  1. He has 2 major points in his favour; he isn't Donald Trump, and GM doesn't like him.
  2. Just an observation; why do you never respond when somebody posts a question for you to answer ?
  3. On the day before the referendum vote Farage said that if Remain won 52/48 "the fight will go on". Would he have been a "nutter ignoring the democratic will of the people" ? Would you have been a "whiner" ? ( Certainly the second question gets an affirmative answer ).
  4. I think Faraway is commenting on Brexiteers and anti-Biden rhetoric, particularly in relation to the spleen being vented by one specific poster.
  5. The US political regime, particularly in relation to the system for electing the President, is even less democratic than the UK's FPTP process. The Republicans in particular are actively gerrymandering State electoral rules to ensure they get the result they, and especially their sponsors, desire.
  6. He'd need a microphone stand to cling onto.
  7. 1) The Republicans under Trump will cut the support for Ukraine to thank Putin for buying them the election. Hardly "standing up to our enemies". 2) Biden and the Democrats are not Socialists. 3) Starmer is not a Communist. Whatever political thesaurus you are reading needs a complete rewrite. ( How I managed to construct an answer to that post without adding profanity or insult shows enormous self restraint ). You need to stay off the sauce so early in the morning.
  8. I'm sure there's a fart joke in there somewhere.
  9. It was pointed out on the radio news that it is not easy for the Albanian Government to do much to stop migrants from there as their citizens have freedom of movement within the EU, so can get to the Channel coast without having to register theitr intentions or obtain much in the way of documentation.
  10. Apparently, one in three drivers think that cyclists don't belong on the road. ( Well, we at least know GM agrees with that ). https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-63492215
  11. If 40% of consumers don't like them then 60% do. Don't we live in a democracy ? If you don't like the Bounty bars, save them up and donate them to a local food bank.
  12. North Korea doesn't have taxes, mortgages, or immigration.
  13. Or post one statistically inaccurate 'fact' about Saints..
  14. Isn't Albania a White List country, so one where persecution has been determined to not be a factor ?

    Apparently it took 5 hours to tow the Makarov back to port.
  16. Rishi Sunak is to review the promises he made during his successful leadership campaign to work out if they are actually deliverable.
  17. France
  18. What did the elepnant say to the naked man ? "Impressive, but can you pick up peanuts with it ?"

    Now that is an intriguing choice for a false flag operation.

  22. Yes, but the UK rates are rising faster than most other European countries.
  23. Show me where I have "trolled" you. ( Bit of a pointless ask if I'm ignore but worth trying ). You posted an article about the Eurozone inflation rate, and claiming that this was a good reason for leaving the EU. Your follow-up was a quote about accession states being required to join the Euro, a completely different point, and indeed one that has been pointed out by many on here, myself included, as one reason why rejoining would be far more difficult than simply reversing Brexit. If you actually read the thread and paid attention you could avoid embarrassing yourself. You pompously goose-step around the forum as if you are the greatest mind since Einstein, posting dubious and biased articles where you generally fail to acknowledge the sources, and I suspect expecting people to assume they have been written by yourself and that you understand what they say, and either ignoring or insulting anybody who has the temerity to either counter, question, or prove the falsehood of your input. You are entitled to your point of view, others are entitled to theirs. This is a debating / discussion forum, not your personal podium at Hyde Park Corner. And while you may well be some posters' 'elder', you are most certainly not anybody's 'better'.
  24. He moved a large chunk of his investment business to Ireland before Brexit was finalised.

    A 130 year old bullet will kill you just as easily as one produced last week.
