Trump is inching himself into the lead again and looks like winning. The best guide are bookmakers’ odds.
https://www.oddschecker.com/politics/us-politics/us-presidential-election/winnerVery good article in the I newspaper here. Tells it like it is.
I just don’t get why some people are prepared to cast far and wide for arguments to somehow justify or at least play down the Hamas attack of 7 October, which has also proved disastrous for Palestinian workers.
Bit of a damp squib in Swansea too. About 150 anti-racists, who we were able to leaflet, followed later by less than half that number of far rightists. But kept well separated by movable railings and a significant police presence. Passed off with a few speeches and a bit of music. One of the far-rightists was displaying a large picture of Donald Trump. I mentioned that to a friend, a non-Party member, whose response was ‘that says everything’. I couldn’t not agree.
I sort of don’t think what’s happening in Russia will happen in the UK. Russia has that ‘default to autocracy’ which makes it much easier for it to happen and to be enforced there.
I thought we were talking about this particual situation. But if we want to widen it, but hasn’t Russia also done quite a bit of invading and bombing ‘in recent decades’?
If there’s any realism at all in Putin’s mind, he must know that, if he can’t even walk over little Ukraaine (it’s over 2 years now), what chance would he have against NATO.
