The moral maze

[Yafo]

What you know about Trump & his presidency all comes from your media of choice. He was democratically elected & if you disagree with that then you are going to have serious problems when Corbyn gets in.

I don't dispute it was a democratic decision, as was brexit.

Are you saying lots of adults were not swayed? Easily!

I suppose anyone over 16 years, would be the save bet.

It's not as simple as that. It is 18 or 16 depending on the circumstances (agenda).

Obviously using 18 in all cases is frought with contradictions.

 

[JohnD]

Obviously using more than one age is fraught with contradictions.

 

[EFLImpudence]

Yes, I should have said something like that.

so back to the point ??

Should arms sales be stopped to Saudi Arabia ? Bearing in mind that the UK sell about 30% of it manufactured arms to them


France sell 1.4 billion € worth

USA have a 140 billion dollar contract with em

All the jobs involved in the above
That pay mortgages ? Health care
Ect ect

If it stopped they would buy off of China ? Russia ? May be

The world is run by despots.
Pull up the drawbridge on the lot of them, and take the moral high ground. Otherwise.......

Stopped?

Paused?

Which one then ?

 

[Yafo]

Which one then ?

You either stand up for your beliefs, or you don't.

To me, the sales should be paused as a minimum, until the full outcome is known and settled.

You choose your own opinion and morals. Part of being in big trading blocs helps at times.

Full out come ?

Journalist was tortured and murdered in the embassy in Turkey . Said murder was planned at the highest level in Saudi Arabia bloke was cut up and smuggled out in diplomatic. Bags

Prince wat his name will deny it

No surprise there then

Tis all pretty clear cut tbh

Thousands of jobs at a stake world wide so any moral
Stance is down the collective toilet

So I am with you Trump and Macron and the U.K.

Bussiness as usual
