Not a hope in hell. The Army is firmly back in charge.

There is no "new line of thinking", since when did the military and ultra nationalist dinosaurs think of anything new or innovative? The thinking is you had your vote, you had a - "sort of" elected government for a couple of years, now we are back in charge to put everything back to the way it was.

Eau de didn't quite make it to the toilette?

There is much in what you say, although I find the thought that the creature is anybody's "wet dream" deeply disturbing!

It must be so, I have it on impeccable authority that it was in one of the encrypted files on Hunter Biden's laptop!

What about the watches?

Partially digested...

Expended a lot of blood and treasure in two wars (Iraq and Afghanistan) in which we fought alongside your (s-hole) country at your request. Only to see you spectacularly bug out. 636 of our servicemen and servicewomen died fighting alongside yours. Not too bad for a s-hole country I would suggest!

Magnificent? They waited until the Israelis had done the really dangerous bit, dismantling the Iranian air defences and command and communication networks, then bimbled in at high altitude, dropped their bombs and bimbled off again. It was a display of the unparalleled technology owned by the US Air force, but hardly magnificent!

Eau de diaper?

Ofcom is simply selecting a jolly handy stick with which to bash GB News.

In fact, why not just go and see a doctor?

Umh, nor was the guy before him. If you may remember he (the guy before him) stopped an election because he didn't like the person and party which was winning. He then ruled as head of a Junta for 9 years. The principal achievement of that junta was to introduce the current constitution which is being exploited to attempt to remove yet another elected (although flawed) government. These "constitutions" are hardly the sacred documents they are held up to be - there have been 20 in the last 90 years! Nevertheless the present government was "elected" according to the principles stipulated by the current constitution.

There are occasions @JonnyF when I find myself in limited agreement with some of the points you make in posts, on some aspects of UK domestic politics; but this is simply one of the most asinine things I think I have ever read in a commentary on North American politics!

A nickname for the "ultra nationalist fraternity".

Having someone who sits down when they pee as culture minister will not impress the "yellow underpants brigade"!

Come on, is that really the best response you can manage?

Glastonbury and the BBC is an absolute racket. I worked for a while with a Taxi firm in Bath, with which the BBC had an account. Every morning the train from London which arrived at about 0930 would disgorge a dozen or more BBC executives (from the first class carriage at the rear). Each would have a taxi waiting for him/her, to take them to Glastonbury (about £65 a car). They would be picked up in the evening and returned to Bath Station - so £130 per head paid for by the license fee, plus of course the first class train fares. It wouldn't be unusual for 15 or more cars to be out there. On one memorable occasion some jolly important chap hired a car (mine) to take him to Castle Cary Station about 10 miles beyond Glastonbury; charged at the metered rate from the City Boundary of Bath. With waiting time at the festival site it came to £108, for a 10 mile taxi ride. I know that in June the BBC account bill (usually a couple of hundred quid a month) was in the tens of thousands! Sometimes they would stay overnight in one of the best hotels in or near Bath instead of going back to London. They spent money like water - it was all on expenses of course!

But, but, but, doesn't Trump have his own Crypto currency, shouldn't people in the USA invest in that, along with gold (sneakers, watches and smartphones) as a hedge against currency fluctuations?

Perhaps a (rather understandable) reluctance to kiss his spray tanned arse?

The MAGA definition of "far left loon" equates to moderate anywhere else on the planet.

Didn't they make a movie about that - "Death Race 2000" or something?

Whilst we are on the subject of freak shows: that hair, that tan, that bloke wearing mascara!

Well, that puts things into perspective doesn't it!

Reassuring to see Hunter Biden's laptop nestling in there! What is the point of a really good conspiracy theory if it doesn't include Hunter Biden's laptop eh?
