Pro peace and anti- NATO is an odd combined description given NATO is what’s stopped Russia from invading the countries that joined it. If Ukraine was a member of NATO, there wouldn’t be war there right now.

Because being a creep and being socially conservative has a very high correlation?

Well to be fair they are destroying themselves. Europe was their Achilles heel & they couldn’t reconcile that within themselves so we got Brexit which destroyed their economic credentials & forced out sane members of their tribe. It’s that little England brand of nationalism that’s destroying them.

I’m not offended by you thinking someone who is against cutting body parts when it’s not medically necessary weird, so no need to apologise.

In fairness, at least he’s focussing some of his deranged energy into fighting mutilation and not things that actually help people like Tylenol and vaccines.

He’s worried there might be a government that he can’t bribe or been to his will because of his economic power and wealth.

The Telegraph realising its views are at odds with most of the rest of the public.

Quite. For young people who are first time buyers, there is no stamp duty on anything up to Β£300k anyways.

Was the whole point not that the British state couldn’t be trusted to protect those rights? Hence it had to be an international court i.e. some appeal to a body outside of British law that had previously trampled on those rights.

I mean Hitler and Trump are/were at various times very honest but I wouldn’t ever say I have respect for them.

Surely it’s neither? They’re not attacking us and want friendly relations, but they are heavily spying on us and have interests in areas that are diametrically opposed to ours.

Oh good. Means the Trump turnaround backing Ukraine more is probably quite real.

"Europeans, let's wake up!" β€” Defend Democracy β€œWe have been incredibly naive in entrusting our democratic space to social networks.” President Macron on the occasion of German Unity Day, 3 October 2025.

1/Striking speech by Macron: The future of European democracy depends on taking back its digital information space. A remarkable turn from Silicon Valley as source of enlightenment to being a purveyor of slop. And the stakes aren't just ad revenue but the nation.

Weird that countries next to one that invades its neighbours and continues to pour billions and 10s of thousands of lives in an imperialistic adventure would want to maybe stop it from doing it to them…

I remember it was only a few years ago that Leo Varadkar was criticised by many for having a Moncler jacket that was well within his means as a senior government official.

To be honest, it looks fairly American. Any minority group throughout American history could tell you that sadly.

What do you mean the business model that relies on asset speculation than producing goods or services with intrinsic value is starting to crumble?

That was a quick turnaround from seeking vengeance on the people who did this. Almost like she found out he was a conservative.
