Sad news out of the UK, a coup d’état has lead to the removal of Prime Minister Boris Johnson from parliament. My thoughts and prayers are with our British friends, I hope the King is able to restore democracy soon.

Actually, you are correct.  A winning PM was thrown out for trivial reasons & replaced with a globalist loser.

According to some Italian media, Berlusconi is dead. Not a bad news for our country.

 

I'm only sorry for his family, but he was really a criminal.

Confirmed. Was he more or less of a criminal than any other Italian politician of that era, though?

I don't agree. He destroyed the Italian political panorama, destroyed the economy and let the fascists into the instructions. With his televisions, he has impoverished the Italian cultural panorama and has barbarized politics.

He had a dozens and dozens of trials, and I can continue for hours, with the "law at personam"

Beautiful hot sunny weather here in :GBR so at last all those many billions we have invested in solar panels are going to start to generate some serious electricity! :clap::champion:

 

Ermmmm......not quite, Prime Minister.  They ....aaaahhh....don't work all that well when it is sunny.  :(  Still, there's plenty coal!  :hyper:

What kind of cheap ass solar panels does the UK use? Texas routinely gets over 40° in the summer and it’s the biggest solar power producer in the US.

Not sure if it was the NOC or the biathlon federation (I assume the latter) that put him in the Livigno training 'world' with a former Italian biathlete as coach, but they can definitely also be blamed:  almost everyone involved in that shitshow got the motivation just sucked out of them by the methods and shitty atmosphere until they either retired or changed country

    • Lots of injuries, including often just pure bad-luck stuff like a fall from a set of stairs, illness, and of course the Sochi tragedy in 2014: one of her biathlon friends, young Julia Pieper, killed herself with a biathlon rifle early during the Olympics (she wasn't on the team, but was a training partner of both Preuss and Dahlmeier). Obviously a hard hit, which led to terrible Olympics for Preuss, with a DNF, awful results in her other individual races and a relay where she was the first runner for Germany, but fell early on, got snow in her rifle and broke a pole and ended up losing almost 3 minutes, which in turn resulted in Germany being off the podium for the first time ever.   After that came all the injuries and illness and everything. So glad to finally see her have her big individual global gold, that is so well deserved.
