@floraselvatica @CounterCuntist @AlanJLSmith That child is getting a step up in life through being the son of a wealthy enough individual to send his child to private school. Sorry if we don't cry for him when there's plenty of children who struggle through life by not being born wealthy

@ChrisWebby @Renmakesmusic You guys are setting an example for all of us on how we should be treating those who don't necessarily share our beliefs. There's a lot more that unites us than divides us.

[Pete Hague @peteyh40]

@AlexBuckenham6 @United24media I agree. Blackened the Barnsley name. Bastard

@LKoPBO @BRTANorthernEng What's wrong with the 195s? They're a massive upgrade from the 150s they've replaced around me.

@RTSElectronics @Rusia_HD You sir are deluded n drink the KOOL aid. May you have many long nights of tariff dreams and livid nights of how your allies abandon you in your hour of need

[Pete Hague @peteyh40]

@Renmakesmusic I agree. Is this part of the reason you collaborated with Webby? You seem a progressive liberal thinker while Webby is quite open about being a trump voter. Seeing you guys work together with quite different outlooks on life has actually been refreshing

@DecodedWatch @WarMonitor3 In the next parliament 😡 it needs to be done in this one. The world is in the most dangerous period since the end of the cold war and we're letting our military capability crumble due to underfunding. Idiocy

[Pete Hague @peteyh40]

@GrandlagoonPCB9 @WarMonitor3 In what way are we trying to lose? We are just refreshing the design of our bank notes due to having a relatively new king. The old ones still feature the head of Queen Elizabeth II. As the new monarch Charles gets a say in what he wants on the new notes n chose wildlife

@DS6691277180059 @sentdefender God is a fictitious being. And if he was a real thing I don't think he'd be too happy about Donald breaking near enough every one of the 10 commandments..

My monologue from today’s The Times at One with Andrew Neil:

As often happens with President Trump, it’s not long before you end up in fantasyland. 

Yesterday, in a long and at times incoherent social media post, he suddenly announced the US would start ‘guiding’ — his word —  commercial ships out of the Strait of Hormuz, where they have been stranded by his War on Iran. 

On the face of it — at last an effort to unblock this vital supply route for the global economy. 

Of course, it turned out to be no such thing. There will be no US Navy escort for stranded ships to go through the Strait in convoy. Or the navies of any other countries for that matter. 

Just a so-called ‘co-ordination cell’ involving countries, insurance companies and shipping lines sharing data. Trump has dubbed it ‘Project Freedom’. But there will be precious few ships freed by this latest wheeze. 

The UK’s Maritime Trade Operations agency, which works in tandem with the Royal Navy, said this morning the security threat level in the Strait remained ‘critical’. As long as that’s the case ships won’t risk the passage without Iran’s approval. 

And that was before we had Iran claiming this morning to have hit a US frigate. America is categorical that none of its ships has been hit. 

At first Tehran didn’t deign to respond to Trump’s latest initiative. But this morning Iran warned it would attack any commercial ships or US warships that tried to transit the Strait without its permission, reminding everyone it was in control of the Strait, which, of course, it wasn’t before Trump began his attacks on Iran. 

Over 1,600 ships are now trapped on either side of the Strait. Only those of whom Iran approves and prepared to stump up $2m per ship to Tehran are allowed through.

The truth is Trump has no idea how to reopen the Strait — or how to bring his war to an acceptable end. 

He’s just rejected Iran’s latest peace proposals, which were full of unacceptable nonsense — suggesting the tyrants of Tehran are still in no rush for peace. But what happens next is anybody’s guess. 

Mine is that Trump will simply play for time, as he has in Gaza. Last year, to much fanfare, he announced peace had broken out in the strip and reconstruction would begin. 

Since when, there’s been very little peace and no reconstruction. But our attention has moved on. Gaza makes few headlines these days, even though it’s still grim on the ground. 

Trump will be hoping for the same attention deficit towards Iran. Both sides have stopped raining down missiles, bombs and drones on each other. Not much else is happening. Nothing to see here. Let’s move along. 

However, there is one mighty difference with Gaza: the Strait of Hormuz. The longer that stays closed the more the global economy is likely to be crippled. That’s already happening in Asia, where shortages are spreading and economies grinding to a halt. 

The same fate is heading our way, slowly but surely. We are heading for shortages and massive price rises in all manner of materials — not just oil and gas — but jet fuel, helium, naphtha, fertilisers  — about which we know little but which are, in fact, vital to normal life. 

No jet fuel, no flying. 
No helium, no microchips, no microchips, no cars or household appliances, never mind the AI developments currently keeping the US stock market afloat. 
No fertilisers, no food. 
No naphtha, no building blocks for everything from textiles to rubber to car parts. 

If, come June, the Strait is still closed then we will be entering a summer of misery thanks to Trump’s War. The chances grow by the day. 

It has dawned on Tehran that controlling the Strait is a far more powerful weapon than a nuclear bomb. Though it’s not giving up on that either. 

As the rest of us suffer, Trump will be declaring a fantasy victory. Which makes you wonder: if this is victory, what would defeat look like?

@GalaxyNewsUnit @AkLurker @Aviation_Intel Manpower is all very well n good but if you don't have the tools to scale up production, then you'll be waiting years to reequip. They're probably making as much as they can now with the tools they have. To start doing hundreds in a day you'd need to equip multiple factories

I'm wondering if any of the pronouncements of the Muslim Council of Britain may be Britophobic...

Let's stop playing with loaded words and let's examine
to what extent Islam can integrate with British values

Do they insist on Female Genital Mutilation, Marriage between cousins, Restrictions on Dog Owning, Child Marriage, Halal Slaughter, Public Praying other than in Mosques, and the Intention to Replace all other Religions in Britain other than Islam ?

I'd like to know

@Hulk_ThePatriot @NOBODY_4_POTUS @samson99974 @ReallyAmerican1 No threat. An angry violent mob storms the seat of government, they overrun all the police outside and violently beat some of them to death. Those officer inside that room probably were fearing for their lives and someone tries to break into the room they are in. They're a threat

@DukesGixer @JonathanPieNews @AntSpeaks The thing is it's not porn, it's child porn and that's illegal. If a website is known to host child porn it is removed from the internet and the owners liable for charges. X should be no different. Oh n by your response I also assume that you are a nonce.
