    Balance. The last couple of pages have many assertions that "plenty on the left" hold anti-Semitic views, implying it is a problem for that side of the political spectrum. The reality is that both sides have a problem with some parts holding such opinions, and villifying one without the other is taking a partisan stance.

    Do any on the right ?

    But what this enquiry is showing is that they weren't following the science. Boris was dithering, Hancock was clueless, and overall the Cabinet were rudderless and unable to take decisions or control.

    Letting the over 65s die - an excellent strategy for a large part of your electoral support.

    Dom Cummins to Lee Cain on WhatsApp, about BoJo; "Get in here, he's melting down. I've literally said the same thing 10 fucking times and he still won't absorb it. I'm exhausted just talking to him and stopping the trolley. I have had to sit here for 2 hours just to stop him saying stupid shit". Lee Cain replies "I'm exhausted with him" Then Dom posts "It's only a matter of time before his babbling exposes the fact he doesn't know what to say".

    Whilst goods can enter from Egypt, telecommunications, power and water are mostly controlled by Israel. Also, regarding the possibility of people leaving Gaza via that route, Egypt are reluctant to permit that as they fear it will escalate the problems they already have with rebels in northern Sinai.

    You do understand what powers the Speaker has ? Also ihis election is an indication of the direction of travel for the GOP - Mike Johnson was one of the prime movers in the Trump election denial, and then there is the irony of his getting elected instead of Jim Jordan, who was seen as too extreme.

    Yes, but generally with one sect targeting another. One issue with Islam is that a lot of it's teaching is left open to interpretation rather than having a figurehead to guide the congregation, such as the Pope or Archbishop of Canterbury. Thankfully, Christianity has largely grown out of it's fanatical fundamentalist phase, but it does have quite a history.

    Same-sex marriage and any form of access to abortion are near the top of his agenda, for starters. He also believes that the Bible should be a much more formal basis for Government, rejecting the separation of Church and State.

    Opposing rights for gays or women - are we talking about the newly elected Speaker of the House of Representatives, who wants to more closely align the direction of US politics to Old Testament Biblical teachings ?

    It makes a questionable interpretation of a peaceful religion violent.

    And Israel to remove the West Bank settlers, military checkpoints, and the security barrier, leaving the Palestinians there in control of their own destinies ?
  15. My wife cooked non-chicken chicken a few weeks ago, just to try it out. I thought it was pretty poor, and to me more like the fish in fish fingers.

    No idea, but the quote said "the whole family is gone ".

    The BBC quoting the AFP press agency at 9:26 this morning; "A video circulating on social media shows a car doing a three-point turn after approaching a tank, only for it to open fire and destroy the vehicle. "He’s gone, the whole family is gone," shouts one of those at the scene, as he speeds away and yells at other vehicles to turn around" Note; it is now reported that the road is open again.

    Yes, and they shelled the roads to the south, and also the refugee camps in the south. They know full well that not every non-combatant in the northern part of the Strip was able, let alone willing, to evacuate.

    6 months to 5 years. This thread will be approaching the Pompey Takeover Saga in size.
  22. The things you can get away with when talking to children. Yesterday we had our son's 2 kids dropped off whilst he went to Bloomfield Road with some work colleagues. When he was late getting back we told his 3 year old daughter he was stuck on the motorway. ( Which would be a very roundabout route to take ). Eventually he got to ours about 2 hours late and she asked him if he had got stuck on the motorway. "Yes" he replied, "I got stuck at the Royal Oak services, then Ma Kelly's services, then The Railway services".
  23. People at the gym doing weights in front of a mirror when you know full well they are not watching their technique, just admiring their reflection.
  24. The difference between Gen Z and Boomers; Taylor Swift writes whiney songs about her break-up, Stevie Nicks made Lyndsey Buckingham sing the lyrics she penned about how big a bastard he was.
  25. We have 3 dogs. The "treat" is that we will give those that knock on our door a head start to get back out of the gate, the "trick" being I might be lying about the head start. ( The dogs just want to play, but with one being a Deerhound and another is a Newfoundland, their size and bark are the things you notice ).
