In the news

Well in, Jackson.

Jim O'Neill has resigned from the cabinet. strange that Laura Kuenssberg didn't arrange for his resignation live on air.

Ha, that's so funny lol

I don't get it

Fucking cyclists always running reds

Why?

Also, you can enter fake details quite easily.

Next level outrage culture; post cartoon on FB and get killed.

You can find the cartoon if you look around. There's no way it could offend anyone, but the guy who posted it was an atheist so... genetic fallacy ensues.

Extremists are offended by anything and some groups actively egg them on. Atheists are killed in Bangladesh just for being atheist :/

The presidential debate is full looney tunes.

This bit was great:

And I think Secretary Clinton and myself would agree very much, when you look at what ISIS is doing with the internet, they're beating us at our own game. ISIS. So we have to get very, very tough on cyber and cyber warfare. It is a, it is a huge problem. I have a son.
He's 10 years old. He has computers. He is so good with these computers, it's unbelievable.

He also appeared to have a bit of a Colombian cold.

Or he just had a regular cold and combined with his strange non sequiturs, it just gave the impression of one.

"diet pills"

So so good.

NY Times suggested his non sequiteurs might be a 'flight of ideas'.

Manics display something called “flight of ideas.” It’s a formal thought disorder in which ideas tumble forth through a disordered chain of associations. One word sparks another, which sparks another, and they’re off to the races. As one trained psychiatrist said to me, compare Donald Trump’s speaking patterns to a Robin Williams monologue, but with insults instead of jokes.

christ, he really is a solid gold moron. and the morons want one of their own to lead them.

You've just summed up politics: People vote for people "like them" :)

So a Russian Buk missile is confirmed as bringing down flight MH17... What now?

Russian supplied, not Russian state launched.

UK selling arms to SA to commit war crimes in yemen still a-ok.

/not helping

It was always a Russian Buk.

I don't understand what part of this is new information...

That they have proof it was brought from and taken back to Russian soil.
