drug deaths in Scotland: 1,187 in the whole of 2018
It's a big problem but that's less than 3 days of Covid deaths in the whole of UK.
She‘s not had a good Coronavirus response though. Scotland isn’t exactly a beacon of excellence regarding how to deal with COVID.

I don't get any of this vfr, what's it got to do with Joe Biden what his daft son got up to?
In Hunter's laptop are emails about crooked deals that mention how they'll divvy up the profits. In the list is 10% for the big guy. Tony Bobuliniski was one of the recipients of the email. He confirmed that the big guy was Joe Biden, so JB has been caught doing crooked things.

That's not really the problem for him. The problem is that the dems never intended him to be President. They only put him up as a temporary stooge to get elected. Kamala would have had no chance to get elected. Soon after he's inaugurated, they'll get rid of him. The original plan was to remove him on health/competence grounds because he has dementia, but now they have an easier route via evidence of crookedness in his whole family, including him. I explained a bit about that a month ago. Nancy Palosi was trying to pass a bill to make it easy to remove the President if he was not considered able to do the job. Everybody thought that it was about getting rid of Trump if he got elected, but it was for Biden, who they were sure was going to get elected. They want to put Kamala in because they can control her. Biden is well established and has his own friends with their own agendas. When I say the dems, it's not the traditional dems, but the same Great Reset multi-billionaires and elites that are trying to control the world. Biden isn't really part of that, which is why he would have to go.

Time to go and do your homework. As I keep telling you. Nothing is as it seems, nor what you're being told by the press, media and big tech, which are all owned by the Great Reset multi-billionaires.

I have no doubt but people in the GoP will go after anything and anyone. At the moment they are in a frenzy. None of the motions to the SC make sense, GoP Congressmen are being pressured by elements of their party to link themselves with the motion to the SC..with the WARNing that P.Trump will be supplied with the list of supporters .. you know the Christmas list of who is naughty and nice .
At the moment about 100 GoP congressmen have linked themselves , and there are some 14 States which have linked themselves to the motion, but 21 states ,in addition to the 4 "defendants " ,have linked themselves to the defence.
My expectation is that by Saturday evening, the SC will say ..Its none of our business, how a State conducts an election , provided it is consistent with their law. And we find no case to answer.
I further suspect that it will be early March when the shame hits those GoP Congressmen and Senators as in "how could I have been so blind?""
It's not the GOP going after him. See my previous posts.

What have these GOP congressmen got to fear unless Trump becomes the President. Is that a possibility then?

Stupid comment of the day from vfr400
Three more weeks and Brexit will be over. Only a complete pillock would take that point of view.
That is when Brexit will actually begin and a long drawn out process that will eventually lead to us re-joining the EU
Only a mentally retarded person would have that view. You're looking through Brexit derangement blinkers and not seeing the bigger picture.

It's not just the deaths though is it? It's a measure of the extent of the drugs problem. There are many thousands more that didn't die, and they not only suffer misery themselves, but they cause misery to many more thousands of people affected by what they do. I know many people, who have been victims of drug addicts in one way or another. Do they try and break into your shop or home? I guarantee that's what would happen if you were in Edinburgh or Glasgow.

The US Supreme Court has rejected an unprecedented attempt to throw out election results in four battleground states that was backed by President Donald Trump.

The lawsuit, filed this week by the state of Texas, sought to invalidate results in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

President-elect Joe Biden won all four.

The lawsuit was supported by 19 state attorneys general and 127 Republican members of Congress.

But the Supreme Court ruled on Friday that Texas did not have legal standing to bring the case, in a brief order rejecting the bid.

... Seems ,I was right, while it is still Friday in the USA, it is Saturday on this side of the pond., But I will admit its about 14 hours earlier than I might have expected.. And for exactly the reason I had identified...

