I think schools should remove disruptive students and transfer them to a school run by the military/National Guard. 

this is sooper based and i never would have expected it of you

just shows how we let our impressions colour our perceptions

i'm not even sure i agree with it

but good on you

Some kids do want to learn. They should have an encouraging environment to do that. 

Disruptive kids (mostly IMO) are looking for attention or are bullying for reasons that need to be found out. 

In my era when they had the draft — many young men became thankful for the discipline and purpose. Something they didn’t get at home. 

Therefore — I propose mandatory military run schools with certified counselors. 

Try to catch them before they end up in prison.

Sadly, yes indeed.

I am apparently a lefty.

Yet, on ATS I was very anti Corbyn who was a real live actual lefty.

So, if I was a lefty it follows that I would have supported him.

Which I absolutely did not.

Please don't mention Dianne you know who either....

I don't know any of the more obscure politicians in the U.K., do you mean Dianne Abbott (had to search it), an advocate for social justice? For shame fighting for social justice. /sarc

So for the Labour Party, it appears there is a Labour Party Left, is there a Labour Party Right with no middle ground? lol

She was, quite simply, a truly awful person.

The loony left were purged by Starmer.

No one really knows what he stands for.

Starmer is just more of the global face mask of totalitarianism and pushing for zero borders, influx of 'economic migrants' , nanny state, in your face censorship, AI, and surveillance. 
Just like Trump was the nationalistic MAGA super America yay guy but he is just doing globalist style crap here too, but in a corporate fashion as opposed to a governmental fashion. Same end-game.
It will be to carve up the world into major sectors, like in 1984.
Each policed and enforced in their own bubbles.  
Eurasia
Eastasia
Oceania

Very disappointed in all of our 'leaders' going in lock step towards a digital prison, and erasing culture with unchecked un-assimilat-able migration of masses.

'They' want to make the whole world become the Third World minus some enclaves in like Switzerland, Southern California, Colorado, Hawaii, New Zealand...

Once we are all done bickering (generally for entertainment) about stupid politics we can generally all agree that we hate politicians en masse.

And that's how THEY want it, eternally divided into 2 stupid groups, bickering not for fun but really emotionally invested and hating and distracted by the single end game of theft corruption and control behind the curtain. 

Sad part is, that's the majority of human nature due to not having time or effort to 'work on themselves' and so in history it just repeats repeats repeats
I had coffee this morning on account of it's Friday......

what could not be more obvious from the files is that things like left/right or democrat/republican don't matter at all if you have tens of millions of dollars, multinational corporations, and private airplanes.

and they shouldn't even if you don't, is the conclusion we should draw.

Exactly what I have been spewing for the last couple of years. 
Let's stop being blindsided little emotional monkey-sheep , band together, destroy the data centres, refuse to use crypto, refuse surveillance, and push for cash and common sense.  Let's refuse to 'play the game' and abstain from voting federally and state wise period. Say 'no confidence'  .  Push for 3rd, 4th and 5th parties. 
Please ? :D
Too much logic .

En lieu of the OP
I see Trump's denial of NATO not a sign of petulant child-like destroying of alliances, or cosying up to Putin.
that's the low-level simple-minded view.
It really is a sign of my above post, the pivot towards a North American, ultimately American hemispheric (both N and South) geopolitical grouping and order. 
The American Union, to hegemonise against the failing decline of the Eurasian community which is stupefying and importing it's own demise. 
It's essentially a globalist plan, but its part of the giant slow goal of 'monopolisation'
