Real subtle!

 

On a similar note...





There's also the part about the Orange Overlord's mother being a hamster and his father smelling of elderberries

 

Ever closer to the Orange Oaf!

Don't back it - Don't feckin' back it!!!

2 years and millions wasted - but will still be the best option!

 

Here's something for the "Will of the People" crowd.

The "Will of the People" stated that the UK's newest Arctic exploration vessel should be called Boaty McBoatface, but that was overruled. So where's the threats on the front page of the Daily Mail over that one?

 

Ironically, we ended up with an onboard submersible with that name. Something of an analogy for Brexit: started with big ice-breaking ambition and ends with a puny vessel that will seldom see the light of day

 

No further comment necessary...

Meanwhile, since he's deleted the tweet after being called out for being a ****ing liar, this is what Nigel Farage posted online yesterday

If it is obviously stupid, sometimes it's difficult to go with.

Recently in Cape Town, a vote was held for a new name for Cape Town Airport. The options were all of the usual suspects, ANC leaders and revolutionaries plus one other, Joe Masepus. And to every one's surprise, Joe Masepus won.

Joe Masepus is a play on words in Afrikans

Jou Ma se Poess. Roughy translated 'Your Mothers Cnut'.

 

That's Brexit ruled out, then!

 

Only 49.8% thought it was silly.

 

Having said only 49.8% of people thought Brexit was silly, I should have said that only 49.8% of people who voted thought it was silly. Others may have thought it was silly but either couldn't vote or didnt give a fek.

I voted to leave but if there was a third option 'dont give a fek', I would have voted for that.

Quite frankly, any vote of this type there should be a two thirds majority for change as only about 66% of people were able/bothered to vote. 50.1% of the entire population is definitive, a few thousand here and there of about 70% of the population is not.

Brexit got rid of Cameron and the Editor of the Evening Standard (forgotton his name already) so it is not all bad.

 

He'll be well pissed off when he figures that Putin is not in Helsinki, but in Moscow watching the football

 

Expect 'soccerball' to be banned in the USA in the not too distant future.

 

People of the world, ask yourselves the following question: can you see your leader doing this when your country is winning a World Cup final?

Interesting article which documents the Orange Oafs consistent abuse of anyone and anything that stands in his way. On this occasion his toral disregard for local interest and his outright lying (and corruption) to get his way.

Who would've thought
