The EU debate - Part III

[DMD]

Possibly. I've never argued the EU is perfect. However I believe it demonstrates more the failing of individual governments.

Trump might have some great policies. When he comes out with outlandish stuff about Muslims and Mexicans then people will focus on that. I doubt they're his own beliefs but he's a marketing genius and knows what people want to hear.

If the individual governments are failing, and they form part of the whole, why would we want to be involved? Won't we just be subsidising them?

The comments Trump made about immigrants and Mexicans were identical to ones made by Clinton.

You call it nonsense, and then agree that the main stream media is biased. Both sides of the spectrum are doing it. It's just a given, so it's not a reason to dismiss the issues raised, which can still be discussed.

In that context I agree. Virtually all papers have an agenda - mostly a right wing one.
I the case of Brexit, however, the papers were more divided. Although the usual far right rags (Fail & Excess) were publishing their normal one sided, senstionalised rubbish.

 

[NSIS]

Someone has to report the truth.

Occasionally, some papers do.

However, it almost certainly won't be either of those two. The Fail and Excess are not newspapers, they're comics...

I know it's down to opinions but I find the BBC to be really left wing biased.

NO newspaper tells the truth, they tell whatever story that sells papers. Some are more subtle, I'll give you that, but they all have a political and sensationalist slant.

Britain's economy is growing faster than the ENTIRE G7 in another sign fears over Brexit vote are unfounded

Obviously this is a widely held belief about the BBC but, even as a lifelong Tory, I've never really got that impression about the organisation.

Looks like the Daily Kustard is panicking that the Kick 'em Out At All Costs Brexit may not happen.

 

[NSIS]

Britain's economy is growing faster than the ENTIRE G7 in another sign fears over Brexit vote are unfounded

And here's the last paragraph of that article from ( who else!) The Fail...


'Growth accelerated in most Major Seven economies in the third quarter of 2016, with the exception of the United Kingdom and Germany, where growth slowed to 0.5 per cent and 0.2 per cent, respectively, compared with 0.7 per cent and 0.4 per cent in the previous quarter.

Corbyn left humiliated as Tories open MASSIVE lead over Labour on 'economic competence'
THE Conservative party has taken an astonishing 33-point lead over Labour on economic competence, according to a new poll.

As I said its opinions, but I've got to the point where I find watching the breakfast news a waste of time, especially during certain times / events. Why ask guests to come in and then talk over them.

So Trump wants Farage as British Ambassador. Didn't know he got to pick our politicians as well as his own?

That's how nutso the guy is. He genuinely seems to think he's taking part in some reality TV show.

We're gonna need to send in Bond to stop him, I have concerns though with Bond not being real.

Good point, can we get Superheros involved they seem to look after the planet as a whole even though most are American.

He'll eventually cut his own throat. The bookies today cut the odds on him being impeached/serving a full term.

Trump's Farage for ambassador suggestion has gone down like a **** sandwich with Number 10.

Good luck Theresa

I quite like the i.

You are right of course but I don't think anything comes close to the ridiculousness of the Mail. It's like they're wumming their own readers.
