Just suppose he did die. What would happen to the election? Would Biden get a walkover? Would his VP Pence contest the election in his place?

Exactly. I'd never even heard of her before this happened, let alone how she voted on any issue

He'll be fine. It's a hoax Chinese virus and he's not Chinese. Anyhow a quick squirt of bleach will sort it out if it does exist. NWO innit.

Much less hollow than claiming she was testing her eyesight or shaking everybody by the hand shortly after telling everyone else not to.

I hope that's true and think it probably is. However there is an known effect whereby people often don't want to admit to pollsters that they hold unpopular views. Trump is so widely ridiculed I wonder how many people intending to vote for Trump are instead claiming they don't know or will vote for Biden. The irony is that the electoral college system was set up to avoid a simple majority vote delivering an 'unfit' person becoming President. Last time it worked against the majority of voters and gave us Trump instead.

Oh noes. A failed pub manager and a senile gammon are ganging up on me.

Every post you make the same comment with the same emoji. It's all you have four years on. I based my Norway opinion on what Johnson, Gove, Fox and Davis were saying about no tariffs, delays at the border and the easiest deal in history. I believed them but it turns out they were lying. These are the people you fanboy. .

It couldn't be going better. I don't think anybody could have predicted just how incompetent, disorganised and authoritarian Johnson, Cummings and co would be. The hash they are making of COVID is undermining their credibility on Brexit, such as it. Some people in the City are already betting that Johnson will be gone by Christmas. 12 months from glorious victor to discredited car crash. That's got to be some kind of record.

It's really not tricky. Military policy is a national competence not EU. European countries are free to discuss it but if it were to happen it would likely be outside of the EU framework as any single member of the EU could veto any proposal .

Exactly. We have an army of 80,000 of which the large majority are logistics, admin, maintenance etc. Perhaps 4,000 ready to fight at short notice. Since WW2 the US has bought political leadership by picking up the huge military tab for us and others. If they are changing course and cutting back we need a new strategy.

Sloes and damsons are part of the same family apparently.

Haven't used this recipe / what not to guide yet but looks good https://sipsmith.com/how-to-make-the-perfect-sloe-gin/

It's at times like these that your fundamental ignorance is displayed front and centre. No-one needs to infer it. If you ask a single question of 1,600 people in a randomised sample on 154 separate occasions and you get consistent answers - statistically there is to all intents and purposes no doubt - less than 1 in 10 billion chance. Not a high probability, not a "yeah but no but". The problem for you guys is that you don't understand pretty basic statistics and how they can, and can't be skewed. The demographic isn't unknown, you could look it up if you had any genuine interest in understanding rather than schoolboy debunking. I've given you a primer link below. Weston , you're wrong about only one other question being asked since March. That approach has been used the majority of times since June 2016, so the answers are directly comparable, the methodology hasn't changed. https://ukpollingreport.co.uk/faq-sampling

I think those death rate numbers are off - the death rate is around 0.2% and declining. If you look at the extrapolations of real infection rates its about 10 times higher than recorded infections - hence the death rate is ten times lower. The number of deaths is fairly well established but there are two numbers for infections - one is infections confirmed by a test and secondly estimates of number of infections nationally by testing a whole randomised population. Its still the case that the majority of those who have been tested are / were symptomatic - ie much more likely to go on and become seriously ill than an asymptomatic person. Most asymptomatic people dont get tested, obviously, aren't added to the number of cases and therefore the death rate is artificially inflated.

Since August 2017 there has been a consistent majority of people who think leaving the the EU was a mistake - but the gap has never been this wide. Only 39% of voters now think leaving was the right thing to do.
-
More of the same tragi-comedy that exists only in your head. The EU has always been on the verge of collapse according to the pro-Brexit campaign. Yet oddly since 1973 17 new countries have joined and only Britain has left (aside from Greenland after independence from Denmark). Another 10 are hoping to join.

Prisoners they are, prisoners. Itching to get out they are, itching.

You do know the basics of infection? That you need to have an infective dose? That it’s all about reducing level of exposure and length of exposure. Personally I think the strategy is wrong and only the vulnerable should shield . The rest of us should adopt sensible moderate distancing but essentially get on with out lives. However your idea that’s it’s all a nwo conspiracy is barking

Utter bollocks. Vape particles are less than 2.5 microns. The aerosol from a human cough ranges in size from 10-100 microns. The size of a corona virus is irrelevant. Its the size of the droplets its carried in that counts.

The democrat leaning Irish American lobby remains influential in the US. Not as big as in Kennedy's day but still counts. The Democrats control the House of Representatives and any trade deal agreed by the President needs to be approved by them. Its a real issue, not abstract or made up.
-
Lol. The deal will be a de minimis one. All the big issues will be kicked down the road some more.

Something happened to Icke though. He wasn't always like that
