    It seems likely, if not entirely predictable, that the perpetrator was originally from an Islamic nation before being granted French citizenship. What a lovely way to repay those that took you in…

    That is a totally reasonable argument CL.

    I really have no dog in this fight. I’m well aware of TR’s record both historically and criminally. I don’t justify him or apologise for him. I simply seek to understand the various points of view and…

    Here is TR from 8 years ago giving his address to the Oxford Union. It’s not been taken down by YouTube because I assume it was not published by TR himself. If there are people in this thread struggling to find any output from TR directly then this is…

    Not at all CL and Fred. It’s just interesting to know if those that vilify him are doing so from a position of first hand experience having watched his journalistic content and then, having used their critical thinking skills, decided he is wrong,…

    He already has journalist accreditation. It doesn’t help him because of what he wants to report.

    You are not the target audience of the BBC. They are now in the phase of their decline where they are obviously gaslighting as many people as they can to desperately attempt to maintain a dying narrative of western liberal values that many of us, if…

    Which is what happens if over the threshold , that is why I think when you can and do take your pension or pensions they should be tax free

    Of course she will be proved right. It is so obvious. I think Rishi opposed her so that he could get into office. He was VERY miffed when she got the job, so he had a word with his chums in the city. The rest is history.

    Could be akin to the "Israel bombed the hospital" claim. When in fact it was Hamas who blew up their hospital.

    No, you are not wrong. Except there were/are hundreds of acclaimed scientists and doctors, who vehemently opposed the government and the scientists working with the government. They all were shut down.

    Will the WHO dare to declare another pandemic and will the public reject any attempt to lockdown a second time?

    These claims are being paid directly by UK Gov because the drugs companies were given immunity from prosecution for any side effects. Therefore it can be deduced that the government acknowledges that the vaccine did cause very serious harms indeed in…

    That's very sad and there are many people who have experienced the same, not everyone but there are large numbers and that includes where nobody knows anyone that died but have had major fall outs with close friends over disagreements about the whole…

    Haha you know how difficult it is to prove a negative CL. Looking for links to demonstrate a media conspiracy not to report on a subject is virtually impossible… because they are not reporting it. You know that.

    If you had shedloads of money, you wouldn't deliberately allow it to haemorrage value by staying in a high tax country, would you? It's human nature, and - er - common sense.

    Your second sentence there Norra may be your Utopian theory, but I'm sure…
