    This would be a huge, stain on the reputation of the UK and this government if any of this were (true) even considered by Trump.
    To be honest here, the actions of Trump are not going to be considered a stain on anyone but Trump and those alleged to be consulting him on this.

    It applies in both cases, so both should face the consequences.
    You may struggle to see the difference, I don?t and think her sentence is disgraceful.

    How would 'Tommy Robinson' qualify for a VISA to enter the USA, with a list of criminal convictions as long as your arm even before the so-called political prisoner status.

    Criminal offences

    Robinson's criminal record includes convictions for violence, financial, and immigration frauds, cocaine possession with intent to supply, and public order offences.[135][136][137] He had previously served at least three separate custodial sentences: in 2005 for assault, in 2012 for using false travel documents, and in 2014 for mortgage fraud.[13][138][139]

    Use of false passport

    In October 2012, Robinson was arrested and held on the charge of having entered the United States illegally. He had used a passport in the name of Andrew McMaster to board a Virgin Atlantic flight from London Heathrow to New York City.[13] He had been banned from entering the US due to his criminal record.

    Starmer has been reported to the official, statistics, watchdog, in relation to what he says is going to be the cost of the Chagos deal. He has allegedly lied to the British public about the true cost of this deal. He was actually pulled up on it the other day and came out with some waffle about 'net' figures which according to him, is the way that things like this are costed.

    The real cost is said to be up to ten times what Starmer quoted, bare-faced liar.

    Perhaps they'll find that the government has actually used the long-established method for calculating the cost of long-term projects. This shows the cost as a representative amount in 'today's money'. Interesting that our '5 Eyes' security partners are OK with this agreement. Those opposed seem to mainly be China, Russia, Iran, Reform and the Tories. It will be interesting to see the outcome. Bloody Stattos eh?

    Sometimes BFP I despair of people, a bereaved and traumatised woman makes a stupid tweet and realises how stupid it is and deletes it but gets a totally inappropriate 31 month sentence. Do you really believe she is dangerous and was really inciting mass murder?
