    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You are going to be so embarrassed when Biden wins. The American public can certainly act daft at times, as witness Trump being president, but they do learn. I'm sure you know the old adage, "You can fool some of the people all of the time or all of the people - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    And bounced back each time to just as strong as before. The first mistake you make is that the eurozone isn't only about the economy, for some eurocrats not even that. It has a greater future social purpose. The second mistake you make is in not taking into account how much stronger the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I disagreed since the evidence of there. The families don't have that sort of money so they borrow it, putting themselves in danger since they have to pay back one way or the other, money or trafficked young members of the family. They do the borrowing as an investment, hoping that if one of...

    Of course, there's always more to any story, I posted in fun about them "borrowing" a tanker. However, its often their families who pay the money, not NGOs etc. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I feel sorry for the stowaways. First they pay their own way to get here by buying rubber dinghys, but get criticised because that's dangerous. So now they borrow something more substantial and safer, yet still get vilified. No wonder they got angry. .

    And as I said, what he earns and does with his money is none of your business. Even if he gave no money, his giving up time and physically working for the charities is still more generous than all the people who do nothing. We only have what we are born with in terms of ability and...

    Just been listening to some data that might upset the Twitterati. Only 20% of Americans go into Twitter. Only around 10% of them post around 80% of the comments. The conclusion was that it represents only around 3% of American opinion. I doubt it's any better anywhere else in the world...

    With crude oil so cheap and plentiful now I can't imagine they are trying to steal it. With so many airliners grounded maybe it's a modern "Sail me to Cuba" variation. And Cuba is short of oil with Trump in office. .
