Anything can happen but can't see it myself. He can't even get the DHS budget through congress and they've had a partial shutdown for 46 days now. His approval levels are through the floor, conducting an unpopular war that hasn't resulted in the kind of bounce he was hoping for and the public are getting antsy about rising oil prices. Within that context it would be unlikely he would get the go ahead to leave NATO. Best and probably most likely scenario is his bones tell him he's won and he declares victory (shouldn't be hard considering he hasn't stated what the US objectives actually are). Once they clear off the world maybe starts getting back to something a bit more normal.

Someone should give him a prize for "Dumbest President Ever". Stupid fuck would still put it on the mantlepiece.

Companies who cold call you and then ask you to confirm your details.

I agree. Anyway, I'm not sure Starmer could get involved even if he wanted to. The legality is questionable at best, it's not clear what the reason for the attacks against Iran are, or what the objectives are. If parliament did it's job then any PM would struggle to get approval from the HoC under those circumstances.

Criticised him? You were an hysterical old tart about the whole thing.

Same, looks like a soap opera for blokes.

Yeah, I got an invite but you can join a waitlist here: https://join.amazonpreview.com/

I’m on the amazon preview club thing and watched the film about 6 weeks ago. Thankfully they paid me a tenner for it cos, honestly, it was a bit shit. I enjoyed the previous series but the film was terribly cliche ridden, plot was all over the place and it felt a bit cheap. All subjective but I wasn’t impressed.

From the same lot that gave us Brexit.......

I don't know it's so much about rules and more about what will actually work. If foreign countries and politicians start commenting on or attempting to interfere in domestic US issues then all that will happen is that the electorate you're trying to persuade to your point of view will entrench themselves more than they otherwise would have done. I don't disagree with you on the behaviour of Trump, Musk etc but generally speaking I think their actions are self defeating - the reaction from the public in the countries they criticise tends to be against them rather than for them. Best thing the West can do is ignore them where possible and carve out relationships and arrangements without an increasingly unreliable US. Since Carneys speech everyone seems to have woken up to the idea that you don't have to tiptoe around Trump anymore and appease him, just saying no (like Zammo should have done) is probably enough - let Trump do the rest of the damage to himself.

I don't really have any problem with the sentiment but foreign powers meddling in US domestic affairs isn't going to get the reaction you want. In fact you'll get the opposite.

That's fair enough, promise not to do it again. Reminded me of another thing that annoys me - abbreviations of McDonalds such as Macky Ds. Fairly sure there was an advert listing all the different names which just compounds the annoyance. Right up there with "Cheeky Nandos" if you ask me.

Why do leprechauns wear two condoms? To be sure, to be sure...

I feel like I probably say this every year but non-irish people celebrating paddys day.
