I have to admit, there 'is' a bit of me that would be intrigued to see how they would govern and whether their tenure would be sh1te, on a par with the established lot, or better. My concern is it could lead to Scottish independence coming to the fore up here again and I dread to think of us...

I'm not pro Reform, I'm not anti Reform. However one thing I know is this. If they get in come 2029, unless they can work miracles with the socioeconomic situation, we are unlikely to see any dramatic improvements. I suspect, no matter who gets in, it'll be more of the same.

How old is it? I recently scrapped my 2008 SEAT Leon TDi (basically a golf in many ways). I didn't want to, however it was needing quite extensive welding to structural components so I decided to call it a day and send it to the motorway in the sky. I'm still reeling going from a car that...

As I see it with people like him, the process to remove from the country should be quick, efficient and barrier free. However, part of the challenge (the biggest part?) is where do we return them to? This is a sticking point government struggles with and, whilst not defending them, it's an...

The settlement issue is still ongoing. Not sure if there's anything in the 20 point plan to address that?

If the core of this is true and has been fact checked, it is nothing short of disgusting. However, when it comes to world politics, nothing would surprise me. It's funny all these people believe in God. If God does exist, there's going to be some interesting conversations at checkpoint Pearly...

Sweden has digital ID. https://sbs-software.com/insights/digital-id-banking/ However, the following article suggests fraud is on the increase...

If it doesn't happen under the current king, I think William will do the necessary when he takes over. Andrew, and his ex Sarah, epitomise everything that's wrong with the royals. Get them gone, and soon.

True. We cannot underplay the fact Trump has the benefit of being president of thee United States of America and all that affords. However if we're being honest, so did Biden and I don't think he made much inroads? Would we have been in the same position now (or somewhere near) if Biden had...

The figures are interesting. I note some of the sources are now a few years old. I wonder if the gap between tax contribution and take is decreasing, increasing or remains pretty constant from that of the (2017?) table? To be honest with you, I suspect even if EU migrant workers contribute...

Comedian Billy Connolly once said something like 'The desire to be a politician should bar you for life from ever becoming one.' In a similar vein, I would assert if someone makes it publicly known they would like to (or indeed should) win any of the Nobel prizes, or be awarded MBEs etc, it...

In reality, we (as in most of us on here and elsewhere) will never know if lasting peace in those regions has been achieved. Why? Because, certainly by my measure, genuine lasting peace can only be considered a thing if there's been peace for decades. And most of us won't be here to know...

What are the things behind the plate with the metal rings and handles? I'm going to hazard a guess they're to cut certain foodstuffs into circles?

No. Just announced. Has gone to a woman called Maria Corina Machado. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mar%C3%ADa_Corina_Machado

Are you taking at least one disguise? I say this because when people realise you are on board, you will be hounded day and night by ladies who desire you, and men who'll want to know your secrets to being so perfect. So you'll need some way to go incognito. Please try to stay away from the...

More than you evidently know about, or are choosing to ignore.

lol at people who believe Reform are going to do much better than any of the established parties. I'm not even saying that against Reform. The main point I'm making is regardless of who's in power, I have little confidence in any of them delivering for the country. Unless of course the only...

Although it's to be expected, something that's been frustrating is people not wanting to accept more than one thing can be true at the same time. For example, the October 7th attacks were abhorrent and indefensible. That is true. It is also true that it is tragic for any innocent people...
