There's a huge difference between what is needed and what is available NOW! You simply don't discard the current solutions unless the alternatives are available in sufficient quantities and economically viable, none of which currently meets those criteria so as not to disproportionately and...

The following list of 10 countries between them contribute a total 68.8% of world Co2... China, USA, India, Russia, Japan, Indonesia, Iran, Germany, South Korea & lastly Saudi Arabia. The UK in contrast contributes 0.88% or #17 in the world pollution table. I am a strong believer in cutting...

You can call me what you want, it won't offend me as I don't value your opinion and to be fair I've had intelligent people try that and they didn't succeed so you're wasting your time. I don't know where you get the idea that 'racist jibes' are welcomed? I think your logic is a bit flawed to say...

We've left the EU so we shouldn't expect to have influence! We didn't have enough influence for the EU to moderate its migration policies when we were members which arguably would have prevented the Brexit vote so all this influence nonsense is just what it is...nonsense. Cheap migrant labour...

I'm not!

A question for the Europhiles seeing as how Brexit keeps popping up in the Trump thread. Inevitably the agenda of the EU mandarins is to create an all encompassing federal Europe, anyone who can't see that is either blind or stupid. That is the ultimate agenda of the EU so the question is what...

I'm sure you'll read this at some point even if I am on ignore. Please don't let insulting me worry you, I'm not remotely interested in seeing you banned so I assure you that you won't upset me unless you accuse me of being a Tory! Why on earth would you think that I want you banned? You're just...

The problem is that neither of the ideologies (communism or socialism) work other than on paper. For them to work they need both coercion and the compliance of people who are unable to think beyond indoctrination and neither of the ideologies are desirable in a free thinking modern world. We've...

Starmer is an utter donkey and that is arguably being unkind to donkeys. He's gone to France to discuss the Trump topic??? He condoned the sending of 100 left wing activists to give support to what turned out to be the loser's presidential campaign, so why on earth would the winners see his...

Straight from the Guardian reader's handbook I see! Sorry but I just don't subscribe to left wing total nonsense...if that upsets people enough to put me on ignore it says far more about them than me. In all the years I've been visiting internet forums I've never once put anyone on ignore no...

Absolute left wing nonsense. It's materialism which puts people into debt. In today's society given the support of benefits etc, living beyond one's means is a lifestyle choice and not an essential.

Surprisingly I can actually see the attraction of communism in some aspects but lack of aspiration would ultimately kill it for me. The primary reason why I couldn't become a socialist is because I don't resent or envy anyone who has achieved more in their lives even if they haven't worked for...

My experience of Russia was spending a considerable amount of time in the provincial regions living as a Russian does and not in the tourist destinations which is generally a far cry from tourist experiences in Moscow and St Petersburgh. Provincial Russia is far more representative of the real...

...but at least I'm not rectally verbose! Right now the bigger issue is that the USA is our largest single trading partner and if Trump sticks to his word about tariffs then that could hurt the UK, not helped by dung for brains Starmer and Lammy and people like yourself who just don't have the...

Call it intuition or maybe just beginner's luck.

I might just be on a bit of a roll here but you aren't a Democrat by any chance, are you?

Do I take it that you didn't vote for him?

It was a learning experience for me. The friends I had and people I met were all far more interested in health and fitness than your average Brit, they really did take it seriously. I didn't see the obesity we have in the West, with exercise and fitness together with surprisingly care about...

A little about the Russian people from my experience. About 20 odd years ago I regularly used to visit and stay with friends in the South Urals/Siberia region of Russia, it was like stepping back in time maybe to the UK's 1970s. I used to spend many weeks at a time there and lived as they did so...
