Why would it not? Starmer cancels elections but that is ok?

 

Starmer has not cancelled any elections, the Councils affected by planned LG reorganisation have asked to do so because of that work - Councils of all political hues.

Do you understand the difference between ‘cancelled” and “postponed?”

You seem to ignore what is happening. There is a huge change coming in the organisation of local councils. They have been asked if they need more time to prepare for these changes. Some have said yes, some no and some I believe have yet to decide.

Do you think it is the best use of tax payers money to hold an election this Spring, at great expense when local councils are short of cash, when that council will not exist next year or will have to hold another poll due to various changes?

Perhaps you do, with your space cadet thinking out of the box mentality.

Yet again, the poster with the self proclaimed biggest intellect on the forum, manages to add 2 + 2 and come up with the answer = fish.

Clueless as standard

Perhaps he needs to get his information from MSN after all?

He also doesn’t seem to understand the direct difference in the effect on the two different governments between the mid terms in the US and local council elections here.  No surprise though as he believes that Marxists and Fascists are the same.

At a hearing of the House Judiciary Committee this week, the Republicans invited several leaders of the Oath Keepers to sit in the audience, including some who have not received pardons so still have convictions for sedition.

One of their leadership was present as a witness, answering questions from the committee members. When pressed by Democrat member Jared Moskowitz he explained why the riot happened;
Most of the people in the crowd were active or retired military personnel and law enforcement officers, who were marching peacefully but then the Capitol Police started using tear gas. This automatically triggered the training of these peaceful marchers who switched into self-defence mode and fought back against those that had attacked them.

Who the Oath Keepers are for those not aware. Lunatics with PTSD in essence, very violent and some crossovers with the KKK

According to my in depth research the US currently has 67,515 military personal deployed amongst some 40 bases from the NW of Greenland to Turkey’s border with Russia. These bases are situated in Germany, Italy, UK, Spain, Turkey, Belgium, Netherlands, Greece, Poland, Portugal, Romania. They have many strategic air bases spread across Europe. The largest US base in the UK, RAF Lakenheath, hosts the US’s 48th fighter wing.

I am surprise that his group of advisors haven’t  warned Trump that he shouldn’t piss of his European allies as they rely on their bases abroad strategically. Perhaps they did and he ignored them? Perhaps they are as dumb as him?

I expect that our friends in Europe will despatch the Trump Whisperer, Keir Starmer, to remind him that threatening the very allies that he relies upon for his position of strength outside of his own borders is not a good idea. To state the obvious, it isn’t wise for the POTUS to reduce the defence of his country to the Pacific and Atlantic coasts and its land borders. 
We have cards too Donald.

From what I can find out the US doesn't pay any rent for any bases.

What do you think would happen if countries told him his troops and gear weren't welcome? If they refuse to go, there isn't a bailiff to send in.

There are numerous actions that Europe could take if Trump continues to act like a spoilt child who wants more candy. Deny the US airspace. Add their own tariffs. If they refuse to leave the bases, how long will they continue to operate with no assistance and support from the countries they are in and no airspace? 
Trump only understands threats. He thinks Europe is weak. Play him at his own game instead of kissing his flabby orange arse and we might make some decent progress. Macron has clearly had enough. More need to follow his lead.

Maybe the Norwegians should send a response stating that as Leif Ericsson landed in Vinland 500 years before Columbus failed to reach continental North America, can we have our land back please.

There's theory, then there's what happens. People have been hiding behind the theory of NATO togetherness, and look how that's going.

Indeed.

Keir Starmer has just given a very statesmanlike, grown up response from Downing Street. How this translates to negotiations with Batshit crazy Trump goodness only knows.

Trump has now apparently offered Putin a place on Gaza’s Board of Peace.

🤪

According to the Washington Post, anybody wanting a permanent place on the Board of Peace for Gaza will be asked to stump up $1Bn.

According to one former State Department diplomat, specialising in the Middle East; "The Board of Peace is a concept tethered to a galaxy far, far away, "

In any functional government: 

i) an adviser would prevent such laughable drivel from seeing the light of day 

ii) he would be removed on health grounds

The Norway tantrum letter has been confirmed by CBS https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cx2k7gv0znmt

7 year olds have better emotion control and grammar, at least in European countries. Not sure about America anymore.

Given how long Biden was allowed to stay on by his pathetic party, I have little hope that there will be a bulletin soon that he’s had a severe stroke and cannot continue in office (whether true or not) with an even weaker GOP. 

People knock our political system but when Truss was bezerk she was dispatched very quickly to apply some limits to the damage. He won’t do his full-term but it’ll take massive civil unrest verging on civil war in year 3 or 4 to finally unseat him/pop him off if he isn’t deceased before that.

There doesn’t seem to be any certainty about where the money will end up. Cheques made payable to Donald J Trump perhaps?

Perhaps someone needs to point out to Trump that the US agreed that Greenland was owned by Denmark in 1916.

https://www.diis.dk/en/research/why-is-greenland-part-of-the-kingdom-of-denmark-a-short-history

That assumes that him and anyone in his entourage (including the revolting Millers) can actually read. Judging by his 7 year old grammar in the Norway tantrum latter, I’m going to call it that they are thick as shit and illiterate to boot.

Trump, in his own words, has a high IQ, snd is in fact "a stable genius". Who can doubt him ?

From Russian media outlet Rossiyskaya Gazeta ;

"If Trump annexes Greenland by July 4 2026, when America celebrates the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, he will go down in history as a figure who asserted the greatness of the United States," 

"With Greenland, the US becomes the second largest country in the world after Russia, surpassing Canada in area. For Americans, that's on par with such planetary events as the abolition of slavery by Abraham Lincoln in 1862 or the territorial conquests of the Napoleonic Wars."

"If, thanks to Trump, Greenland becomes part of America…for sure the American people will not forget such an achievement."

That all but confirms that Russia don't have their eyes on Greenland.

All about dual aims of challenging China and diminishing Europe.

Why the Brexiteers ever thought it was a good idea to pivot towards America, or frankly even the likes of Modi is beyond rational logic. Special relationship my arse.

They're too over-stretched in Ukraine to take on the "2 dogsleds" defending Greenland.

Of course the Russians will be delighted if the US take Greenland. Anything that weakens the NATO alliance and the EU is a plus for them.  Brexit was a start, this is the cherry on the cake if it happens.

It underscores what all knew - America cannot be trusted over Ukraine.
