How this individual, whose interests and skills don't seem to extend beyond set design, got to be political editor is baffling.

This is the modus operandi of Trump and the MAGA crowd, and Israeli government spokespeople too. Never answer the question, but aggressively accuse the questioner of bad faith.

I think that it would also make it easier for criminals to escape justice in the UK. Without a guarantee of the right to a fair trial here, they would have a very effective argument against extradition to this country.

He's proven to be a flight risk, so, hopefully, he'll be remanded into custody.

Without having gone into the report in detail, it does seem to have similarities to the research done by Hetherington and Weiler on right-wing authoritarianism and personality types in the USA.

I think turnout played a vital part, too. 30% voted for Harris, 31% voted for Trump, and 37% didn't vote.
Hetherington and Weiler's research on authoritarian personality types and USA voting patterns is a very good insight into why Trump won.

Ah, the good old days when us nippers were physically assaulted because we didn't use bad language, shoplift, or be cheeky!

It was the Falkland Islands that saved Thatcher. All the jingoistic flag waving afterwards, which she neatly exploited

It's not just the chlorinated chicken. It's the increased levels of rat hair and faeces in flour, increased levels of insect parts and larvae in corn, and higher levels of blood and pus in milk and dairy products.
And the higher levels of reported food poisoning that occurs in the USA.
