Sadly for the USA the level of stupidity of its President grows day by day week by week. The situation that presents in the Persian Gulf is the obvious example of this stupidity. Trump is acting more like Frank Spencer than Forrest Gump in that the hapless Gump managed to make things overall better ...

Trump is being played for the fool that he is by both Putin and Bibi. 

The rest of the world and the ordinary Americans will pay the price.

In their respective leagues Bayern and PSG do not really have another team that is a consistent threat. In La Liga Barca and RM only have one another as a consistent threat. The PL is different in that respect and the extra level of competitiveness takes its toll on a team the more so at the climax ...

He was a big lad, tried hard and us supporters had an affection for him. However his first touch and overall maladroitness on the ball meant he would never become a top player. Ade Coker by comparison was a more polished player, having come through our junior ranks, but like Best did not have all th...

There is a story about some posh young people, spending a weekend at Belvoir Castle, who were given four tickets to see Chelsea play a home game at Stamford Bridge, a four thirty kick off.

They jumped into their limo programmed the new fangled sat nav and ended up in a small village in Yorkshire.

The PL is the best in terms of its competitiveness. But there its superiority ends.

Could we be doing a Wigan 2013?

Winning the FA Cup but also being relegated third bottom with 36 points.

The danger to society is not the profane, the misogynistic or racist terms that are posted and eliminating them is simply cleansing the rhetoric. No the danger is in the insidious use of lies, miss representation or deliberate suppression of facts and denigration of people who challenge challenge al...

I notice that missing from the stubbo list is an automatic flag for lies.

Is this because lies do not matter, that lying is such common currency it’s irrelevant or even that it’s a mistake to take a liar’s words literally?

The surprise result yesterday was Scotland beating France not us losing in Rome.

Disagree with you Onebilly because the big winner from what is going on will be ……….Israel.

In fact all of what has been going on regarding the Gulf has been steered by Isreal. So clever have they been that really  astute people like you and Trump have been fooled.

Big Spurs fan Peter Cook. Wonder what he’d be saying if still around?

It is interesting to see Trump now firmly in the pocket of Bibi.

This venture into Iran is where Trump has jumped the shark and it’s good to see the rest of nato staying firm in readiness but not getting dragged into this illegal enterprise.

Thre F15s downed by “Freindly” fire.

Scum, that link you posted up shows how the FPP system can be hijacked. This problem can be mitigated by having a PR system for Westminster votes. It beggars belief that at a moment in time when the imbalance at Westminster is so stark the electorate, and politicians alike, are not clamouring for a ...

Perceptions vary person to person.

I see both Reform and Restore as basically the same party that used to be UKIP.

As for the Tories with the nastier element deserting them for R and R they are struggling to reposition themselves and retain credibility. They are somewhat stuck in a bind.

 

Let’s not be mealy mouthed about what the “West” did in the time up to Putin’s invasion the fact of the matter is that a virtual dictatorship has invaded a democratic country and holds a significant amount of territory. Putin was under no military threat whatsoever from Ukraine or NATO but as a nucl...

Died exactly a year ago today.

In the USA the top 1% hold a third of the nation’s wealth. The upper decile are getting richer exponentially at the expense of the other 90% it seems.

It’s almost as if he is being controlled by Putin.

Two teams in the PL are unbeaten in their last six league games they being ManU and Bournemouth. In our quest to avoid relegation we have drawn with both teams during their runs. Those games would earlier in the season have been defeats so maybe it’s two points gained rather than being lost. Notwith...

Windsor and Mandelson sharing a cell.

Seems in reply to what I posted only one of you mentioned the need to address the issue of our economy ( that’s 1 Billy ) but the rest were almost entirely exercised about immigration. These two leaders need to be forensically examined about their proposals for the other important problems facing us...

Anyone who thinks that the multi millionaires behind Reform and Restore have as a priority the wellbeing of the average Brit is delusional. Whatever their ultimate intent data shows that over time the wealth of this country has migrated increasingly towards the already very rich. What will Farage/Lo...

With all due respect to the views of the Nurse we need a system of Westminster democracy where everyone’s vote counts. To have governments taking power despite two thirds of the electorate voting against them flies in the face of democracy. Labour right now, because of their massive majority, are on...
