Yeah, but those pesky Muslims, eh? https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/why-maccabi-tel-aviv-fans-record-violent-rampages-really-banned

Sounds like he is TACO man again this evening. He seems to be backing away from supplying the Tomahawks. Putin seems to be able to do the Jedi mind trick on Trump time and time again.

What on earth is a “Starmer stronghold?” He gets plenty of criticism on here and everywhere else, especially in the right wing media. But if you can’t see the difference between Starmer and any other normal politician (and human being for that matter) and Donald J Trump then I pity you. That includes your alter ego, nutty nic. P.S. Has he now ended 9 wars yet? I have lost count.

I have told you before about engaging your brain when you try and have a pop at someone. If you had you would see that I responded directly to nutty nic’s post where he said, “if war breaks out again” which is why I responded with “if.” I have also never referred to this conflict as being “black and white” either. In fact I got a lot of flak from the usual suspects (which probably included you) when I said, just after the attack on 7th October, that there were no men in white hats and men in black hats in this conflict. Apart from that, Trigger, you were spot on! 🤪

Poor old hypo, you have to wonder if there is a minority group left that he isn’t phobic about.

If the killing resumes it will down to Netanyahu and or Hamas. There will always be plenty of other things to berate Trump about, not that those proudly wearing their red hats will see it. You being one of them.

King’s army??? https://humanists.uk/2025/10/09/homophobic-christian-nationalist-mob-targets-londons-gay-district/ Meanwhile born again Christian, Yaxley-Lennon (apparently he was ‘led to Christ’ whilst in prison), is off the meet with his new found friends to fight the scourge of Islam. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/oct/05/uk-jewish-groups-condemn-israeli-minister-invite-tommy-robinson-israel

This sums up the current situation perfectly - from the former Israeli PM. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/voices-sorry-donald-trump-but-that-s-not-what-i-call-a-peace-deal/ar-AA1Oqz1y?cvid=68ef49b633e5476c84ff7ce8028e334b&ocid=hpmsn

Did you actually listen to all of the speeches? Did you know that the whole thing ran 3 to 4 hours over its allotted time? The only desperate thing about it is Trump’s desperate need to be given the Nobel Peace Prize and his desperate need to slag off Biden and Obama at every possible opportunity. Yes, he did it during his speech again yesterday. He also talked about how effective the US munitions were that he sold to Israel in killing people. No grace. No class. The man is not only an embarrassment to the USA, he is an embarrassment to mankind.

Well that was weird. Even in Trump’s many bizarre speeches the one yesterday was probably the most batshit deranged. In fact the whole thing was bizarre, even the speeches blowing smoke up his and Netanyahu’s arses before he got to do his act. He went way beyond parody in his first term, now we have the parody of parody. When he talks of the future you can see the £ signs in his eyes. Funny? He is as funny as cancer. When interviewed after his show he wasn’t interested in commenting about the future of Palestine, just the rebuilding of Gaza. Dollars, dollars, dollars. The IDF have shot 6 Palestinians this morning. Well the ceasefire went well.

Great news about the release of the remaining hostages. At some point the question needs to be asked why it took so long. Perhaps, if Netanyahu had put the same effort into securing their release as he did into killing Palestinians and destroying Gaza, they would have been home a lot sooner. Still, today is a day of celebration and hope that the ceasefire can be turned into an actual peace settlement that works for all.

Blessed are the peacemakers. I’m not sure how that title relates to the insurrectionist, Donald J. Trump. He is currently deploying armed thugs on the streets of his own cities against the wishes of their Governors. He continues to state that he wants to annex two countries; Canada and Greenland. He has a rap sheet as long as your arm and there is growing evidence that he might be a paedophile. Anyway…so far apparently so good. We can only hope that this particular deal of his actually works out. Given that neither Netanyahu and his government and the Hamas leadership have shown absolutely zero interest in peace so far, I am not holding my breath. As for the Nova music festival as per the earlier post, yes, it was a very unhappy coincidence. Hamas came out earlier and said that it wasn’t an original target but that they came across it by accident. It wasn’t supposed to held there but the venue was moved late in the day. This was part of the original conspiracy, that Netanyahu knew what was going to happen - hence the previous financial funding of Hamas, the ignoring of the intelligence that an attack was imminent and the slow response once the attacks were reported. It could well be bs, but given Netanyahu’s belief that Palestine should not be granted its wish to become a state, the attack on 7th October gave him a golden opportunity to flatten Gaza, crush the Palestinians and open the door to further incursions into the West Bank. If anyone thinks that Netanyahu, Ben-Gvir and the cabinet are going to agree to Palestinians having their own state, you are going to be very disappointed.

