Latest developments and discussion of recent events in the Ukraine War
Perhaps the best thing to come out of Trump's victory is that we won't have to look at that moron Blinken running around the M E achieving nothing but lies and BS after January 20th.- 1

Trump is back! He has won.
There is no evidence to support your claim of cheating. Please give it a rest or are you now going to also insist that the bogus videos issued by Russians are legit? -

It doesn't matter. A nationwide ban would be ruled unconstitutional. -

Latest developments and discussion of recent events in the Ukraine War
Stand by for the West’s betrayal of Ukraine - There is little sign Europe is ready to step up and arm Kyiv if Trump follows through on the logic of his campaign vow - THE TIMES https://archive.ph/C9iVF When it became clear earlier this year that Trump would definitely secure his party’s nomination, there was some flirting in Europe with the thought that the continent must step up and take over the funding and support for Ukraine when the US abandons Zelensky and his people. Those of us who suggested this did so on the basis it should surely be feasible for a continent of 500 million souls, with an economy ten times the size of Russia’s, to find the money and also to strengthen the European pillar of Nato. Beyond some statements since Trump’s victory about European solidarity, there is no meaningful sign of it. I hope I am wrong. I hope Europe, including the UK, steps up properly for Ukraine and commits to spending at least 3 per cent of GDP on rebuilding our own defences. As it stands, what seems more likely is that we will wring our hands while Ukraine is forced to endure ritual humiliation. My note - from Gemini The UK is currently spending approximately 2.3% of its GDP on defense. There is a commitment to increase this to 2.5% of GDP by 2030. To calculate 0.7% of the UK's GDP, we need the current GDP figure. According to the Office for National Statistics (ONS), the UK's GDP in 2023 was £2,720 billion. To find 0.7% of this amount, we can multiply the GDP by 0.7% (or 0.007): £2,720 billion * 0.007 = £19.04 billion Therefore, 0.7% of the UK's GDP in 2023 was approximately £19.04 billion. That would be nearly £700 more per household per year. -

Just another day crossing the road...
I'm kind of split on your opinon on this...... If I'm first to arrive at a padestrian crossing in my car, and there are pedestians wating or about to cross, or if they have 'started' crossing, I stop.... If someone goes into the back of me, thats another issue and it would be the other cars fault - that has never happened and its only the same as stopping when a traffic light changes to red. On my motorcycle I'm far more cautous, I don't want to be the one stopping first, at traffice lights or a pedestiran crossing as I fear someone 'rear ending me'... so I'll either drive through, if no one is on the crossing already, or try and stop to the side, if people have started using the crossing already. As far as stopping, and giving a 'false sense of securiuty' to those using the crossing, ergo potentially being the one who effectively 'caused' an accident as they cross and another car blows through the junction - I get your point and its a common comment... but again, in years of driving here and stopping at crossings, this has not happened... But, in the example we see in this article, this is exactly what happened - drivers stopped, a person crossed thinking they were safe and dropped their guard.... But that is not the fault of the traffic that did stop, its the failt of the idiot motorcyclist for blowing through a pedestrian crossing when eveyrone else had stopped, also also partially the person crossing for dropping their guard and not paying attention. -

Live and let live, I say. Never a good idea to get between the goose and the gander, or the gander and the gander 555.
