Was reading how Trump is planning to do a peaceful takeover of Cuba.

He is choking them out of fuel and other supply shipments, so is this, "become part of the U.S., or die?"

Grabbing Cuba might make us safer, but WTF?!?!

I know, he wants to build another Trump tower! ๐Ÿคฎ

I agree
On some levels China is making progress but this undoes all of that

Killing a bunch of elementary school girls to distract from having raped a bunch of middle- and high-school girls is pretty fucking grim.

I see Fartage is saying the vote was fraudulent hahaha. I'd say TRump told him to say that

Privatisation of the NHS has carried on expanding here in County Durham

We'll see.
I've read many articles and nowhere have I seen anything about the renationalisation of water or the reinstating of in-house NHS services like ambulances, testing etc. Where can i see this? I'm all in favour of surgeries being done privately to clear backlogs by the way

And the difference between them and Atlee? Neither are further left than Atlee. Are you saying there would be no room in the modern world for Atlee? Is that why Labour isn't removing the contracts given to private companies to run NHS services? Or Water companies?

Was Atlee an idealist? I suppose these days people would say he was, yet he achieved so much

Medical cannabis would have meant that was unnecessary. That's very sad for her

Are you saying they are better off suffering brain damage from fits? Or dying? I am advocating medical cannabis. Read the article. This isn't street cannabis. It's made to very rigorous, regulated standards, here in the UK

Not medical cannabis. It's the high THC that causes those things.

No. Livestock is treated the same and it's unacceptable for both

Ok, so when are we storming into that facility to save the children? And the teenage girls who are apparently kept separated from everyone else? When is anyone hoing to do something for these kids?

If you consume animal products you've been directly supporting the Badger cull. Facts.
