I imagine Zelensky’s expectations of Trump and his administration have drastically altered in the last few weeks.

Yes if he drops dead now we are just stuck with the equally odious and slimy Vance. He could be more dangerous anyhow, because he actually has a functioning brain.

Or clearly not, since they re-elected the imbecile.

You mean like the Oliver Stone version of JFK?

Maybe, probably, but nice little backup for them.

We are going to need a minor miracle to beat Real and the refs.

I like the time period and the sets are impressive. Stephen Graham is pretty good in most things and this is no exception. Thankfully it doesn't have Radiohead and Iggy Pop playing in the background.

That's the treble gone at least. It will be funny if they lost on Sunday as well.

He posted a few weeks back that he wanted to take a break.

Ok thanks. Just because I heard that some of the meters(maybe the older ones) lose connectivity and people as a result have received ridiculous bills, which the energy companies have taken as gospel because of the meter.

I am just about to switch energy suppliers(long overdue). We have not got a smart meter and we just can't decide whether we should get one. Any strong opinions for and against would be welcome!

The fact that we are 2nd and are quite frankly a distinctly average team says it all. Man City have lost 9 games already this season and yet will still probably qualify for the champions league. There are alot of good footballers around, but how many world class players. I can only put Mo Salah in that bracket and this is supposed to be the best league in the world. It mirrors the international scene and the drop off for me has been immense in the last decade or so. Overcoaching, too many matches, obscene wages for very average footballers, don’t know what the reasons are, but I honestly think supporters are being short changed at the moment.

That was not posted by me @Parafox that was @The Bear!

Have to agree, yes we needed to know her backstory and it was a big reveal right at the end. However, it was a hell of a tedious journey getting there.

Excellent final (I assume) series of Snowpiercer, with some great lines from Sean Bean’s engaging villainous character.

Certainly not me! 🤣

Why are there so many men these days, utterly unable to deal with a woman telling them their relationship is over?

Indeed, but it is of course these imbeciles that will decide upon their policy. They have made it clear that they hold no regard for Ukraine, besides the mineral wealth they perceive available. I don't see Russia have anything to fear from any possible escalation from the US as it stands.

Just saw for the first time, a clip, not shown on mainstream news, which I think is near the beginning of the infamous white house row. I don't have it to upload unfortunately. However, Zelensky is explaining to tweedledum and tweedledee the origins of Putin’s aggression in Ukraine, so the invasion of Crimea in 2014 and Putin’s breaking of agreements. Trump’s contribution is to interject and say that it was 2015 and upon being corrected just shrugs and says “ I was not around then”. When Zelensky mentions dealing with Obama and Biden the mood changes and Vance goes into his disrespect bs. People saying on here that Putin respects the USA, I am sure he is just laughing at how they have re-elected two utter imbeciles into high office.

‘Realistic attitude’ is that your euphemism for taking the Trump deal, with no security for the country? That would just be a temporary ceasefire for Putin to March back in. I am always surprised that people think appeasement is viable policy, when history has shown otherwise. The only thing I can agree with Trump is that Europe does need to be more responsible for its defence. Not sure how Russia could actually take on a Europe, that includes countries on its border like Poland who have the third largest military in NATO. This is a Russia, who have had to go begging to North Korea to use North Korean troops on the Ukraine front line, as they have lost so many of their own forces.

No because we would n’t want little Donnie upset.

Was Zelensky really supposed to sit there on his hands while tweedledum and tweedledee spouted their bs?

They have a world class aquarium on the Tagus waterfront, well worth visiting.

Fair play to her, acted on her conscience, rare to see.
