I know the Scots, Wales and NI are involved too. The Scots may end up part of the EU if what I understand could happen if they vote accordingly.

Steve Posted December 30, 2019 Report Share Posted December 30, 2019 Thanks BB, but you can blame all of the American media. I rarely if ever watch Fox and when I do its to see what the narrative is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted December 31, 2019 Report Share Posted December 31, 2019 A few of my female friends are Markle fans and can't seem to understand why there seems to be animosity towards her. I don't know what specifically they don't like. I hear rumors of overspending but then the rumors are refuted elsewhere. I'm not a fan of hers per se. I liked the tv show Suits she was in but not really a fan of hers personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted January 1, 2020 Report Share Posted January 1, 2020 Here's one take on her, but it basically seems to come down to the fact that she is not British! https://wfc.tv/en/articles/selebrity/why-does-everyone-hate-meghan-markle Sort of like the Americans who love immigrants ... unless they happen to be married to Donald Trump.

Flashermac Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 Britain condemns Tehran's arrest of UK ambassador Rob Macaire was detained after attending a vigil for those who died when a passenger plane was shot down on Wednesday. He left when it turned into a protest before being arrested and accused of helping to organise the demonstrations. Mr Macaire denied taking part in the protests in a tweet on Sunday. He said he was attending the vigil because it was "normal to want to pay respects", adding that some of the victims were British. The ambassador added: "Arresting diplomats is of course illegal, in all countries." In a statement, Mr Raab said: "The arrest of our Ambassador in Tehran without grounds or explanation is a flagrant violation of international law. "The Iranian government is at a cross-roads moment. It can continue its march towards pariah status with all the political and economic isolation that entails, or take steps to deescalate tensions and engage in a diplomatic path forwards." Mr Macaire was arrested and held for three hours when he stopped at a barber shop for a haircut on his way back to the UK embassy. Under the Vienna Convention, diplomats cannot be detained. The Foreign Office is to demand a full explanation. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-51077897?fbclid=IwAR3fRL0DSEXEXMcOKKbpa08xefTPqDVokoBmYPDbx5lh39QOOO868WnZwPc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radioman Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 The expulsion of Iran's ambassador to the UK would seem an appropriate response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
