I think his reaction to not getting his own way is childish. He tweets like a petulant teenager bitching at the judges who have only told him 'no'. The American constitution is there to stop presidents turning into dictators. He's running the US now not his own business. He can't just do as he likes.

Heat meter readings for vigas biomass boiler
Duncansimpson replied to grahamc's topic in Firewood forum
Thanks for working that out for me! I was told I would burn about 30t a year but we always use more. I do keep it cranked up especially in the winter. -

We also burn around 45t of softwood every year which is much more than expected -

We heat 2 houses 100kw with 6000ltr accumulator and use around 250kw in summer and 450kw winter. Year average is 380kw -
I agree, you can certainly be concerned about immigration without being a racist. We should all be concerned about if only because so many people are. You are only a racist (imo) if you start dictating which colour, race or creed you want in, or don't want in.
-
But then you probably aren't a lawyer …

Another victory for the woolly headed lefties as dictator trump ban upheld. What is the world coming to?
-
That is certainly true, includes Libya, Tunisia, Egypt,Syria and a few more too. Doesn't mean it will happen here or that any of that any of the resident muslims who live here already want that kind of life or support it.
-
How do you work that one out!?! If George bush hadn't invaded Iraq 2nd time we certainly wouldn't have the problems we have now. He created a vacuum that has been filled by Isis that has spread like wildfire through the Arab spring.
-
No I can't name any Islamic countries that show any kind of tolerance to minority rights or even their own kind which is why I choose to live here. If I was a peace loving Muslim living happily in this country how do you think I would feel listening to the likes of you and trump.
-
Isis are a threat to European security,agreed. Muslims are not. Sadly its racist critters who are unable to differentiate between the two. As the federal judge pointed out to trumps advisor, not a single American has been killed by a national from any of the countries he has tried to ban. Why didn't he include Saudi Arabia I wonder? All 7/11 bomber hailed from that country.
-
We live in the west, a free society of people tolerant of all people regardless of creed colour or religion. If I didn't like it I could go and live somewhere else (not sure where!). 20 million muslims in Europe and you think we can't integrate.
-
I'm sure, it was tongue in cheek
-
It's the daily mail!
-
I never said they were. You're missing my point entirely.
-
I don't think kids shot in a school is gangster related…
-
I may have been inaccurate about the terrorist attacks (Boston was carried out by Chechens Orlando was homegrown not sure about your others), but 260,000 deaths from homegrown shootings shows he still has his priorities wrong.
-
There have been no deaths from terrorism in USA since 9/11. However there have been over 260,000 deaths from home grown shooters. Do any of you really think he's got his priorities right. His actions are decisive because he's targeting muslims, and as leader of the free world he should be promoting tolerance and inclusion. It's a wonder some of you sleep at night worrying about it all!
-
I find it baffling that trump wants to ban muslims yet refuses to carry out basic background checks on his own people wanting guns. 100,000 a year shot and 15,000 shot dead. The number of terrorists deaths in Europe has been below 200 for the last 2 years and considerably lower in previous years (maybe rising?), so out of a European population of 500,000,000 your chances of being killed in negligible. There are 20,000,000 muslims living in Europe in a fully integrated harmonious society, do any of you seriously believe they all want us dead? If they did we would know about it. I'm not stupid, I'm well aware that some certainly do, but they are few and far between.
-
If Scotland vote out and then join the EU they would have use the euro too. Plus a hard border to keep the pesky immigrants out of England. I don't think they would find it that easy. You never know, if we manage to stay in the single European market we will prob all be ok. We will prob all be ok anyway because I'm hoping those in charge won't be so stupid to steer our economy into the rocks.
-
As a remainer I can only hope you you say 'I told you so' in a couple of years! As with all these things, those who work hard and strive to be successful will continue to do well whatever happens and those who voted for change and think putting a cross on a piece of paper was all they needed to do will be disappointed I'm sure
-
I wouldn't call anyone a racist just because I didn't agree with their views. I would call them racist if I thought they were racist. Saying 'you only call me racist because you don't agree with me' doesn't really cut it with me. Incidentally, I don't think trump is racist but he's certainly paranoid.
-
I agree. Apparently it might have something to do with trade. Who cares about the Tibetans when we need cheap iPhones
-
The Chinese leader was given a state visit last year and what they have done in Tibet is 10x worse than trumps excesses. Although he is supposed to leader of the free world. Not sure how free it's becoming…
-
I'm all for him coming. If people don't like it they can line the streets in protest, then he can see how we feel.
