If people don't want to pay tax to make this country function and help out the rest of society and particularly those who need help most... then maybe they should move to Dubai and stop bleating about it. Really sick to death of it.

This. It has always been this. A sitting American president did this. And because he did this, he should have been convicted and put behind bars. And the fact that we never held him accountable for these crimes will forever stain this country. And we may never recover from it.👇

We definitely need lots of rain (but only overnight, please!!!!🤣). It was 2-2 draw. Probably a fair result overall, although his team very nearly scored a 3rd goal in the dying seconds of the game. Goalie scrambled it off the goal line. The first goals were each team were superb.

In the UK our judges and our public prosecutors are not elected so there is a separation of the state from the creation of laws to carrying them out. We do see due process here - most of the time, something that seems to be lacking, quite often from the other side of the Atlantic…

The rich would prefer you to believe that the "free market" is subject to the immutable law of supply and demand. But for years, the wealthy and powerful have manipulated the market for their own gain. There is nothing “free” about it. Watch.
