So they weren't all bent on murder. It doesn't disguise that somebody tasered him, and somebody tried to get his gun.

I read a Trump apologist has claimed that the crowd he addressed couldn't have been involved in the invasion of the Capitol as there wasn't enough time for them to have walked from the site of his rant across to the Capitol. It is a few yards over a mile to be walked, and there were 50 minutes between Trump leaving his podium and the first Police barrier being crossed.

The similarities with Maidstone keep getting uncovered; https://edition.cnn.com/2021/01/14/politics/police-officers-capitol-riot-hodges-fanone/index.html Then, Fanone, who had just been Tasered several times in the back of the neck, heard something chilling that made him go into survival mode. "Some guys started getting a hold of my gun and they were screaming out, 'Kill him with his own gun,'"

Cavalry the gallop at full speed when going anywhere, and can maintain it for hours at a time.

"At a news conference, Hasenhuttl said the 28-year-old England international had been self-isolating and could return to training on Friday. However, Ings is not expected to play against Leicester City on Saturday." https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55666396

An Irish painter was asked by a householder to "Paint the porch". When he had finished, he went indoors and said to the householder "It wasn't a porch, it was a Mercedes".

Fixed for you.

I like the comment below the video about JRM being "surrounded by all his freinds".

This.

No, but they'll be eating shit.

I knew some smart arse would come up with that response 😉

GM claims to have gone to KES, he blames the school for making him a moron.

"Washington is expected to stop short of alleging that Covid-19 first originated in the biological laboratory, however". In other words, Donnie is yet again spreading half truths and making implications expecting his dim witted acolytes and supporters to come to the "correct" conclusion.

A broken watch is right twice a day.

"Following the events that unfolded after the presidential elections, it is meaningless to refer to America as the example of democracy," said Vyacheslav Volodin, the speaker of the lower house of the Russian Parliament and a supporter of President Vladimir Putin.

Pot meet kettle.

Nobody mentioned British car manufacturers banging on Boris's door - it was all about the Germans haranguing Merkel.

Truss is doing such a good job, ( https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/55633632 ) While the UK government managed to roll over most of the third-country trade deals it had as part of the EU, that did not include Ghana's. Labour MP Gareth Thomas told the Commons on Monday: "The government's dismal treatment of Ghana - a key Commonwealth ally - is particularly surprising," criticising the UK negotiators for turning up to talks late and poorly briefed, meaning no deal had been done. He added the upshot of the failure to do a deal was cocoa, tuna and bananas arriving in the UK faced heavy tariffs (or import taxes), with that already having happened to two shipments. Last week, the first of those shipments was mentioned in the House of Lords, after it emerged a tariff of £17,500 had been charged at Portsmouth on bananas from Ghana.

You are obviously ignorant, ( duh ! ), of the UK Government advice; "Drivers travelling to the EU should be aware of additional restrictions to personal imports. You cannot bring POAO (products of an animal origin) such as those containing meat or dairy (eg a ham-and-cheese sandwich) into the EU."

Local political leader, normally the Mayor, ignoring the 'expert' because there is a local holiday or pageant coming up, and thereby missing the chance to avert disaster.

Not at all - I said 'Some on here', wasn't including myself. It shouldn't be difficult to find out who does fall into that grouping.

Some on here, and elsewhere, see this as a good thing; solves the Irish Question once and for all, eliminates the Barnett Formula that makes England a nett contributor to the Scottish budget, and leaves the rump as a perceived Tory fiefdom in perpetuity.

Praising oneself reveals one's arrogance or selfishness, which in turn lowers other's opinion of one. https://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/Self-praise+is+no+recommendation

This is the Scottish regulation; ......local outdoor recreation, sport or exercise, walking, cycling, golf, or running that starts and finishes at the same place (which can be up to 5 miles from the boundary of your local authority area) as long as you abide by the rules on meeting other households.
