    The Kremlin likely works in the same way as driving on any Italian road: as everyone is a complete psychopath it means everyone is on the same wavelength, which means that in spite of all logic to the contrary it works - but if you drop in somebody who isn't on that wavelength, expect carnage.

    As I have said, at least twice, perhaps if there was any form of balanced reporting it wouldn't necessitate somebody to actually write a list such as that. That's the issue, with all manner of Tory sleaze buried - after all, the sleaze spreadsheet from late last year was quickly buried with the bare minimum of casualties while the reporting clearly focused on the quote-unquote lesser offences.

    Similar can be said of the expenses scandal of a decade ago, with all the attention of frivolous crap like gravel and duck ponds, yet ignoring people claiming hundreds of thousands of pounds on houses they didn;t own.

    So only Tory sleaze is buried, and that of the other
    political parties is easily found with nominal effort ??

    If so (you know what is coming) ...

    I keep asking myself,why is politics and politicians around the world so lacking? I know politicians have always been accused of lying,but todays lot appear imbeciles.

    I believe if Kruschev wanted to be nasty and was,he'd tell you. Putin,in comparison doesn't admit to a thing even though the writing is on the wall.

    I think May is at least trying while Trump is just plain off his rocker.That was obvious when Trump promoted his doctor to politics after the doctor said he was sane and healthy!

    Which brings me to Melania.......is she waiting for a big payday when Trump is kicked out?

    Today in the media...



    Just substitute the word "AIDS" with "Jews" and you're good to go. Just remember to ignore things such as this, this or this.
    For the third time I'll just point you to the last week's worth of news coverage for a perfect example.

    Or I'll point you to last year's election coverage when Diane Abbott's brainfart was in the news for weeks yet Amber Rudd, Michael Fallon and Damian Green weren't mentioned
    Or a couple of weeks beforehand, when Corbyn was being portrayed as a Russian stooge while attention with no focus at all on how the Tories allowed so much Russian influence into the country so they could line their pockets
    And here's an even better example: how many of the names on that list were you even aware about?

    What the **** is a mainstream Jew?
    It sounds disturbingly like the old racist exemption for supposedly good people that weren't like other blacks/Jews/Irish, etc.

    That's the point where Guido Fawkewit tips their hand: using the term "mainstream Jew" is like referring to...give me a minute while I try and think of the best non-hyperbolic comparison that won't make me sound like a colossal bellend the second I hit Post Reply...so it would be like saying Catholics are "mainstream Christians" to imply Protestants, Methodists, Orthodox, Jehovah's Witnesses etc etc are the wrong type of Christians and therefore are "lesser" denominations and all that entails.

    Or, you know, I could've just posted a clip of this Emo Phillips routine...

    They have a show called Jesus Christ,Superstar, with a blackman as Jesus instead of the usual white. Has a Jewish person ever portrayed Jesus on stage?

    Except that he has a very easy defence against it.
    Britain knows because of intelligence, leaving aside the fact that it's obviously Russia anyway.
    He can't come out and explain exactly how without revealing sources or methods.
    He was also vague enough to say that "the guy" told him, which is pretty ****ing meaningless.

    Here's a clip of the full quote for context



    There's no vaguery about it: he explicitly says that Porton Down confirmed to him that it was a Russian-made chemical used in the attack, so he;s bang to rights on this one.

    "People from Porton Down" and "the guy". Very vague.
    He doesn't say that they know due to scientific analysis alone, just that they have samples and he was told categorically that it was Russia.

    It's a nonsense story that's being pushed by the Russians as an I Told You So, as part of their ongoing bullshit.

    Why is their bullshit not as good as our bullshit? You are taking a position based on nothing. We don't know how the British Government arrived at their position. We have only the perceived integrity or not of the players on both sides. I have no reason to believe either side therefore I will reserve my judgement as any reasonable person should.

    Theresa May could this very day become one of the UK´s greatest PM´s in living memory, and the solution is very simple. She could announce that she is going to bin Brexit. Great! Job done!!

    After all, London voted to remain by a substantial majority, and she should respect that majority. Sod the Chavs in the shires.
