I thought my point was obvious. FOREIGN reporters get significantly less time with the elected leader of any nation, especially on election day. How much time would Johnson give to an American news channel that just shoves a mike in his face?
It wasn't election day. He could have ignored them or told them he didn't have time for them. He didn't though, he stopped and paused for a second and then decided to come out with what he said. Did you see it?
This is the biggest mountain out of a molehill I've ever seen ... ... it's obviously vitally important to you so I'll leave it there. I'm off to watch the Remembrance service and the 2 minutes silence.
Worth a google, I watched it and it looked in jest but that's for everyone to draw their own conclusions.
Absolutely correct. No answer for the comeback about respecting democracy when Brexit is used to counter that argument. Aside from the fact that bringing up Boris was completely irrelevant and unrelated to the tread.
I was making the comparison with elected leaders and the amount of time they have for the foreign media ... ... totally relevant. I've explained three times, there won't be a fourth. Enjoy your day on the internet.
I wouldn't wax too lyrical about Biden to be honest. For one thing, although he was brilliantly marketed as some kind of genial uncle Joe, he does in fact have a reputation as a bit of an unpleasant piece of work with a short temper. For another, he has a long standing dislike for the UK, although as it almost certainly won't be him making the big decisions , hopefully that might not matter. Anyone can read a speech on autocue, although he has struggled with this at times too, but we'll see. Certainly it will be calmer. A lot will depend on whether or not they make up the large shortfall in the Georgia run offs to take the Senate. The Democrats fully expected to do win the Senate, and it is mind boggling that they did not when they have unseated a sitting president, only the fourth time this has happened. If they don't, Biden, who is already a lame duck in essence because of his age and health, will be in an awkward position, having to look abroad for traction very early in his presidency.
No I didn't see it. But his grandstanding support for the IRA years ago gives you a clue as to his sympathies. They will emerge, though it really is doubtful that he has the physical or remaining mental capacity to discharge the duties of the office, so much, in all areas , will depend on who is pulling the strings.
Nobody accused anyone of vote rigging etc during brexit. There was genuine concerns brought up regarding the lies that were told in the campaigning, but no threats of lawsuits.
In my opinion it was said in jest and maybe a reference to the Internal Markets Bill which he has already voiced his opinion. This from Twitter to make your own minds up
I never said that. The democratic vote wasn't respected and the winning vote wasn't allowed to go through like it should have been. There were campaigns and demands for another referendum (Totally unacceptable) and many MP's were trying to block Brexit from happening altogether.
And people are making this out to be something significant, wow! Perhaps any flippant off the cuff reference about your heritage, to the UK media, should result in being barred from office Trump to the Guardian 'I feel Scottish,' says Donald Trump on flying visit to mother's cottage.
