It’s a lot more nuanced, with lots of conflicting issues, factors and opinions that need to be carefully assessed and balanced and intelligent decisions made, sometimes without fear nor favour of how it may affect your opinion polls.

    What Covid has demosntrated is that putting in idiots such as these who simply amplify what ‘Fred and Cleatus down the pub says’ is generally not very clever. Most issues will involve a lot more than we as the general public are aware of and individuals who actually know what the phuck they’re doing (regardless of political affiliation) is what we should be returning to.
    Well said

    Don't usually pay much attention to American politics but was listening to a bit on tv today.Seems that the other guy think is binden or something was obama back of the queue for Britian's vice president and seems he's not mad on us either big backer of Ireland in America that usually means not very friendly with Britian.Also does not like our Boris think trade deals with America not going to be as good as would have been with Donald sadly.Nothing we can do about it though so no point worrying about it.

    Used to feel sorry for the US population only having diddies to vote for, dumb and dumber, liar and loader etc etc but they vote for them and accept the system.

    Maybe Biden has done all the relevant calculations on his sons laptop as to the repercussions of a win or maybe a better financial option to lose.

    Apart from his crazy stance with the pandemic, The Donald has done pretty darn good for the good ol US of A, least amount of troops killed fighting needless and un-winnable wars, industry was on its uppers, illegal immigration reduced to the lowest numbers for decades, Arab countries falling over themselves to snuggle up with Israel, in fact the only people who seem a wee bit unhappy with the big mans success are Antifa and The BLM crackpots . Landslide victory for Mr Trump anything else will leave America in a right phukkin mess

    He obviously has some good advisors then because the man is an absolute lunatic. I say some good advisors because half of his staff are just ar5e lickers that are mostly scared of getting the sack.

    What was that he was wanting us to inject as a cure for Covid 19 again? His son was convinced it would put an end to the pandemic .......they are all fkn bonkers, the lot of them.
