I certainly did but the issue here is the flag of a foreign nation covering the country.

Why is Ireland on that map? Absolutely crazy you would include a sovereign independent country with your UK flag.

Such profound ignorance, not only about Ireland but of what your own country actual consists of.

โšก๏ธ Germanyโ€™s Chancellor Merz says Russia only understands forceโ€”so the West must show it.

After deadly Russian strikes on civilians, he urges tougher EU and US sanctions, more weapons for Ukraine, and warns: no peace talks without pressure.

Elon Musk is cutting off his funding to Donald Trump.

Like Rupert Murdoch, Elon Musk has been used and now he is irrelevant.

Trump is making Europe great again The US president has provided the biggest stimulus towards European integration since the end of the cold war

"Trump is making Europe great again. The US president has provided the biggest stimulus towards European integration since the end of the cold war"

Can the US switch off Europeโ€™s weapons? Long hooked on American defence exports, allies feel buyersโ€™ remorse over hardware dependent on Washington support

US defense companies might never be trusted again

Note: you will NEVER find a human-planted tree that looks anything like this. Only natural processes, evolved over 100s of millions of years, produce such variety.

Just another one of many reasons why natural regeneration, not planting, should be the default means of bringing back our lost forests.
