I love this. I will be using it as a punchline with my nerdy friends.

Close Cooperation with eachother. The USA can no longer be seen as a reliable partner with its wild ideological swings and a lack of strong commitment to the cause.

Make or break for a strong European State.

From a UK perspective we're absolutely fucked due to Brexit. USA is unreliable, detached from the EU, what's left? BRICS? Lol.

Shit.

Seeing a lot of stupid chat about the potential handball by Calafiori last night.

People don't know the rules of the game:

"a player is hit on the hand/arm by the ball from a team mates kick/header

This is not a handball"

It took me like 2 minutes to Google IFAB's rules.

In the context of a NLD, I'd be annoyed if that had been given against one of our guys.

Vicario, bentancur, Timber, saliba... don't think any were deserving of yellows.

Some absolutely bizarre bookings in this half.

Sigh. It's obvious what Trump was doing here.

He making a play to regain the childless cat lady vote.

It's fine, she said in an interview afterwards that her next career move is fulfilling a lifetime ambition of joining the circus. So the spot is still open.

He had been incorrectly identified as a terrorist and an imminent threat. The fuck up was not the person who fired the gun but whoever gave him the order.

Another Brit here, yes cops do get punished in high profile cases with video evidence such as this.

The contradictory examples listed above were quite complex cases from what I remember.

That said, as a teenager a friend of mine was beaten up in a police van in a case of mistaken identity. He was advised by his lawyer to drop the case as there was little chance of proving what happened as the police had smashed up his phone which he had been recording them with.

Due to the context of police officers being injured prior to what's shown on tape. I expect in this instance, the cop to get a lenient pushiment.

This is me, too. I run a dual Sim on my phone for this reason. I've always been good at ignoring things after hours unless motivated by self interest.
