  1. The UK is the junior partner and way back behind other more significant partners. The US will get around to a US/UK trade agreement eventually, maybe. I thought this had been explained very many times. Even Truss grasped this truth.
  2. Nothing to do with JoeBiden. ” States which have ethnic disputes or external territorial disputes, including irredentist claims, or internal jurisdictional disputes must settle those disputes by peaceful means in accordance with OSCE principles. Resolution of such disputes would be a factor in determining whether to invite a state to join the Alliance.” https://www.nato.int/docu/basictxt/enl-9502.htm
  3. He’s not ‘missing’, he’s on the lam. He’s not ‘a witness’ he’s an indicted suspect of felony crimes.
  4. You are confusing the BBC’s role and responsibilities as journalists with the BBC’s role and responsibility as an employer. Perhaps innocently so.
  5. I think the BBC, as an employer, should have made a police report as soon as allegations were made. I believe that The Sun, as a newspaper, should have made a police report as soon as they came into possession of evidence and if they have evidence that should have been presented to the police.
  6. When his words align with his actions.
  7. I personally believe the correct body to investigate allegations of sexual abuse is the police, but an accusation is not guilt and the BBC would be right such serious accusation to the police regardless of whether or not they have seen evidence to back up the allegation. But don’t let that stop you wandering into the well trodden path of ‘no smoke without fire’.
  8. Seems to me like you find it more of an uncomfortable truth.
  9. Ah but not the victim of a major newspaper publishing extremely serious allegations without presenting any evidence. As I said above, I suspect there’s a great deal of twitching going on at The Sun right now, it certainly has earned the tag ‘Gutter Press’. And not just at The Sun, a number of people were eager to post names with implicit or implied accusations on social media. Perhaps the chance for some Justice to be dished out for those happy to libel others.
  10. Families are often messy things, but I doubt the ‘so called victim’ will be able to file suit for libel.
  11. Making unfounded accusations of criminal activity is a serious matter. People being accused without evidence of serious crimes, particularly sexual crimes against a young person, is definitely something I find concerning.
  12. Not so quickly, we can now look forward to the consequences for those making false accusations of serious crime.
  13. How many are under criminal investigation, indictment or already convicted?
  14. They might argue, but they never present any credible evidence.
  15. Because I don’t care, the alleged victim’s lawyers says it’s all made there was no wrongdoing.
  16. Abstains is one vote, voting with the opposition is two votes in their favor.
  17. Who cares about the gender of a victim whom is by the admission of their own lawyer not a victim of wrong doing? Without evidence of a crime then the real victims here are the BBC and the male employees of the BBC maligned by a baseless accusation. But then perhaps that was the whole intention.
  18. How did you wedge honesty into this. Being ill tempered at failing staff had absolutely nothing to do with honesty, other than being honest about one’s disappointment at their failure to perform up to expectations.
  19. In the absence of ketchup splatted on the walls of the Oval Office I say this is a nothing burger.
  20. Being angry at someone for failing to do their job is not talking down or disrespecting them. Unless of course you think people who fail to keep the President they work for should be given hugs for not keeping him informed.
