There is no political crisis there are active far right groups we have always had extremists form both left and right

He and the MAGA crowd do a lot of talking but I doubt that they will implement a fraction of what they say (and probably have no intention too either) look at it this way, the US economy is doing OK would you blow it up by putting massive tariffs on everything that would cause a massive...

They don't but it's their job on the line, they have to follow the editorial line, many journalists will sell their soul to get a regular gig, and write articles that please their pay masters it really is the most despicable profession nowadays

Plenty are doing so, you say 600 million where did that figuare come from? Regardless it's become a cesspit of fake accounts and vile propaganda, many accounts are not real accounts some of the botnets can have 1000s of fake accounts even Space Karen was wary about the user numbers when he got...

I am on Bluesky now, Twitter is fast becoming the new Myspace, millions of decent accounts are migrating to Bluesky, you are not bombarded with ads, there are no bots, all together its a much better experience, sure there are a few quirks that need ironing out, but it's got the look and feel of...

That's presupposing that Trump is popular over here, he is with Reform types but they are a small minority he is deeply unpopular we may share the same language but we are very different

Reform will never be that strong in the UK they have voters but they are spread out too thinly across constituencies, they are very useful for Labour because they take chunk of the looney far right vote away from the Tories, teh British system is not really that democratic

Tariffs are a simplistic answer to very complex issues, and are much beloved by the hard of thinking, they certainly have their place especially when another country is dumping produce on you in an effort to kill domestic production (Chinese Steel and EV;s ) but just to apply tariff's on say...

That will be as far as she gets, she is just a caretaker very few parties only last one term in government (in the UK) the incumbent has the advantage, what tends to happen is majorities are whittled down, this government is in for at least two terms or maybe more, the problem for the Tories is...

Oh well. as they say when America soils the bed we all get dirty He's made a lot of promises most of which will be impossible to deliver there is absolutely nothing anyone can do now but wait it out and hope sanity prevails in 4 years I am with others I am deleting Twitter now

High Turn out always benefits centre or left leaning parties it's exactly the same in the UK, as we saw with Brexit the normal centre ground voter is rather apathetic whilst your average foaming at the mouth far right nutter is guaranteed to turnout

My sister lives in North Carolina, its a changing state huge influx of people from the North (mainly Democrats) which has changed the demographics not sure if it's changed enough

The problem is or the fact is, what happens in the states directly effects the world it's the only super power in a way it would be good if the whole world actually voted because it effects us just as much

I was equally mystified when Boris (or whatever his name really was) got to be Prime Minister and how many working class people fawned over him

She is just the caretaker there is n way they are getting back after one term of Labour, there is not much talent left in the Parliamentary party thanks to the cull of the moderates, under her they won't swing back to the centre ground and until they do they won't get back in power, Brexit has...

My sister who has lived in the states for years now and is now an American citizen is not happy with the choices they have a bit like here, but it fills me with dread the prospect of another Trump term, like it or not the USA is the leader of the free world (yes I know but I didn't invent the...

Is safe to come back on here yet?

Tin pot cup anyway

I’m not so sure he will get any bounce they will win a couple then lose a few it’s a cycle that keeps repeating whoever is in charge, basically they are shit

It's a surprise he has lasted this long but it shows that there really isn't anyone out there suitable for the job, well there is but they need time and lots of it perhaps 10 years, and of course in their desperation your average Rag will say they are willing to give them time, but come the...
