  1. "Oo oo oo, I wanna be like you ou ou...."
  2. In response to your second line, ( added well after my original reply ); why are you so insecure ? Why do you think slinging insults makes you the "winner", or the "better person" ? It doesn't.
  3. As I don't do X, Reddit, Quora, META, or any other of the more enlightened outlets, I fear that at my age the chance has passed me by.
  4. 2 weeks ago the US Department of Health ran an exercise to determine their response to a nuclear or radiological incident. Today, everybody involved in that exercisr, and all other members of their teams, have been laid off. Thousands of Federal employees are only finding out they have been let go when, on turning up for work, their door passes no longer let them into their buildings.
  5. Last night I saw an Irish Bhangra band. They are called the Bombay Micks.

    Elon Musk

    On a thread discussing Elon Musk, yes it is relevant, unless, that is, we are only allowed to post items that are directly relevant to residents of the UK. In which case the Donald Trump, Russia, and Israel threads should be binned for starters. If the result of this election had gone the way of Musk's candidate, vindicating the bribing of voters, would you be questioning this being posted ?

    Elon Musk

    Looks like Elon's candidate in Wisconsin has been defeated.
  9. You are beginning to show progress.
  10. I have just watched a video where somebody who had published an April Fool story a few years ago, has had to explain that although it has become part of some established texts, it remains a hoax. The problem has been that the original was published on 01/04/2014, which Americans have subsequently taken as January 4th, and they persist in telling him his story is fact..
  11. No it isn't true. There are recommendations from the Sentencing Council, which provides guidance for Judges, to look differently on people from ethnic minorities, to "balance" the Justice system, but the Government has said that if these guidelines are introduced, Parliament will pass legislation to prevent them being enacted.
  12. Kemi tries, and fails, in an April Fool's jest.
  13. According to the Beeb there is a backlog in the appeal Courts such that it could be 2 years before she gets the chance.
  14. J D Vance has been tasked with removing "improper ideologies" from................. The Smithsonian National Zoo Park.
  15. https://www.ctvnews.ca/montreal/article/climate-of-fear-montreal-doctor-says-nyu-cancelled-her-presentation/ "A Montreal doctor says her presentation at NYU was abruptly cancelled and believes the university did so out of fear of being pressured by the Donald Trump administration. Dr. Joanne Liu, the former international president of Doctors Without Borders, said the abrupt cancellation speaks to the “climate of fear” universities in the U.S. are now living under in which they preemptively “self-censor” themselves to avoid retaliation." "Liu, a pediatric emergency physician at Sainte-Justine Hospital and professor at McGill University’s School of Population and Global Health, was due to give a presentation on challenges in humanitarian crises on March 19 at NYU, her alma mater. " " The night before the presentation, she said she got a call from the vice chair of the education department who had raised concerns with the contents. A couple of the slides in her presentation touched on the casualties in Gaza during the Israel-Hamas war as well as the cuts at the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Liu said she was told the slides about Gaza “could be perceived as antisemitic” while the USAID section might be perceived as “anti governmental.” Liu, who was already in New York when she got the call, offered to make edits to those slides but then three hours later, after some deliberations, she said the university apologized and said they had to cancel."
  16. Trump said a couple of days ago, after appointing his personal lawyer as the US Attorney for New Jersey, that he expected the Courts to go after "very bad people of crime". He also said he had pardoned a convicted fraudster because "he was one of the first people to support a gentleman called Donald Trump for President". Having removed the Associated Press from the White House press corps, because they refused to refer to the Gulf of Mexico by another name, he has appointed in their place a right wing blogger who has received hundreds of thousands of dollars from the Kremlin to parrot Russian propaganda. Trump following Putin's playbook, page by page.
  17. Marine Le Pen banned from public office for 5 years, so out of the next French Presidential election.
  18. Trump has said that whilst they are putting up barriers to immigration, Afrikaaner "refugees" from South Africa will be welcomed if they want to escape the "egregious racial discrimination" being enacted by the SA Government..
  19. They play at the Etihad on April 12th.
  20. Disney being investigated by the FCC over it's diversity and inclusion processes.
  21. ICE have started revoking people's visas without informing them, so that the first they know of it is when they are snatched off the street by ICE agents and shipped to an out of State prison, which means that they are denied any access to lawyers or due process, and their friends and families have no idea where they are.
