    U.S. withdrawal from Syria

    Maybe it's just that I was too young to recall many leaders but it really does feel like we've got more nut-jobs running countries now on both sides of the political divide than in a long long time. Trump, Putin, Jinping, Duterte, Erdogan, Assad, Mnangagwa in Zimbabwe, Saudi's the Turkmenistan...

    U.S. withdrawal from Syria

    You do wonder with Erdogan if maybe he WANTS ISIS to make a comeback.....?

    U.S. withdrawal from Syria

    Probably not. Dumpng them in Europe is not Trump's problem - he couldn't give a fuck about Europe. Threaten to dump them in the US however.....

    Which has been the best decade for bands or solo artists?

    Depends on when you were growing up, cos you relate the music to experiences and emotions at that time. People older will see it as a generic rehash of 'groundbreaking' stuff from their youth. Younger people will see as old rubbish.

    Does Trump own them?

    U.S. withdrawal from Syria

    Fixed. And probably because Erdogan (and possibly Putin) buttered him up and got Trump to agree to it by thinking he'd won. Always been the danger IMO of a Presidential figure - a single individual can make decisions like this. Also see our 'special relationship' won't see the wife of the US...

    Lies you were told as a kid......

    The carrots thing was made up by the UK govt in WWII to a) Hide the fact we had radar from the Germans b) Get people to eat more carrots because there was a decent supply of them compared to other things.

    Lies you were told as a kid......

    I agree. Dead Sea Scrolls etc far more fascinating and show the Bible is only there to push a particular view (predominantly a male-centric one)

    England to walk off pitch if racism happens in the stands

    So it'd make FIFA/UEFA take the issue more seriously. Which is what most people want.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    This unique/not unique thing. I think an adequate analogy would be like options when buying a new car. Technically it's an off the shelf model, but if you choose certain options, trim, paint schemes etc you could have a completely unique car that no-one else has.

    I don't think Godden shagging Hiwula's missus will do much for team morale or bonding.

    Lies you were told as a kid......

    Not true. There were seven of some animals (or depending on how you read it four or fourteen of each)

    England to walk off pitch if racism happens in the stands

    So it would require a lot of the major footballing nations to agree to this together. FIFA/UEFA will soon act if they had a WC not featuring the likes of England, France, Germany, Spain etc because they had forfeited games due to walking off due to racism.

    Greta Thunberg / Climate Change Summit

    I agree we do. But if we've set up trade deals where we agree to buy so much of a particular product could we get out of buying it or would there be penalties in the trade deal. We could all change our spending habits overnight and not buy this stuff as individuals but for how long would the...

    Walsh was gash as well. Takes him a while to get going in games and IMO he fills a similar role to Kelly.
