Have we got nothing better to think about than Greenland??

It’s huge news.

it will essentially start ww3. It will go against nato. International laws.

it’s huge.

Or councils that need tanking

I'm in Denmark. I was being sarcastic. As I've explained uptread. Should have been clearer. But the ignorance of the post annoyed me to no end.

@Mranke
We are not part of The The European Union (EU) which is an economic and political union of 27 countries, and operates an internal (or single) market . We left that as you are aware.

We ARE a European Country though when it comes to the Geography and other Alliances We are members of NATO for example. We are in a crisis currently, because a power hungry, megalomaniac apparently is unable to make any rational decisions. If things escalate, we will be in danger like everyone else. This COULD lead to ww3 - so yes, we should want to see the news about it.

Trump is blowing up things which have kept most of the Western world safe for the last almost 80 years. Of course thinking people are very concerned as to where this is all going.

You forgot one!

…..and racist….our massively unequal society is caused by 0.7% powerless asylum seekers 🤦‍♀️

….this is the same NHS in OPs and others minds that believed the big bus promises….a fantasy one…not the one starved of resources by lobby groups that want to privatise it and fools who think austerity is a route to healthy communities

Are you one of those who says we ‘left Europe’ instead of ‘left the EU’ ?

He's already been given:

1 Serena Williams Wimbledon Ladies Single final shield
2 A brain from the Scarecrow in Wizard of Oz
3 A trophy from the dog who won Crufts
4 The last World Cup
5 President Obama's Nobel Peace Prize (so now he has two)
6 Conchita Wurst's Eurovision trophy
7 Willy Wonka's Golden Ticket

(All according to Facebook memes anyway ;) )

Firstly I'm quite capable of thinking about 2 things at once. Secondly, Greenland is a territory of Denmark and consequently Greenland and Denmark might have a different opinion over who governs it. I'm sure the UK would love it if another nation decides to annex us.

Wasn't that a bit silly of you? After all those promises Britain hasn't moved one inch centimetre.

Is this your mum’s account?

The NHS is mostly only for emergencies now.

You were not an emergency and had the option of going private if you wanted a faster service.

We are lucky we have the NHS but the UK population need to start helping themselves by taking out private medical insurance or paying for private as and when they need it.

That's it, pull up the ladder babe. 😎

Where do you think we are located OP?

The edge of the flat earth?

What next maybe trump will think that the Shetlands should be become American to secure the north Atlantic. Afterall they were given to us by Norway so not really British...

And some of those countries hadn't even realised they were at war! They were probably even more grateful to the Orange One because of this. Let's give him all the Nobel Prizes there have ever been, he deserves them.

Sarcasm is a thing. But well done for calling me names.

Trump Maths. Or Math I suppose!

OP have you ever taken a history lesson

Written by one of the American right wing apologists that seem to be all over MN lately for some reason.

Of course any issue that's likely to create a national security threat is a major news story. America is showing us - repeatedly - that they can no longer be trusted as an ally. Trump is willy-waving to a ridiculous level and clearly wants to see what he can get away with just helping himself to. If we don't put a stop to it, that'll be us somewhere down the line.

There are, believe it or not, more important things in the world than the NHS.

Absolutely

I don’t think OP is going to have that much historical knowledge TBH. The situation is horribly similar.

We are in Europe 🤦‍♀️
Guessing you went to the same geography classes as the Orange Toddler. One of his reasons for wanting Greenland is he says Putin wants it and says he doesn’t want Russia to be that close to the USA !! He obviously doesn’t know where Alaska is 🤦‍♀️ The Bering Strait anyone ?!!
