A byword for getting a good deal when buying a campervan one believes!

I don't think many trolls are!

The "intifada" for which their banners call is a campaign of terrorism throughout Israel. The previous two intifadas have involved the bombing of buses, shooting of people in the streets, the slaughter of many men women and children. They want more of it. Peaceful protests, rubbish.

Leaving us with the good old, reliable, soundly managed, impartial and morally impeccable BBC then... Employing a politically unsavoury clergyman from a fringe protestant sect is unwise, but rather pales when compared to employing, for example Chris Denning, Tim Westwood, Jimmy Saville, Rolf Harris and Martin Bashir!

The classic is the Mormons - didn't like the bible, went for a walk in the mountains and found a much better one!

As a practicing Catholic (God knows I need to practise, I'm not very good at it) I was intrigued as to what the "Nordic Catholic Church" exactly is. Google is my friend. Turns out it is a Norwegian High Church Lutheran fringe movement; a description which is rather puzzling, and contradictory. So not Catholic at all! Just another example of Protestants inventing a church to suit their preferences and political opinions, and then arguing with others. I'll stick with the Pope I think; at least you know where he stands - mind you he is a Jesuit so that may be an ambitious statement!

Then there is a Tuk Tuk driver in the mix...

The gag order is in place because of Trump's record, and actions, of saying and posting things which amount to threats against court officials (and their families) and inevitably the jurors. No doubt if others were making such threats then they to would be subject to orders. What is remarkable is that despite breaching the order 9 times, multiple acts of contempt of court, he has been let off with a fine, remarkable compassion!

It is a prerequisite for dedicated MAGA supporters, to have their irony filters deactivated. How else could they make sense of their trains of thought?

There is no such thing as "American English"; there is English, and then there are mistakes...

Indeed, it was the task of the white, land owning, slave holding classes. Changed now of course, land owning replaced by corporate interests and slave holding replaced by other means of exploiting poorer people. The Electoral College still exists to further the interests of the white and the wealthy, and wherever possible stop "the mob", or the electorate as we call them these days having their say.

Unfortunately it is entirely possible that Trump can win through the Electoral College, without the popular vote, particularly given that institutions vulnerability to, umh, manipulation. Like wise, gerrymandering of district boundaries and voter obstruction could result in a majority in Congress, again without a popular vote majority. If that happens, and remember the Supreme Court is already bought and paid for, then democracy will end. The Stakes are that high.

Well there is a difference: in the USA the crimes that Trump is arraigned for are real, with actual evidence of criminal activity...

Donkeys years ago I flew here on Aeroflot. On the Bangkok - Moscow leg just about every family brought on board one of those large cylindrical cardboard tubs of washing detergent powder. All left in the aisle Presumably washing powder was "dues out" in Russia?

Manual gear change is much more common in the UK than automatic gear boxes. I think I am qualified to comment, not only do I have lots and lots of English friends, but I am English!

Does that umh, make deposits everywhere without warning too?

Lost innocence - oh silly me, what am I saying!

It is quite interesting, if you look at the pictures, that very many of the tents are identical! Almost as if they were being bought in bulk and issued out to those who need them - all quite spontaneously of course, I mean no planning or funding involved! Amazingly well organised place America, where you can place an order for 500 identical tents to be delivered the day after tomorrow! " American Express?" "That will do nicely Mr Al Ambassador!"

Baseball caps are, in political terms, so passé. This time round it is all about mugshots!

I thought Trump was teetotal?

Yes, I have been struck a couple of times by the irony, whilst attending Mass, of a couple of young girls going up to receive Holy Communion in tee shirts emblazoned with that slogan. I am pretty sure they had no idea of their slogans meaning!.

I believe that if you "return" there is a six month period before you can use the NHS, and then you have to satisfy them that your return is permanent. I am sure that if you turned up chronically sick they would not let you die in the car park... I'm actually quite satisfied with the treatment I received from the Thai health service. It is actually not that expensive, here. However in the UK it would be much more expensive, and a cost which would have to be born by the state (which was my point)

Stormy Daniels, if she testifies, Is going to be hilarious. Of course, there is only one question everyone wants to hear asked...

What stance did he take when he drew his pistol to shoot you: double handed, single handed, supporting the gun arm at the elbow, waving it around held sideways "rapperstyle"?

We learn so much, as members of Asia Now don't we!
