The Pakistani and Bengali faux outrage is well practiced. They were last out in full force last year to harass and attack jewish and Israeli organizations and anyone else that the mobs assumed might have been jewish. Soon it will be the Hindus turn to be targets of the attacks. They have a lot of practice doing that. It's like a past time for them. It does beg the question why western nations give pakistan foreign aid.

India and Pakistan became fully independent in August 1947. India and Pakistan chose to go their separate ways. It was not a British decision. The two countries have had 78 years to get their affairs in order. The current dispute is in respect to Kashmir, a majority muslim region that is occupied in large part by India. The Kashmir conflict is local and has nothing to do with the British.

A question posed without circumstances. It is not unreasonable to oppose a declaration of war without a legitimate reason for the declaration of war provided. Are you expecting some dissatisfied Russian from Tashkent or Chechhnya to disrupt? A majority of those deaths were because of the Russian state itself. It was Russia that sent waves of unarmed people against German trenches and fortified positions. It was Russia that allowed millions of Russians to starve rather than evacuate areas out of German attacks. It was Russia that confiscated Russian farmers property resulting in mass starvation. Much of Ruussia's military losses were self inflicted or due to poor leadership from Stalin and his entourage.

You are presenting the resolution out of context. The USA and most of the 50+ other nations who did not support in favour of the motion are already on record in respect to the issue, with the USA one of the most vociferous opponents of such hate. Their position was attributable to the language used and the manipulation by Russia which sought to use the motion as a justification of its illegal attack on Ukraine and annexation of Ukraine territory.

Thai physicians are trained and they are qualified. The issue plays out in urgent care centers around the world and there are straight forward common sense explanations, which the physicians and the hospital authorities including government do not wish to acknowledge: There are detailed written protocols to follow. There are even checklists to help. Physicians do not follow these protocols or use the checklists. This is attributable to: i. Staffing shortages and/or workloads that do not allow time for a checklist to be completed. When you are the only Urgent Care physician on duty and multiple emergencies arrive at the same time, you have to ration time to the most critical case, and/or ii. Arrogance on the part of the Physician that allows for the assumption that they know everything. This is why the failure to manage straightforward cases is inexcusable, yet keeps occurring everywhere. It is expensive to have full staff 24/7 and hospitals/governments don't have the money to do so. The critical care physicians who work the 5 PM -8 AM periods tend to be junior doctors and residents and are often overwhelmed with the patient numbers and cannot effectively manage the heavy patient load.

Ok. Who are you to be so condescending and dismissive? Their selection of Pope did no harm and provided comfort to many. If Catholics wish to behave in the ways you describe and hurt no one, it is their right. I would rather someone do their rosary than have a machete rampage through the streets of Manchester.

You really are inconsistent. Toronto is the epicenter of "progressive" policy in Canada. It is an expensive, poorly managed city that can't even get its traffic problems sorted. Whenever I have to visit for business, I have price shock when I get my hotel bill or restaurant tab that is as expensive as London or NYC. It is understandable why he does not wish to enable Olivia Chow the left wing mayor and her policies. I think he is a wonderful man, and Canadians should be proud to have a patriot like him. Yes, he was a successful small business operator. Why attack him for having worked hard? Is it his fault that his parent worked hard too to give him a future?

1.3 billion members of the Catholic church believe that there should be a Pope. Their religion, their church and their right to have such a person. It is no one else's business to tell them whether there should be a pope or not.

The military is expected to have the capacity to erect and to maintain a floating pier. The Gaza deployment was in effect a field exercise. Do you think that when the time comes and there is a need for a pier to be deployed in windy weather, that the military will have the option to say, oh sorry, we won't do it because the conditions are not ideal? How else do you expect the military to train and to determine if their methodologies are appropriate if they do not deploy from time to time and try out something? Gaza provided such an opportunity. The fact is that there is no story here. There were a small number of injuries sustained. On any given day, military personnel are injured in the course of their activities. No one was injured from hostile fire. The issue of what happened to the aid is separate from the alleged claim of a "cover up".

Sure. And he is so unpopular that he obtained a healthy mandate to remain provincial premier for another term a few months ago. 83 out of 124 seats, is impressive. A "fake" conservative only because he does not espouse extremist notions. Many of his political policies are classic conservative. His strength is that he wears his heart on his sleeve and is a man who understands suburbia and the working people. He is a very Canadian person in what he says and does.

The usual right wing extremists are out in force I see to spin this into a negative. How is it Biden's fault? The US military had trouble building a temporary pier. In the real world, this exercise was a valuable operation because it highlighted the problems that can arise when building a floating pier. Newsflash: The US military is expected to be able build these structures to support US military forces when needed. The Gaza project was a defacto field exercise. Unlike a battle zone there was no hostile fire. The US military runs field drills somewhere in the world every day. Someone is always getting injured and sometimes people even die. This is how a military teaches its personnel.The leading cause of injury in the US military is from vehicle crashes and almost all are non combat related. Are you going to blame Biden for that as well. The report doesn't say that 62 were injure din building the pier. "Based on the information provided, we were not able to determine which of these 62 injuries occurred during the performance of duties or resulted off duty or from pre-existing medical conditions," the report said. What is also not mention is the type of injury. Bruises, cuts, contusions, slips ands falls, and sprains are recordable injuries. On any given day, military personnel suffer injuries during their activities. it can be burns to a cook in a ship galley or it can be a slip and fall on a slippery deck or it can be a serious laceration while working on a vehicle. It's part of the job

Gee, do you think that when the CONSERVATIVE premier of Canada's largest province, Ontario, the province hit hardest by tariffs, says Carney did well, that he was telling porkies? He is also the chairman of the provincial premiers conference and speaks on behalf of all premiers and territorial leaders. Was he lying when he reported that those leaders, who represent multiple political parties, had similar sentiments? Listen to him in this 1 minute clip. https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/video/9.6751610

To which I replied One anonymous cherry picked comment from an aggregator program using the Telegraph as a source is not definitive evidence of Canadian sentiment. Telegraph has its own political agenda.

