Hasn’t happened to me in the UK since you posted this (and prior it was happening pretty regularly the last couple of days)

it doesn't really matter what side of the fence you sit on, this is the equivalent of a high school sophomore potential 5-star committing to LSU and actually sticking to it, :lol:

I'm getting it too Chicken...I usually have it as a saved tab on my Safari browser in the UK, it's okay if I open a new tab/window, but if I try to refresh an already existing tab it happens.

Don't forget good ole Norfolk and the Broads (that's where I've lived for 25 years) and I love Norwich, it's a great small city, friendly, laid back, plenty of non-chain shops, etc.

I've lived in the UK for the past 20 years, and I honestly have no clue what all this is about...I travel around a lot for work, and I also visit the States regularly and I feel much safer in the UK than the average city in the US. I also like the way people treat each other here better.
Also on another note, the history of the UK (in particular England) is one of constant immigration and changing of peoples, from the vikings, romans, angles, saxons, normands, (French), jutes, etc. Lots of people have and will come and go out of this country.
Downvotes ahoy!

Feels like a mid-Spring training lineup.

Yes. And there are many in the UK (populace & government ) very bitter about it still. They want to be governed and judged by their EU masters. They suffer some fetish and desire to be controlled. Its collective Western civilization guilt run amok.
Explain to me what has improved in the UK since Brexit? I've lived here since 2004, and can literally see no benefit from leaving the EU...Health service strained more than ever (partly do to lack of European workers who were helping to keep it running), and no more free movement for Brits around the EU. All the promised "we will govern ourselves" BS - yet the conservatives literally just replaced EU laws with the same stuff.

I should probably edit my original title...I realise the US isn't giving anything to Russia, the better way for me to have stated it is how much do you stand back and let Russia take...

Imagine being this clueless.
I'm just curious...how much do you let Russia take - let's say the US backs away from it all, Europe isn't strong enough, and Russia takes all of Ukraine...(because despite what some of yall think, I think that is exactly what Putin will do). My question, is where is the line...does it stop with Ukraine or does the US let Russia run back into Eastern Europe?

It's clear reading the board what most here think of Ukraine. With Trump softening his position on Russia...what in your mind would be an acceptable outcome to end he war, ie, how much do you give to Russia - and what line do you draw in terms of further Russian advancement (either in Ukraine or other parts of Eastern Europe?)

The one biggest change you hope to see in 5 years...
Posted by StormTiger on 2/13/25 at 12:57 am
I'm curious what the biggest change you hope to see in 5 years time for your own life (that politics could improve)?
I live in rural England, so pretty disconnected from day to day life in the US these days, I do travel back occasionally and still have friends and family across the south.
Life here in rural eastern England is pretty peaceful/quiet. Living expenses is probably the biggest change I've seen over the last 5 years and I'd like to see some movement on that (but not hopeful I will here). But for yall back in the south, if you had to pick one thing that affects your day to day life to be improved in 5 years, what would it be?
