I'd like to see a video from an earlier starting point, this looks like the end of a situation so doesn't give the full story.

If she really was driving away from them then she'd have been in reverse. It's easy to criticise on the basis of frame-by-frame analysis. If the cop had the abililty to freeze time I'm sure he would have. But if I was him, with a gun pointing at someone who's driving at them, resisting...

Those shots are very selective, to the point of misleading. The wheels were turned to the left, or at least straight when she accelerated. If the road hadn't been icy she'd have run him down. But the wheels span on the ice, then she turned right, got some grip on the ice and the car started...

...because there's no logical way of disagreeing?

You have to make allowances for the fact that the cop had to make a decision in a tiny fraction of a second. The police and protestors were in confrontation. She was driving a couple of tons of weapon, ignoring reasonable demands, the cop had to jump aside to avoid being hit and he didn't know...

She was "just" driving at an armed cop who was aiming a gun at her while telling her to stop. Whatever the rights and wrongs of the police being armed, whether they're too trigger happy or whatever, I'm absolutely certain I wouldn't have done that.

It's hard to tell from the tiny video, but it looks like she did drive at an armed police officer who was pointing a gun. Would anyone expect a different outcome? The injury thing may be far-fetched, but it does look like he was in danger, and she intended this. Hopefully even in today's...

From the BBC... Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem says an ICE officer was struck by the SUV and received treatment in hospital before being released I sounds like George Floyd all over again.

More mystery. Pray tell, oh wise one, what wisdom you could share with us mere plebs? "If you can't dazzle with brilliance then baffle with bullshit."

This is all exactly as planned by Starmer. Russia will definitely provoke pathetic France and the UK if we send our boy scouts there. There will be an "accidental" bombing or something, whoopsie we wiped out your army. Start World War 3 just in time to have the perfect excuse to cancel the...

Meaningless waffle warning. Are you an AI robot?

Yawn.

You should have started a campaign, sometime before 2016. Then shut up shortly after when you lost. Bloody democracy eh?

Cheers... I know, it's like the time I tried telling Jehovah's Witnesses on the doorstep it was all made-up! Mmmm Kiev. I'm thinking of spicy chicken now. Kitchen time!

Try starting a thread for people who want to moan about Brexit if you like. Or add to the 1000s of others that have been side-tracked by it. In a nutshell, any figures are guesses, as there's no parallel universe where the UK didn't leave, lots of other things have gone on, mostly negative...

Regardless of what went before, things were in pretty good shape in 1997. Major was very responsible financially, just a shame about all that Maastricht madness, which thankfully we reversed in 2016.

I suppose you're going to say some terrible tornado blew in from the USA and swept all our money away? Other countries suffered, mostly to a lesser extent. We were already standing tip-toe on a high wire, we only needed any shock, this was the one that happened to hit us. Northern Rock was...

Brown and Blair were very cautious for their first term, they just followed the previous Tory plans, i.e. copied their homework. Then when they got re-elected (the first time ever for Labour I believe), they turned the taps on with Tax Credits and all kinds of spending. You'd need to check how...

So do you think the national debt can just carry on increasing? That appears to be the current policy. If not then we need massive spending cuts that Labour can't do or huge tax rises that Labour's promised not to do.

Sorry if it was too subtle for you, I was actually mocking your lack of understanding in suggesting that you might believe it's all imaginary!
