  1. I could never be a politician and say such obviously stupid things like this with a straight face.

  2. And if he doesn’t (and he doesn’t) what exactly are you going to do? Tut a bit? Shake your head?

    It’s like Tony Blair never left, although hopefully we won’t get dragged into it this time.

    So does the UK government accept Keir Starmer’s wife is a legitimate military target for our enemies?

    If not then why the double standard?

    how about the UK looks at its own justification for homelessness, poverty, living conditions, cost of living, poor NHS.

    Double speak!
    Double standards.

    I bet they didn’t ask Putin for legal justifications when he invaded Ukraine.

    This is why the West is increasingly headed to global irrelevancy.

    Equivocally not condemning Trump’s war against a sovereign nation plays into and make mockery of all the West condemnation of Putin.

    You think Trump gives a shit about ‘legal justification’? He’s running the most powerful nation on earth lmao.

    He won’t, because he doesn’t give a shit about what the UK thinks about him, or about international law.

    Also, there is no legal justification. There’s no ICC warrant out for him, the US does not participate in the ICC, and I don’t think even a warrant allows kidnappings from sovereign territory.

  8. Darren making himself and UK look like idiots again, really hope Delta have a few hours spare while in Gloucestershire for a quick pick up job

  9. The refusal to condemn a blatantly illegal action by Trump (by international law) is going to look really fucking bad when they annex the country so their oil companies can rape it (their already stated goal).

    Sorry, does anyone genuinely think Trump gives a shit about the rule of law, or that he believes it applies to him?

    Darren jones is a complete joke. He looked promising 2 years ago. Incredible how quickly they switch up when they get into office.

    Venuzela is rich with oil its the only reason they did it.

    They can lie it’s about drugs but they come from Mexico and they don’t care about the reason people take drugs. Mental health issues cause people to take drugs but they don’t care about that

    Venezuela has petrol/ gasoline.

    China was buying most of it.

    Maduro was anti-US, like his late mentor, Hugo Chavez.

    Venezuela is 2000 miles south of New Orleans.

    What makes you think Trump’s ever given a **** about legal justifications for anything he’s ever done?
