To a large extent it is. Ask someone who's arrived here from Afghanistan, for example, if they'd have come if we weren't smashing up and meddling on their country. The answer, and it's honest, is nearly always no. Everyone wants stability and hope.

You've got to be pretty stupid to not be able to comprehend that there are domestic politics, global politics, geo politics, and occasions where 2 or more of those things overlap.

Yep, and 10 year gilt yields have fallen by a fair chunk too. Burnham has been slow and steady, and made sensible noises re the EU, and that's what we've needed.

I'll reprise pies with only a lid. That's not a pie, just a casserole with a bit of pastry on top. I want my questionable /unhealthy filling fully encased in unhealthy pastry.

If you stripped out the heavy adjectives and polemical style, you'd probably get some reasoned feedback on the substance of that.

Yep. A while ago it seemed far fetched, but the threats are starting to get real. The problem is we can't Pandora back in the box.

Yep, he lost, deservedly. Bringing that up was a disgrace.

Oh absolutely, massively red, hence taking it would have been a huge statement.

All 3 of them are impressive, and Abdul was very classy in the face of a horribly dirty campaign. I loved the way he dealt with the heckler who asked if he opposed the Muslim brotherhood, essentially exposing him as a racist but without pointing the finger.

Yep, although Florida would have been a massive statement win and sewn up the south east coastal states. The change in the south is huge though, and Mississippi will be interesting - only 28 votes in it after almost a million votes counted.

Yep. Great turnaround, although it looks like the Democrats will fall a little short in a few places I'd like to have seen them flip, Florida for example. The downside is that he'll veto everything though so he's not been neutered.

God is a DJ. They even made a song about it - what more proof does anyone need.

I reckon winter festival pudding is his favourite, and that he loves wearing his winter festival jumper for a pre winter festival shandy at the winter festival market.

Contractions! Is that a reference to the birth of the baby Jesus?
