If Trump does half of what he's said he'll do on 'Day One', he's going to have a very busy day. It includes pardoning the Jan 6th defendants, slapping 25% tariffs on imported goods and kicking men out of women's sports.

Tilak Doshi says Trump's "drill, baby, drill" energy policy may not be popular in Davos, but will be welcomed by leaders in the Global South, fed up with being lectured about carbon emissions by rich Western countries.

Is this a For-Profit event? Looks like it is- no mention of any group or why it should be a fundraiser.

Could it be a fundraiser for a group that is too ashamed to mention its name?

I believe it is a fundraiser for Republican Sinn Fein. If they are too inept to include that information I don't think they will be running the country anytime soon.

Hi Drotherapy !
Every such function is a "for-profit event" - whether it's the pub owner(s) that hope to make a profit , the group , or the organisers. Bet that's a surprise to you!
And I notice you didn't publish your name , either : pot, kettle.
Thanks anyway for 'bumping' this post up the thread!

Hi #$*# !
No real need , then , to mention 'the name' - sure you knew all along ;-)
Thanks for the 'bump'!
Thanks folks!
Sharon.

Hi !
We had a great night out , a full house , buzzing atmosphere - and a promise to do it all again!
There was 13 raffle prizes won last night , a packed hall that was at times louder than the band , a bar that couldn't keep up with the orders and an exhausted organising committee....

More info - and a good few pics - at the 'Related Link' below.
Thanks!
Sharon.
