The unredacted emails haven't been verified yet, but Schumer seems pretty sure of the content of them. If they are true, then they are pretty damning for Trump, as they show clearly that it was Trump who sanctioned the hold of the aid to Ukraine, and more importantly, he knew it was illegal. It also put Mulvaney in the frame, and there is now no denying Pence and Pompeo also knew, along with other senior officials.A few developments tonight in the US re emails that seem to place the decision to place Ukrainian aid on hold - firmly at the door of POTUS. Becoming clear whatever the merits of the case The White House have certainly been obstructing any investigation. I think as Watergate proved - lawyers are bigger liars than politicians.
So if a lot of private landlords sold their properties, would that not mean that houses would again be more affordable to buy? - as they were before buy to let became so profitable and forced up prices....@Bigga You appear to be in denial mode about what happened over here last month, that rant mirrors the same stuff that
you got so wrong then, but like the others on the left, still stick with it, despite it being very unpopular, and subsequently rejected.
Yes, this claptrap is certainly crazy, so you're right about something. Rent controls, despite your convoluted justification,
result in less rented property. If someone has bought a property for rent, he/she will have decided what they need to charge
to both pay the mortgage, or recoup the capital, plus repairs etc; Let's say this is £600pm, a tenant comes in, applies to
the rent tribunal, and gets it reduced to £400, as this is now no longer viable for the owner, they then do their damndest to eject
the tenant and sell ASAP. This is exactly what happened in the UK. Add to this the fact that buy to let would stop overnight,
because of rent controls.
Ideology is fine, reality bites.
Yes, the billionaires will pay for everything, of course they will,
Only they won't, so what do you do then?
Ah, this old chestnut, yes I agree with the claim you make, everyone does.
Tell us how it would be done, because nobody has managed it yet.
Please yourself mate, I've noticed this rattle throwing a few times, get nasty if you like.
What was it Trump said about Obama starting a war with Iran?
If this is true, it's a game changer in the Middle East....
Look, I know not "all" billionaires are 'evil', but as we all know, they're not all angels and for the most part, there's a reason why they do what they do.
I actually found a really good breakdown behind the 'charity' reason for most of them...
And the reply from the Republicans and the White House?It's impossible to understate just how astonishingly stupid a decision it is to assassinate the second most powerful man in Iran. So brainless in fact that I find it extremely difficult to believe that this was an intentional assassination of General Soleimani. The US has repeatedly stated that it didn't want war with Iran. It has now guaranteed a massive Iranian retaliation against Americans (and not just military). Scores of Americans will die because of this reckless act of murder. The repercussions for the region are unfathomable.
