TdF 2027 stage 2 goes through my "playground" in the Trough of Bowland. 🙂

"Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time." In your perfect World, who gets to choose who is allowed to vote, and what they are allowed to vote for ?

It makes me wonder just what it is they are hoping to "reform". It's more like "regurgitated".

Probably the most fascistic post on the forum in years. Do you actually understand the concept of democracy ?

My wife has worked out Trump's secret agenda; There is an issue with extracting the mineral wealth of Greenland, which he covets, in that most of it is currently under billions of tons of ice. The Venezuelan oil is necessary to accelerate global warming and speed up the melting of the ice to make extraction more financially viable.

"Just because they had a boat that landed there 500 years ago doesn't mean the land is theirs". ( Trump on Denmark's claim over Greenland ). Come on Donnie, just think about what you just said.

Well yes. There is no logic behind thnking Russia is going to seize Greenland, and even less for China taking it.

And trigger Article 5.

Trump ramping up the rhetoric over Greenland, saying if the US doesn't have the island then Russia or China will take it. 1) Greenland is already a member of NATO and therefore covered by Article 5. 2) The US already has treaties permitting the placement of as much military as they want. Owning the island would make no difference. 3) How does he think China are going to sneak up and take it ? 4) Clearly his ambition is nothing whatsoever to do with the potential mineral wealth.

Surely that is "Bazumped" ?

You would think a quick phone call to the Met to see how that "match" went would have been appropriate.
