I watched bits of the trump inauguration it was so funny to see her and the others faces as trump stood up for it. Personally the only genuine person I think on that side was Biden because l think he was used a scape goat. They knew he wasn't all there and they used him for there own political means because of how much so many liked him. I don't mean It in a bad way but it was good that his illness started showing publicly so that they couldn't hide it from the American people. 

The Democrats lied to our faces and had no problem doing so, regarding the mental state of Joe Biden.

Anyone who has followed politics here knows and understands exactly who and what Joe Biden was throughout his career. He is a career influence peddler and politician for sale. He employed the most acidic rhetoric to his adversaries at the same time he was doing what he accused them of doing. He is a serial liar and this has been proven on video literally dozens of times. The Democrats lied, knew he was a liar and a crook who could be used for their political purposes. And they did exactly that.

The Democrat Party was ruled by Obama during Trump’s first term. Bidens term was actually a third term for Obama. He set the agenda and the vast majority of the people in the Biden administration were former Obama staffers. This cabal of gangsters and traitors have fleeced our treasury and grifted the country out of multiple billions of dollars. The green agenda in America is the same as the one for The UK and Europe and it is intended to destroy our economy’s and combine all nations under the same umbrella of global economic oversight. Not to any benefit to the ruled people.

The British people have to be quite vocal and not exactly polite. It’s your lives that are being affected and you are being taxed to pay for it! 
If you are being forced to pay into the “system”, as we all are, then you should have an actual say about what you are paying for. The time has arrived to take a good look at the Scot’s attitude towards subservience and emulate them. The history books provide a good overview and reference for their position.

I would say that the brits of old are the best example for the uk to be exactly like, the biggest part of the uk since ww2 has allowed its self to be stepped on and it's been passed down too much ( don't say anything it's nothing to do with you ) well if wasn't for the old before ww2 though we'd all be speaking a diffrent language by now.. to mention that ( it was said the third reich would arise again ) and it seems that has come true in the form of a party that claims to be calling others racist / facist and everything else they are if you simply don't agree with them and just tow the line because that's exactly how the ***** did things.

I saw this part yesterday ( l saw 2 notifications but thought it was a case of you'd removed a previous comment n rewrote it ) l have to say I've not bothered properly about politics properly till Labour started taking the mickey n destroying Britain faster than a bullet train. I had never heard of Biden before this time of him being the president hence me thinking they had just used him ( where now given what you've said it's possible that all the dementia moves he pulled could have been a sly move to realising that they wasn't going to get in the next term so would be a good move to cover his own ***** n look like what l thought for when his term ended ? ) whose going to look at him in a bad way if it looked he didn't have control.of his own actions. I know of Obama / bush's n hillary clinton and how they have all done what they could to keep America in wars. The 1 world rule was very obviously shown when the EU stepped back from stuff when they lost the American backing as trump came in n that shows now even more that they are doing nuke training because they think trump will say no to them for using America as the big brother against Russia in the Ukraine war 😂.. personally l wouldn't blame him if he did say no he's been the middle man trying to end it a few times already so if he walked n said to Russia it's not my problem anymore who could blame him. The EU and the British political party's have been keeping it going so it's there own fault they shouldn't have used America as the back up brother to get what they wanted.

John Swinney vows to block 'ludicrous' digital ID cards in Scotland......

That's very probably the only cleaver thing he's ever said. He realises that the chance of the SNP ever regaining the support it once enjoyed is zero. Now he's found something to get the general population of Scotland to support him.

 

John Swinney couldnae stop a sneeze! 

 

He's still banging on about independence even though they stand NO chance of a referendum in my lifetime!

Nobody mentions the UN. They are just a joke. That organization was captured by the globalist types many years ago and they have proven themselves to be nothing but hypocrites and incompetent fools. I see the building that houses the United Nations as a waste of riverfront property. A relative of mine, third cousin, is a NYPD officer. He was explaining how the diplomatic staff as well as diplomats have abused their diplomatic immunity in multiple ways over the years. Everything from double parking to using undue influence to get their way. Not all of them do that, but enough do so that it’s noticeable.

