I think he's really struggling at the moment, his ratings are down, his handling of the Covid19 and the Black Lives Matter protests were abysmal. Whist he was ranting on Twitter about Antifa etc the Democrats were playing a blinder showing empathy to all and sundry in the Black community.
Is Trump a busted flush?
Trump is used to being the story. When his profile dips for a few days, he pops up to say something appalling & inflammatory to bring all the attention back to himself again. The problem he now has is that the pandemic and the BLM movement are both way bigger deals than he is. And he doesn't know how to handle it. His base will rally at some point to support him again. But at the moment I agree that he looks irrelevant & marginalised. |

In December Johnson told us he had "an oven-ready Brexit deal"; in January (instead of preparing for COVID-19) he was celebrating the "great" deal he had negotiated with the EU; now he is insisting the EU is being intransigent because he wants to renegotiate his "brilliant" "oven-ready" deal. Lying then or lying now? (Obviously, probably both)
Boris Johnson is going to be in so much trouble when Boris Johnson realises that Boris Johnson negotiated the dreadful that Boris Johnson is now having to extract us from. |

Perhaps he confused the oven with the bin, afterall when ones' housekeeper cannot attend due to COVID-19 guidelines, one has to use said appliances without aid (or should that be aide?)

The whole thing is out of control on both sides now.
If there is any protest in London on Saturday it’s going to get very messy with veterans and EDL idiots like Tommy Robinson going to protect monuments such as Churchill’s memorial. The police have put themselves in a ridiculous situation now as if they move on or get heavy handed with the ‘far right’ as they Daily Mail are describing them then it’s going to get reported as prejudice against white people. This is the problem when the police get too touchy feely rather than just doing their job, they set themselves up for a massive fall!
I’ve always said going after the Churchill memorial and things like the Cenotaph was the worst thing BLM could do for their cause and unfortunately I think we will soon see the results!

If it follows the path of the USA, they will gradually evolve into much more peaceful occasions.

Definitely not a problem with racism in this country, no idea what all the fuss is about! Nice to see the commonly used, if you don't like it go away, argument being deployed, shouting why don't you go back to Africa at a load of white people protesting was a particular high point. https://www.hertfordshiremercury.co.uk/news/hertfordshire-news/black-lives-matter-shocking-video-4207130 |

Do you mean that you think racism does not exist in this country, or do you mean that racism exists and you agree with it? |

I think, and pretty sure that Horlock was being sarcastic and does know that racism is (unfortunately) rife in the UK.
