    Re: Renationalising The Trains

    I agree. I also don't think the system is entirely broken. Until covid and WFH, the growth in passengers was huge, so some things are right. The range of universal railcards is great too. I make use...

    The whole topic is complex, reduced down for the internet age to an edited video clip.

    The question wasnt entirely clear, Goma is the 10th largest city in the Democratic Republic of Congo (I looked this morning!) and to me it's clearly a rhetorical question. Both DR Congo and Rwanda...

    Yeah he looks unprofessional because people try to reduce down a complex situation to a few seconds of edited video.

    Re: Renationalising The Trains

    Yeah my understanding is that the Railways are already effectively nationalised. What isnt is the companies running the services.

    I'm broadly supportive of nationalisation, as I am with water (as...

    SNP

    Agreement with the Greens collapsed now. A party really with a lot of problems and now in a minority with no election planned until mid 2026 wouldn't be surprised if it all collapsed.

    Re: Defence Spending To Go Up ?

    It's because it's a NATO commitment and we are members of NATO. We are far closer to it than other, in fact I think we already surpass the 2% target.

    Worth noting that the arrest of Tommy Robinson that was discussed at length here during the antisemitism rally came to a head today, as the dispersal order was ruled unlawful.

    No driving pun intended, but I've never been one of those people who criticises U-turns and sees them as a sign of weakness. If anything they are a sign of strength, albeit one at significant cost.