Is that a hookup app that serves as a prostitution platform?

Iran does not have deep pockets. It's own economy is in tatters and its people are fed up with the financial aid to other groups while Iranians suffer hardship at home. Iran relies on its oil production to finance its activities. Take out the oil export facilities and Iran is stymied for a few years and a regime change occurs. There are many social and poverty issues in iran and it can not afford to go to war. Trump's bluster is to force the Iranians into talks to avoid a war. if anyone wants to avoid a war, it is Trump. I think one of the reasons why Waltz got reassigned was that he was a hawk on iran, and almost none of Trump's advisers agreed with Waltz. The fact is that Trump's strategy has been paying off. His decision to inflict some pain on Yemen has caused Yemen to stop targeting ships. The Iranians will only get one successful cyber hack, and if they are identified , they will get pounded into dust. The USA isn't playing around anymore and the Iranians know it.

And yet, that is not the sentiment that is appearing on Canadian social media or the major news networks. One anonymous cherry picked comment from an aggregator program using the Telegraph as a source is not definitive evidence of Canadian sentiment. try these; https://nowtoronto.com/news/canadians-react-to-mark-carneys-meeting-with-donald-trump-where-51st-state-comments-were-discussed/ https://www.bbc.com/news/videos/cj3x36zpg13o https://www.ctvnews.ca/video/2025/05/07/ctv-national-news-why-trumps-meeting-with-carney-matters-to-americans/ https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/article/body-language-expert-says-trump-showed-respect-in-meeting-with-carney/

And what is the large number of Indian workers who will arrive? Are you aware that the agreement is in respect to workers who are temporarily transferred by their employers and does not apply to anyone off the boat or airplane? There is no waiver of the £1000 immigration health insurance surtax. It will also benefit UK workers who work in India.

Perhaps you nonsensical claims will be better received at a one of the websites that caters to extreme right wing groups.

The awkwardness was with Trump as he made one idiotic lie after another. The previous Canadian PM implemented social policies that a majority of Canadians were in favour of . You don't see too many people refusing the new drug coverage or the improved childcare or the new dental care coverage. Much of the expansion of social services came at the request of minority parties in their parliament.

Such nonsense. There is no WEF conspiracy, and there will be no joining of Canada with the USA. Why would you think that the 2nd largest country in the world that is wealthy with natural resources would even accept being a single state on the same level as Rhode Island or Alabama? Why would you think that the Republicans would welcome tens of millions of voters who would pick a democrat over a republican candidate and could determine the fate of US elections? Yes it was. Trump made a fool of himself with his repeated lies. Did you even watch the event? Carney neither backed down nor yielded ground. He corrected several false claims made by Trump. He also got Trump to admit that there is no likelihood of Canada becoming a 51st state. PM Carney is no coward. On the contrary, as a former bank governor he is used to cleaning up the messes of politicians. And as a PhD in economics he was able to dismantle the political economical theories of Peter Navarro when Carney and Trump had lunch after the meeting. That lunch meeting focused on international topics with Trump soliciting carney's views. The meeting was a success because it reduced the animosity fever that gripped some of the Americans. It also helped that the US is feeling some pain from its Canadian product tariffs. Visitor numbers are way down and Canadians who are the USA's largest market are cutting back on US purchases.

Telegraph's version of events is contrary to every other information source which praised Carney's performance. Getting into a pissing match with a skunk never ends well. Carney took the high road and said what needed to be said publicly. Some people wanted to see a confrontation and are disappointed. Nothing would have been gained by it. Carney corrected several errors by Trump and made the points he needed to make. If all of the Canadian political parties and provincial premiers were not critical of the meeting, that says something.

Is the land private? if so, they have every right to enforce the no parking rule. If public land, then it is indeed theft.

Are you aware of how the exemption applies? 1.No, the Indians will NOT be eligible for benefits from the national insurance system. When British workers move to India they will continue to pay into the UK system, and when Indian workers come to Britain they will pay into their system and not the UK's. It is for a limited time period of 3 years. Foreign workers will still be paying income taxes on UK derived earnings in the UK. If they are paying income taxes on wages and are not VAT exempt, this means that they are indeed contributing to the support of public services, unlike many UK citizens who do not work. 2. It is NOT a blanket exemption, and will only apply to listed classes of workers. 3. Britain has 17 similar reciprocal agreements with countries including the US, EU and Japan. No one has object to those 17 agreements. Why the upset over a similar agreement with India? I would have sympathy to your position if you also demanded that all of the agreements be cancelled, although the UK business groups would disagree with you.

Sounds more like a law and order type. One law for him and another for the riff raff.

Yes stealing is wrong. As you appear to be a strong advocate of law enforcement here, why are you not calling for the soliciting party to be prosecuted too? The man did solicit a prostitute on the street in a public place for the purpose of prostitution. PREVENTION AND SUPPRESSION OF PROSTITUTION ACT, B.E. 2539 (1996)1 Section 5. Any person who, for the purpose of prostitution, solicits, induces, introduces herself or himself to, follows or implores a person in a street or a public place, or commit such acts in any other place, in an open and shameful manner or causes nuisance to the public, shall be liable to a fine not exceeding one thousand baht. And if he has a criminal conviction, should he not be deported too?
