After years in the airline industry, a change into the world of Maritime Robotics felt like a sensible one. Only time will tell...

A sobering segment in the BBC’s build-up to Wales v France.

The WRU believe that they have support from the fans and players.

The Welsh rugby public say otherwise.

With my pilot hat on, I'd suggest that was a 2 stroke petrol. Propellor driven drone. You can hear it when the first drone cuts power just before impact

A fantastic letter. Unfortunately, I suspect it will be wholeheartedly ignored.

And what difference did those words make? Did they stop the genocide? Did they influence Netanyahu in any way? Did they save a single life?

I just want to be clear back. That is hyperbolic, incorrect garbage.

It is exceedingly complex and if you understood your history, you'd know how complex it was even in WW2.

Please show me where I said that. That is the worst take possible. Please take your head out of your backside, as no-one is saying that other than the Israeli Govt.

Would you like to not make stupid comments on the Internet. Thanks. That would be appreciated.

You did nothing of the sort. You made a sweeping assumption based upon a single comment. This is the scourge of social media. People make incorrect and totally false comments based upon their own prejudices and assumptions.

They are always wrong.

This is genuinely pathetic. If all you can all do is make sweeping and incorrect assumptions and attack others, then you are all as bad as Reform idiots when it comes to behaviour on-line.

You see, you have no idea who you are talking to when you say stupid things like that. BTW, next month, my Auschwitz surviving grandmother will be 106.

LoL. Just no. This is just a person realising that the lack of respect for other people's viewpoints is just as bad on Blue-sky as it is on twitter, so deciding to leave you all to it.

10.02.2026 10:09 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 2    πŸ“Œ 0

I am perfectly fine with my moral stance. I despise what has been done and I can assure you that I feel as disgusted and upset as you or anyone else does about what has happened to Palestine. It is despicable. The decision to attack Palestine is down to that criminal Netanyahu and his gov't alone.

Do you honestly think that other people aren't aware that Trump is a vile POS? Is that some magical insight that only you have?

10.02.2026 08:09 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

And there we go. Immediately resorting to insults.

Play the issue not the player, that way you don't perpetuate the hate spiral that social media brings to complex discussions.

My lines, your lines and the whole of the UK's lines are irrelevant. That is the point I'm making.

Well done for immediately assuming that anyone who doesn't agree completely with you is OK with slaughter. What a ridiculous position to hold.

10.02.2026 07:55 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 2    πŸ“Œ 1

Mine is already full George. I would live to know exactly what you think any world leader other than Trump or Netanyahu could have realistically done to stop the horror in Palestine?

The real world is disgustingly messy. I wish it could be as simple as you want it to be.

We are not bemused. We fully understand that in a complex world, leaders have to take unpalatable decisions at times, especially when dealing with megalomaniacs with more power.

Whilst it is tempting to break the world into simplistic black and white views, it really isn't that easy

I think we can safely say that the left of the Labour party have truly lost all reason and sense.

Well done Lewis, it is richly deserved. Your journalism and willingness to actually put forward opinions based on fact mark you out as what journalism should be. Compared to the dire mess that is BBC political reporting, you are superb and do it right.

It will be France by 14. Though not 14pts. 14 tries...

So that justifies trying to destroy a Government that is doing some very good things?

That justifies opening the door to the far-right who will destroy our country and political system?

Maybe calm down a bit. You appear to be ranting.

09.02.2026 09:33 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

We get it. We get the fact that Labour left will never forgive Starmer for actually winning an election.

Watching the left trying to self destruct it's own Government is just astonishing.

What is your end game? What do you actually want? Farage in no.10 so you can sit and grumble rather than lead?

09.02.2026 09:31 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 3    πŸ“Œ 0

I certainly do. The WRU aren't listening to fans at all. So the only way we can make our voices heard is by voting with our feet and wallets.

09.02.2026 08:16 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Honestly, we are so bored of political commentators desperately trying to make stories more serious than they actually are.

Go and look at the really awful stuff going on and focus on those. We've had enough political journo onanism.

You are luckily in a civilised country that doesn't have to suffer from the scourge of ITV rugby coverage.
