Off Topic Politics Thread

And just like that, I said that politics and religion should be kept separate and join them on the politics thread

 

Genius!!

 

At last! Someone else agrees with me! I thought I was the only one who believed in the all-powerful cycling gnomes, but now I know I'm not alone, I'll re-start the construction of the gnomic velodrome temple I was building in my garden.

 

Moldova’s ruling pro-Western party is on track for a decisive victory and a fresh majority in parliament after a crucial election riven with allegations of Russian interference. Before the vote, President Maia Sandu warned that Russia had spent “hundreds of millions of euros” in a bid to sway the result, seen as crucial for the former Soviet state’s future path to the European Union.
But with more than 99% of votes counted early Monday, Sandu’s Party of Action and Solidarity (PAS) had secured more than 50% of the vote, far ahead of the pro-Russian opposition Patriotic Bloc with under 25%. If confirmed, PAS will retain its majority in Moldova’s 101-seat legislature.
