    A good stat is what the fiftieth percentile earns. That's the one that shows what crap the US economy has been for half a century.

    What sort of morons would not only prevent an ambulance on an emergency call reaching its destination, but post a video of them doing it online and think there was nothing wrong with it?

    These morons, obviously

    HOLIDAY SAFETY.

    Please take care of yourselves on the roads this holiday season.
    Arecent study conducted by the dept of health and the dept of motor vehicles indicates that 23% of traffic accidents are alcohol related.
    This means that the remaining 77% are caused by jerks who drink bottled water,starbucks,soda,juice,energy drinks and crap like that.
    Therefore beware of those who do not drink alcohol.They cause 3 times as many accidents.

    MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OUR READERS!!!!!

    A brief summary of Trumpists on Twitter this morning

    "Yaaaaaaaaaaaay! Medical insurance bills can bankrupt us all because Obamacare is dead! U-S-A! U-S-A!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

    Because having a medical system that is directly comparable to Third World countries is something worth celebrating, isn't it?

  9. Radio4 Week in Westminster editor bragging about having Darren Grimes on the show tomorrow to give his take on the Brexit debate. Yes, that’s the same Darren Grimes who has broken electoral law and is currently under investigation for offences linked to VoteLeave activities.....

    Good to see the Beeb maintaining their current political editorial standards..... <doh>

    I see that David Vance has taken a break from posting Islamophobic tripe to his Gab account to taking the Priti Patel approach to threatening Ireland with a big stick so his pro-Leave buddies get what they want

    Although I can't help but spot three separate gas fields off the Irish coast that might make his threats a little meaningless...

  11. Isabel Oakeshott, almost daily mouthpiece of the Leave Far Right crowd for the past few years, has tried to distance herself from them in Twitter. Fair to say it hasn’t gone well for the lovely lady...... <laugh>

    Yes, very interesting! I also wonder what proportion of the workforce is under the 50th percentile, and how that has changed over the years.

    This being the same Isabel Oakeshott who denied any accusations of Arron Banks having ties to Russia...while sitting on evidence of Arron Banks having ties to Russia that she was planning to reveal in a book she was writing...

    Trump wouldn't care tuppence for Obamacare if it wasn't for the first 5 letters!
    I still think he should catch a train or bus to his many trips to the golf course.
    How much does it cost to fly Air Force One to the links everytime?

  16. When you get satirically dissected by the Germans, it's a good indicator that something's seriously wrong......

    Our ex-chairman believes that, as we're not super-duper rich, we're "losers" who "achieved nothing" in our lives. Any doctors, teachers or firefighters want to chime in on this one?

    Oh, and best not share this online, Rachel Riley off Countdown will accuse you of antisemitism if you do...

    Sorry, I didn't explain what I meant clearly. The default measurement for individual wealth is GNP per capita. The statistic I meant to describe divides the US population into 100 groups, from the first percentile of the 3,000,000 or so wealthiest to the 99th percentile of the 3,000,000 poorest. The GNP per capita will rise when no one but the top 1% makes more money, while the income for the 50th percentile won't.

  19. No, you complete twat - this is a huge deal between Japan and the EU! You know, that group you’re so determined to leave..... <doh>
    We will not only not derive any benefit from the deal, but the conditions applied to it will actually make any independent deal with Japan even harder to achieve in the future.
    Oh - and for dessert - this deal will further strengthen Japanese car manufacturers access to the European markets - so expect to see a widespread and rapid migtration from UK shores by the likes of Nissan - with the ensuing impact on the economy of the country.

    Well done, Liam & Friends - Good feckin’ work all round...... <steam>
