      The shooter intended to harm Kirk. Just because some think he did the world a favour that does not change.

      The report overnight news that Trump's visit is costing us millions for his security. Another Black Hole on the horizon ? It would seem that his main intent is to persuade the UK to accept the import of more US dairy products despite the fact that these often do not meet UK evironmental or animal welfare standards.

        I find most sentencing by judges a bit iffy, but often there are circumstances that come out that we dont hear about, having said that judges are a law unto themselves and rarely get ticked off.

        Didn't this woman have other kids taken away from here?
        I think she is a mental to be honest.

        Four others taken into care, though not at birth, I believe.

        I agree we don't know everything but the judge also stipulated she must serve at least two thirds of her sentence. Yet, violent offenders are getting out after a third in some cases. :dunno:

        Probably hoping she will be too old to have any more kids when she gets out.
        What they did was diabolical.

        There are undoubtedly many things we aren't hearing about that case @pete, but I'm assuming you've never given birth...
        It isn't as easy as many people think it is. Also, if you've never been coerced, bullied, threatened and/or manipulated by a partner that supposedly loves you, it's also easy to overlook the circumstances of that woman's situation. I'm not defending her as such, I'm just saying it's easy to judge.

        Meanwhile, this was on our evening news yesterday. Sigh...

              At least Putin now knows that F35s can't fly when it's cloudy. :biggrin:

                  You’d think they could have stretched the cost to include an apostrophe. :mute:

                    I heard it was down to the wind being above Health and Safety limits for take off or landing.
                    Those F35s are a lot more expensive than the Red Arrows planes.
                    Putin now knows to attack in the windy wet season between September and March.

                      They have never used an apostrophe; perhaps because being founded by two brothers so Clarks.
