I checked. Of 19, 15 Saudi, the rest Egypt, UAE and Lebanon.
I fact, looking at US terrorist attacks, how many perpetrators were in fact refugees from Trump’s little list?
Refugee bs. That’s not really understanding what is happening. How many refugees would wish to attack the nation that took them in? Indeed, how many of the 9/11 perpetrators were in fact refugees? Come to mention it, how many came from countries on the list, and how many actually came from Saudi Arabia, which is not?
I would be interested. Do you mean props, hubs or blades? DH or Rotol?
If you are looking to buy from someone who who really doesn’t know what they are worth, the answer is.. scrap value. And if they are undamaged unused blades or even better complete units and they believe you.. drinks are on you.
No one is arguing that he isn’t doing what he said he would, or that in his head he isn’t putting America first.
Doesn’t make it a) smart or b) right.
Yes, worth a read as it is well argued (as you’d expect from lawyers, on both sides of any case). But also worth a read is this,

– explaining who Lawyers for Britain are, what their agenda is and that they hold the minority view as expressed by the legal profession.
One can say the same when it comes to corruption in private schools – and an awful lot worse. My father taught Physics and was a housemaster for 20 years in a minor public school, retiring only last year. Some of the things he was asked to do in exchange for bribes, mostly from Chinese and Russian parents, would make your curlies straighten.
Capitalism unleashed.
Sorry but have you used British railways over the last four decades as I have?
The massive drop in service levels and safety coupled with a hike in prices came after privatisation. Blaming leftism for this is.. well, it’s John Greenish. Please don’t let the Conservatives re-write history on this as well.
The taxpayer is covering the cost of the strike because the current government decreed they should.
A deal had been made with Southern Railways where they, the company, got free government money (ie ours) to ensure that they aren’t affected by having striking workers, just the public are. Before you accuse me of reading things banned by your wife, John, that’s from the Telegraph.
It is more important to this government that shareholders don’t ‘suffer’ a reduced profit than it is to resolve a strike and have everyone return to work and provide a service. And that’s a left wing Government? Clue – no, it isn’t.
It is not a left wing Government presiding over this litany of crises in our services. We have not had one of those for a very long time. And as has been pointed out, when a bank or a railway has gone particularly far up the spout it is put into public ownership to improve until has recovered enough to be milked again.
Thanks for explaining Obamacare. I admit it seems complicated to this Brit, who pays his taxes and has a health service, plain and simple. Of course, this won’t last.
Re. Impeachment – it may be pissing in the wind, I suppose it would require an outbreak of non-partisan principle among both the ‘establishment’ and the New Order for it to be anything else.
It looks like a part of the campaign is to promote this very idea.
Indeed. Arguably another reason resignation is a more principled stance in this case than opposition
Pravda.. a Freudian reference to that long repressed belief in the inherant truth of socialism, John?*
One side is going to quote Pravda, the other Volkischer Beobachter. Either way, that’s where the ‘evidence’ is to support the argument – it wouldn’t appear in the other. You can’t hold that against anyone. It’s faking news.. what used to be called lying.. by the news media that’s the issue here. Some do, some don’t.
*not serious
I get what you’re saying. I guess it’s down to interpretation of the role of an MP in national decisions like this one – does one continue to represent one’s constituents (and that’s the main point of the job, after all) or does one act to make them irrelevant because as a body they hold a view that is, nationally, a minority one?
I know that in practice defying the whip makes no difference, but the point is one of principle not practice – and I can see how the principle of service to her constituents contradicts the principle of service to her party and the nation to an irresolvable degree that makes her position untenable. It is perhaps an inevitable result of referenda that those few MP’s who remember what they are supposed to be doing there – representing their constituents – will sometimes face this dilema.
Testing testing one two one two. Ok, back. And frontal lobes functioning.
Which means I can point out that the ‘revolutionary’ bit highlighted by the ex-judge is an order that allows a beaurocrat – at his or her own individual ‘discretion’ – to invoke ‘individual over government’ when deciding whether the rule of law applies to a fellow citizen. Not just whether they should pay their taxes, but in any case where a beaurocrat is responsible for applying law.
If this is meant to reduce the power of beaurocracy, drain swamps etc.. Can you see a flaw in this, RpR? How this may not have been thought through? I’m sure the judge can, but Fox would fire him for mentioning it.
If I wanted to read a Fox opinion piece I’d lobotomise myself and type it into the browser with my bleeding forehead.
I do not deny anything. That’s your false assumption and one that is made too often when shouting at the minority.
Being in a majority or having your will enacted democratically – which the pro-Europeans I know accept has happened and agree is the only thing that should happen – does not in itself say anything about relative cleverness. Nothing at all.
If you can not see rare principle behind a local MP resigning rather than obey a three-line-whip on a vote that runs contrary to the majority view of her own constituents then you wouldn’t recognise it anywhere.
By the way, we have suffrage. I am not sure some voters in the referendum are likely to grow balls any time soon.
Respect.
Principles. Rare.