You really are a sad individual aren’t you? Most normal people accept that immigration is a good thing. Most normal do not have a problem with people of a different ethnicity. These views have nothing to do with where people live. I don’t know where you got your figure from but it is wrong. There is a very large Nepalese population in Ashford and if you were ever to visit the town (please don’t) you would see plenty of brown and black faces along with white Eastern Europeans. Where I live has absolutely nothing to do with Jenrick’s hypocrisy and blatant racism, but well done with your attempt at deflection along with your sad need to denigrate your stalker victims. I notice that you recently did it on another thread, dragging Verbal’s wife into a thread just to have a dig at him. You are not funny and you are not clever. Your feeble attempts to score points are clearly driven by your deep seated bigotry. I know that you have taken a deeply troubling interest in me so you will know that I spent the first ten years of my life growing up 1 mile away from Brixton. You will know that Brixton had a very large black population even back in the 50’s. You will know that I spent most of my life working in London, one of the most diverse cities on the planet. Robert Jenrick has just made himself look incredibly stupid, yet you chose to take time out of your day to try and turn that into an attack on someone who has never made an issue about who lives where dependant on their ethnicity. You really need to sort yourself out mate.

As you say you know much about the history of the conflict I guess you know that there haven’t been elections in Gaza since 2006?

Robert Jenrick. https://uk.news.yahoo.com/robert-jenrick-integration-problem-racist-111800050.html Two things that are particularly funny about his comments. The first is after having said that he didn’t see any white faces, the first five people that he interviewed for his documentary were all white. He also lives in a village with a population of 166 people…only one of whom is from a different ethnicity. Surely Robert you should also be complaining about the lack of diversity in your village?

True, I was just trying to make a distinction. When I worked for the CPS it wasn’t uncommon to refer to female police officers as WPCs as shorthand. It is no big deal though is it? She is a woman and she is a police officer. Update: one of her mates was arrested/suspended as part of the fallout from the documentary. Don’t know what the charge against him is yet. His first name is Lawrence, don’t know his surname, but if you think I am bullshitting Duckie his name will be released when they are legally allowed to do so. Oh, and I notice from you last post that you are still stuck in a 70’s time warp.

There were three waves of attack apparently. The first two were carried out by the “official” Hamas military and the third later on by a large group of opportunists who weren’t a part of the attack plan. Still no accountability for the massive intelligence failure on the part of the Israelis nor any figure put on the number of “friendly fire” victims caused by the IDF themselves. No surprise there. As long as Netanyahu can keep the war going he can use that as an excuse to keep proper accountability at bay. Even if Hamas do agree to the current peace deal, Netanyahu will find a reason to scupper it, either now or later. The IDF claim that they take great care in identifying their targets. They clearly do not and the buck needs to stop at the man at the top. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-09-07/israel-hannibal-directive-kidnap-hamas-gaza-hostages-idf/104224430 In an ideal world, today would see the peace deal implemented and an end to the hostilities by both sides. The moment that happens, Netanyahu and his government will come under greater scrutiny. He doesn’t want that. This is why. https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/asa-winstanley/israel-admits-immense-amount-friendly-fire-7-october

You clearly hate all Muslims. There are plenty of your posts which prove that, and well before the events of 7th October. Whether you are a racist or not is open to interpretation but you have plenty of previous in running to the defence of the likes of Tommy Robinson and Katie Hopkins. I don’t recall you calling out Farage for being the odious, lying scumbag he is. You used to use an avatar that was an alt-right icon and I don’t think that you were using it ironically. You constantly support posts that have what could be called a far right bias. You like to pretend that you are even handed and respect other opinions but your posts indicate where you are really coming from and have done for years. You just don’t have the guts to come out and say what you really mean. I am glad that others are calling you out now, but I saw through your facade years ago. No doubt you will profess your innocence, but you only have to look at the type of other posters who support you and who you support and it couldn’t be clearer where you are coming from.

Strange thread recently. To state the obvious, the idea that security forces can keep on top of every terrorist thread is patently impossible. As the saying goes, a terrorist only has to get lucky once. The security forces have to get lucky every single day of the week. There are countless operations being carried out all of the time, many with positive results, but it is physically and technically impossible to stop every attack. There isn’t a single security force on the planet that has been able to prevent every single attack and, due to the nature of these attacks, there never will be. I am sure we all understand that, apart from one poster who seems to think that all Muslims are a potential threat therefore we should provide the resources to monitor them all, all of the time. And yes hypo, I am being flippant (and I am referring to you).

