    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Has Trump forgotten who was president during the January 6th insurrection? Ranting that the 'Biden FBI' was behind it. It was before Biden was in power!

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Really hope this is the beginning of the end and everyone can now work towards a long term two state solution. Sadly I hold little hope given some of the comments from Netanyahu and his cabinet since the ceasefire was put forward. If the reports of the kipnapping and subsequent killing of...

    Death List 2025

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c3drdy5ry2do Seems a bit of a waste of time for someone nobody will miss. I guess they have to and there's probably too much CCTV and too many threats of disciplinary action for prison staff to all go 'no idea what happened'. Will probably turn out to be a...

    Very true, and the same goes for Biden before him. Also the failure to allow aid in is a disgrace. Months of denials aid was being stopped yet one of the conditions of Trumps agreement is the Israel now allows aid in.

    Let's go there then. The attack on the military base was before Palestine Action was proscribed. The people involved were arrested and without any terrorism related charges being involved are looking at 20+ years behind bars. Given that it seems our authorities are so on the ball random people...

    Well sort of but it was a comical example of the way the whole thing has been treated. When it first occurred a figure of £7m was first put forward by government officials. This was immediately queried given that other similar protests using paint come in at a damage figure of around £10K. It...

    Not at all. You can't use 'none of you have ever said anything before' as an argument and then claim a request to name any groups on the terror list who are equivalent to PA that we should have been speaking about is moving the goalposts. We literally had to change the definition of terrorism...

    I don't think its anything remotely close to a fully formed manifesto commitment but its already got people screaming 'he wants to legalise heroin'. Reminds me of when the Cameron government commissioned one of the biggest reports into the effects of drugs in this country and then when the...

    Its really not. Happy to defend anyones right to protest. What other groups do you feel have been added to the proscribed terrorist organisation list that you feel shouldn't be on there?

    Super Bowl in London

    The Office remake was decent if you made it past the first series that was basically remakes of the original episodes. They finally seem to have realised that if you make 20+ episodes a year you can't maintain quality.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Thats kind of the point. He's had the power to do this all along, and Biden before him, but has only now chosen to use those powers. Appears he had a falling out with Netanyahu and told him 'you're always so fucking negative', and has grown bored of the situation so has decided its time to...

    Yes it was confirmed by at least one constabulary, Devon & Cornwall I think it was. There will not be any consequences at all, the police routinely make decisions about what to prioritise and there are never any consequences.

    They're going to end up having some sort of merger with Reform aren't they. If they can mange to stay relevant enough that Reform are even interested in that. The idea that the Tory party would be killed off by Brexit seemed complete fantasy a few years back but you look at the election...

    You've kind of proved the point you're arguing against here. If you decided to walk down the street with a Nazi flag you'd be fine, there's no law against that unless police decided to act under hate crime legislation. Here's a photo from an IRA parade in the UK in April this year. The only...

    What moment still haunts you?

    Pretty sure we've had this conversation before on here but VAR as intended would be fine. It was sold to us on the basis of overturning clear and obvious errors. The kind of thing everyone in the ground can see but the officials somehow miss, things that would take seconds to correct. Somehow...

    Super Bowl in London

    Think there's far more chance of that than the Super Bowl tbh. Khan seems to be actively working to bring Wrestlemania to London. Can't see the Super Bowl ever happening here. Bad enough we have regular season games. I can kind of understand NBA, MLB and NHL having regular season games here...

    Crazy to think we're at a point where we're not far off neither Labour or Conservative being in the top two parties in the country

    We're really now just at a stage that should have happened within days of Israel starting its campaign. As soon as it became clear the response was disproportionate and targeting civilians and children that should have been the point at which the US President should have been putting pressure on...
