  1. Unless he’s a paid up member of the Tory Party he doesn’t have a choice. Like the whole nation, he’ll get the PM the aged, reactionary, non representative and out of touch Tory Party membership chose.
  2. Nobody has a choice, unless they are paid up members of the Tory Party. I thought you understood that?
  3. Back to topic. Truss has refused to say she’d appoint a government ethnics advisor, to replace Christopher Geidt, who resigned over the current PM’s lack of ethics. Her logic seems to be ‘the nation should trust her’. Of course, if that’s true there can be no harm in an ethics advisor reporting how ethical the PM is, quite the opposite, an ethics advisor giving the nation good news about the PM at a time when the nation is facing so many problems has to be a good thing. Or perhaps, Truss intends to continue the current PM’s obnoxious disdain for the common rules of decency and honesty, trust her be cause she says ‘you can trust me’. I don’t see that wearing well beyond the closeted confines of the aged, reactionary Tory membership. She is a gift to the opposition.
  4. Nobody is trying to convince you of anything, you are already far too gone on your ‘blue/red/green/yellow team’ simplistic nonsense to be convinced of anything. However all is not lost. You’ve made a number of categorical statements that we can all come back to in the months ahead.
  5. A rational person, with even a modicum of intelligence, could hardly dodge observing some salient facts: 1. A federal judge issued a lawful search warrant. 2, Under that lawfully issued search warrant the FBI undertook a lawfully executed search. 3. The FBI’s lawfully executed search under a lawfully issued search warrant revived a number of US Government Documents, including TS/SCI documents in the possession of former President Donald Trump. 4. Former President has claimed the documents were planted by the FBI. 5. Former President Donald Trump’s attorneys signed statements saying the documents were already returned, thereby confirming Trump did indeed have the documents. 6. Not all the documents were returned. 7. Trump admitted he had the documents but claimed that he had declassified them under a Presidential Standing Order. 8. Nobody in Trump’s former administration has any recollection or knowledge of the ‘Presidential Standing Order’ Trump has referred to. A rational person would conclude that the best way to settle this matter is let the FBI complete there investigation, place the evidence before a Grand Jury and if the Grand Jury hands down an indictment, arrest Trump, charge Trump and send him to trial. If tge Grand Jury does not hand down an indictment there is no case to answer. Place your bets.
  6. The FBI are indeed treating Trump with extra special attention. If you or I had stolen TS/SCI documents, stashed them in our homes and they were then recovered under a lawfully executed and lawfully issued search warrant, we’d be in a dark basement somewhere with a wet towel over our faces until we explained ourselves. Lock him up already
  7. What on earth gave you the idea that Truss needs support from anyone outside the narrow confines of the Tory party? Truss is a gift to the opposition parties, unfortunately her policies are going to dish out real harm to millions of people already suffering from (that list of problems that you frequently try to shutdown discussion on).
  8. Actually, the very worst of lawyers. The suit was filed “Donald Trump Pro Se” What is it they say about the client of a man who decides to defend himself in court?
  9. Attempting to delay the inevitable.
  10. Perhaps something to do with Liz Truss’ former post as ‘Secretary of State for the Environment’.
  11. It’s not just the inflation rate, the UK has abysmal productivity and is heading into recession. Dorry, heading into ‘sunny uplands’.
  12. The wider voting public are staring down the barrel of another energy price rise arriving in just over three weeks after the ‘selected’ PM takes office. Around about the time temperatures drop and heating needs to be switched on/turned up. This clearly going to be a very chilly reception for which ever hopeful gets the job. And that’s just one of the many issues the wider voting public expect Government action on.
  13. I think it fairer to say we most of us recognize getting dragged off topic to waste time talking about the outrage over the faux Southern Border Crisis, is exactly what it looks like. A waste of time on off topic nonsense.
  14. I don’t like Mitch McConnell, I despise his politics but I also accept he knows a great deal about how elections are won and lost. Trump’s dummy spitting is a response to McConnell expressing his views about Trump sponsored candidates chances in the mid-terms. It’s a battle between old school Republicans and the extreme rightwing. It’s the same battle Liz Chaney has declared her position in. With up to half of all Republican voters already turning away from Trump, this is going to get real nasty.
  15. And the hit keeps getting worse. UK inflation has now reached 10.1% pa. It has hit this level faster than the Bank of England was predicting, which draws into question the BoE forecast for inflation to peak at 13%.
  16. Believe this. The most pressing investigation the FBI ( and others have) is who got to see these documents. Who had them illegally is a done deal.
  17. Never interrupt your enemies when they are making a mistake. Field Marshall, Napoleon Bonaparte. Let me know is you need a translation into the original French.
  18. It has to be the FBI. The heavily armed, body armored police won’t intervene (for other people’s children).
  19. Shading oneself surely comes second to wrapping oneself in the national flag. But it works wit a certain few.
