    I wouldn't have a problem with Harris assuming the mantle, she seems competent, which the past two POTY's have struggled with. But I'm not sure the US voters would be so supportive. I'm not sure they are ready for a woman POTY let alone a first Blasian one. She was picked as VP by Biden as a shield against assassination on this basis after all.
    Suspect Tricky only identified a comparison between Harris and Abbott for one reason and one reason alone which speaks volumes.

    Being potentially the first woman President, let alone a Black/Asian woman, is - sadly - something that I fear will polarise Americans even more than the current far Right Republicans v far from Left wing Democrats and fuel the bigotry which Trump/Vance/MAGA supporters already thrive off.

    You can suspect all you like, buffoonary comes in all sizes and colours, don't play that card with me.

    She has made a right fiasco of the US borders, with over 10M pouring in, since her watch. The irony being, she has now put some of Trumps restrictions back in place. God you sound like Meghan Markle at times, it really is pathetic.
    Can't get my own way, so I'll drop the race card in there. Its something Harris loves to do as well.

    Lol…it does indeed Tricky. Your immediate and instantaneous response was to compare Harris with Abbott. No one else…just Abbott…and yet what do they have in common other than both being, coincidentally of course, black, female politicians?
    Harris is not particularly left wing. She is not given to gaffes. She is a high achiever and, contrary to your suggestion, far from stupid and yet you couldn’t help your instant, unthinking comparison.
    As has been said before…if you repeatedly sound like a racist and act like a racist then the chances are…..well you know the rest.

    Lol, OK Meghan, you use that all you like. i can't be a priNcess, so you ARE all racist

    BTW, the woman herself uses the coconut tree emblem on her tweets.
    The last time she ran for the office, she pulled out as only 4% wanted her. Shes a weapon in its loosest terms and failed miserably in the only 2 tasks given her. Biden kept her on a leash for a reason

    But then Thicky seems to think Farage (who has never accomplished much on his own account) is laudable, yet refers to Harris as that "African woman", when in fact she is of Indian and Caribbean heritage!

    I mean we know Farage is a racist, we know he tells lies and falsehoods and now he has proven what we already knew.

    Still I guess if your a racist, misogynist and a believer in conspiracy theories, a racist egotistical liar is the kind of person one would follow.

    He says she's never visited the border, wonder if he's visited Clacton since election day. What's he getting involved for, Looks like in his visit to support Trump he never even saw him. Hope the trip wasn't on expenses.

    Even said on camera he was going to meet the Orang Utan. It didn't happen. He is no longer of use to the Utan so it's bye bye Farridge

    Indeed, the 'Pubs put their money on labelling Biden as "the old man". Now who's the "old man".

    "Of course I’m biased, as - given the chance - I’d vote for Biden’s corpse rather than Trump, "

    You don't even need to be biased to make that choice !! But fair enough, you admitted it ☺️
