“He’s hit that one too well” “The board considers that a deduction of three points is right and fair”

But in their cases they have frequently followed the Kremlin line, and are only invited on to provide a friendly, not contrary, view to what the Russian media are required to produce, which suggests support. Anyway, like I said, we’re not changing each other’s minds so no point going in circles.

That’s the one. The fact he is a child sex offender means his whole being is warped into someone who only cares about themself and their urges, which means their political motivations also fall under scrutiny.

I dunno who Dave or this poster is, have they done the rounds before?

He’s free to his delusions, just as I’m sure he feels I’m free to mine. Regardless, we’re not changing each other’s minds on this, but any other reader can do some due diligence on the commentators he’s linked to and make up their own minds.

No I wouldn’t. The BBC is far from perfect but it is not comparable to the cesspit of Russian media. Take it from a Russophile who lived there, left in March 2022, and would happily return once they realise the folly of their imperial ambitions. I too criticise US actions on many things and...

Don’t get wise. I’m not searching the internet for you. Not that there would be anything wrong with that, it’s where you get your information from afterall. Have they not worked for Sputnik and RT? Are they not Russian state controlled media outlets?

If you think the varied output of western media is comparable to the utter drain of Russian state sponsored media then I’ll let...

Neapolitan is another pro Russian crank (among other things), with questionable moral fibre so it’s no wonder he platforms a convicted child sex offender in the odious Ritter. McGovern is another Putinist who shills for the Russians. Mearsheimer is a strange one. Advocated for Ukraine having a...

Pro Russian. RT commentator. Kremlin stooge. No thanks.

Ironing

Megiddo, aka Armageddon, where the final biblical battle between good and evil is prophesied, is in Israel afterall! Many of those fundamentalist religious nutters in the US will likely be quite happy to see the missiles flying if they think there’s a chance it could bring about the end of days...

Agree with your sentiment, but just be careful not to suggest all Jews support Israel’s actions as that also leads to dangerous territory.

I’m from Saltburn and spent much of my youth in Redcar so I’m no stranger to our baltic beaches!

The weather everywhere I’ve been is just so different… the intense cold of the steppes or the heat of the tropics, it’s all great fun, but it’s not the same as battling to hold on to yer chips on Saltburn pier as the weather sets in!
