Yes

election results are very important aren’t they?

Has anyone else found their Facebook feed full of by election results for all types of tiny council seats ? God knows what I looked at to get caught in this never loop of nonsense.

It's a clip from April, but still very relevant.

Here's a historical picture from Trump's first term when Zelenskyy was still riding on the wave of being the cheeky chappie from the telly. Am I imagining things, but is he sneering? Not the best of looks, especially if he took that attitude with his bigger and dangerous neighbour

I think you're seeing things that aren't there, he's not sneering, he's just looking at him

Looks to me like he is about to laugh

Did you think of watching the video before posting this utter nonsense?

History repeating itself?

An excerpt from Winston Churchill's reply to Herr Hitler after he proposed a ''peace plan' for Britain

Herr Hitler,

Your message has been received, its contents have been read, considered and dismissed.

You propose that Britain should extinguish her Air Force, scuttle her navy and stand idle while Europe is carved up like a Sunday joint. You ask that we cast aside a thousand years of duty, honour and civilisation so that your tyranny may remain undisturbed. Let us state with a clarity you cannot mistake:

Britain will not kneel, Britain will not yield, Britain will never under any circumstance disarm at the command of a conqueror. You may keep your ink and paper, they will not serve you. Your 'new order' is not the future of Europe but the passing  storm of a violent hour. The British Empire has faced greater tempests than you, and after each one the sun has risen upon our flag still flying. You may believe that we stand alone. We stand upon rock - upon the unconquerable spirit of free men and women.

That's what Ukraine and most of Europe are saying, while Trump encourages them to respond "Ok. We surrender".

Imagine letting a clear dislike of a political figure skew and blind your view on an illegal invasion and subsequent fall out this much 🤦‍♂️

It would be even more amazing if Churchill ever actually wrote this 😁

It's a good job I don't have a Putin-esque character as language such as yours can start wars

You're going on about being offended by someone's expression in a photograph, you fucking moron.

Not even a photo as well. A still from a video.

Anything can look how you want it to in a freeze frame.

And it doesn't even look like what he thinks it does anyway 🤦‍♂️

It would,there are so many slightly different versions, some also state hat he did not reply personally to Hitler,  I would expect one o f his staff would have done it for him

Indeed. I presume even @athywhite1958doesn't really think Churchill wrote that.

I presume it's the sort of thing that you could post on Twitter/X, and within a few minutes, Patriots all over the place would be sharing and liking and claiming it's some of Churchills finest work, and how we could do with him in charge now etc

True, there is apparently no instance of Churchill (or any of his staff, on his behalf) penning a letter to old Adolf. Presumably because he knew it would be a colossal waste of time

TBF, you said the same about Sir Sadiq about 6 years ago. Those skeletons never came out of the closet.

Did you donate my £100 winnings to WWays, in the end? 

Yes. Think it was the last time I spoke to Happy before he sadly passed away, as we were working on his house. It either went into the running of the site or into the fund raiser for Mike Hunt's lovely daughter, as I seem to recall we put 2 separate decent chunks for some reason into that fundraising, though that seemed longer than 6 years ago
