They absolutely would be. In Moscow or Tehran there'd be boots to pies all over the place. Not a chance they could have got away with it over there.

Putin would've had half the c***s killed a week ago.

Trump has now promised an orderly transition.


 

Whilst also claiming his 4 year period was “the greatest first term in presidential history”.

It's certainly memorable

There's a bit of a stooshie going on just now on the 'logic' in gender identity.

Aye, but I don't think anyone's arguing about whether or not they physically have a penis.

I've already typed the word 'penis' far too many times for 9:30am on a weekday.

Jeremy Vine show getting Trump apologists on today . Seriously.
Antifa getting blame off some mentalist

Why are they letting them on ? It's clear that Trump supporters were committing domestic terror last night. I doubt you would have been allowed on to the Vine show blowing the trumpet for the nutter who killed Jo Cox and rightly so.

Watched PBS on and off overnight, and they explained the lax security. Normally when there's going to be a rally or protest like this the Justice Department and FBI get together with the local police forces, Secret Service and National Guard and share intelligence and work out a plan. This never happened, presumably on Trump's orders. The Capitol building has its own police force, mainly in their 50s and 60s, and it seems they were left alone, at least initially.

That's tremendous, if so. I guess it didn't occur to anybody that they one day they might have to protect the government from a mob led by their own president.

It's just weird and goes against other terror investigations where everyone who assisted the (Muslim) terrorist has been prosecuted. 

We know for a fact that the British state has directed terror operations against it's own citizens before during the Troubles and also been in involved in many terror plots abroad. That may or may not have happened here.

Instead of saying that Trump is more than complicit and saying he won't be allowed back into the UK, she looks like her world is collapsing. Totally unfit for office. 

Jesus H Christ, I'm about to defend Priti Patel :(

Although she hasn't used the word 'condemn' there is no doubt that she's laying some blame on Trump.

"His comments directly led to the violence, and so far he has failed to condemn that violence and that is completely wrong."

"He basically has made a number of comments yesterday that helped to fuel that violence and he didn't actually do anything to de-escalate that whatsoever"

 

She's still totally unfit for er... office anything.

Yours, I'm defending Priti Patel, these are indeed strange times we live in!

Expecting her to say anything against him is pointless, like asking Ted Cruz to denounce Trump. They are all cut from the same cloth and the Tories model themselves on Trump and his methods. We are just a bit further back on the same road here.
