I can't believe the Trump thread had now descended into relitigating Brexit. What are the positive things about Brexit? Nothing. Few diehards are still grimly trying to put lipstick on the pig, but don't do it here. If you are going to try and put lipstick on a pig, I can think of very few thread titles more appropriate than this one.....

So you think that nobody should have the right to challenge something they consider to have been conducted unlawfully / criminally / unconstitutionally? Really? Think about what you're saying. I know you read all the anti-brexit blogs etc but please do stand back and think about it. I agree with you - I also want IN to the EU but I would never think about persuading myself that it would be legitimate to override an election in the UK because I think that is what is going on. I think folk like yourself hate the concept of Brexit so much that you've persuaded yourself it must be so wrong that you have hoodwinked _yourself_ into believing the legitimacy of your position. Starmer wins - I don't question it and have a lot of faith in the old dears and not so old dears who work tirelessly in the polling stations and Counts. If Corbyn had won I'd certainly have accepted it. If someone won on a ticket of banning cars and planes I'd suck it up. As an afterthought, I also blame this terrible "hard" brexit that was won partly on the people who tried to stop it. Johnson wouldn't have needed to whip up Brexiteers with a hard-brexit policy in 2019 had it not been for all the Guy Fawkes style treacherous behaviour taking place in our parliament. Also Theresa May would have found it easier to have implemented something rather softer without all the attempts by people like Starmer to reverse the vote. More interesting than this history, is what Starmer plans to do re the EU I wonder. Despite all the nods to the contrary, will free movement be back on the agenda? You misrepresent my position. In many posts I've been highly critical of almost every aspect of Brexit. Indeed, I think it's the greatest act of national self-harm this country has every inflicted upon itself. But you won't find a single comment from me suggesting that I don't accept the result of the referendum. You won't find a single comment from me suggesting that we should seek, in my lifetime, to rejoin the EU. However, this country has routes of challenge, appeal, change and redress for a reason. I will not deny those routes to others who feel differently to me, whether we're talking about Brexit, Lucy Letby or... the Horizon scandal. The fact that they exist does not guarantee their employment, nor does it guarantee their success. The fact that the opportunity to employ them exists is important. Now, back to Trump...

DJT has announced plans to launch a new cryptocurrency platform that he claims will challenge the dominance of “big banks” and take on “financial elites”.
My question, are transactions really cheaper than any FPS, debit card transaction? UAE definitely wants to make it as the Crypto hub on the planet.
Sending money via swift is bloody expensive.

It is disgusting that so many people have put their own opinions above that of the democratic system itself. I would certainly support any investigation into anyone who has wilfully attempted to subvert democracy. Which, of course, is precisely what the Miller court cases were doing - ensuring that our elected representatives in parliament had a say. No more, no less.

Trump 45000 NFT collection is a disaster for their collectors. Now he’s launching 4th series.

Sending money via swift is bloody expensive. are you sure? Link? I know he has launched yet another set of "digital trading cards" that include at least one of him holding a crystal ball with a bitcoin symbol in it. But I've not seen anything that says he has announced the launch of a grifto-crypto currency. Yet.

If anyone is stupid enough to invest in a business of a criminal with a chest full of bankruptcy medals and bone spurs then they should invest in his social media platform. It's a sure fire winner and the shares are getting cheaper every week. Thumbs up.

I haven’t read anything about the average IQ of big crypto “ investors”. But the average IQ in many states across the US is below 100, the Trump supporter types perhaps

Trump has never sent me any post card, but I cant remeber the “leaflet” was delivered to my address at the time.
So I Say a big NO like 99%, I certainly dont recognise any content in the leaflet either.
Without any proof of delivery, how do we the Gov had a strong plan to get those leaflets delivered without fail?
Would the first pass the post change the outcome of the referendum? 😅

LOL this in a country where checks ( what we call cheques are still common ) Where most rent and Mortgage payments are by check Where a good proportion of people are paid by check that they then have to deposit where kids in senior school are taught how to balance a check book where many people don't have an ATM card they go into the bank with a cheque made out to cash ! they don't really need crypto they need to come past the 1970s

This is class! "Quantities are limited so act fast"! Fortunately for those who bought DJT stock at $80, there are these valuable NFTs to fall back on. The official site:- collecttrumpcards.com/
