The Politics Thread

Have a quick browse of them. Virtually none of the negative ones are British.
Top one is currently Polish, next is a Kenyan award winning journalist, then Ghanaian, Swiss...

They're virtually all non-UK god botherers and seem to be vastly outnumbered by positive posts.
Can't say that's the reaction that I expect, to be honest.

 

Priti Patel is trending on social media, again. Never a good thing.
This time it's because she's defending her decision to put Extinction Rebellion on the terrorist watch list.
She's also claimed that Meghan Markle hasn't been the subject of media racism.
One day she'll be right about something.

 

There was a few with Nigel Farage Ego Project Ltd pics also dogpiling on

...so add Russian to the list then

 

One of my main problems with the EU is their neoliberal leanings. I don't happen to think it's a very democratic organisation to start with, but there (as in all countries), nobody really elects the economists, but their influence is as great that the politicians. Incidentally, I'm not holding up this country outside of the EU as a bastion of non-neoliberalism, although if any good comes of our exit it might be a better chance to restore sensible economics.

 

So if making people late for work is enough for Priti Vacant to classify Extinction Rebellion as a terrorist organization, does that mean we should be hunting down Chris Grayling like he was Osama bin-Laden?

 

Where would that put a government minister who had secret talks with foreign officials?

 

That is a ludicrous assumption. He is bought and paid for.

 

In the same cell as Gavin Williamson after he blabbed what happened at a national security meeting to the Torygraph...

 

So according to some angry people on Twitter (and, you know, people who write for the Sun, Mail and Express) Harry & Meghan leaving the Royal Family will be insanely problematic and it will have long-lasting effects, but the UK leaving the EU will be a piece of cake and everything will be fine afterwards with no issues to consider whatsoever

Something tells me that doesn't ring particularly true...

 

Just not one day soon

 

Nice pullover!

 

Gee, I wonder where that Russia report is?

 

The Russia report won't say anything remotely controversial. National security and all that, old chap.

 

I take it Gavin Williamson won't be in those meetings to blab it all to the press then?
