    Sorry- USA does not rent Ascension Island! It has a resident British administrator- who represent the Governor of t Helena- to which ascension is part of. And Ascension has its own elected Assembly.
    USA has an Airbase there and it has been used also as a missile,test range- all under a treaty with Britain.

    But to set up an asylum Base there crazy expensive - I agree with Labour. same on St Helena. - daft thought.

    From a Brutish point of view..., Pretty Patel has got a valid point choosing Sta. Helena and Ascencion as apt detention points...

    Similar scheme has worked wonders for Ozztralia during the last couple of decades...
    Them Ozzie faaaar away prision Islands of Nauru..., Manus and Merry Christmas do a magnificent job in discouraging all them potential smelly brownish foreigners out there...

    From an Argie point of view..., though..., I Think Pretty Patel should seriously consider the Islas Malvinas/Falkland as an adequate Detention Center...

    There are already a lot of White troops in place down here to controll that low instincts storm that sooner or later will surface from that murky uncivilized Good Man Fridays and Tarzans motley crew...

    Capisce...?

    Notwithstanding that this is just an investigative process, the Argentine will probably seize the opportunity to be off to the UN to complain, yet again, about British colonialism, zones of ‘peace, piratical usurpation and all the usual drivel that it goes on about. I wonder why no one wants to seek asylum in Argentina?

    It is the first time that I enter this site, it strikes me that a second-line population of a power such as England does not understand their situation. Continue in that line that you will continue being what you are ... simply slaves ... I am Swiss and I have lived in Argentina for 18 years ... I am happy ... it is a country that despite its mistakes has an environment that gratifies me day by day ... be happy !.... this is the end ...

    South Georgia Island is breathtakingly beautiful and has several abandoned buildings ideal or converting to relocation centers. Immigrants could each be given a free parka and a complementary cookbook on preparing penguins and seals.

    Perhaps Norway could also help out with a relocation center at Bouvet Island.

    What do I really know — because I'm just a contrarian small farmer living far away from what is a very divided country.

    An appropriate quote for Mr. Nate Silver : “There three types of lies — lies, damn lies and statistics.”

    Two shipping merchants along with a select few friends have wagered nearly 5 cases betting that a 78 year old senile political hack will be the next president of the most powerful country on earth.

    The presidency is not won by popular vote, but instead by the Electorial college — and Trump will win. (There is a second alternative — if there is a voting by mail quagmire — the vote is decided by a simple one vote per state where Trump only has to win 26 state votes.)

    In any case, Americans will continue to buy increasing amounts of avocados and my miscalculation will only cost less than five cases and a bit of humility.

    My humility is so great, it brings a sense of how humble I deservedly demand to be recognized.

    What has brought a shadow upon me is the news that Trump has tested COVID19 positive.

    Hopefully he remains asymptomatic as I did when it was discovered to have antigens from a previous asymptomatic infection. (Both Madame and my youngest daughter tested positive as well.)

    Asymptomatic..., you...?

    Are you suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure...?

    Do you perhaps REMEMBER having told us about your Missus... your lovely youngest daughter and yourself being discovered to have antigens from a previous Covid infection....circa ten times in the last couple of months...?

    Whatever you construe — according to the tests, I was asymptomatic of a COVID19 type of virus as the two tests showed. None of us experienced any symptoms of a virual infection.

    My liver is doing perfectly well thank you very much!

    Terence Hill = Terry Fuckwitt

    The Fascist Cabal recognizes that the inflatable Lula doll in Terry Fuckwitt's lair needs replacement.

    In the spirit of sympathy, we have found a link for Terry to use his mother's credit card to order rapid shipment:
    https://www.amazon.co.uk/LOVE-VIBES-Inflatable-Vibrating-Penis/dp/B07M9BK72P

    You do what ever want as the burden is yours to refute the evidence of Terry's fang marks — but Fuckwitt will need to order a replacement.

    Lots of better luck with that one. Hopefully he'be more gentle, but his temper is uncontrollable.

    The link between what was an inflatable doll and its now plastic shreds on the basement floor, will remain unspoken.

    Hardly a crime that Terry murdered his lover, because dolls are one hundred percent outside the law.

    “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery that mediocrity can pay to greatness.” Oscar Wilde
    “Almost all absurdity of conduct arises from the imitation of those who we cannot resemble” Samuel Johnson

    Meanwhile I've now found that a documentary was made about Terry Fuckwitt's exciting lifestyle for the readers her.

    I will post it the next time the convicted child porn criminal posts another idiotic post.

    “Although I've defended Pinochet despite his regrettable actions...I support nationalists that are willing to protect their nation ...”
    Ah! criminal libeller, there's a sure sign of deficit of intelligence if ever there was one. Kanazawa quotes from two surveys that support the hypothesis that liberals are more intelligent. One is the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health, which is often called Add Health. The other is the General Social Survey (GSS). The Add Health study shows that the mean IQ of adolescents who identify themselves as “very liberal” is 106, compared with a mean IQ of 95 for those calling themselves “very conservative.” The Add Health study is huge — more than 20,000 kids — and this difference is highly statistically significant.”

    G Ü E Ó N

    Güeón — Terence Hill has routinely beaten, prodded, stabbed , mutilated, and mistreated his poor inflatable sex dolls that are confined to his basement so small that they can barely move. Then they're brutalized without mercy—often while his other sex dolls watch. From the time they arrive by delivery until the day they're killed by Terence, the dolls are denied all dignity which is natural and important to them. 

    Your special relationship with Terence — will ease the suffering of both patched Long Dong Silver and a deflated Lula will be eternally grateful

    Güeón — please pay attention. Knowing your very special character — I again would greatly recommend the knowledgable and quote filled Terence Hill as a very suitable partner who has an exciting and dynamic entertaining lifestyle:

    Although he's an unemployed VIRGIN living in his mother's BASEMENT, you can't deny he'd make a marvelous significant partner that could educate you in weird Latin quotations and he has an incredible appreciation of inflatable sex toys.

    I think you Güeón and Terence would indeed be a marvelous matched odd pair!

    Save Terence's sex dolls from misery! Terence is your perfect match!
