They could have done. In the USA the presidency is bought and Putin is easily rich enough. And in Russia where the drunken idiotic slob Yeltsin got into power, Trump should easily qualify! .

There doesn't appear to be any link between IQ and political intelligence All Ireland MENSA has one of the highest proportions of MENSA members of any country in the world. That does seem very much at variance with their political record. .

Probably anagrams: Derf = Fred Steb = Best :D .

I'm accounting for all those but your options are still dead ends with current and near future overpopulation. No matter how much recycling develops, fresh material input will always be needed, and it can be quite substantial. To say that need not be is rather like arguing that perpetual...

Recycling needs a considerable proportion of fresh material input to sustain a usable quality, so continuing on the path of exhausting all the raw materials to support overpopulation is not viable if the human race is to have a future. In conjunction with exploiting technological advances in...

It's not just about food though, the planet's material resources aren't remotely able to meet the demands of today's population. Technology needs to be used for the opposite end, to work towards a future planet earth with around one billion population that can sustain itself permanently due to...

And later made it Take from Britain when he stole the Mirror Group pension fund and transfered it to Israel. .

Here's a link to the above. .

I've been commenting to that effect earlier in the thread, the delusions about our Empire and the fallacy that we were once a nation trading on ability and product desirability. Those are the delusions of so many Brexiters at all levels of society. We succeeded back then only because we had a...

No she didn't. The EU boundary countries let them in, she merely stuck to the letter of the law as Germans are inclined to do, since she had no legal right to stop them crossing her internal border. Once in, as a humane person she treated them decently as fellow human beings. I'm confident...

As the saying goes, thick as two short planks. The confusion in his mind shows in his expression. .

Glad they chose this one, I thought it one of your finest when you first posted it Eddie, beautiful composition. .

Only complaining about the end of womens slavery, obviously men shouldn't be slaves. :p .

Because it's nonsensical to ask here when most of it will never be available. Of course many will rate 350 and 500 watt desirable, but to what point when it cannot result in a practical outcome? A hypothetical question for a hypothetical world only, so of no value. .

Which is just what the EU is scared of so doesn't want to allow. .

Personally I think this whole business is ridiculous, why an International Women's Day? There's no International Men's Day, nor an International Peoples Day, all days belong to everyone. Likewise there's a Basketball Association for everyone, but now women have formed a Womens Basketball...

After reading the above I'm feeling deprived. At 82 I've got no stents, never had a heart attack or stroke, never broken a bone, not even a mild attack of cancer. I reckon I should get a refund from the NHS for all the national insurance payments I've made. .

I well understand that, I was never a whistler nor anyone in my family, but it seemed to be a half and half thing like Marmite. Half whistled, half detested it. As others have said it was probably the universality of music availability and impossibility of whistling later pop music that killed...

Depends on if you are both on the same ferry from the Isle of Man. :) .

I almost suggested walking since I'd consider that to for 2 miles, but didn't since I know not all enjoy walking as much as I do. .
