The Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado has handed over the Nobel Peace Prize she was awarded last year to Donald Trump.

I can't write any more as words fail me.sad

I am going to find out if we can write in support of them winning. Because it may finally cause his blood pressure to get so high he has a stroke and must retire to wherever pedophile criminals go.

I'll just leave it at that. wink

This is wonderful.

now that takes the biscuit, not "not".

Tantrums ahead.

Wyllow3 Wed 04-Feb-26 08:58:30

Oh my, imaround not that really "takes the biscuit!" grin grin!!!!!!!!

I saw this, too, imaround, and was pleased to see recognition for the measured response from this city, under such terrible pressure.
I suspect it will cause quite a tantrum in the White House. What might we expect - sanctions against the city/ threats to invade somewhere, anywhere/plans to cut central funding to " nasty" places?

Blue Peter badge maybe?

Perhaps that would stop him from suing the BBC!

How very dare you?! BP badges had to be earned 😁

Going on is the right word, it’s a ramble.

Wyllow3 Tue 20-Jan-26 20:13:21

He's going on about it in his speech tonight, he cant leave it alone. He whined, "its in the hands of Norway" whinge whinge and he cant even get that right as its an international committee.

An actual Hero.

Today is a bank holiday in the US to honor Martin Luther King Jr. An actual Noble Peace Prize winner.

TBH I can see why she made the gesture, given how Máduro was so viscerally hated by so many Venezuelans, including a neighbour of ours.

But we all know that Trump hasn’t actually won a Nobel Peace Prize at all.

Of course, I forgot that the BBC is nothing but fake news and paedophilia... Trump should really feel at home then!

PS. the chocolates were eaten decades ago, only the letter is available.....

Rosie51 Mon 19-Jan-26 01:14:31

I'll send him my letter from Cadbury's chocolate that thanked me for my entry and awarded me a box of chocolate Neapolitans won in primary school (age around 8 years old) Are you certain I'll get a handwritten Thank You letter imaround otherwise I'm not bothering!

imaround Mon 19-Jan-26 01:00:49

I would rather my tax dollars pay for staff to unbox every trophy and hand write Thank You letters than what is happening right now.

He can have my 12 yards swimming certificate if he likes!

He’s sure as hell not having my Moonwalk medal! 6 hours and two minutes, I’ll have you know (with breast cancer. Would, obviously, have been at least an hour less without - 🤣) ten years ago, all good now.

He’s a very, very dangerous person. Good friend is a psychiatrist. Not her speciality but fairly well informed. She’s certain he has dementia.

No-one with a neurological condition should be the most powerful person on the planet!

Casdon Sun 18-Jan-26 21:09:41

He’s won it all, let’s clean out our closets 😂

In case any of you want the address. wink

Oh imaround, what a splendid idea!

Smileless2012 Sun 18-Jan-26 19:54:03

As she doesn't want it, her name as the recipient should be expunged from the records kept of recipients and these should state that it was not awarded in 2025.

He can have my tap dancing certificate that I was awarded in the 1950's but he's not having the frame - it can go in one of his own golden frames
