Labour ?Saves? Grangemouth Oil Refinery From its Own Net Zero Policies Thu Dec 18, 2025 07:00 | Ben Pile
The Government boasts it's "saved" Grangemouth oil refinery and "500 jobs". But what about the 320,000 jobs lost since Labour came to power, asks Ben Pile. Subsidies can't prop up forever an economy ravaged by Net Zero.

The people who are attempting to talk to the rebels are abandoning the mission,
Geneva/France/Spain are involved in working together- unfortunately Sarkozy's self-publicising
gung-ho ego-trip shite is not helping anyone (and obviously thats why Spanish and
Swiss negotiators were brought in)
Ingrid is a private individual, who many will say has endured a tremendous amount
of suffering, Sarkozy did her a disservice and He should apologise to her family.
numerous coverages abound:-

The Comment hyper-linked in the article preview section also.
The people who just empathise and and to add support can go to this site:

The woman is not a pawn for the sarkozy interests in South America, the situation is
more complex than that, the guardian feed article discusses the political complications.
Reading: 'News of a Kidnapping' (Gabriel Garcia Marquez)
Your pseud is offensive, now if you seek a testosterone outlet and want to play with guns
that really is your biz- but you have been trolling other threads too and yer comment has nothing
to do with the report.
Sarkozy is to many a joke, he is not a diplomat.
The attempted negotiations that include geneva/spain and france are ongoing. for one
of the heads of such negotiations to victimise a woman of dignity and strength for his
own political end shows quite clearly what a prat he truly is.
Betancourt has endured six years of hostage life and someone squeezes Sarko's
breakfast juice and irons his goddam shirts, he should go to 'President school'
and learn to act in a statesman like manner.
a genuine prat!
Why condemn Mr. Sarkozy for speaking the truth? That poor lady is being held against her will by FARC terrorists. If anything happens to her, then her blood will be on FARS's hands. The French government should not negotiate with FARC and promise concessions.. Time to send in the Foreign Legion says I! No surrender to terrorists!

wonder what they thought of his stupid comment.
for those who wish to support Ingrid Betancourt and possibly do not accept the deeply
undiplomatic statements by Sarkozy (who is not known for his diplomacy in other hostage
situations)

Wish her well.
