Trump's got a dysfunctional brain - it's time they retired him and let him build a White House out of Lego and play with his toy soldiers! :smile:

My hatred of Musk has just been elevated even further. I know he had, on and off, let the Ukraine military use his Starlink satellite system but I didn't know that he was letting Russian soldiers use it too! Musk and Trump have got a lot of blood on their hands...

Was it planned to be on his birthday!
Did the four car loads of detectives that did the deed, sing a chorus of Happy Birthday to him before feeling his collar?
I do hope so. :smile:

PS - Gordon Brown's five page memoto the Thames Valley Chief Constable and others, is a bit strange. Reminds me of Billy Bunter "it wasn't me that stole Mauleverer's cake" when no one had accused him. :smile:

PPS - I think none of this woud have happened but for the death of QEII. She shielded Andrew, and bought him out of trouble. They say now that she lent him seven millons of the twelve millions that he payed to a woman he had never met. The monarchy will be lucky to survive in its present form. Andrew Lownie is working on a book about Prince Philip. There was an unwritten agreement that the press did not publish all of his behaviours.

I think a voluntary DNA test on the whole gang would be interesting. 'If there's nothing to hide - there's nothing to fear.' as they say.

Andrew Mountbatten Windsor has denied any wrongdoing.

I had to switch to Al Jazeera News to get anything other than the constant speculation about AMW. No need to repeat everything ten times over.

I agree Ian....HERE'S something entirely unconnected....

When the police visited Ashley Warren's home in Jaywick, Essex, he told them his XL bully dogs were misunderstood, even suggesting they were less vicious than a poodle. Yet 10 days later, and two days after their ownership became illegal without a certificate of exemption, they mauled his mother-in-law to death. Esther Martin, 68, had been left in the property with the two dogs, eight puppies and a child while Warren filmed a music video in London on 3 February 2024. The amateur rapper was alerted to screams coming from his property in Hillman Avenue and demanded "someone that's strong, really strong" went immediately. But it was too late. Martin suffered "dozens and dozens" of catastrophic bites and was dead within minutes. Warren, 41, was arrested upon his return to Clacton railway station and became the first person in the UK to be charged with XL bully-related offences. He has now been found guilty of owning one of the dogs, called Bear, responsible for killing Martin. He was cleared of being in charge of the other dog, Beauty, which also injured Martin, but belonged to his girlfriend.

Astronomers already hate Elon Muskrat, he's going to make it practically impossible for them to carry out their research from Earth. Of course his response would be `When I set up my palace on the Moon you'll be able to do it even better from there (for a small fee of course!). In the meantime he's polluting Earth so that he can use it as an excuse for trying to put humans on other planets and moons...
`SpaceX rocket fireball linked to plume of polluting lithium' BBC
When a SpaceX rocket failure set the skies aflame over western Europe last February, no-one was sure if the debris was also polluting our atmosphere. Now scientists are directly linking the uncontrolled rocket re-entry to a plume of lithium measured less than 100km above Earth. It is the first time researchers have drawn a direct link between a known piece of space debris crashing to Earth and pollution levels. They warn that as SpaceX chief Elon Musk pledges to launch one million satellites in the coming years, this contamination could be the tip of the iceberg....