Yep the un definitely is beyond what it was meant to and definitely no longer fit for the purpose since the cold war ended. Like you say it was used by the globalists to there means to prop up the wars they need to keep going to keep there money flowing as proven in Africa and recently in Palestine and how ever many other times they was meant to be peace keepers.. we have that sort of thing happen here but they don't use diplomatic immunity they just out right say ( my family member or l am ) part of the police, mp or part of the religion of peace and its perfectly fine. I feel for your cousin given the immunity the immigrants have there in NYC it's just like the whole of britain.

Just received this email from LNER. Another reason to be concerned about data security:

Keeping Updated
 
Dear

We are getting in touch from the LNER Data Protection Team to tell you that a personal data breach has taken place.

What happened

On 8 September 2025 we were told that one of our suppliers, who manages our customer communication database, had suffered a security incident. A third-party gained unauthorised access to the supplier’s networks and in the process gained access to customer data.

As a result of our investigation of the breach so far, we have concluded that the data included some personal information, specifically your name and email address.

No payment card details, passwords or your LNER account information were involved. Our ticketing systems remain safe, and you can continue to buy tickets from LNER as normal.

Because your name and email address were affected, it’s possible you will receive phishing or scam messages.

What we're doing

We are continuing to work closely with our supplier, who has engaged independent security experts, to put enhanced security controls in place to minimise the risk of this happening again. We have also taken the following measures to address the breach:
  1. Reported the incident to the Information Commissioner’s Office on 9 September 2025;
  2. Notified the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), British Transport Police (BTP) and the Department for Transport;
  3. Paused certain communication channels temporarily as a precaution.
What you should do
  1. Remain vigilant against phishing or scam attempts, including unexpected communications asking for personal or financial information.
  2. Don’t click on links or download attachments in suspicious emails.
  3. Be aware that phishing attempts may appear to come from LNER when they have not. Emails sent from LNER will end in @lner.co.uk or @email.lner.co.uk; threat actors may try to imitate this with similar characters, for example, using the number 1 instead of the letter L. You can contact us at [email protected] if you are in doubt about whether an email or message comes from LNER.
Although we understand that password information has not been affected, we also suggest that you maintain a secure password and change your password regularly. Remember that we will never ask you to provide us with your password.

Contact us

We have set up a dedicated mailbox - [email protected] - for questions about this incident. It goes directly to our Data Protection Officer, John.


Yours sincerely,
LNER Data Protection Team

What the politicians say is less important than what they do. That’s a pretty safe assumption regardless of where you are in the world.

That is so very true. Given now that we have the start of the digital id now out and also it's very funny how the great man himself is allowing people of his own religion to be banned from going to watch there own football team because the religion of peace says so and the police agree ( to listen to it you'd believe it was the isreali people who was the problem and that's why they was banned ) turned out it was because the religion of peace went out in Amsterdam ( using the terminology of our secretary of State who's religion is the religion of peace ) isreali bashing in force and filmed it. It's very hypocritical of a man who only not long ago said we need to protect the Jewish faith from antisemitics after they was attacked on there biggest religious day by the religion of peace.

When you look into the origins of the definition of “the religion of peace “ you will find some interesting incongruity about that.

Same as you will find many strange inconsistencies in Sharia law and English common law. Many people who pick up pay checks to study and lecture about these matters have found the two to be quite incompatible for a modern, functional society.

Yep there is way too many incompatible inconsistencies between our laws, it has shown so many diffrent times and so many diffrent ways that the English law at the moment means nothing unless you are holding the right people's hand and from what ive been seeing it wont be that long before America has the same problem. as the Muslims of old said they came here to escape the world of sharia law only for it to follow and there kids to be beaten with it telling them it's there religion to follow it.

I know we can't always believe the BBC these days, but this story is probably true😀:

Council calls for scrapping of ID cards plan

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c8jrnllvkmlo

 

This is creeping in by the back door. All company directors and shareholders need to verify their identity on the Gov.Uk One Login, which is the system that they are proposing to use for the identity card (without a card) system.

As time goes on they will replace other government systems like the Government Gateway with the same One Login. If you need to send stuff to HMRC or Companies House or verify your right to work or claim benefits or open a bank account or have a passport they will insist that you verify your identity using the One system. Issuing us with a One (no card) identity will be no problem because they will already have the details of almost everyone in the country in a massive database.

Ah, but you just changed the words. What the BBC did was more subtle (and I suggest more dangerous) by editing the actual words but not as they were originally spoken.
