Notice how the "doctor" comes out with a lot of woolly double-speak but gives no detail as to what she believes the "right" approach would have been.

I never could understand the old saying "This will hurt me a lot more than it will hurt you son".
If it's done the trick then well done Dad. However I don't believe that it's the morning run that will have the desired effect it is the humiliation and subsequent ribbing that he will feel when his mates all find out. Humiliation speeding up the learning curve on almost every occasion.

I must say I could happily round up half a dozen 'staff' from the other 'place' and force em to do that to show what happens to bullies. Much more bullying mentality than the intellectual mentality over there as most of us are well aware. :poop: Might render one or two down a bit too. :imp:

Doctor needs to tell all crap that to the parents of the bully. Better still see how she handles it when her kids run away from school because they are terrified of being bullied and the teachers / governers either won't or daren't do anything about it.

I've no idea what the outcome of all this will be but fair play for actually doing something. The down side of Human nature dictates that the lefties and snowflakes which you refer to will give no credit and hate Trump even more. Any success to come from it would of course be demeaning for them wouldn't it?

Could trump do what the rest failed to do? If he does watch as the left blame trump for letting Kim off for human rights abuses etc......

Looks like the pressure is telling on Kim.
I bet the contemptible BBC are absolutely gutted. This is the first time in over 2 years I've seen them post a Trump-related article on their website that isn't a character assassination. They'll have to really flood the thing with their pro-women articles if Trump manages to broker a disarmament deal.

Indeed..... 'Chuck enough mud' editing with a left wing bias.

I have no idea whether the Trump-Kim meeting will have a positive outcome. But Trump has a couple advantages that no other president enjoyed. One, a set of massive cajones. Two, the brains to ignore the so-called experts. Between the two he’s putting a lot of pressure on China, such as tariffs which will only be lifted for our friends and/or national security of the USA, something our neo-con free traders of both parties never had the brains or guts to consider as they were blinded by either self-interest or ideology.

Though at first impression it looks to be a disadvantage in reality Trump has another advantage in that he has no ability to kick the can down the road, as have past presidents. He will resolve the situation, peacefully or violently, because he has to. Kim knows this and knows that volence will only end with him dead in a ditch (Qaddafi) or at the end of a rope (Saddam). The violence alternative is far worse for Kim than it is Trump.

The luvvies on BBC radio today have been saying the only winner is Kim as he has drawn Trump into a no win situation, penny still not dropped that Trump has moved the goal posts

As if by magic less than 24 hours later......

https://www.theguardian.com/comment...ald-trump-deal-kim-jung-un-north-korea-regime

The author of course offers no alternative, but for those that can't be arsed to read it or refuse to click on a guardian link here you go.

"In doing so he also risks legitimising, and indeed subsidising, one of the most appalling regimes in the world. Ever. So far the Kim family, governing a country of some 20 million, is reportedly responsible for the deaths of 7 million people. A deal with the Kim family could mean ruling out support for any potential internal opposition or an alternative leadership.

So would it be a good thing if Trump did succeed with a “deal”, and the Democratic People’s Republic of North Korea survived? Surely not. We owe the North Korean people a way of escaping from this odious regime."

Pathetic.

Should put em in the UFC cage and have a death match on ppv ha
A guy called Russell Braddon once wrote a book called "The Year Of the Angry Rabbit".
I first read it in 1960 something, and read it every 10 - 15 years.
Basically, Australia becomes the world super power and, guess what Abs, they force governments at war to solve their problems by fighting in the deserts of Australia, but it's not the troops, it's the politicians and generals that have to do it.

Google Russell Braddon, ex Changi POW, could never come to like the Japanese after that. iirc he worked and lived in the UK for the rest of his life.
I liked some of his political solutions in the book.

Here's a synopsis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Year_of_the_Angry_Rabbit
