We can only watch & see what happens, no use worrying .life is short enough as it is . :-)

Quite why you stated all that about me Rollo...well who knows other than you....for the record I neither use Twitter nor go on alt.right whatever that might be. Why bring the West wing into it?? And what meme did I use??
I said he'll get his bottom smacked but you're fine with the status quo...oh well we can agree to disagree...well I can...as Barbra said we can only watch and see...which is what I've always said anyway!!

Wait n see, don't worry, can do nothing was pretty much UK consensus 30 Sep 1938. Of course there were dissenters such as W S Churchill.

LOL give me a break....now you're comparing Brexit to pre WW2...

We are now in 2017 .me thinks if the powers that be want to blow themselves up, .they will have very sophisticated weapons now ..the issues are much bigger than we can understand ..why scare monger & I say again why worry .I have a new fridge freezer filled up as from yesterday .so hope we live long enough to enjoy our contents . :-) Barbra ( Hello Caroline ) :-)

Hi Barbra...remember we are but mere mortals :-D

Edit and may your fridge freezer always be full to overflowing..

This is the war and peace thread Caroline not brexit.

Quite how Trump is to run diplomacy without a functioning State Dept is quite a puzzle. Even Tillerson is fed up.

I know it is the silly season but sending the Marines to Caracas sounds a bit off the page.

Still the Americans have some nifty gunboats. Let's hope the Donald does not decide to play with them at Bath time.

Actually it's the Fire and Fury thread Rollo and yes you're right you've actually not mentioned Brexit on this thread yet miracles do happen.....I'm just so used to you always comparing everything to it...that said how you can truly say this is the same as pre WW2..well...so at what point do we in the west wake up and say enough is enough with regards NK? Yes maybe right now they can not do all they threaten to do but do we wait until they prove they can or do we stop them sooner? Whilst you're answering that maybe you'd like to explain why you always assume I'm a white supremacist?

We are just mere Mortals & have opinions on every subject under the Sun as is our human right .so if I want to say .Issues are bigger than we understand .I will do & I dont want to engage in tit for tat comments from other.s on here .going in the garden now to enjoy nice sunny evening Bye Barbara :-D

Barbra is it a feature of you browser to drop full stops all over the place?
It does not do much for the readability of your posts which are usually interesting.

'North Korea is a menace to the peace & stability of Asia but bombing it into submission is not the answer. The US must steer a careful path'.

(From today's Times Newspaper.)

Sleep tight.

Yeah Barbra please write clearly in future nothing worse than bad spelling and full stops everywhere :-D

....but apparently 'text' talk is okay, as are silly abbreviations - but only when used by Rollo, as and when it suits!!
Strangely no text talk in this weeks pseud's corner!

Edit: Yes, there's one in his comment below.
Standards slipping again, Rollo?
The words pot/kettle/black and hypocrite come to mind. :-P

Is Caroline a white supremacist?

The idea had never crossed my mind until she herself raised it. In the UK at least it is possible to support right wing politics without being racist. Indeed some leading the Tories are people of color. Some of them are the best bet for a new leader which both the Tories and the country need badly.

Otoh current events suggest that there is a great deal wrong with Ukip. In the state of Virginia white supremacists are rampant unhindered by the police. Yet so far as Caroline has commented on such matters she is v def not racist.

Does her white horse mean anything? I have wondered if she is an admirer of Gandalf's horse Shadowfax def not a supporter of the dark side.

So there it sits, an odd question.

I hope Trump listens to his close advisors who are politicians and diplomats.

If Trump ever gets around to building the wall that featured in his campaign

Will Trump own the company that builds it ?

Dear Rollo .when one is talking to an intelligent person as you obviously are they can decipher the post to read as they may .Barbra ;-)

You do make me laugh Rollo, one minute you sway one way then the next you really should stand for a seat somewhere. We all know when you start insulting someone you'll infer away to your hearts content....Bless.

Trump doesn't listen to anyone, and even if he does, if he doesn't like what he hears he fires them!
As for so called refugees, where are they going to live? Yes, Canada is a big country but they don't want to live in northern Canada, they want to live in the cities, there is enough people trying to live stuffed into Montreal, Quebec City, Vancouver etc. Most of them aren't refugees in the first place, they are just people fleeing from America before Donald can kick them out. The people walking across the border last winter had NOTHING, these people have suitcases, money, good clothes. No these people should be sent back to Haiti and try to come in the regular way, not force their way in cause Donald is scary.
How do we know that North Korea does not have nuclear warheads??? Maybe they do. The only way we'll find out is when they shoot it at us,, hopefully the states will be able to stop it, but what if they miss we are all dead. I don't what to die right now, maybe I want to live for ever, but not now.

It's okay Rollo said nothing will happen.
