That was of course the same Tony Blair the conspired to create a false dossier of fabricated evidence to allow the invasion of Iraq & the killing of 250,00 innocent civilians and the hounding and murder of Dr David Kelly - The public inquiry results sealed for 70 years???
I have always found Turners work and use of colour stunning
Wolf still going strong Gaz?
Full resignation letter from Demetre C. Daskalakis, a CDC leader, does not hold back. "The recent shooting at CDC is not why I am resigning. My grandfather, who I am named after, stood up to fascist forces in Greece and lost his life doing so. I am resigning to make him and his legacy proud."
Surely you mean autocratic authoritarian dictatorship and institutional corruption?
Trump and his dictator buddies Putin, Xi and Kim Jong Un are consolidating power and links for their future world dictatorship
At what point will historians say America ceased to be a democratic nation and became an autocratic authoritarian dictatorship? It is clear now that every function US institutions - whether independent from central government or not are now under Trumps command. IE Federal reserve
Do you think that there will free & fair elections ever again?
It won’t ever be rebuilt America is entering its Putin phase; where jobs will be handed out on the basis of cronyism and corruption rules. Free reporting of disasters will be banned
You really think America is still democratic??
So at Putins behest, Trump & Vance are planning to depose Zelensky with someone more corrupt & malleable to Trump & Putins aims. Vance already approaching potential alternatives - Hos did America come to this? Betraying a country whose sovereignty and independence they pledged to defend SHAME!!
The Supreme Court and Roberts in particular, will be remembered as the bastion that was supposed to protect the rule of law, but instead; allowed the destruction of the rule of law & democracy and the rise of authoritarian dictatorship.
Interesting that Russian attacks on Ukraine have over doubled since Trump was inaugurated- Trump is enabling Russian attacks on Ukraine!
So rather than "quod erat demonstrandum" (Q.E.D.) Kennedy is proposing "quod non erat demonstrandum,"……. Basically because he says so. Isn’t this like an authoritarian dictatorship & governme
So rather than "quod erat demonstrandum" (Q.E.D.) Kennedy is proposing "quod non erat demonstrandum,"……. Basically because he says so. Isn’t this like an authoritarian dictatorship & government
So Kennedy wants to retract any scientific evidence unless the numbers support his positions? This is a rejection of science in the round.
Has the US suspended Habeas Corpus?
Is she stepping down as an MP as well?? She certainly should do!
I don’t expect anyone that voted demo will be in the census either
So now Americas FSB?
The UN doing nothing, The Red Cross doing nothing. What has become of the world?
An interesting test of the US’s integrity honesty and clarity of intentions. The US brokered the disarmament of Ukraine - Signed the Budapest memorandum now refuses to honor it. Trump now expects US industry to benefit to be paid by third parties while US stands back - US can’t be relied on anymore
So in future like Russia the numbers will be whatever Trump decides…..
Don’t put ideas into Trump’s head please
So the whole Epstein organisation was modeled on what Trump had already done with his modeling agency?? But this isn’t going to be investigated?
Personally I would have thought we would want the best & brightest minds regardless of background-we could end up with a Reform party issue. People in jobs they have no idea how to do
The issue could be perhaps that the mechanism for recording crimes has changed I.e The goalposts have changed. Take shoplifting as an example- The police have zero interest it is no longer policed
Or how Trump and MAGA handed scientific research leadership to China…
There was me thinking convicted criminals wouldn’t get a visa…..
⚡️Netherlands, OSCE seek investigation into Russian torture of Ukrainian POWs. The Netherlands & 40 other OSCE members have called for an independent investigation into the torture & mistreatment of Ukrainian prisoners of war by Russian forces, Dutch Foreign Minister Caspar Veldkamp said July 24.
❗️Another brutal execution of a Ukrainian prisoner of war by russian forces. They tied his body to a motorcycle and dragged it down the road. We’ve seen plenty of videos showing how they treat their own soldiers. So it’s no surprise they do the same to Ukrainians. Fucking barbarism.
Pretty clear Trump is either allied or controlled by Putin
Insurrection act invoked? Constitution repealed ?
Military dictatorship imposed by Trump and his team
Too late US is now a dictatorship
Do the FAA have any accident investigators left after DOGE cuts? Who has Boeings back this time?
America’s Geheime Staatspolizei (Gestapo) Truly shocking! full fascist dictatorship lands with a crash in America and still people do nothing and just accept whatever Trump and his gang of thugs want to do - Concentration camps next?

This could finish Boeing Aircraft. People have been warning for years about declining quality standards and processes on 787 - to the extent some Boeing employees refused to fly on them
I’ve worked in the industry over 45 years - Boeing used to be the Gold Standard…. up until the merger with McDonnell. The brand has been prostituted and raped for cash. Unfortunately you can’t do this without harming quality and production standards and product quality. It is a crying shame.
Like the whole US community threw stones at Foreign pilots after the 737MAX crash?? Turns out Boeing had breached every design protocol going and the FAA had gone native agreeing to anything Boeing suggested? We are deafened by the sounds of chickens coming home to roost!

He colludes with Russia over the destruction of democracy so he can rule as a king over the ruins
Trump is leading America to fascist thuggish brutality - Democracy is finished
America goes full fascist dictatorship - how long before the insurrection act is invoked and Constitution & elections revoked?
