Just realised how easy it is to get from my gaffe to Turnberry... And the weather's fine as well. Might go for a walk later.

Now the Orange Oaf has decided to interfere in domestic UK politics. If May were not the gutless incompetent that she is, then she would terminate his visit to this country immediately and order the departure of him and his entourage.



She should follow the example of Lester Pearson, who in 1967, encouraged Charles de Gaulle to leave Canada following his "vive le Quebec livre" speech in Montreal.
No, by taking such action, she would lower this country to the non-diplomatic, conceited, ignorant, etc attitude of Trump. Did you hear the interview on 'Today' this morning with a man well up in the diplomacy side of things who explained clearly why the visit must go ahead as planned?

Anyway, I reckon the Queen will give him a look which will put im  in his place! :)

She certainly would if he tried to get touchy feely with her. ;D

If you look in a dictionary at what "slag off" means you will discover that nowhere in the interview does he do that; ironically it's you who is slagging him off!

To slag off means to criticise and he was criticising May in no uncertain terms. I make no apologies for criticising that ghastly man who is a danger to our planet.

slag somebody ↔ off phrasal verb British English informal
to criticize someone in an unpleasant way, especially when this is unfair
He’s always slagging her off behind her back.

He said nuclear weapons are the biggest problem the world has. That maybe one day they could be eliminated for good.

He says a lot of things then the next second the idiot retracts them, like when he was threatening to nuke North Korea.

I don't swear, on or off forum....but some of the posters in Glasgow's George square last night were brilliant. There's a phrase we use here to indicate that, basically, we're all the same under the skin, to which a protester added.... the banner said as follows; "We're a' Jock Tamson's bairns... Except Trump - he's a b*****d" Well, someone knows the meaning of the word, then......

I wonder why illegitimacy is still considered a swear word.

Especially as Jesus was supposedly the illegitimate son of god.

The French call William the Conqueror “William the Bastard”, mainly because he was illegitimate but also partly because he was a bastard.

Do the anti Trump protests actually achieve anything? They must cost a lot in terms of resources.

Peaceful protest is a necessary part of democracy.

And while I agree, not sure that's what Rhiannon was getting at. In proper Life of Brian terms we have to have the right to peaceful protest but that doesn't mean any, or all actually achieve anything. With the Trump protests, I don't really see what was being aimed at.

I see that Trump has blamed the bad relationship between U.S. and Russian 'many years of U.S. foolishness and stupidity'. And the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has agreed.

Trump seems to have built bridges with North Korea and with Russia. That's more than his predecessors did.

I guess a bit of brusque action is better than a lot of sophisticated... talk...talk...
