Why Is The British Media Showing So Much Negativity Towards The Possible Peace Talks Between President Trump And Kim Jong-Un?

[anotheoldgit]

They repeat the insults that each other have made towards each other and even mentioning Trump's association with a prostitute, whatever that has got to do with matters.

Why even our government seem eager to to place the blame on President Putin for the chemical attack on the Russian spy and his daughter, when they have as much proof than they have regarding it being a Islamic terrorist attack.

Don't they want to improve relations with these two countries?

Because good news is no news. You must have noticed a negative, sensationalist bias in the British press before now AOG? Most of your posts are based on it, after all.

whatever has what the government thinks about russia got to do with how the press are reporting about NK?

[ichkeria]

Do you have a link supporting your allegation about Trump and Kim?
Similarly the Salisbury poisoning. The government has gone out of its way not to blame anyone yet. Personally if it turns out not to have been Russian terrorists but Islamic terrorists I’ll smear myself in V agent, don a burqa and start singing Ed Sheehan songs. But then I’m not the government.

Must have been the little-known Isis counter terror operatives. Of course, the fact that they're little known shows how good they are.

V agent ?

[Zacs-Master]

Any chance of some links demonstrating exactly what you mean, AOG?

[ichkeria]

V agent? A class of nerve agent used to kill the Korean chap at that airport. He was apparently smeared with the stuff.

ZM has it, good news ain't news! TBH though I can't see what they can achieve, I mean haircut ain't going to give up his despotery is he? Still better they are rabbiting than scrapping.

I hardly like to ask which one is haircut.

[ladybirder]

LOL Jno. Take your pick!

Whatever else he's done Donald Trump has certainly shaken the world up. I too,think that the British Media could have shown much more of a positive approach to the meeting with Kim-Jong-Un.

Re the VE competition of 10:15, I'm not suggesting that the putative contestants couldn't be strong contestants in more than one category.

[Zacs-Master]

I do AOG, but I haven’t seen the bias you’re claiming.

[The Russian spy poisoning] // they have as much proof than they have regarding it being a Islamic terrorist attack. //

That is a new one on me. Do you have a link ?

[THECORBYLOON]

ANOTHEOLDGIT, have any experts suggested Islamic terrorists were involved in the attempted murder of the former spy?

What reasons would Islamic terrorists have for trying to murder the former spy?
