangling with nothing but more pain on offer for the millions facing a choice between ‘Heating and Eating’. Well done Starmer, spot on target!

Let’s dispense with your failure to have heard the FBI found TS/SCI documents when they searched Mar-a-Largo: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-62527628 This should save you going through the trouble of posting misinformed suggestions that nothings has been found

You need to catch up. TS/SCI documents were found and recovered. I have explained before, this represents a two fold threat. Firstly a threat to Trump who now seems to explain his possession of these TS/SCI documents, months after his own attorneys has submitted signed statement that all documents had been returned. Secondly there is the far more serious threat to National security arising from who might have had access to these documents. The upshot is we can be certain this investigation is only just getting started. The documents recovered are evidence of both serious crime and extremely serious threats to national security. This is going to get nasty.

Again, I’ve not claimed there is an indictment, I’ve not claimed anything has been proven in court. On multiple occasions I explained the process by which an indictment is obtained, this will all take time. In the meantime the FBI are entirely justified in keeping the scope and breadth of the investigations under wraps. That they are doing so is not evidence of anything other than following cautious procedure to protect on going investigations.

Really, so a conspiracy between the Dems, the DoJ, the FBI and the Federal Judge that signed the warrant. Please, keep your imagination within the realms of the real fact based world. Investigations are on going, be patient. We don’t need your ludicrous conspiracy theory, simply because it is ludicrous.

I’ve never once suggested that evidence of crime is equivalent to a conviction. Please quell your histrionics.

There are numerous reasons why the FBI might very legitimately withhold the arguments they made to get the warrant, tipping off the target(s) of their investigations is the most obvious. For example: The scope and breadth of the investigation. The cooperation of witnesses within the target(s)’ immediate sphere. The ongoing use of wire taps or other means of surveillance. The inclusion within the investigation of coconspirators. Just a few very reasonable reasons, but I’m sure there are many more, But don’t fret. If the FBI proceeds to an indictment, it is then that they shall provide the target(s)’ defense teams with all evidence gathered - Not before.

Shock! The FBI seek warrants from Judges when the FBI have reasonable cause to believe a crime has been committed or is in progress. Judges authorize warrants when the FBI have demonstrated to the Judge that they have good cause to believe a crime has been committed or is in progress. Who knew?!

Belief that one has a right is not a defense in a court of law.

This is a discussion forum, it’s not any part of deliberations within the criminal Justice system. The presumption of innocence is not applicable to personal opinions and personal opinions differ. Please try to come to terms with this.

Why would I need whataboutary, I have no desire at all to make this about anything but Trump. But Trump’s past words and behavior are relevant where they intersect with the matter in hand.

‘I’ve got the best people, the very best people’. Always the best people. 2022 is turning into a refreshing torrent of Justice. I unabashedly claim credit for my early calling 2022 a year of Justice. I’m almost blissed out.

It’s being reported that more sealed submissions to the court have been made on the M-a-L search warrant docket.

There are a number of posts scattered throughout this thread in which individuals with experience working with classified documents explain the principles of document storage and handling. That a thief did not follow those principles when stealing documents is not a surprise and is not evidence of any of the conspiracy theories you refer too. But you are correct, questions need to be answered on how these documents wound up in boxes at Mar-a-Largo. It is Donald Trump who needs to answer those questions. Thank you for raising this important point.

No more so that the ‘lock her up’ chants that were the encore of so many Trump and rightwing rallies.

To be fair, you have used a cartoon as your compelling evidence.

Opinions differ, but I personally think it’s very good.

Just getting the docs back will never be enough. It needs to be known who has seen them.

We all know what is the topic of discussion, and for those who occasionally forget it’s still there at the top of the thread
