They might think that they are being politically clever by making agreements, hailing them, then reneging on them. Attempting to renegotiate those same agreements, seeking additional concessions from those originally agreed, then threatening to rip them up altogether. But they are just simply talking to themselves. Internationally they are embarrassing themselves and must be scraping the barrel when it comes to having any credibility left.

Frost and Johnson have been playing to their own rules and they have seen that it has had no impact on their polling figures, so they will continue onwards even if this exacerbates the economic self harm of their own country. Providing there is no self harm to those influential Tory MPs in positions of power, they will not care one jot.       

A lover scorned and all that but Cummings is going in hard on Boris being useless which I think we can all agree on, but it does beg the question who's calling the shots at the heart of Westminster??

The vested interests - as always - call the shots.  Dominic Cummings is the technical definition of a maniac, which of itself deserves some sympathy.   All the latest developments are only byproducts of regulatory alignment.  Role of ECJ is the latest herring.

Rule 4

Only 5 people

Discussion Boards - used as a board for discussion are - are an invaluable friend especially when someone is going through a hard time.   I never knew of this oversight/poor decision etc... Mistakes happen.   I'm adding Main Street and resigning my membership after tonight.   Forever.  I am doing this for a reason.   So:
Main Street
Armaghniac
Ball Hopper
The Pope
The Queen

Rule 1 proper sports
Rule 2 no paid politicians
Rule 3 must be a discussion board member

It's been 5 years  coming but Radovan Karadzic has lived long enough to be found guilty of genocide and sentenced to 40 years.
Genocide at Srebenica of course,  but it  should also be mentioned that it was the scene of one of the greatest acts of cowardice by NATO and  an armed 800 strong UN force (Dutch) under the command of Thom Karremans, who was promoted after his ignominious retreat to Netherlands.

[I really admire the man]

Poots attended a McKenna football match in 2008, becoming the first DUP minister to attend a GAA fixture, long before Arlene Foster did.

Do I win a prize?

I really admire the man

??
But not Arlene Foster? What's the difference between one Unionist bigot or another?
So you'd ban all religion in schools? You'd run into trouble with Poots then since he believes all in says in the Bible.
I never knew he attended any sort of a GAA match.
Well, far play to him for doing so. He can't be, same as Foster, a totally bitter anti-Taig then.

Poots as minister attended that game. I don't admire him, but he is somewhat willing to do his job.
Foster as First Minister and Fermanagh MLA should have attended on the same basis, perhaps Stalford who attended with her deserves more credit

5 now Are:
Armaghaic
The pope
Ball hopper
Dai lama
Myself.   (As everyone does if they use. A mirror]
Chief rabbi

3rd rule:


Why 5


Close it now .   Politicians & golf.   Full f'ing stop

RULES (if original poster agrees):

1.No Sportspeople
2.No Politicians.

The second rule means I've to take out Joe Biden & put someone else in so:

THE POPE
Queen Elizabeth the second
THE CHIEF RABBI
DIA LAMA
Ball Hopper

Yes I admire The Pope & The Queen.  I also admire Arlene Foster.  How many GAA people have attended Remembrance Day over the years?   Loads, but maybe a larger % that are from faiths other than RC.  RD has been held for a long time.  I can't believe I have the type this.

True Detective
The Killing
The Crown
The Bridge
Faulty Tours

In that order.  Originals only.  No 2nd series crap

The Pope
The Queen
  The Chief Rabbi
    The Dal Lama
     The President

No particular order.   This thread definitely needs rules.

I'll suggest number 1:

Proper sportspeople (i.e.  not just games people) Olympic year and that... are not allowed

Are you saying they were sitting in 4th gear?

Not sure if it's been mentioned yet, but BallHopper deserves a mention.

I've been following his journey through his illness and treatment, and he's been a true inspiration.

I agree.  Read that.  Face it & deal with it.

please

Least of their problems.  If mine doesn't improve in next month there'll be a small claims class action.

Better than penalties

[Mine are evidence-based,]

I HAVE been involved in sports punditry for over 30 years.

By its nature, it's subjective; everybody has an opinion. Mine are evidence-based, whereas others pluck their sound bites from thin air

Hilarious. It's the way he tells them
