That is a piss poor argument, I'm sorry, and makes you and Sick Boy sound a lot like Putin apologists. You're making the same lame argument as Tucker Carlson here, does that not make your skin crawl even a little bit? Ukraine wasn't by any means a perfect country before its invasion by...

It's Granada Bingo for me, or no one. Glazepta can bollux.

Your point being? Who would have predicted Ukraine surviving the first few days? Ukraine will inevitably lose if the west doesn't back them, that part is obvious. You seem to be using it as an excuse for letting a tyrant overrun a sovereign European democracy. I'd prefer to use it as a...

You vote for a person based on what party they're representing, surely. Otherwise, as said elsewhere, why would prospective candidates tie themselves to party policies and discipline and have the party name printed directly next to theirs on the ballot paper. I'd bet a reasonably large number...

My theory is that an exceptional goalie, as opposed to an average one, will save you 15-20 goals over the course of a season. How much would it cost to sign an outfield player who could score that many?

There is nothing funnier that someone having some kind of deranged rant about "lack of respect", accusing others of being 'snowflakes'. Talk about thin-skinned and over-sensitive, it's like an internet version of the "The Princess and the Pea".😄

And one of honour too, I don't doubt. Ah well, at least you know you've still got it mate. 😁

If all else fails, beer coat. 😁

Good luck mate, that's a terrific effort.

Forgot to add, has pushed Israel's greatest ally into vigorously lobbying for a two-state solution and brought the Palestinian issue to the world stage far more effectively than any of his opponents could ever manage. Netanyahu is like Trump, a very stable genius.

Hmm. Launching 300 drones and ballistic missiles without expecting any of them to get through is putting a lot of faith in Israel's defence capabilities. Apparently it will have cost Israel and the west around a billion pounds to shoot them all down (BBC's Jeremy Bowen stated anyway.). As for...

I suspect Iran anticipated a bigger impact from 300 drones and missiles. Probably lucky for everyone that it didn't quite play out that way. I think it suits Netanyahu very well to try to stir this up a bit more - it distracts from Gaza and guarantees the West keep the weapons and support tap...

That would be a surprise. Ten minutes of research shows that Brexit has had a negative impact on exports overall, and is an ongoing drag on the economy. Whatever you're smoking in your pipe, you need to lay off it for a bit, you're hallucinating. You got Brexit done, now own that shit...

My Dad said that if I kept doing that I'd go blind. I asked if I could just do it until I needed glasses. 😄

Well argued, but I think where we differ is in the definition of authoritarian. I think the typical definition of authoritarian goes way beyond sugar tax, for example and into the realms of suppressing democracy and individual rights. Taxing sugar, or cigarettes, or booze, isn't the same as...

I'm getting adverts for an ad-blocker now, I kid you not. 😁

😄

Probably not for this thread, but I think it's entirely possible to be left wing and broadly libertarian. Controlling the worst excesses of capitalism is more about regulation of business and redistributive policies than removing individual rights, surely. The Political Compass website has a...

Direct quote from her website Suella Braverman MP : "I worked at the Bar for 10years (sic), specialising in Planning Law and Judicial Review." Is the problem that you can't read, or that you're too lazy to bother? I'm not trying to embarrass you either. I don't think you're capable of that...

Yep, the gutters will be clogged with leaves and detritus, the benefits of having lots of trees nearby. Don't actually have a window cleaner on a regular basis, or I'd ask them... Tempted to just have a crack myself... If I don't post for a while, you'll know it's gone horribly wrong. 😄
