  12. Oh sorry...didn't realise all this had been gone through and sanctioned already..... Naming or renaming international waters follows a structured process involving international organizations, national governments, and historical/geographical considerations. Here’s how it generally works: 1. Established Naming Authority • The International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) and the United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names (UNGEGN) are the primary bodies responsible for standardizing maritime names. • The International Maritime Organization (IMO) and United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) also play a role in defining maritime boundaries. 2. Criteria for Naming or Renaming • The proposed name must reflect geographical, historical, or cultural significance. • It should be widely accepted by the international community. • It must not cause confusion with existing names. • In cases of renaming, there should be a clear justification (e.g., decolonization, geopolitical changes). 3. Proposal Submission • Countries or organizations submit proposals to the IHO or UNGEGN. • The proposal must include historical evidence, cartographic references, and justification for the new name. 4. Review and Consultation • The IHO and UNGEGN consult with member states, relevant stakeholders, and linguistic experts. • If the area is politically sensitive, diplomatic negotiations may take place. 5. International Consensus and Adoption • If a majority of member states agree, the new name is published in official documents like the IHO’s “Limits of Oceans and Seas” or the UN’s Gazetteer of Geographical Names. • The name is then used in maps, navigation charts, and international treaties.

  16. The right says Walz was never qualified to be Secretary of Defense (sic) The right says Hegseth (the alcoholic, wife cheater, sacked from how many jobs?) is qualified to be Commander in Chief. Think about that.
  17. Just two examples..... Immigrants are more likely than native-born citizens to start businesses, ranging from small shops to tech companies. These businesses create jobs and stimulate local economies, which can provide opportunities for poorer individuals....Elon Musk? Immigrants working in labor-intensive industries where there are labour shortages can help reduce production costs. This can result in cheaper goods and services, which disproportionately benefits poorer households that spend a larger share of their income on necessities.
  18. As an outsider it is quite exciting......I hardly bother with UK politics now.
  19. Worst or lowest part of your life ? Probably tonight when I saw riclag had posted even more unadulterated drivel.......come back Bob.....all is forgiven.
