  1. I have heard that a man who is now a prominent Christian Nationalist and Republican certainly "moved in those circles". His name will certainly be umh, protected!
  2. It rather sounds as if the police are not going to do anything - good old cultural contest to be considered no doubt!
  3. You only end up in IDC if you are: deliberately overstaying and making no attempt to put right your "immigration status" or leave; or doing something really silly like working illegally whilst on a tourist visa. If he had managed to secure a job whilst on a tourist visa, then it is relatively straightforward to concert to a type B visa.
  4. Oh I don't know, didn't they manage to shell the dock whilst parking one of their LGBs (Large Grey Boats) recently. Now, accidents happen, but to have an ND (negligent discharge) with your ships main armament whilst parking it is a remarkable achievement!
  5. The ruling that it was not an official act will be challenged, and overturned.
  6. Dead easy to change though! Tin tray under engine. Undo connections to and mounting bolts, drop engine onto tray. Get half a dozen mates to lift up back of car and wheel it clear. Fix /replace engine. Put engine back in reverse order.
  7. I thought that Mr Trump did not have sex with this Porn Star, and paid her off to avoid any scandal, before he became President. So how does that immunity work?
  8. Isn't large scale mail in voting a result of a considerable number of exceptionally political decisions to severely restrict the number of polling stations in areas where certain, umh, communities, live; which resulted in very long queues to cast a ballot, and often led to the polls closing whilst many were still queuing to cast their ballot? Now of course they should restrict the access to postal voting. "Jobs a goodun", Jim Crow!
  9. I have only made a cursory read through of a summary of the Supreme Courts opinion. I must have missed their conclusions on President Biden's mental health, and the role of the Pharmaceutical Industry.
  10. Given the colour of the skies up here (Chiang Rai) for the last couple of months I presume the float was smoky grey with a bonfire on it?
  11. Whilst I understand that perhaps there can be no greater insult, and therefore I am, perversely, somewhat flattered; sorry no, I am English, I have spent some time in the United States. Politically I cannot decide whether I am a liberal conservative or a conservative liberal. I find myself agreeing with a lot of what Bernie Saunders says. Mind you, in the current highly charged political atmosphere in the USA, that probably condemns me as a raving communist!
  12. On the contrary, I would suggest that American politics is obsessed - let's say it for what it is - race and colour.
  13. But a damn sight better than what you had before.
  14. Isn't it the case that the new senate no longer have a vote in the selection of the Prime Minister?
  15. Jolly big hearted of them to offer support and safety advice. One can only assume that they are far too busy investigating the blatant racket which is the open practice of the"paterfamilias" ( sorry to use the old Latin, indeed whisper it quietly, Christian word, but I am pathetically poorly integrated and do not know the Islamic term) collecting all the postal ballots from his extended family and voting with them. Anyway their (Leicestershire Constabulary) thoughts -not prayers obviously- are undoubtedly with them. Should protect them from the petrol bombs!
  16. Oh I don't know, he pissed off a number of people, who to this day are very circumspect as to exactly why they disliked him - see my earlier post about pigmentation. He made an attempt (at least partially successful) to ensure health care provision not solely based on how much cash you could raise. He put the topic on the USA's political agenda, and it won't go away. He actually got into the White House, which considering his background both racial and financial, was extremely noteworthy. All that, (at least according to the orange fellow and his acolytes) without having a birth certificate!
  17. Marine Le Pen's party has won the first round of voting. Left wing rioters are out on the streets...
  18. In just about every other country in the world, with a mature democratic political system he would be regarded as mildly left of centre.
  19. As I have said before, it was an entertaining video, a jolly song and she is a pretty girl. I don't think that many will make the trek to stand at the 7/11 she posed outside! Never mind TAT, another straw will float by in a few days or so!
  20. There is one overriding reason why Obama was hated by so many. Pigmentation. Wrap it up as much as you like. It is the USA. It is hardwired into a large segment of the population.
  21. Whilst I tend to agree about Muppets, I do wonder where that leaves us - the two old fellows shouting from the balcony perhaps?
  22. Context is all. These actions must be considered in context. It really is very simple. The context is that our leaders lack the collective guts, backbone, determination, to stand up to these people.
  23. I agree, but it is a sad fact that racism is completely hardwired into American politics, and society, and has been for decades. The current utter mess which is the upcoming general election serves to illustrate that.
  24. It became obvious very early on that Channel 4 had very grubby fingers in this. Discussion had to be shut down as soon as possible. Job for the man!