I would have bet my mortgage on you replying immediately. You really are a pathetic, sad little man. I have mentioned her before in a thread that you replied to. It was in relation to her height (she is quite small) and her being in the Met. That was some effort on my part to make up a story and lay the foundations months ago eh? As of February 2025 there were 33,201 serving members in the Metropolitan Police Force. There are currently 13,930 members on this site with many more contributing non members. Even with the most rudimentary understanding of mathematics surely even you must realise that the odds on someone here knowing or knowing of someone serving in the police force must be quite high? Incidentally, her eldest son is a butcher and her youngest son has recently become a serving officer in the Kent police force. If I get the inside track on any butcher related stories or Kent police rated stories please refer back to this post before you accuse me of being a purveyor of “pony.”

Mrs SOG’s bestie was here last night. Her daughter is a WPC in the Met working out of Charing Cross nick so I was hoping for a bit of inside info. All she said was that there had been lots of rumours circulating about something big happening and some colleagues didn’t turn up for shifts which created more rumours. I asked about her reaction to the documentary and she said her daughter had not seen that kind of behaviour on her shifts. It was often a bit “edgy” as you would expect but nothing as clear cut as what we saw. She and a few colleagues went out for a drink with the undercover reporter but fortunately for them they behaved themselves. She said the reporter was egging them on and trying to encourage them to be a bit outrageous. From what we saw some of them in the documentary didn’t seem to need much help. Her former skipper was one of those arrested. I guess we shall hear a bit more when the dust settles.

I think that is an issue for every PM to a lesser or greater extent. There will always be factions within parties who are not happen with certain policies or direction of travel. The Labour Party are probably more likely to have internal divisions due to its history and the advent of New Labour. Starmer’s main issue for me is that he is a pragmatist rather than an idealist. Corbyn is an idealist and appeals to those with deep rooted socialist principles. Starmer is a socialist but wants to solve problems without being hamstrung by ideology. Hence what are seen of a number of unborn like decisions in his first year. He inherited a poisoned chalice isfter 14 years of austerity, misrule and corruption. He was never going to address the main issues and remain popular in the first phase of his administration. No one could. But as with football managers, if you don’t set the world alight after 6 matches people want you out. Every government bring in their unpopular policies at the start knowing that they are safe for a few years and then bring in the sweeteners as another election approaches. Starmer’s problem is that, by his own admission, it will take two terms to address the problems we face. He won’t be given the time because too many people want everything better now. Farage, despite not having a clue how to govern, is selling quick fixes that he doesn’t have. There have been some high profile mistakes in his first year, but also a number of good things which get buried as the media is bent on doing all it can to diss him, especially the Mail which has plumbed new depths of mostly unsubstantiated bile. He has a big task in his second year to fight the rise of populism, racial hatred and to get over the more positive messages. He looks the part on the international stage and has managed to make us look like we belong on the world stage again after a succession of clowns (just imagine Farage representing the UK in similar circumstances). He needs to bring that to his domestic performance. He has been fortunate that Badenoch is such a poor leader of the opposition as she and her party sink lower and lower into obscurity. The LibDems are still suffering from Clegg’s momentous error to get behind Cameron and look unlikely to pose a real threat to Labour. Hopefully Farage will be a busted flush soon. It is all Labour’s to lose and they and Starmer clearly need to up their game. His problem is that he needs to persuade more of his party that the emphasis should be more on fixing and less on ideology.

No it isn't a made up word and if you know “plenty about the history of the conflict” as you say, why not display some of that knowledge, pal? Look up Christophobia and Hinduphobia too. At the moment you just sound like an apologist for Netanyahu and genocide. You have an issue about Islam and it being “medieval.” Where do you stand on the practice of male genital mutilation (or circumcision as it is widely known)? Would you class that practice as “medieval” too or are you only interested in dissing one religion? There is plenty to criticise in other religions if you can be bothered to look. You and people like you are why we are where we are today. You stoke and thrive on division and hatred. Whether you target Muslims, Jews, Christians, Sikhs, people with brown or black skin, gays, trans people etc., it all comes from the same place. You are proud of being a bigot. Little wonder you follow Farage and his ilk. 3 people died in the incident in Manchester yesterday. 53 people were killed in Gaza yesterday. 56 lives lost, and for what?

Don’t listen to conspiracy theorists, especially anti-vaxers! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c77dmp3jjepo.amp Not only do you find the death of tens of thousands of innocent people funny nic, you also find it funny that a young girl has died when it is entirely possible that she could have lived. But then as a conspiracy theorist and anti-vaxer yourself I expect that you would side with her mother.

If you know anything at all about the history of this conflict you will know that both sides have been killing each other for longer than decades. Given your support for Farage I am not surprised by your comments though. It’s a bit early for point scoring though isn’t it? Perhaps show a bit of respect for those who have died and have been injured and leave it a while before you start with the Islamophobia eh? We can then also talk about the tens of thousands of people from that “medieval religion” who have also lost their lives recently. PS. The Jewish, Islamic and Christian religions all pre date medieval times.
