America is paying lip service only. Repeatedly saying this is the line in the sand don’t cross it, okay, this is the line in the sand don’t cross it. Rinse and repeat. Would the US be stronger if it wasn’t election year? Who knows. The only thing we can be sure of is Trump would be weaker/more...

It’s never been a problem until Trump. You’re indulging him. Not least is because Trumps angle is that the only reason that the US spending on military is so high is because other members is so low, which is just complete bollocks. The reason the US budget is so high is because it’s a super...

But as I say, blinkered. look a Spain for instance. Massive strategic importance in location as the entrance to the Med from the Atlantic so also the Wests entrance to the Black Sea, Suez Canal and the Red Sea. The US knows this, the US wanted Spain in NATO as much as anyone, the US has both a...

Mmm. It’s a bit of a blinkered view though Steve. You’re putting spend and only spend as a measurement of importance. Take Iceland for instance. No military force therefore no military spend yet NATO members. The reason is the strategical importance of Icelands location. So there’s more than one...

Suddenly that EU army that was never going to be looks a good idea if Trump gets in again.

What amazes me is people actually think that the world will be more stable if Trump is president. He’s essentially just given Putin the green light to attack our NATO allies which will 100% trigger WW3. No ifs, no buts, we, that’s WE, would be at war with Russia.

He’s not deranged, he’s a very stable genius.

Things have gotten that bad it’s hard to not to see even a stagnation of trends as an improvement. This is going to be Labours biggest problem. There’s been 14 years of investment in getting NHS waiting times up, child poverty up, schools in such a bad state of repair, mental health services...

Is it me or is he giving off some Rolf Harris vibes in that photo. The picture on the board is clearly his equivalent of a Rolfaroo. A Sunakaroo.

Did they ever?

Yep.

He blamed Boris Johnson.

Didn’t you once say that the voting age should be lifted to 21 as teenagers were too stupid?

What I’ve never understood is why all parties not just Labour put arbitrary figures in pounds on policies. Why not just commit a percentage of GDP to said policy leaving a percentage of GDP as contingency/top up. It’s not unreasonable that spending policies are contingent on certain factors from...

It’s a binary choice for me. Either tactically vote to get your Tory MP out or keep your Labour or Lib Dem MP in at the expense of the Tories. It’s not much of a choice I agree but the alternative is playing a part in keeping the biggest joke of a government in history in power. Even Rachel...

Oh dear.

Your chances are better in Scotland though. Doesn’t help that the UK government chose to turn industrial action into a weapon of the phoney culture war and that effected England more as devolved governments settled their disputes sooner. Then there’s this...

SNP? NHS England figures.

Saw an interesting interview with a woman from save British farming who pointed to an article in the Telegraph saying that the protesting EU farmers have stolen our brexit thunder. She pointed out that the same paper regularly lambasted eu farmers, especially French farmers for their protesting...
