It might have been stupid, but it wasn't wrong. Businesses are allowed to be stupid in a free country.

Total tosh as usual.

Brexit had wealthy backers, just like Remain. Brexit won.

More sour grapes from desperate people who wish to besmirch their opponents. Completely typical of the usual suspects. They drag Trump through the courts on ridiculous charges and accuse him of all sorts. They deluge GB News and its presenters with all kinds of accusations and smears.

The same sort of people who brought you 'all Brexiters are racists and stupid'.

Get back in your cave. You are the problem.

By that comment you clearly don’t know or understand the demographics of Sevenoaks.

It is most definitely not just property value millionaires and the fact that somewhere like Sevenoaks voted so emphatically to Leave was very significant.

Brexit did have some wealthy backers, some of whom I suspect may be regretting it. Other whose wealth seemed to have arrived overnight.

There are more appropriate threads to discuss the charges facing Trump but for anyone to describe them as ridiculous, when he did much of what he stands accused of in plain sight, is ridiculous itself.

I see no unjustified accusations against GB News or its presenters. By its own admission it is not a real news outlet, so the criticism is both acceptable and fair.

I heard no one say that “all Brexiteers are racists and stupid”. Only that some are. Which is undoubtedly true.

Is this not a thread about Mr Toad and his private banking troubles?

Coutts is just a jumped up footballers bank anyway.

The real money goes to places like C. Hoare & Co. (puns aplenty)

Did you know? 98.0000001% of people are morons.

Coutts is OK to keep a few million to hand. Cash is rather infra dig but my local won't take Amex Black so needs must.

It’s clearly you who needs to pay attention.

Do you understand how things like this really work in the USA?

This isn’t the special prosecutor indicting Trump. He just gathers and presents the evidence. It’s a grand jury of Trump’s peers who reviews that evidence and decides if there is a case to answer.

Apparently there are 84 witness statements in that evidence. All of them Republicans. Not one Democrat. That’s pretty smart thinking by the prosecution.

Now Trump has been warned by the Judge about making threats, which he openly did again immediately afterwards. She won’t tolerate being threatened and he could be jailed tomorrow.

This could get very nasty very quickly. This man’s a real danger to life.

Rather dismissive of Labour policy prior to the 1990s.

I mean, he definitely deserves some investigation based on available information and well documented behaviour/actions.

As for what’s trumped up and what’s not - I’m sure there’s extras thrown in for fun, one would be naive to think otherwise, but that doesn’t mean he shouldn’t be heading to trial for some of the things he did.

Taking a position that he’s completely innocent and any charges brought are baseless, well that sounds very parrot I mean partisan to me.

Maybe he banks at Coutts

Posting a second time as worth saying twice

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.
