For some reason there needs to be a vote in parliament ! While our politicians dither, the enemy within gets stronger…. Barry Gardiner, Labour MP, has just said the perpetrators are NOT terrorists, they are criminals, then backed down and said they MAY have committed a terrorist offence ! How in hell can you commit a terrorist offence, but NOT be a terrorist ?? Cheers.

I can dream , mate, but it’s my job to keep his feet firmly on the ground. He will get all the support I can give but as I’ve said, there’s a very high attrition with young footballers. Cheers.

If he makes the grade he will be sending a private jet for his old granddad ! Long way to go mate, only a very VERY small percentage make the grade, but he’s got his foot on the first rung of the ladder. Cheers.

Football is huge in Saudi. They are moving on from signing super star players at the end of their careers and now going for younger players with potential . My grandson did a months course here with FA and UEFA coaches and they were pleased with him and he picked up player of the week award. Who knows what will happen when he hits puberty ? LOL ! He may go in a completely different direction when girls come on the scene ! Cheers.

I said I a previous post that he is fluent in English and Arabic and was learning French. I know there is a very VERY high attrition in trainee footballers, but he is a very focused young lad. Early days, who knows, PSG might do all the hard work, then I get him to sign for Newcastle ! LOL ! Cheers.

Well, I must be the proudest grand dad in the world at the moment ! We got a call last night telling us our 10 year old grandson has had a trial for PSG , and he’s been accepted into their Academy in the Middle East for a 10 month intensive coaching course that could lead to a scholarship in Paris ! Very early days yet , but I’m as proud as Punch ! Cheers.

I don’t know yet, it’s not ‘till December. The lads have got a full schedule planned, coursing, ferreting, lamping, digging , hounds, fishing. My pal went last year and stayed at a farm. Cheers.

Last time I drove to Anglesey and got the ferry to Dublin and drove to Ballycommon because I had the dogs with me. This time I’ll fly from Newcastle to Belfast, under an hour and around £50. Rab is setting up my itinerary, hope to see Gerrard and the Armagh sniper, and the other lads. Dont forget, I’ll be 73 by then, you’ll have to cut me some slack ! LOL ! Get the Air Ambulance on speed dial ! LOL ! Cheers.

I lifted three sacks of chicken food this morning ! LOL ! Dont worry, I’ll be there, an hours flight to Ireland is like a walk in the park compared to some flights I’ve had ! But don’t forget you are doing any digging, I’m just an observer! LOL ! Cheers.

Sadly, Tony Blair scrapped the crime of Treason…. Cheers.

Probably for Russia ! PMSL ! Cheers.

Steve Baker has just said it’s an “act of sabotage in pursuit of political objectives”, the exact legal definition of a terrorist attack. Let’s see what happens to them. Cheers.

Protesters from “Palestine Action” last night broke into the UK’s biggest military airbase and sprayed paint into the jet engines of two RAF aircraft and escaped un- noticed ! Where were the security ? Where were the RAF Regiment ? Russia must be rolling around laughing at us ! No need for drones or Spetznas, just send in a couple of Palestine protesters! Farage is calling for “Palestine Action “ to be proscribed as a terrorist organisation, I’d say they are traitors. The head of security, base commander and last nights security detail are going to have to answer so

The paper is wrong. The “bunker buster “ bomb can be delivered by the B52. Cheers.

When I read what he posted I held my head in my hands and thought “ what have I told you about reading back what you are about to post before pressing the send button……..” Cheers.

Where are you ? I’m in Northumberland and my pal who gave me the cucumber plants is about 150 mile south of me and hers are way in front of mine, in fact everything I grow is months behind her stuff. First time I’ve tried to grow Kohl Rabi, it’s a brassica and the edible part is the bulb between the roots and the leaves, supposed to taste like a cross between cabbage and turnip. Cheers. -
Kohl Rabi bulbs forming; Two lots of garlic lifted; Melon cucumbers growing well; Cucumbers starting to show; Cheers.

I assumed it was the same as Jewish Zionism, the right of return of Jews to the Jewish homeland ? Cheers.

In the last few years the battle for hegemony over the Middle East has been between Iran and Saudi Arabia. The war in Yemen is a proxy war with Iran backing the insurgent Houthi and Saudi backing the Yemen Government. Irans proxies in the Middle East , Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthi, etc are hated by “moderate “ Arab nations like Jordan, Saudi, U.A.E., these nations who once backed the destruction of Isreal are now shooting down Iranian missiles heading for Isreal ! Its a very complex situation, always had been, and I certainly don’t have the answers, but making sure Iran doesn’t have

C’mon mate ! In the Six Day War alone, Israel defeated the combined militaries of Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Iraq. Every war they’ve fought they’ve won ! You’ll say they were backed by America, but the Arabs were backed by just about every Arab nation and supplied by the Russians. Isreal can’t lose a war, it would be the end of them. Iran’s stated aim is the complete destruction of Isreal. As I’ve said before, I’m an “Arabist”, ( not, I hasten to add, an Islamist !), but I think Isreal has the right to exist, a view most Arab nations are now adopting. Cheers.
-
Yes, but are Israel funding the terrorist groups I mentioned , to bomb Israel , or is it Iran funding them ? Allegiance’s and Allies change over time. Remember when Russia and China were our allies, and Germany and Japan were the enemies. Now the roles are reversed, Cheers.
-
So the Jews are funding Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthi to bomb Israel ……? Cheers.
-
They have huge oil reserves. Cheets.
-
Surely it’s Iran who is funding Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthi, ISIS, etc ? Cheers.

Consider the alternative; Saddam and Ghaddaffi realising the dream of the “Great Islamic Caliphate”, running from North Africa through the Middle East all the way to Indonesia. Controlling the majority of the worlds oil and gas reserves, controlling the Suez Canal, the Straits of Hormuz and the trade routes to the far east , being able to hold the industrialised West to ransom. That was never going to be allowed. Isreal is just another pawn in the ongoing “Great Game”, just as Afghanistan was since the 1800’s. The pieces move around the board, but the game remains the
