Let’s make it even more simple than that. Rees-Mogg was appointed as minister of ‘Brexit Opportunities’, he couldn’t find any. Or rather he omitted the ‘Brexit Opportunities handed to him and that other hedge fund manager Crispin Odey to place bets against the UK. So why did hedge funds managers who where betting against the UK back Brexit? The bitter irony is, Rees Mogg is as thick as two short planks, but he and his hedge fund managers raked in vast fortunes by convincing ordinary Brits that Old Etonians had their best interests at heart.

The bone spurs ‘mocking’ arises from the high probability they never existed, they certainly never got in the way of cheating in a game of golf. Are you telling me the guy who bragged about ‘grabbing women by the….’ Was trying to hide his sexual exploits out of some kind of shyness, or was he trying to hide his debauchery from the religious, moral, family value proclaiming voters he was reliant on? I would however accept that criticizing him on the basis of his obesity constitutes hate speech, though criticizing his blatant lies about his weight and health does not. Now can I expect a similar outrage from you the next time someone is criticized for allegedly suffering cognitive problems? Or you going to be right on it, joining in?

Yes Twitter has indeed been in the news, it appears you’ve not been keeping up with it.

The UK has not been able to do as it pleases since around the time of the Second World War. The latest example being Washington Schooling London on what is and is not acceptable wrt the UK’s post Brexit plans for Northern Ireland.

Not unless it attacks Trump on the basis of his race, gender, sexual orientation, religion or disability it’s not. Just like your own hating on the left wing is not hate speech.

But, and it’s a big but, the wall was a failure. Or to be more precise, it was a failure in terms of preventing migrants crossing the border. It was arising success at feeding the rightwing with something to be outraged over and a rather effective means of stripping Trump supporters of their hard earned cash.

Except it’s a Brexit lie.

Chancellor Jeremy Hunt has said the quiet bit out loud: https://www.scotsman.com/news/politics/brexit-jeremy-hunt-quizzed-on-rejoining-single-market-as-he-concedes-damaging-trade-barriers-created-by-brexit-deal-3923127

Wonderfully named.

Most Trump supporters have no problem at all with biased law enforcement, so long as it was Trump and USAG Barr in charge of the bias. Those days are gone. The DOJ is now acting independently and the appointment of a special council is a further segregation between the Administration and the delivery of Justice.

You’d like to see the GOP interfere in the process of Justice wrt to a former GOP President. Think about where that goes.

2022 really has been a stellar year for Justice. I have high hopes of more to come.

And yet here she is tossed on the slammer under a Democrat Administration and a Democrat appointed USAG. How does that fit with your ‘recent observations’?

More to help point politicians receive such huge contributions from pacs and corporations that they are controlled by the personal financial benefits. Repeal the perversely named ‘Citizens United’ Act and make publication of personal finances, stock/business holdings and taxes a condition of registration to stand for election.

The British public know the consequences of appeasing tyrants.

I’ll tell you who’s struggling. The people who said they were going to fix the problem. I suggest you go ask them for an explanation of their abject failure in the matter.

Arguably the most twisted logic I’ve read on this forum, The photos of migrants see by the Leave campaign were not white Europeans, and at the time the implicit racism of the Leave messaging was widely criticized. By what twisted logic you turn that into your nonsense above is a mystery. Racism was a core of Leave messaging, give up trying to transfer that on those who spoke up against the racism in Brexit messaging.

Sorry, please accept my apologies if I’ve been a bit ‘assertive’ in my responses. I mistook your posts as having a familiar ring to them, but my bad, I hadn’t realized you are a brand new member and therefore perhaps deserving of a little softer responses. Anyway, welcome to the forum, you’ll soon catch on how it goes.

It’s going to age a lot better that the GOP Hunter Biden fixation. ’Chain of Custody’ is a critical issue in determining what is and what is not ‘evidence’. The Republicans would be well advised to give up on this lunacy and try instead to come up with some policies that might attract swing voters. Refer midterm election results for reasons why.

There’s a problem, and ironically (or perhaps not) it’s one that is rooted in a long-standing piece of ‘computing wisdom’, GIGO. Garbage in, Garbage out. Any report on the contents of any computer is no more reliable than the custody chain of the computer upon which the report is made. The ‘chain of custody’ problems with the ‘Hunter Biden Computer’ are well publicized and legion. Your statement that the ‘evidence is ‘incontrovertible’ is patent nonsense, without a solid and verifiable chain of custody the contents of the computer are inadmissible in any court of law (well any US Court of law). So since you brought them up, let’s have some morals out of you, less of these patently false claims.

While handing Trump’s businesses and family members trademark registrations.

So now Hunter Biden is guilty of the sin of omission. I’d let that one go if I where you focus on trying to establish a chain of custody for this lap top you obsess over.

I’ve not made my financial plans on how long my mates live(d). That’s just silly.

I am, I bring good booze. I can afford it, I planned it that way.

The math is the same regardless. If you’re combined income is only sufficient at date of first retirement and your income is fixed or not keeping up with inflation then you have a very grim old age ahead of you. Worse still is taking on additional financial burdens on such a fixed income.
