    Re: The Donald Trump thread

    The documentary on Channel 4 - Trump's Heist - is frightening. Well worth a look.
  2. Re: Tonight @ 9PM EST - Queen Kamala vs Orange Man Bad

    Thanks to Trump's baseless nonsense there is now unrest in the town (Springfield, Ohio) with Haitian folk feeling threatened, afraid to go out, etc. Apparently it is a town which is under going a bit...
  3. Re: A year ago after 5 games we were just 3 points better off

    Having seen his name pop up on here, I just took a look at his career achievements just out of interest.

    It's an unenviable record - I didn't realise...

    Probably reading:

    Re: More taxes on pensioners and drivers?

    Of course it is. Just putting it into perspective that's all. Labour already getting some stick because of recent zero economic growth. The forecast was apparently , wait for it, a mighty 0.2% - wow,...

    Re: More taxes on pensioners and drivers?

    £22 billion sounds a lot, hence Hunt was probably duty bound to make it sound like a wildly exaggerated figure. Until you discover that total spending is over £1200 billion and £22 billion is just...

    Re: More taxes on pensioners and drivers?

    Free bus passes seem the next obvious target I think. Also, yes, a road tax system based on actual mileage could be in the pipeline. This will hit rural folk hardest as public transport is very...

    Re: More taxes on pensioners and drivers?

    I read that government spending is of the order of £1200 billion overall, so the infamous £22 billion seems like petty cash! And the £1 billion saving on the winter fuel allowance is just small...
  9. Re: Tonight @ 9PM EST - Queen Kamala vs Orange Man Bad

    I think so as we are 5 hours in front here in the UK of course. I guess there will be the inevitable preamble before the actual K.O.

    It seems he has stopped or maybe requires a higher dose regimen.
  11. Re: Tonight @ 9PM EST - Queen Kamala vs Orange Man Bad

    Yes. I think this is one of those "not to be missed" moments. It's on Sky News from midnight I believe.

    Re: 40 Killed In Hamas Attacks In Israel

    If this post is aimed at folk like me, can I say that I would not describe myself as being "entrenched in any particular beliefs" about the Palestinian situation. I follow this thread with interest...
  13. Re: Thoughts and Prayers.........again.........x25

    Yes indeed. As you probably know, I am a believer. As much as I don't want to believe it, I believe we are in the "endtimes" so these events are pretty predictable; but I won't go there lest I be...

    Re: 40 Killed In Hamas Attacks In Israel

    So you think intimidation is the reason? If so, isn't it odd that you never hear a bereaved father/mother who has lost his/her entire family blaming HAMAS? I watch Al Jazeera quite a lot and I have...

    Thanks for taking the time to reply. I think you may have hit the proverbial nail on the head with your statement:

    Civilian deaths are not unfortunate ‘collateral damage’ as you suggest but part...

    Re: 40 Killed In Hamas Attacks In Israel

    I take no side in this terrible situation. You have not addressed the issue that I raised but have simply reiterated the bleedin obvious - that both sides are guilty of horrific acts and both have...
  17. Re: Thoughts and Prayers.........again.........x25

    Take a look at the link I posted above. Some interesting statistics about attitudes of Americans to gun ownership depending on their age, location, gender, political leanings etc.

    Re: 40 Killed In Hamas Attacks In Israel

    Sorry but I can't see any connection here. The Guardian article is about the localized activities of settler thugs. I am talking about Palestinian homes deep within Gaza itself, somewhere I suspect...
  19. Re: Thoughts and Prayers.........again.........x25

    She's correct, it doesn't have to be this way but unfortunately a sizeable proportion of her fellow countrymen have enabled it to be this way with their obsession with guns.

    Genuinely interested if you have any comments as this is a topic where I never seen any discussion either on here or in the media. Is it fear of, or conversely, wholesale support of Hamas fighters by...

    Re: The Donald Trump thread

    Anyone thinking of staying up to watch the Trump vs Harris TV debate on Channel 4 on Wednesday? 1.30 am to 4.00 am UK time apparently, as the debate is on Tuesday evening in the USA.

  25. Re: How many of you pensioners lost your Winter fuel allowance?

    Not to worry about the fuel allowance - us oldies will likely be getting a rise next April in line with the increase in the average wage, rumoured to be of the order of 4% I believe. I have told my...