So not only has Trump failed in his promise to stop the killing in Ukraine- He’s starting to kill Americans…
I will do anything I can to stop this abomination - most people I speak to are basically fat, dumb & happy and complacent. The issue is by the time it effects the majority it is too late (as told to me by a German that lived through Hitler rise to power) once the rule of Law is gone USA is Russia
Look at the facts 1. Last year the Supreme Court ensured their destruction when they ruled the president is above the law. 2. Presidential edict this year says only the President defines what the law is. 3. Judicial judgements being ignored judges purged. Congress members being denied legal access
Too little too late. Democracy is dead in America
Don’t worry Gary they will… Trump will also impose the insurrection act and suspend the Constitution & Elections- Interesting that the Supreme Court ensured their own destruction when ruled last year that the president is above the law
Don’t you realise that the only rights you have are what Trump decides? That is what the Supreme Court judgement last year and the presidential edict this year actually mean. Democracy is over the US is now a fascist state
Did no one in the US government study basic geography??
"When bad men combine, the good must associate, else they will fall one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle." Edmund Burke Today, we remember the enormous sacrifices of the Allies in the struggle to liberate Europe from Nazi tyranny. Evil and aggression must never prevail #DDay
Aircraft carriers of the world USA UK France Ukraine
Slava Ukraini!🇺🇦 Glory to our Heroes!🇺🇦l #Ukraine
Americas version of the Geheime Staatspolizei - don’t the Gestapo in the USA need a Warrant? Or can they just kick doors in of political opponents and arrest people to intimidate people.
Who are talking of 3% by 2035 🙄
Where are the first US concentration camps and death camps going to be?
Where are the first US concentration camps going to be sited?
Wrong! Sad the VP didn’t even pass basic history. It was German engineers led by Werner Von Braun that developed theUS space program
So after all the immigrants to the USA have been deported that will leave just the Native peoples of North America? So when is Trump being deported?
Putin owns Trump!
The question is? how long will it take HMG to recognise the truth and take decisive action?
Looks like the truth is out, F35B is a white elephant. It will not get a Block4 upgrade, and SPEAR3 & METEOR will never be integrated to it. The Marine corps is already transiting F35C. The adaptive flow engine only fits F35A & C. B is dead. Time for a ‘come to Jesus meeting’
America is transitioning to a police state run by fascists
Trump is a delusional bullshiging criminal & rapist - why would anyone listen to him?
ASCOD, ULAN, Ajax, Booker are not even a single vehicle type. Booker & ULAN use Horstman dampers due to the problems with Spanish ones - these vehicles have different design, no of road wheels, dimensions etc No standardisation. Nightmare
Lived and worked there
With the approval of this bill America becomes a de facto fascist dictatorship - interesting it’s not been picked up by international media. The end of the rule of law in America
I don’t suppose you were taught about Wilberforce the abolition of slavery, the East Africa Squadron, Freetown Sierra Leone? One of my nieces came home saying Britain is evil! What do they actually teach?
There is no genocide - Genocide is the organized destruction of a race of people like the industrial death camps in Germany, Poland etc
No it gave the Baltic states to the Soviet State. Go reread it and the secret protocols dividing Europe into Spheres of influence …. Empire building by any reasonable analysis.
Don’t forget Stalin started WW2 allied to the Nazi’s 👍 Ribbentrop Molotov pact 👍
Well Hitler did it, Mussolini did it, Franco did it, Stalin did it…..
This was my pal… Blue cat sadly had to be put to sleep due to mouth cancer - still talk to him though!
It is as our US friends say ‘one hell of a load’!
Pretty much sums up Trump I think www.semafor.com/article/05/0...
Nicholas the field feedback on this weapon is poor see attached report t.co/f6iwhyOOy9 we should have gone with .280” after the war
It working so well in practice t.co/f6iwhyOOy9
Fantastic well done Ann - well deserved!
It is a disaster the lack of process/quality controls in Spain has been appallingly bad every hull different! no consistency- you can see why Leopard 2 license manufacturing was removed from this company - incompetence made flash
GD said it was verified to 42 T a lie, that there would be 10,300 UK jobs - a lie, that Ajax would be British from its bootstraps - a lie, that all elements would be offered to British companies a lie - that all problems are resolved a lie etc etc
@brianmoore666.bsky.social Fantastic performance by Saints!! Freeman was great. Makes Lions picks interesting!
All the hulls appear to be different lengths?
It never existed. The whole MOTS story was just that a scam.
FOC not until 2029 but even then it will not include Morpheus which UK taxpayers paid GD £800,000,000 for and they delivered nothing….. but that’s OK according to DE&S
I particularly like Niall’s description of Trump as a New York Real Estate salesman
For those of you that have not read Niall Fergusons excellent works, this recent interview vis-a-vis Trump, Putin, Elon, Xi Ukraine, Russia, USA & Taiwan coincides with my views so I obviously like it! Niall seems pretty spot on with his analysis. t.co/cdFWRPueKU
Looks like a giant protection scheme run by the mafia
Which is what the UK should have done rather than buy American- had we bought CV90 it would have been UK manufactured not eight years late and we would have a common vehicle with our real allies
Turning America into Russia…..
Or a sociopath…
With Trump it’s always someone else’s fault!! He is unable to take responsibility for his own actions - So Trump is now destroying the credibility of the Fed?? That’s really going to help! A run on the dollar with US debt levels 🙄
Particularly since the Chinese aren’t selling any to the US anymore
Well they are very good at rhetoric!!
Fantastic work Gaz well done 👍
So the first 100 plus Ajax with substantial hull defects will get new hulls per your website?
