  1. They’re dead?
  2. In the UK, most people arrested for common assault are not necessarily held in police cells prior to a court appearance, especially for lower-level cases. Here’s how it typically works: 1. Assessment of Severity and Risk: Police consider factors like the seriousness of the offense, prior convictions, risk to the public, and likelihood of the person showing up in court. For common assault without aggravating factors (like weapons or severe injuries), police are more likely to release the person on bail. 2. Use of Bail: Police bail, with conditions (e.g., curfew, stay-away orders), is commonly used for minor offenses, including some cases of common assault. This allows the individual to remain free while they await their court date. 3. Custody in Serious Cases: If the assault is more severe, if the person has a significant criminal history, or if there’s a risk of re-offending or not appearing in court, police may keep them in custody until they are brought to court (usually within 24 hours for minor cases). 4. Immediate Court Appearance: For serious or repeated common assault cases, the individual may be remanded in custody for a prompt court appearance, especially if they’re seen as a potential flight risk or a danger to others. Most minor common assault cases don’t result in pre-court detention, especially if it’s a first offense or there are no aggravating factors. However, the approach varies, and the decision rests heavily on the circumstances of the offense and the individual’s history.
  3. How many Godwins were there?
  4. Not so much illiterate as CBA reading your unadulterated drivel.
  5. Donald Trump has stated that, if he wins the 2024 election, he will take action against political opponents, particularly those he believes have wronged him or engaged in politically motivated attacks. Some of his key statements include: 1. “I am your retribution”: During a 2023 speech, Trump said he would act as retribution for his supporters and he would pursue legal actions against those he views as unjustly targeting him or his supporters. 2. Targeting Justice Department officials and Biden: Trump stated he would restructure the Department of Justice and FBI to remove those he considers biased, citing figures within the Biden administration and law enforcement as potential targets. In an August 2023 interview with conservative talk show host Hugh Hewitt, he also stated he would pursue investigations against President Biden and his family and they would face consequences under his administration. 3. Expanded Presidential Powers: In recent rallies, Trump has emphasized a need for more direct control over federal agencies and the judiciary and that he would seek to expanded presidential powers to act against those he believes were responsible for “weaponizing” government agencies. He’s just one big pussy (grabbing) cat and probably lying about doing any of this.
  6. No need to reply….yet you did….555
  7. I'm interested in your opinion. Here's my initial thoughts. Let's imagine for a moment that Trump is correct and a vote for Harris is a vote for a hard left, Trotsky like, communist state. Where does the USA go from here? Nearly 50% of the American population are communists. Really? What can be more divisive than labeling (sic) your political opponents communists? How can you divide like this then expect to unify the country under your Presidency? How will Trump deal with the 50% population? Imprisonment? ‘Go after them’….. in his own words? That's been tried before with political opponents.
  8. Who, on God’s green earth, are you to declare the World is tired of liberal wokes?????? It is liberal wokes that are trying to prevent the likes of Trump, Musk, Johnson, Orban, Putin et al from running the show.
  9. I hope and pray you are correct. The World does not need Trump…….. regardless of how much the hard of thinking might want him.
  10. There is no reason to suppose there are no ‘bad’ scientists….. there are plenty of bad lawyers, politicians, teachers, airline pilots…….etc The clever part is peer reviews which hardly exist in any other profession….and peer reviews are cut throat. As an aside nothing is ever ‘proven' in science…..there are just best theories based on the current evidence and observations.
  11. They won’t put them on…….drives me ******* mad. ‘Stupidity' can be the only reasonable response.
  12. Thought about it, but went for a whisky, beer and some KP peanuts instead.
  13. I’m quietly confident that he will win……not necessarily via the ballot box though, It is staggering that a so called 'educated the nation' could end up with such a totally unhinged, despicable character as their president.
  14. How will this work….I thought all asians looked the same?
  15. Am I the only one thinking of self harming?
  16. How is it or how will it be pushed under the carpet and by whom?
  17. Or........ he wins and we can sit back bathe in the warm glow of schadenfreude as he destroys American's reputation around the world.
  18. Forced myself to on the odd occasion......seemed a shame not to.
  19. Christmas has come early. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/oct/28/tommy-robinson-admits-contempt-of-court-over-false-claims-about-refugee?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other
  20. There are civil routes open to those who lost loved ones.....but they would need significant financial and legal support. It is very likely that this is the end of the road and the murdering ******** have got away with it.
  21. He really doesn't have a clue. He just parrots stuff read in pamphlets without thinking (or rather knowing) what any of it actually means.
  22. Bandying the left and communism about as if they are the same thing is no different to saying the right and the NAZIs are the same.....oh wait.
  23. No, Mexico did not pay directly for the construction of the border wall, despite former President Donald Trump’s repeated campaign promise that it would. Instead, funding for the wall came from the U.S. federal budget. Here’s a breakdown of how it was funded: 1. Federal Appropriations: Some funding came from congressional appropriations specifically allocated to border security, which included funds for new fencing and reinforcement of existing barriers. 2. Military Funds: In 2019, after Congress refused to allocate the full amount Trump requested, he declared a national emergency to redirect funding from the Department of Defense budget toward the wall. Around $6.1 billion from military construction and counter-narcotics programs was reallocated for this purpose. 3. Customs and Border Protection Funds: Some money also came from the budget of Customs and Border Protection (CBP), which included funds earmarked for border security enhancements. 4. Tariffs and Trade Policies: Trump argued that renegotiating NAFTA as the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) and imposing tariffs on Mexican imports indirectly “paid” for the wall by benefiting the U.S. economy. However, this was not a direct payment from Mexico to the U.S. Treasury for wall construction. In the end, the U.S. taxpayers covered the direct costs of building the wall along portions of the U.S.-Mexico border.
