When you keep electing politicians who ignore your wishes and bend over backward to placate minority groups, then there is bound to be a backlash eventually.

With Brexit people were fed up of the increased power over us given to countries that don't even like us - and the way the "refugees" (all with iPhones) were being funnelled through every country on their way to the "Welfare State".
 
But they don't give 3% coverage. I'd be happy with 3%. And anyway, science isn't decided by a popularity contest. Theories are proved right or wrong by experimental data, not by popularity. When you get anomalies such as global average temperatures not actually rising at all since 1999, the BBC has no right to censor such data. It's a total disgrace.

1) Brexit wasn't a partisan issue.
2) Where are the violent protests happening about Brexit? The media must be doing a good job of keeping it under wraps.
 
I can't take credit for this as I heard it on the radio, but I thought it was quite a neat summary: Trump's opponents took him literally but didn't take him seriously. His supporters took him seriously but not literally.
Exactly.
The wall was only ever about a Pink Floyd reunion concert in San Diego.