Texas denied for lack of standing

The court's order Friday night was unsigned, and court did not provide a vote count, but there were no dissents to the order made public.
In its short order, the court said that Texas had not demonstrated that it had the legal right to bring the suit because it had not demonstrated a "judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections."
The order states: "The State of Texas's motion for leave to file a bill of complaint is denied for lack of standing under Article III of the Constitution. Texas has not demonstrated a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections. All other pending motions are dismissed as moot."
In a statement accompanying the order, Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas said they would have allowed the case to be filed, but would grant no other relief.
"Even Justice Thomas and Alito, who might otherwise have been sympathetic to these challenges, went out of their way to express that they would grant no relief on the merits," Vladeck said.
"Not only did the Court reject Texas's effort to challenge the results in four battleground states, but it did so on a ground that will prevent any other states from doing so," Vladeck added.
Another big loss for Trump

Firstly vfr there is no Great Reset, I keep telling you that. It's a conspiracy theory that it's going happen without anyone realising it but of course it's like the world will end theory, when it does which it will do one day it will end for all. A Great Reset would also reset the re-setters if that makes sense, it's like capturing the City in a war then burning it down which coincidently is what Trump is doing. He won't come back in four years the Reps wouldn't want him again, too much of a loose canon so he's wrecking whatever he can while he has the chance.

As for Biden having dementia that's an old chestnut they said that about Reagan and Hilary Clinton, Maggi Thatcher came in for some stick as well IIRC. Trump hasn't fared too well either, In the states 350 mental health professionals submitted a letter to Congress last year claiming that the president’s mental health was deteriorating and so it goes on, par for the course.
Mind you I agree Biden won't be there long, Harris will take over at the first chance she gets with the full consent of Biden I'm sure...it's in the bag already.
The Laptop thing I try to keep an open mind on, if we were to believe even a fraction of what it's supposed to contain it would be more than explosive. But does America really care I wonder, I doubt if they do.

Despite the Goldwater rule:

The Goldwater rule is Section 7 in the American Psychiatric Association's (APA) Principles of Medical Ethics, which states that it is unethical for psychiatrists to give a professional opinion about public figures whom they have not examined in person, and from whom they have not obtained consent to discuss their mental health in public statements.

And agreed about the laptop thing. That so many voted for someone who usually couldn't give a damn about legality except inasmuch it can be bent to his desire, suggests an awful lot can be ignored.

Amazing how right wing idiots attribute their own faults to others.
Just what advantage will Brexit ever be except to the rich?
Will it benefit the public?

What a jolly day for Johnson
In the Guardian
"
UK government 'has underestimated takeup for Hong Kong resettlement scheme'
Survey finds more than 600,000 may want to move to Britain, many within two years of January start date
Around three-quarters of those planning a move hold university degrees and earn salaries well above the city’s average, so will be well positioned to contribute to the British economy. But few have family in Britain and only half have friends here, so they may need help settling and integrating. Three-quarters plan to travel with children, so schools need to be prepared for an influx of students, the group said.


Bang go all the great jobs Brexit was going to bring to the English public eh?

Sorry, I shouldn't laugh, but to hell with that! :D

Did they find a copy of a second referendum bill?

I wonder what an opinion poll would now say?

Date(s) conductedRightWrongUndecidedLeadSampleConducted byPolling type

Notes
4–5 Aug 202039%49%12%10%1,606YouGovOnline
No change.
The most noticeable aspect of current opinion poll is how bad the government is handling brexit:

Bad: 64
Well: 23
Don't know: 13

and generally, people still like extending the transition and blame the conservatives' attitude for no deal.

as predicted, SCOTUS threw out yesterday Trump's attempt to win the election through the US Supreme Court.
Perhaps Nigel and vfr will now leave the subject alone.

"I doubt it," said the Carpenter,
And shed a bitter tear.

And, unfortunately:
“The case wasn’t rejected on the merits, the case was rejected on standing,” Giuliani said Friday during an appearance on Newsmax TV’s “Stinchfield.”

“The answer to that is to bring the case now in the district court by the president, by some of the electors, alleging the same facts where there would be standing and therefore get a hearing.”
Says all that as if he knew full well they didn't have standing but went ahead anyway. They will go on and on.
