That drone should win a medal.

Well this is worrying…
US discussing options to acquire Greenland, including use of military, says White House https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cwyg1jg8xkmo

Bloody hell. Let's see how the Trump apologists justify getting behind this.

The interviewer said that it would seem her and Starmer (aka Tory and Labour) are if the same view with Venezuela and Greenland.

But she just kept going on about how he hadn’t done this and he only had fan photos of him with leaders yet she’d met Trump etc. when questioned when and where because she had only been at a state dinner he was the reasons was always “I’m LOtO”.

She was just all about “me me me” rather than how Tory and Labour could work together on this issue.

I’ve just heard an ex pupil is missing after getting/falling into the river at the weekend, so unlikely to have survived. He was a troubled boy with a difficult life but I liked him. Talented singer and actor. I’m very sad about it.

I’m really sorry to hear that Cardibach.

The US have the only military base on Greenland.
Greenland and the Danes are happy to cooperate with whatever the US has asked for.
Essentially the US already has military control of Greenland.
So it’s not about security.

That’s terrible news Cardi

So sorry Cardi.

Thank you all for the cat well wishes. He is ok.
@cardibachI am so sorry to hear about your ex pupil. That is such sad news.
In other news WTAF is that orange lunatic doing?!
I can’t wait to see how this works for all the “we need a president like Trump” patriots and of course Farage with his “my good friend who nearly died” address Trumps behaviour. Farage has been fairly quiet on the subject thus far… hmmm 🤔

Cardi, I am sorry to hear that. We bumped into one of my dc primary school teachers before Christmas who confessed to a soft spot for ds2.

I feel the same way about some of our dc club members and it is awful when you hear something bad has happened to any of them.

So sorry @cardibach, that brings back very sad memories This happened to a friend of DS1, this time of year too. He was only 17. Sadly it took weeks to find his body due to poor visibility. I hope his family and friends have a lot of support.

I’m so sorry cardi what terrible news

@cardibach really sorry to hear about your ex pupil, I worked in Early Years for many years and would be devastated to hear of something like this happening to one of the children I cared for,

I am so sorry @cardibach . It's been really treacherous out there.

So sorry cardi

That’s sad @cardibach - and such a waste
for you

That is awful @cardibach . So very sad.

Sorry @cardibach, I think I’ve seen it on the news. So sad.

Farage is launching his London campaign. Laila Cunningham has also been announced as the London mayoral candidate for 2028.

I think London will mostly tell Farage to eff off.

Bloody well hope so Pandora Leila Cunningham is very nasty individual.
Cardi I’m so very sorry so tragic 💐

Thanks all. It’s a hazard of teaching I think - he’s not the first experience of losing them I’ve had. It sounds like his family has good support from the news articles. Just such a waste.
