European Paul

As a male Primary School teacher I worked for quite a number of female Headteachers. In my experience they were no better or worse than the males. There were some who were very good professionally and charismatic. Equally there was one who was eventually dismissed for bullying.

Hopefully Starmer will at last get the message that chasing Reform will not garner him the votes needed to replace the loss of support on the left of British politics.

Hegseth is an ignorant fool the epitome of all that is the worst of the US. It also neatly demonstrates why our future is with a European defence pact not with an unreliable US.

I am sure that the intention was not to kill young girls in this case, however, the IDF has shown a complete disregard for innocent lives and has actively targeted institutions which are protected under International Law.

The Israelis have targeted hospitals, journalists, schools, mosques essential infrastructure like water and sewage systems. They have killed tens of thousands women and children always with excuse of eliminating Hamas. Are we really surprised that a school with children inside was blown up in Iran?

The Commonwealth migrants came later and it seems to be these that Reform has a problem with. We are a mongrel nation and better for it.

We were then invaded by the Angles, Saxons, Jutes, Vikings and the Normans. We also have had many other migrants from the Flemish weavers, French Huguenots, German Protestants, Jewish refugees and the Irish during the potato famine.

We are not an ‘ancient race’. Our Royal family are descended from the Normans who were originally Vikings. The earliest identifiable tribes were Celtic who could possibly claim to be an ancient race inhabiting Britain from about 600 BC.

He is a plastic patriot, a jumped up commentator. I suspect that he would be the last person to face fire. I worked with the army in the middle east and witnessed some of the appalling injuries our troops suffered and I am beyond furious at his casual dismissal of our brave troops.

Hegseth comments on the traditional allies were both nasty and ignorant. European forces particularly British have supported the US in two Gulf Wars and the Afghan War. Wars fought at the behest of the US which resulted in many deaths and life changing injuries amongst our brave servicemen and women

Disgusting comments by PeterHegseth about ‘weak traditional allies’. He seems to forget the two Gulf Wars and the Afghan War which were fought primarily at the request of the Americans by British and European troops who suffered many deaths and life changing injuries. A nasty ignorant man.

I would think he would target anybody who was black or brown and following Trumps playbook he would try to demand access to the electoral rolls so he could disenfranchise anybody he doesn’t like.

I thought that was always the case. The fact that some people are not white and might be Muslim doesn’t make them not British citizens.

Where have we heard that before!

Just wondering is there a Congress?

Perhaps the Israelis discovered Hamas in the basement.

Does that apply to Farage’s wife.

Does the US still have a Congress or Senate for that matter?

It is difficult to believe that so called intelligent people have not learned the lesson of Iraq.

The Labour Party needs to become a Labour Party in other words. The first step might be to remove Starmer and all his right wing acolytes.

Stirring racial hatred in this way ought to be banned and it’s mouthpieces like The Daily Mail closed down.

All the bombing will do is create resentment and destruction. It won’t remove the regime. So how will it end the war against the US and its allies. What is the plan?

Trump has made us all less safe. International Law has gone and it will embolden any despot who feels like attacking their neighbours and Iran will become a breeding ground for terrorism.

How long will it take before she realises that she is a member of the Labour Party rather than Reform lite?

Reform is simply following the Tories down the rabbit hole of hate and division. They are rhetoric heavy and policy light. If elected the sort of chaos and corruption that we saw under Johnson would become the norm.

If any factories are built they will almost certainly be staffed mainly by robots driven by AI.

I wonder what the consequences will be for the teachers. I well remember Special Needs advisors turning up with lists of things I should do three or four children in a class of thirty which were almost impossible to implement while managing the rest of the class.

The impact of Send changes: four likely scenarios for children - The Guardian

MAGA is such a caring organisation. It is a shame the care doesn’t extend to all those Americans bankrupted by medical bills and those who are denied medical care because they haven’t got the funds.

The voters of Clacton must be thrilled to learn that Farage is having a holiday in the Maldives.
