Yep which is exactly what I asked in my question. If they’ve been acting the same the whole time then they are now being treated unfairly and used as a political pawn. If the violence has stepped up on a specific instruction from the government then the criticism of Trump is valid. The statistics I have seen suggest the former.
But I honestly don’t know the answer though. |

Being in my early forties and relatively good for my age I’m definitely on the cusp of conscription age. In the event of an invasion/occupation I’d happily fight to protect these islands and the people and history on them but I would absolutely refuse to go and get slaughtered off in some far off land. F that. |

Especially in Starmer’s human rights field. You don’t have to persuade a jury you only have to persuade a judge. You have weeks if not months to prepare your statements. You don’t have to think on your feet. It’s a completely different skill set and Starmer simply doesn’t have it. |

Seeing as ICE have been around for a quarter of a century the pertinent question would be have they always been operating in the same way as we are seeing now or are they just getting more negative attention from the anti-Trump media? There is of course the issue of the increased resistance they are facing due to this media storm which will inevitably create a level of confrontation and tension they may not have had before.
There are stats online that suggest that there have been years where arrests have been a lot higher than they are now and also deaths involving ICE and custody have been higher.
If Trump is a fascist and a Nazi for deploying ICE in the same way as previous presidents then by definition Bush, Obama and Biden must be Nazi fascists too. |

Cullen and Cabango were probably the last two to make it to the first team and they are both in their mid twenties now. We haven’t given youth a look in for a good five or six years. Need to be giving these boys a pathway or they’ll go elsewhere. |

It’s the complete blind devotion and subservience to these various pieces of international “law” that’s largely got us into the mess we are in in the first place.
The rules based international order has failed. It’s the countries who haven’t signed up for it or are willingly ignoring it that are winning. |

I thought he looked like he was about to burst into tears.
But yes you’re right he has mastered the art of speaking for twenty minutes without actually saying anything. |

Aguero was very good at it. If you’re onside the defenders can watch both you and the ball at the same time. |

Strikers have been doing that for years, standing in an offside position makes it more difficult for defenders to keep an eye on where you are. |

Trump seems to really enjoy humiliating Starmer. It was clear from the moment Labour sent hundreds of activists to campaign for Kamala Harris that it wouldn’t be forgotten or forgiven. The Chagos surrender is clearly one of the worst deals in the history of our nation and Starmer and everyone else involved needs to be called out on it as often as possible.
As for Greenland I don’t think even Trump is thick enough to take it by force. Purchasing it would be acceptable it could make the Greenlanders and Denmark very rich, I would ask how much he’s willing to pay then multiply it by 10. That’s the price. Pay up or you’re not having it. |

Reply | The Truth Comes Out on Maccabi Fans Ban
at 18:35 14 Jan 2026
Horrifying that one of the countries biggest police forces in charge of the second city and a huge population are relying on AI for ‘intelligence’. Apparently it told them that Maccabi fans had smashed up London whilst playing West Ham but that match never took place, they were playing in Ukraine at the time. That was part of the basis to banning the Israeli fans. That and rampant anti semitism. |

I was surprised to learn that ICE has been around since 2002. The way the media portrays it is as a pure Trump thing. |

Some of these SUV’s can hit 60mph in 3 seconds. They are four wheel drive and incredibly large, heavy and powerful machines. The fact she turned her wheels away is irrelevant. To accelerate like that is remarkably reckless and dangerous. You must understand this right? You accelerate like that on your driving test even with nobody around and you immediately fail. Why do you think this is? |

at 16:02 12 Jan 2026
It’s the equivalent of banning Polaroid cameras instead of arresting the cameraman taking the indecent photos.
I hate Twitter with a passion. It’s a cesspit on there. But you should deal with the tiny percentage of individuals breaking the law rather than tear the whole thing up.
Starmers ongoing feud with Musk and his desire to silence criticism of his relentless failure to govern competently is behind this 100%. |

Not to mention their kidnapping of a claimed 700,000 children to move to Russia and brought up to love Russia and hate Ukraine. Thats probably their worst war crime of all. |

It is damning on the officer. Shooting someone in the head is very rarely acceptable. It’s a lack of composure or training or more likely just a human being in a state of panic. But there is also the mitigating factor of a large powerful vehicle being driven aggressively in his direction narrowly missing him. I’m not sure about US law but over here regardless of intent and the fact she missed him that would certainly seen as dangerous driving to endanger life, possibly even attempted murder. That’s why this isn’t as simple as “he’s evil, she’s completely innocent”. You’re entrenched in the politics and you have a track record of trying to score cheap political points, so I don’t think you’re capable of being objective about this.
The time between her slamming her foot on the gas and the bullet being fired is probably under a second. In a situation like that people don’t stop to weigh up their options. They react with instinct.
He shouldn’t have pulled the trigger and will probably face charges but I completely understand why he did what he did in the heat of the moment. Again with the US it all comes down to guns. |
