I think some perspective is called for. The truth appears to be that this incident was triggered when Social Services attempted to remove children from a home they lived in with their parents. The parents became aggressive and so the Social Services team called the police for help. Why that caused the riot and arson we can only speculate. But a full investigation is under way. What is disgraceful is MPs coming out with inflammatory comments when it is clear they are unaware of the detail. That would be you Farage. For the record I am led to believe the family in question were not of Asian or Afro Caribbean origin nor were they Muslim (as far as I know). So, like Farage, the hate mongers on here need to get their facts straight. But then truth and facts are an anathema to you, are they not? So blinded are you by such hatred. Yep, I'm pretty sure it was just a peaceful street protest, until someone burst onto the scene and holding their phone aloft declared, "has everyone seen the inflammatory comments made by Farage?!?!" At this point phones were produced, and the shocked peaceful protesters, upon reading these inflammatory comments, immediately began to chunter ! "Let's set fire to a bus", shouted one of the peaceful protestors. "How on earth can we sit idly by and let these disgusting inflammatory comments go unanswered?". Another shouted, "bring out your young kids and let them witness how we rise up against the oppressors and their inflammatory comments!" Oh yes Oldie, I can just see how it all unfolded.

No, I do not think she is heavily involved in "Presidential decisions". The Clinton's want her, but the Obama's do not. Both factions are hugely instrumental in the Democratic Party. I think there is a bit of an internal power struggle going on here within the Party. The argument they are currently having is whether to hold an "Open" nomination Congress, where anyone can put themselves forward, or a "Closed" nomination Congress where only the annointed (Harris) can run. The Clinton's want a closed one, the Obama's want an open one. Then there is the question of finances. Any money raised/donated by the Biden/Harris ticket can only be used by one of those two people. This is Federal Law. If it is not, then it has to be returned to those who donated. Here we are talking about hundreds of millions of dollars. If they choose someone other than Harris, then the money has to be returned, and new money raised by the new candidate. This will be pretty difficult to achieve in a matter of weeks. Then there are the optics. How would it look if the box ticking Democrats replaced a black woman with a white man? So, they are limited to replacing Harris with either another woman who is white, or a black woman. The only person who fits the bill is Michelle Obama, but apparently she hated every second of her time in the White House and has vowed never to return. However, this is politics. Is this why the Obama's want an Open Congress, so Michelle could step forward? Maybe she has been told that if she win's the election she wouldn't have to do much as the people in the background will run things as they have been doing for Biden? I keep nhearing Michelle Obama but she hasnt got any experience and would just be a puppet President with her husband pulling her strings, "woman who is white" = Hillary Clinton...or possibly Gretchen Whitmyer.....but I think it should be Harris. "someone" has been pulling Biden's strings for the last couple of years, so nothing would change.

If Biden steps down, which is a strong possibility, Harris becomes President under the Constitution. In any event does anyone really think she is not now heavily involved in "Presidential" decisions? In that case,why won't Joe stand down? He cannot step down as President because this will be an admission that he is in mental decline, and the questions will then be asked as to how long those at the top in the Democratic Party knew about this. We all know he is in mental decline, but the official line was that everything was fine.

So they have President Biden,a man clearly struggling,for the next half a year. Harris must frighten many Democrats then ,if they still prefer Joe. If Biden steps down, which is a strong possibility, Harris becomes President under the Constitution. In any event does anyone really think she is not now heavily involved in "Presidential" decisions?

Regarding the return of Tolls across the Severn Bridge.....
"However, Monmouthshire County Council, which the bridge sits in, now floated the idea of bringing the toll charge back last year.
It made its case by saying a return of the tolls would "reduce journeys to and from Bristol by private car and subsequently would reduce traffic on the M4 and the M48". But Monmouthshire council council leader Mary Ann Brocklesby said the council has no intention of bringing back the bridge tolls. The Labour councillor said: “It’s not something we are doing nor are we considering doing it and we do not intend lobbying for it. “It is not part of the plan. We will look at feedback from the consultation, the council’s scrutiny committee and the transport forum and review and revise the strategy in light of that.” - This is classic political double-speak!
In other words, no, they are not even thinking about it, but there are consultations and it is being reviewed, and things will be 'revised' after that. You can be near enough certain that they will be re-introduced.

He is going to win the election in November unless he is killed,which they tried,and will try again. Its not a "tiny minority" - do you honestly believe that? If so, why did they remove Biden tonight if that was true? It makes no sense. They are f**ked.Again, unless Nuclear war breaks out, or Trump is killed ,he wins in November. They can't steal another election. Deal with it. Almost 80 million voted for trump in 2020. Do you honestly think that the Democrats can come close to that number on November,which Trump will.. Get a grip. Who.. stole what? ...as if you hadn't noticed that in America...it's mostly a case OF WHO SHOUTS THE LOUDEST. Is the one who gets listened to... and like the lemmings they all follow the path to oblivion... Trump is a potential disaster...if....as it seems he gets a massive win ,then I believe there will be more problems on mainland Europe than there currently is. . Where that may lead to ..... who knows If there are 'problems on mainland Europe' that will not be down to Trump, but the European politicians who have consistantly under-funded defence spending.

