The Politics Thread

For those wondering, which is all of us, he guy on the left is president of Turkmenistan (Ctrl + C) Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow

 

Saudis now saying 'officially' that Jamel Kashoggi died 'in a fight with Saudi Intelligence agents trying to convince him to return to the Kingdom'! No mention of how the Journalists body was then dismembered and the parts dissolved in acid undertaken within the Head of Consulates private residence!

Trump's response? 'Thats credible!!'

 

Apparently it's common in Saudi Arabia for people to fight with saws...

 

And to take your own saw into the country for the purpose.....

 

Pre-todays March for a 2nd Referendum......Richard Tice, founder of Leave Means Leave and former co-chair of Leave.EU, told BBC Breakfast: "The idea that you should have a second referendum would be incredibly damaging - most of all to the trust in democracy from people up and down this country. Remainers just have to accept they lost!'

That's feckin' rich coming from a London-based Mouser!!

 

I think this sums up Tice's level of competence...

Such principles that he informed several members of the party that the Irish backstop wouldn't be a problem, only for it to become as big a problem as installing a drunken moron to conduct negotiations and not firing him when he conceded negotiations within ten minutes of them beginning.

What's terrifying is that Nadine Dorries is suggesting that Davis become interim party leader...

 

Surely nobody is stupid enough to trot out the ‘we won, you lost’ mantra? When anybody with even half a brain knows that Brexit produces no winners, only different grades of losers


Oh, seems there’s still one or two numpties about then!...

 

There's plenty of Twitter trolls happy to keep trotting that mantra out. The fact that several Tory MPs happen to qualify as Twitter trolls says a lot.

On the subject of Twitter trolls...

As Brexit worries deepen, Mad Cow disease and Autumn storms cause consternation across the UK, Mrs May finds time to practice her dancing in advance of her anticipated appearance on Strictly 2019 as ex-PM.

Or maybe it's just a mad cow running through the remains of a wheat field?

Oh wait........

 

Punch up in the consulate? What would you do if you saw 15 arabs,one with a bone cutter coming at you?

 

The only solution is for the cow to resign immediately, before the whole country becomes infected and goes mad.

 

Same thing I'd do if I saw a gang of fifteen people of any race, one carrying a bone cutter, coming towards me - RUN

 

No where to go,mate!

 

Who are the bad boys? The ones in the middle or the chaps in yellow?

 

The bloke on the bottom right whose haircut looks like a piece of toast landed on his head.

...although I have seen it pointed out the police formation resembles something

These were circulated earlier - apparently they are Death Angel mushrooms and are toxic to anything they come into contact.

No, they were not circulated by Stormy Daniels but I couldn't help thinking of her......

 

It also overlooks the fact that the vote was marginal at a time (nearly two and a half years ago) when people did not have the information we do now about the effects of leaving and what it would entail to achieve it. The vote is less credible with every passing day.
"You lost" is the type of argument a five year old would trot out because they are incapable of putting together any other.
But politicians do have the mentality of five year olds, especially when it comes to accepting that they might be wrong and listening to what people with alternative arguments have to say. Like five year olds, they are too stubborn to climb down.

 

This is a Tory MP, who’s so stupid and uninformed that he doesn’t know that Switzerland is a member of EFTA and is party to the Schengen Agreement.

And we’re supposed to trust these people to lead us!?..

It won’t load. The tweet, apparently, but it’s Craig McKinlay. Tory MP for Thanet,

Look hard, can u see ‘hard border’ between non-EU country, Switzerland & EU state, France? This photo of the border. Can’t see it- because there isn’t one; technical solutions, common-sense & trust works very adequately. What’s the problem with NI & Eire border? There isn’t one.
