@Danny_McMoomins This reminds me of the time the gestating foetus in my wife's belly kept kicking her when Farage came on the telly and wouldn't stop until we changed the channel

@Martel0062 @MZHemingway Well if ALL Americans agree with you, it should be a doddle passing a constitutional amendment

@DicVerbumVerax @BasedMikeLee Welcome to learning about the downside to having a codified constitution with a very high bar for sny amendments. Something opponents of the Second Amendment have long known about.

[I-Po74 💙 @IPo74]

@robsilvester @PeoplesMomentum Fair enough. But the Defence budget is seeing a large increase which could be used to do that.

@ASFleischman So now a SCJ can ignore the constitution based on their feelings about the perceived outcome of a constitutional law? I thought the right didn't like "activist" judges?

@ajjaksbkzks @SpeakerPelosi They are actual Americans. That's what your constitution says. If you don't like it, go and live in another country that doesn't have birthright citizenship.

@Aesop_NPV @EricLeeAtty Perhaps. But one of the Supreme Court's roles is o protect the constitution, good or bad.

@robsilvester @PeoplesMomentum If you can't name a likely aggressor that's an indicator we're not under any short to medium term threat and due to the same rate of technological advancement any investment in defence now is likely to be wasted

@ross_baglin @JohnHealey_MP @fleetstreetfox Well, I wouldn't go that far. I would expect John to have the answers to these and other questions though to reassure us that this isn't just vested interests exaggerating real concerns about Russia to get the Treasury to cough up.

[I-Po74 💙 @IPo74]

@JohnHealey_MP @fleetstreetfox spending is not increased what are it's expected chances of success?

[I-Po74 💙 @IPo74]

@JohnHealey_MP @fleetstreetfox John, is the 2030 date based on Russia winning the Ukraine war or does it assume the current near stalemate? Is it based on Russia keeping it's current war economy? What sort of strike are we talking about - what would be it's assumed objectives and if current defence (1/2)

@pictureladyjan @SimonPartridge @davidyelland those, their job is a lot easier. Historically, this is more difficult for Labour PMs than Conservative PMs because the Tories get more favourable coverage from the press.

[I-Po74 💙 @IPo74]

@pictureladyjan @SimonPartridge @davidyelland Well when you consider the media whitewashed the fact that at the last election Starmer got half a million fewer voters than "Labour's worst election since 1935" it's par for the course. Modern political reporting is about the story and narrative - IF a politician can set (1/2)
