  1. I’ve played a lot of sports, still do. There’s winning moves and there’s wasted energy. The trick is to know which is which before you make the effort.
  2. Oh no, he’s going to get away with it all.
  3. Half the people don’t support him.
  4. More baseless innuendo and hogwash conspiracy nonsense.
  5. Private capital is already pouring out of China, much of it headed into Thailand and certainly to the laundromat that is London.
  6. That might of course be your experience, but then again it might not be.
  7. In a thread discussing poverty...... but but but what about the millionaires!
  8. So you didn't read the links I sent 'Always have spoken' is not the same thing as spoke their own language 'all the time'. I've always spoken my own language but I certainly do not speak my own language 'all the time'. I see you are now not disputing that the UK has been multicultural for centuries.
  9. I certainly was in the UK thirty years ago and I was there all this summer. I see a lot of improvements over that time, though a dramatic decline over the past ten years, non of which is related to immigration.
  10. Perhaps it does, but then economics might not be your strong point. https://www.economist.com/britain/2022/06/09/britains-productivity-problem-is-long-standing-and-getting-worse?utm_medium=cpc.adword.pd&utm_source=google&ppccampaignID=18156330227&ppcadID=&utm_campaign=a.22brand_pmax&utm_content=conversion.direct-response.anonymous&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI4LGwgqyQgQMVUhKDAx0u2wEOEAAYASAAEgJn-vD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
  11. Putting aside the fact the UK is a nation of mixed cultures and languages and has been for centuries of recorded history, Welsh, Irish, Scotts and their respective languages. The UK has for centuries been home to numerous diasporas, European Jews, and the Huguenots being two example. https://jewishmuseum.org.uk/schools/asset/interns-choice-the-jewish-naturalisation-act-1753/ https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10146427/1/PhD Whole 4.5 (1).pdf https://www.museumoflondon.org.uk/discover/languages-london Always a pleasure to provide a teaching lesson for a ‘teacher’. Please get back to me with a quotation of me stating immigrants to the UK spoke their own language ‘all the time’. If you can’t produce evidence of me making such a claim I’ll accept you made it up.
  12. If you are going to base an argument on the ‘strength of the British economy’ then you might want to include the measure of economic performance that determine its long term health ‘productivity’: https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/sn02791/
  13. Here’s a link for you, enjoy: https://www.newstatesman.com/culture/2018/08/how-second-world-war-made-britain-multicultural
  14. There’s no such thing as ‘zero chance’. Your unsupported assertions of EU ‘punishing’ the UK is noted.
  15. Immigrant communities have existed in the UK for centuries and have always spoken their own languages. I was at a BBQ party last week, most of the twenty people attending were speaking Thai. There’s nothing new in any of this.
  16. There was no ‘dream of creating a multi cultural society’. The UK is a multi cultural society and has been for decades before the EU appeared.
  17. So you admit to being persuadable by political considerations and project that weakness on others.
  18. To answer the question ‘what is it?’ Fabricated propaganda nonsense.
  19. The point to consider is who will be the Republican candidate if the GOP ever regains its sanity. The Democrats will then field a candidate to challenge the Republican offering, Of course the GOP regaining sanity before candidate selection is a bit of a stretch.
  20. Beyond the timing being determined by judicial process and somewhat delayed by attempts by Trump associates to avoid giving evidence, do care to explain why the timings are, as you claim, ‘not accidental’?
  21. Pelosi? Where did that come from? There’s a reason why you don’t call 290 million relatively minor, it’s because you don’t understand hyper wealth and the control the hyper wealthy have over US politics.
  22. You start with the false premise of a weaponized DoJ and then wander into pure conspiracy laced speculation.
  23. It’s not the relatively minor wealth of politicians that is distorting US politics, it’s the open door given to the hyper wealthy to buy control over policies. Its well past time to get rid of the perversely named ‘Citizens United’.
