I'm expecting Trump to win, thanks to the alphabet and here's why.


A = Australian bush fires
B = Brexit
C = Covid-19
D = Donald Trump US president again.

Donald Trump nominated for Nobel Peace Prize - US president 'has done more than most'


The US President’s nomination came from right-wing Norwegian politician Christian Tybring-Gjeddee who praised Donald Trump for his efforts towards resolving conflicts worldwide. He particularly commended the President for his key role in the “historic peace agreement” between Israel and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

That's just crazy, I had the peace prize down as going to the BLM organizers ;)

Shows how my joined up thinking has failed :D

They may have been nominated too. You get a few hundred nominees every year I think.

Its not defending the police but directing some of the monies to other areas, where it is heavily needed. Such as social care, counselling etc... trying to prevent crime before it gets to the police.

No-one actually said to defend or get rid off the police all together. Just direct some dunding to areas it is much needed

Never defund police in an armed society - nor anywhere for that matter.

Well he's done more than Obama did, and he got one.

Will it be for all the progress on North Korea?

Your Google broken Hugh? :angel:

I am sure it's for the peace agreement between UAE and Israel.

Of course the Don has only been nominated, he has to win it yet, given the amount of people in the world with TDS, it will go to someone else more likely.

Obama got one in 2009, just for being elected U.S President that year.

I highly doubt he'll make the shortlist tbh. They're probably still embarrassed by awarding to Obama anyway.

What if instead of saying "defund the police", we instead say "reallocate funds to prevent crime"?

Same difference.

In what universe is this the same thing?

Defund the Police means they get no funds at all, reallocate funds to where else that combats crime, surely that's the function of an authoritative body, um, that's commonly known as the police?

Not necessarily. It means they get less funds.

Is it? Do the police decide their budget? Do the police write themselves a cheque each year?

I thought that was government that decided where public money went.
