I think it was Mitch McConnell, leader of the senate Republicans.

He (said he) voted not guilty because he thinks Trump shouldn?t have been impeached in the first place.



Keano: ?Perhaps Nancy and her gang should now consider resigning??

Like you do when you?ve set-up a trial that found Trump 57-Guilty and 43-Not Guilty of inciting insurrection.

The record stands, Trump is Guilty.

Just the 2/3 required majority, which was not met, means he?s acquitted.

Republicans scared to vote against Trump, immediately after the vote Don Jr announces we?re coming to get those 7 senators. Demonstrating the fear being justified. Disgusting.

Perhaps this isn't the thread for it...but this whole sorry affair highlights extreme partisan nature of US politics (echoed in the UK of course along both party and brexit lines more recently)...does the Republican party have a future in its current form? Which also raises the question on the democrats as well...which also raises the broader question of party politics in places like the UK, where both major parties are plagued by factionalism within their respective parties.


It's seems in our modern world, when narrow interest groups (at all ends of the political spectrum) often make the most noise, there is little room for 'moderates' with broad appeal when it comes to almost any issue....


(As I say, perhaps off topic a bit, but I can't be bothered starting a new thread right now!)

All valid and pertinent points, Cat.

Interesting how some Rep senators, pre-election, repeatedly branded the Dems ?far left, extreme left, left wing radicals?. When actually the Dems are Right wing, if anything.

They just are not extreme like some of the Rep senators.

It?d take some doing to be further right than the Reps now !

Or maybe she'll just avoid his hand when he tries to hold it as she usually does.


I suspect this will come back to bite the republicans at some stage.

No just the whole thing of allowing Trump to get a way with it.


I still think she'll stay with him ... even if she's unhappy (and she must be how could anyone be happy living with him). which is sad.

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
