You say that, but in one of the recent votes (I forget which) he actually attracted a high number of republican voting latinos. Basically a lot of the older generation who are settled and established in the US actually don't want more and more coming in.

Kasich isn't bad. Rubio is definitely very hard core right-wing. Cruz is horrible and Donald Trump is the most dangerous.

Yes, not condemning the KKK on Sunday was a new low. The things is, I don't even know if he really has any sympathy for white supremacists or if he is simply willing to pander to anyone to get elected.


I have no idea who he really is besides someone willing to do and say anything for power which I find the most dangerous thing of all.

200m inheritance is not to be sniffed at though.


Obviously I'm not American so don't know all the nuances of the American elctoral system but am inclined to agree LondonM that Trump strikes me too as someone who would ignore protcol and rules. He's basically a bully. The White House is no place for him.

Its a large inheritance and his claims that his is a billionaire could very well be false. A large part of his estimated wealth is his own estimate of the value of his Trump brand which he license out to be used for a fee. He has lost lawsuits against people who have claimed that his wealth is in the millions rather than billions.

As a person of Asian heritage I find this man offensive and frightening, I'm shocked that in 2016 he is getting any supporters, he appears to be tapping into and leaching the increasing fears of the American public and using it to exacerbate the division of views


In my view there is no place for an individual with those view in modern society

London Mix - on the UK betting markets Clinton is now 1/2 on for the Presidency, Trump 2/1 and Sanders 12/1...the latter 's odds demonstrates just how deluded the liberal 'intelligensia' of Social Media are if my news feed is anything to go by. I am going to lump on a reasonable sum on Clinton.

No it's not a fun spectator sport, it's a terrifying thought, globally.

    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
    • Was anyone else disturbed last night/early hours this morning by the party going on in someone’s garden on Crystal Palace road. Can’t see what house exactly but it’s around number 43 - 41… it was happening quite frequently last year. Seems it’s starting again! Very inconsiderate.
