Off Topic The Politics Thread

I saw him being interviewed on Sky News today and thought what a ******. He was going on about the first referendum not being legitimate due to people not knowing what they voted for and that we should now have another one. . He said many would turn up... I wonder how many did?
Farage described it as a bizarre desperate last-ditch attempt to get a second referendum.

 

I know this is tiresome, and I'm quite tired of saying it, but Nige did say that a 52-48 vote would be 'unfinished business'.

 

Farage now there is another charlatan if ever there was

The Russian military has announced that they believe an alleged chemical attack in Syria was staged and directed by Britain. We were going to put a pun in the headline but honestly, this is ridiculous enough on its own.
Activists in the country had said a chemical attack by the Syrian government killed more than 40 people in the town of Douma and this drew international outrage. However, Russian Defence Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov has now said:
“We have evidence that proves Britain was directly involved in organising this provocation.”

Russia has often accused opposition fighters of staging or spreading rumours of chemical attacks, but the involvement of Britain is a new claim.
Chemical weapons have previously been used by Bashar al-Assad’s force. Human Rights Watch has documented 85 chemical weapons attacks in Syria since 2013. For example, investigations by the United Nations and the OPCW have concluded that the Syrian government has previously used chemical weapons in the Khan Shaykhun chemical attack. The Syrian government and Russia claimed the Khan Shaykhun chemical attack came from a rebel operated chemical weapon workshop, however their claim was disproved by OPCW investigations.
Yesterday, Russia’s Foreign Ministry hit out at reports that the UK has ordered a British submarine to move within striking distance of Syria. As we reported here, a British nuclear submarine has been ordered to move “within missile range of Syria”, as strikes against the Assad regime are put on the table.
Prime Minister Theresa May said that London will join any punitive strike against the Syrian regime. May added that she will not be seeking a vote in parliament to authorise British participation in any forthcoming strike agianst Syria. British nuclear submarines of the Trafalgar and Astute class are armed with 1,000 mile range Tomahawk cruise missiles.
Russia’s ambassador to Lebanon Alexander Zasypkin had earlier said any missiles fired at Syria would be shot down and the launch sites targeted, a step which could trigger a major escalation in the Syrian war.
“If there is a strike by the Americans then the missiles will be downed and even the sources from which the missiles were fired” he told Hezbollah’s al-Manar TV.”
Now, Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova, has suggested that a missile attack would be a grave error that the Prime Minister would have to apologise for later. She said the “young men” on board the submarines have no idea “what fate they are preparing for” and “what fate Theresa May prepares for them.”

 

Funny the said last week that there wasn't a chemical attack now they say there was and it was us.
Maybe our Russian sympathizers should start believing the government rather than these liars.

 

Yes, I think this is true.

 

Name and shame these Russian sympathizers Ellers. Please try use some quotes if possible.

 

I've tried that, Bob. He can't of course.

 

We know who they are.

 

Ah good cos they really should be named and shamed in my opinion

 

And we know what you are

Is that them Ellers?

 

I asked Ellers (who's absolutely not a supercilious prick) for an apology for intimating that I was a Putin sympathiser. None was forthcoming.

(I'm not sure if the last bit is grammatically correct)
