"It's disgraceful that Nigel Farage is egging Donald Trump on as he attacks our institutions, our media, and the pockets of millions.”

Truly pathetic. Penniless immigrants push up house prices?

Surely it’s too early to judge? We’re only three and a half years in. It could so easily very soon all turn out well. The Russians could well be in Lisbon and Madrid by 2031! Having nuked London and Paris first, obviously.

Don’t forget this man suggests we save ourselves by colonising a dead planet.

Define β€˜lawful’ when dealing with masked thugs operating outside any legal constraints. You are supporting a society without the rule of law - you know, like Putin’s Russia

It had never happened before. It happened because of Trump’s totally false assertion that the election was rigged. He had organised his supporters to come to DC to disrupt the confirmation of the election results. Violence was very much in the cards - and he knew it.

Can you imagine Farridge’s agony as he awaits the news of the ethnicity/nationality/religion of the perpetrator of an outage? Immigrant/Muslim/small boat - two weeks joy on GBNews/Telegraph/Mail - otherwise another weekend in Clacton.

β€˜Capitol’ - get the basics right before asserting the other crap

Of course the Capitol had been violently entered by a vicious armed mob on countless previous occasions. Hadn’t it ?
What on earth had incited that? It was of course, Trump’s false assertion that the election was rigged. β€œGive me 15,000 votes” - there’s no clearer evidence of a criminal intent.

Ludicrous. Then why did he have the electronic gates detecting weaponry at his speech inciting violence turned off ? When had the National Guard EVER previously been required on this occasion ? How on earth can any of this be Pelosi’s fault ?

January 6 was a criminal attack on the democratic process. Trump deserved jail time- his incitement almost caused the death of his VP, and did cause other deaths.

Is that true ? Do European destinations require proof of vaccination? Isn’t it the case that the assumption has been made, up until now, that the vast majority of people from first-world countries are vaccinated ? Genuine question, I don’t know.

How long have we been reading of the imminent collapse of the Russian economy? Please let us know when it actually happens.

Russia’s evil aggression rewarded. It’s a funny old world. I am glad that several European leaders are attending - in an attempt to head off the gross bad manners displayed by Trump and his cronies last time.
What infantile tantrum will Trump throw this time ?

I agree. He has made American politics so toxic it’s hard to imagine it ever being normal again.

Why don’t Norway and Sweden offer to sell him one ? He would understand that transactional approach. $2 billion should do it (plus a tariff, of course). It would have to be a gold plated one - with a certificate signed by himself with his childish mannered signature.

Don’t think we need lessons from that little nobody. We really do need to tell them as it is - they are bullies and need to be told where to go.
