Of course I engaged him in conversation and he was his usual eccentric self, telling me all about Venus waining and mars rising when my pal butted in and asked “yes, but what about Uranus ? “. Old Patrick never missed a beat and replied “much as it ever was dear boy, but it does get a bit temperamental with age !”. I guess he’d been asked that one many times, but he still played along. Cheers. I'm bald as a billiard ball. I was outside a bar in Spain and a young girl was cutting and braiding hair. There was a small crowd of onlookers admiring the results of her styling. Thinking I was being a comedian, I asked how much she would charge for braiding my hair. She didn't even look up but said I'll cut your hair and your throat for nothing senor. Cheeky bitch, I wrote to the ambassador re_ uppity degos Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The new female director of the special service said in a interview a year or two ago she was going to try and get the percentage of women. Up to 30% and hire more diverse set of people. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Born Hunter 17,763 Posted July 16 Report Share Posted July 16 I wonder if Don trusts the USSS now or if he has the option to build his own private security team. They could probably pull together a very decent team given his supporter base. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Borr 6,018 Posted July 16 Report Share Posted July 16 I think it's safe to say that was the golden bullet , it'll win trump the election. Biden is off again tonight he'll be ousted if the Dems can come up with another candidate. As said trump had a good week outside of the bullet through the lug. It will reinforce trump supporters, swing those on the fence and may bring the bible belt into voting for the chosen one... Be interesting whether Farage's political career is bolstered by his relationship with trump , appears the republican party isn't too keen on labour especially khan who publicly slated trump and in doing so about 170,000,000 Americans... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But my point is that in selecting for diversity they are not selecting for quality . So in having diversity as one of the points in selecting agents they have picked bad ones . So I think diversity is the problem 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
