Who knows? Perhaps he didn’t have the financial means to do so. I would suggest you ask him yourself but it seems he’s far too busy working hard for a better life. Good for him, good for America. The American dream is alive and well.

I feel Charles I would disagree

I suggest you read the history of the English Civil War.

Patriots don’t necessarily defend the monarch.

Putin makes categorical declaration to the whole nation of Russia that Russia is getting whipped ragged in the war of his own choosing.

Utter nonsense. Once again a rightwing nationalist demonstrated a narrow understanding of the national history he invokes. Wasn’t Oliver Cromwell a Patriot? Throughout the 19th Century there were multiple debates in Parliament on the abolition of the monarchy, at a time when the UK’s left wing parties didn’t exist, socialism and communism were not yet even invented. The UK has a long history of Republicanism.

More troubles heading Trump’s direction? NYAG Tish James has an important announcement’ to make tomorrow 10:30am EDT.

I tell you what I remember. ’Mexico will pay for the wall’. Steve Bannon pocketing millions donated by ‘gullibles’ to ‘build a wall’. Steve Bannon being handed a pardon from Trump. I seem to recall something in the news last week about Bannon going to trial.

They’ll respond by parroting Trump’s attack on the special master he and his legal team chose.

No, it’s the same as ‘Justice is coming’.

The response from Trump’s legal team that details of how documents were declassified by Trump are being withheld for a future criminal defense is all you need to know. Trump is on indictment watch. Trump knows he’s on indictment watch.

Has Trump started attacking the ‘Special Master’ yet?

The first people trafficking investigation kicks off, with a Sheriff in Texas of all places: https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/immigration/article266044016.html

Excellent example of what America needs more of.

I don’t believe the UK will not trade with Russia and China, nor do I think the UK performs such services to the US. It is however very clear that many Britons have an inflated view of the nation’s place in the world.

I’m almost inclined to give Truss a point for honesty, given the comparison to the lies about this issue that preceded her. However the fact that the US isn’t going to give the UK a trade deal while the British Government play poker with peace in Ireland is no secret (refer ‘Project Fear’ files). I don’t suppose the PM’s hand picked Chief of Staff being caught up in an FBI investigation into attempts to corrupt an election in US territory help either. The very junior partner will do as Washington demands. https://www.ft.com/content/1b0e6267-d46e-4eb8-9071-d12532a9abb9

He has two objectives, delay the proceedings and try to discover what evidence the DOJ has against him.

Guess who’s not traveling to NY with Truss this week?!: Truss is to meet with Biden while her hand picked Chief of Staff is caught up in an FBI investigation into attempts to rig a US territory election. Perhaps Truss will do the right thing and ask for her Chief of Staff’s resignation, he’s certainly doing the ‘advisable thing’ by not traveling to NY where his cooperation into the investigation might be more assertively demanded. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/no-10-chief-in-fbi-bribery-inquiry-to-stay-in-london-bvhsgpjhc

Yes, not all of it because I’m a bit busy right now, but tuning in and reading the ‘quality’ reports. I don’t mean in any sense to offend the solemnity of the Queen’s funeral when I say I’m also very much looking forward to the crowning of King Charles III. Sad as these moments are, we are privileged to witness these events.

Sports related violence has a well established history in the UK. But before I’m accused of ‘Brit bashing’ (pun intended), sports related violence is not simply a British society wide phenomenon, it is however very strongly related to rightwing extremism.

Forget it indeed. Most people in the UK rarely see a cop these days. They don’t even bother showing up for burglaries. Policing in the UK has collapsed.

I think you’ll find it’s about cricket.

About religion?

Odd that, because community policing no longer exists. Not enough officers since Theresa May decimated the force.

It’s probably a good idea to be a bit more precise given hot blooded suggestions above to start shooting/deporting people, resorting to CS gas and the Parachute Regiment. One is clearly calling for extrajudicial killings and collective punishment, while the other seems ignorant of the failings of using the Army against civilians on British streets. Oh but we’re defending British values goes the plaintiff cry. Perhaps a less drastic, but more effective policy would be reverse over a decade of understaffing the police force and return officers to community policing.
