My views change periodically, I listen to others however I don’t listen to those who can’t be arsed to follow back! or even respond occasionally.

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

@LouiesChelsea @WendyRo11208996 well said i totally agree with you fwiw.

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

@shearernorthern @kajakallas falling for propaganda! you sir have lost the plot, i am fed up with your baiting comments based upon your left wing bias and increasingly desperate anti israel anti british anti everything approach to life! time for a reality check me thinks and time for you to put up or shut up

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

Well given the current state of Britain I feel well placed to answer your question, I would fight for what is rightfully mine knowing full well that I would quickly be herded up by the leftists. And before you get on your high horse that sir includes you!

[Peter Shearer @shearernorthern]

@OldCrom @kajakallas First you tell me what you would do if someone imprisoned you in your own country? And it is the child in you that repeatedly falls for the ridiculous Israeli propaganda.

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

@shearernorthern @kajakallas There you go again! You are obsessed . Tell us what you would do if you were an Israeli living alongside those who repeatedly fight against you, time to take stock of your ridiculous ideas and grow up.

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

That’s great if you know all the radicals, and can get them on a plane, trouble is they always go for the sympathy vote then
Stab us in the back!

[John Healey @JohnColonelputt]

@OldCrom Remove the radicals and their followers, simples...

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

Ok so what are you gonna do about it?

[John Healey @JohnColonelputt]

@models_by_Russ I don't think it's Islam as such, it's radical Islam that is the problem.

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

Or even great grandparents in Bradford!

[Stuart Macintosh @stueymaco]

@grok @werelostinmusi6 @lily_lna All 3 could be grandparents in Leeds.

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

I think the POTUS is a dick however the problem we all have is that America has been used and abused and while we complain (rightfully) our efforts do not go unnoticed on that side of the pond, other than by the dumb ass president!!!

[RosesrRed @CheeseCake7659]

@afneil So can hear from the likes of Middleton, Tomee, Farage, Tice etc...ah all gone silent over there has it...not 1 with the balls to call this out so they dont have to smash up their own charade of being grifters by being pro Trump...disgraceful behavior

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

I have no blinkers concerning the role of our own recidivists
What I do see however is a growth in grooming gangs, a growth in fraud and a growth in cries of racism as soon as it is mentioned. Don’t be a knob why not accept our concerns and stop race baiting please!

[Peter Shearer @shearernorthern]

@OldCrom And all white English people are of course law abiding and lovely! And you say so I am sheltered!

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

Not at all but they do drain our resources and they do fail to embrace Britishness preferring to maintain a dress code which you and I would not. I have been in their houses they like to chuck out things into back passages, always on the lookout for a scam, sorry Pierre all true!

[Peter Shearer @shearernorthern]

@OldCrom So you think immigrants are to blame for all our woes? The people at the bottom of the chain not those at the top? And when you stop immigration you think magically everything will be fine?

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

@shearernorthern If only you ocassionally uttered something reasonable, just once would be good, but hey ho I shall put it down to your sheltered upbringing and Lack of real life experience, living in the sticks might be in part to blame but seriously which planet do you normally inhabit?

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

Nor I Macduff, tell me pray what will the left do for me? And are you completely oblivious to the impact on our society of the ever increasing numbers of migrants who never actually assimilate into society preferring instead to impose their own standards surely you are not blind?

[Peter Shearer @shearernorthern]

@OldCrom No I condemn all crime. I just don’t make it a racist issue.

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

I appreciate that this meets your agenda, likewise I never see your condemnation of rape gangs or migrants eating at our expense but as I said all of you lefties conveniently ignore this concentrating instead on matters which are quite frankly ridiculous.

[Peter Shearer @shearernorthern]

@OldCrom Are you seriously telling me that you have not worked out the dangerous influence of the Israeli lobby on the UK? Or is your blindness to the far rights agenda just more important than the truth? People objecting to plausible genocide is really not surprising!

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

Certainly is in the world of the left, firstly this bloke is sacrificial,
The odour surrounding this is bloody awful, particularly because yet again the left are attacking sport for headlines, so the left love the Muslims whilst the right are once again wrong, that’s it then!

[Peter Shearer @shearernorthern]

@EvacTony I would think how many are Zionists is a much more pertinent question?

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

They all make Trump look good!

[Benonwine @benonwine]

What do you call this group of people?

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

I bet this makes complete sense to you and your mates Pierre. @shearernorthern

Sentiments of Venezuelans

I’m going to say this once, and I don’t care if it makes people uncomfortable.

If you have never lived in Venezuela
If you did not grow up there
If you did not watch your country collapse in real time
If you did not stand in food lines
If you did not watch your parents lose everything they built
If you did not have to leave your home with nothing

Then shut the fuck up.

You do not have an opinion.
Your opinion does not matter.
And you don’t get to lecture anyone about what’s happening there.

I’m Venezuelan.
I lived there most of my life until my early twenties.
I watched my country go from a functioning democracy to full blown socialism right in front of my eyes.

This is not politics to me.
This is trauma.

Before socialism, Venezuela was not perfect, but it worked.
There was trade.
There was money coming in.
There was investment from the US.
There were jobs.
There was food.
There was medicine.

My family had five businesses.
We had our home
We had investments.
We had a future.

Then the government started nationalizing everything.
Private companies were taken.
Foreign investors were pushed out.
Imports were blocked.
Price controls destroyed production.
Corruption exploded.

And everything died.

Not slowly.
Violently.

People didn’t suddenly become poor because of “capitalism” or “the US” or whatever bullshit slogan people like to repeat online.

They became poor because socialism destroyed incentives, destroyed production, destroyed trust, and destroyed hope.

People today in Venezuela are not debating ideology.
They are trying to survive.

They are trying to find food.
Trying to find medication.
Trying to keep their families alive.

So when I see people in the West posting from comfortable homes, full fridges, stable currencies, and safe streets talking about “imperialism” or “US bad” or “Trump this or that”

No.
It’s not complicated.
You’re just ignorant.

China is not rebuilding Venezuela.
Russia is not rebuilding Venezuela.
Cartels are not rebuilding Venezuela.

They are stealing.
They are extracting.
They are draining what’s left.

If the US comes in and reinvests
If refineries get rebuilt
If infrastructure gets restored
If imports open back up
If food, water, and medicine become accessible again
If people can work and earn with dignity

Then yes.
Let them take all the oil they want.

Because at least something gets built instead of destroyed.

This is something to celebrate.
Not because it’s perfect.
But because for the first time in a long time, there is hope.

Hope that families can eat.
Hope that people don’t have to flee their country.
Hope that Venezuela can function again.

If you’ve never lived through a country collapsing
If you’ve never watched socialism destroy everything around you
If you’ve never had to leave your home because staying meant starvation

Then again
Shut the fuck up.

This isn’t theory.
This isn’t politics.
This is lived experience.

I take it you’re not keen then, what do you do in your spare time?

[Jake 🌹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 @ToryWipeout]

Shove your fox hunting up your arse.

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

A dentist perhaps!

[Benonwine @benonwine]

If Zack Polanski wasn’t leader of the Green Party what job would he be doing?

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

Yes they did!

[oldcrom @OldCrom]

Come on why should any government be obliged to support these people. It is them to whom you should vent your fury I’m one of those who does not own or require a keffiyeh, after all until recently there were very few Bedouins in the UK .

[Dr Rahmeh Aladwan @doctor_rahmeh]

Britain is so unwilling to oppose 'israel' that it would rather let its own citizens die than uphold their rights—forcing the UN to intervene. This disgrace will be written in history.