Good for him. Now we can attack Trump on his policies. Wait, does he have any? Judging from his ridiculous tub thumping God Bless the USA return speech, he has nothing to offer except the usual bluster. A truly astonishing thing that some in the USA believe he is the answer. To anything. At least most voters over there don't believe in his empty patriotism. Possibly even more astonishing that some people here in the UK agree. Thankfully it's only a tiny minority, and even more thankfully they won't get a vote. It's the same thing here in the UK. Does anyone really think Starmer and Labour 'have the answers'? Both candidates in the US are truly shocking! The quality of politicians in the UK has never been lower. Even the EU has a leader in Von Der Lying who only scrapped in by a couple of votes, even though she was the only one on the ballot paper!

Good to hear Nobby. Apparently you're wrong Oldie. I said their "Rulings" This judgement was arrived at the behest of the UN. You cannot arrest a whole country, but given that they have judged the occupation to be illegal it then becomes easier to go after the leaders and perpetrators of Zionist expansion You are getting mixed up Oldie. The case against the Israeli leadership is to do with the Israeli defensive actions in Gaza. This latest opinion is based upon the settlements. There was no court case regarding the settlements. The ICJ were asked to give their opinion. It is not a 'judgement', nor is it a 'ruling', but just an opinion.

It is not a ruling, merely an opinion. It is not legally binding. Netanyahu has an arrest warrant out on him. If he entered the UK we would be legally bound to arrest him. That is a different case/subject. Yes, the UK is legally bound to follow the judgements of the ICJ, but this latest thing is just an opinion. It is NOT legally binding.

Are you suggesting that Trump will alter the constitution? He would if he could. The irresponsible troublemaker would do anything to benefit his cause. If Biden had suffered a similar near miss attack, the loonettes on here would be saying it was a Democratic plot to give him an excuse to step down. I am certain the usual suspects here would have leapt in straight away, with evidence based on the ravings of deranged right wingers who see a conspiracy in every cup of coffee. Thankfully I am free of such delusional thoughts so I don't think The Donald plotted his own near demise, but it's certainly turned out well for him. "The loonettes on here". Is their any need? When fact, it was someone on your home site who was laughing about it and wondering why the gunman missed. You claim to be free of 'delusional thoughts' yet you come up with some wild conspiracy theory regarding what people on here may/would/could have said if it were Biden shot!

Rubbish.Farage and the millions of Britons that don't want these people in our country were right to say it just how it is. We're sick of them. They wrecked cars and buses because they are as thick as s**t,violent and anti British culture bunch. What people? What people? Would you be happy to hold a Referendum on this? Let's say the question is something along the lines on Net Zero immigration (ie one in, one out). How do you think the British public would vote? I think we both know the answer to that.

ICJ. Not legally binding. Thank them for their opinion. Push on Israel. Their rulings are legally binding in our country, the UK. Are you suggesting we break the law? It is not a ruling, merely an opinion. It is not legally binding.

Any body looking at Russia/ China yet 🤔.......and conveniently,we are about to complete a house sale/ purchase, with builders giving a deadline of 4 pm today for contracts completion ( their solicitors put it back a week) now we seemingly have a no go area! Nothing able to happen at their end ... Sounds like a security patch corrupted Microsoft Windows...reports are Microsoft have fixed it but it will take a while to feed out to end users. This highlights the dangers of moving towards the digital currency,

Begs the question though, just how will GB Energy produce energy??? Didn't we have the same in Bristol with the energy company owned by the council going bust? I fear you are making the same mistake as Anderson. The Bristol company was a retailer not a producer So, how are GB Energy going to produce energy?

Everywhere Farage goes he makes Clacton known.Why should'nt he pop over to the US for a few days to visit a friend,a friend that may well be the next President of the US. I wonder what good Don could do for Clacton? A new gold course,a hotel,some business to help the tourism trade.Etc. Your silly hatred has made you a little short sighted Oldie. Yeah Obviously Chancer gets elected in an area blighted by lower than average incomes and wrecked public services, immediately buggers off the States.Takes his salary. Christ, some people are so gullible. Some people are so gullible that they think an MP should work 365 days a year in their constituancy ! Give your head a wibble.

So, explain your Republican theory! I would love to hear this. Paranoia again. You posted the theory of short selling and I was taking the proverbial Ah, you were taking the proverbial eh. You made a comment, I asked you to explain it but doing so gives me paranoia!. Is paranoia your latest buzz word(s) after dog whistling? PS - the short selling 'story' is not a theory. It is a fact. They are recorded 'puts'. The intention behind them are, of course, speculation, but you have to admit that questions need to be asked as it is suspicious.

For God's sakes, it's not paranoia. You will not read it anywhere, as they are s**t scared to openly admit that is what they want to do. Why do you think Brexit was never mentioned in the run-up to the election? Because they don't intend to try? You have zero evidence to the opposite. This is unbelievable really. Perhaps our "Nige" is plotting something whilst visiting the USA instead of working in his constituency. And taking tax payers money at the same time For gawd's sakes....Do you really expect ANY MP to work 365 days a year in their constituancy? Really? Please try to provide an adult response instead of this sixth form rhetoric.
