Oh dear. Nervy now

sorry, just seen this, posted on other thread. Too much going on to keep up

Looks like Netanyahu is pushing him to the point of losing US support

Just seen this as well. Wonder what he’ll so if Israel ignore

Fair play to Trump here. I think he’s speaking for a majority of the world with that comment

Sooner he’s out and there’s also regime change in Iran the better. Still hoping we can stay out of the mess over there though

Think I read that it’s the only route any Middle Eastern countries (Saudi etc) can export oil and also China relies on oil supplies coming through here. So even if they confirmed it’s going to be shut, I can’t imagine other countries would allow this to be for long. Saying that, Putin will be...

was it Trump first term ?

Wasn’t the film an account of what actually happened/recollection of what happened so not sure it’s about what was the point of them in the film

There’s some that think just chucking extra money at the problem solves everything*, never inwardly looking to see how the money is spent and asking whether people are doing their jobs effectively. To the point where Ian (sorry Ian but this springs to mind) seemingly threw out that underfunding...

Just seen that the justice secretary has made a speech aligning us to the nine other countries pushing to reform the ECHR. About time One thing I’ll say about the government, whilst I don’t agree with all their policies at least they appear intent on actually doing stuff. Just hope it’s not all...

No, I was talking about the far right probably leaping on this and tarring everyone from the Pakistani community with the same brush.

Its a bit more than just poor data collection. People are still ignoring a key element of the Casey report: "We found many examples of organisations avoiding the topic altogether for fear of appearing racist, raising community tensions or causing community cohesion problems," Unfortunately ‘do...

Read yesterday that Trump vetoed Israel’s assassination plans. Not sure if true or not but right move if he did, not sure that’s the solution (see Iraq, Libya etc)
