    After several weeks of refraining, I can only conclude that you either a bot or a very very naughty boy. Either way, I feel you have to stay out of my life. . Bye

    I have read that Poland is calling up all men for military training. It sounds like Europe really is about to flex its military muscles.

    You really don't understand how poor your take on this is or maybe you do. Calling me a liar, telling me I'm pathetically anal oh dear Os your plot is really lost.

    For the Russia apologists and those blaming Nato (laughable as it is) for Russian expansion, here is Trump’s version:

    Donald Trump, "Despite the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax, I've always had a good relationship with Putin" "Putin wants to end the war, he's going to be more generous than he needs to be" "I used to speak to Putin about Russia invading Ukraine, it was the apple of his eye"

    I think it is strange that anyone should suggest that behaviour in a Reform constituency office should be any different. The alleged behaviour should have been par for the course. Nature of the beast....

    I think they are doing their best to reflect their voters. They are absolutely falling apart tonight. Spiteful tweets flying all over the place! <laugh>

    This lad in America releases some good political videos. He must be doing something right as in one of them Fox News was upset.

    Simply; you’re not an engineer to continue with this. You’ve clearly never created or built anything in your life, or you’d know what I’m saying is true

    The Russia thing was a hoax, though. Proved by multiple independent reports.

    Trump doesn’t actually want tariffs. He is using the threat of tariffs to force cooperation on economic (and non-economic issues).

    Almost all of his rhetoric is him starting his negotiation. It’s a tactic he uses.

    Starts with something extreme, anchors the discussion way out there. Then negotiations begin and he ends up with a favourable deal.

    He literally wrote a book on this tactic and yet still people freak out every time. Makes me chuckle.

    He gets exactly what he wants - look at Europe. They’re now reducing social welfare and spending on defence. America have effectively been paying Europe’s welfare bill for years until his recent negotiations

    I`m an engineer, and the reason things are tested is to verify that the design and construction are correct, so that the equipment doesn`t fail in production. To suggest that multiple failures are just iterations to a final design is just nonsense. What kind of engineer are you by the way ?
    `They will release data soon about what actually caused it` ! - can`t wait !

    Wtaf are you talking about? It is proven that Russia interfered in the election. And now even Trump is saying Russia attacked Ukraine because they want Ukraine.

    This isn’t the same as working on a production line. They clearly defined this as a maximum stress test. They highlighted areas on the rocket that were weak points from the previous test that they strengthened for this test. They also weakened other areas that performed well.

    They literally stated this before the test. I don’t understand why you guys can’t comprehend this.

    Think of it as beta testing of new software, rather than a hardware launch

    No idea what is happening here, joyfully, but guessing that if Os ever admitted he was wrong, or that he’d learned something from people that know more than him, it would do him a lot of favours, and improve his life.

    About right?
