US Politics

'Lead'?
Get with the program, US forces have been using munitions tipped with depleted Uranium, (DU), for a generation, (despite knowing the associated health risks).

So, who's up for the pub? Might as well get a few pints in before we are vaporised.

Easts is tonight if you can wait till then. I think it will actually be happening this week.

Trump doesn't actually start till January. Then it will take at least a week to get all his IT working, so I reckon we're OK for the moment.

Well we know that Foffa has already dibsed the world's whole supply of Unobtainium so we'll just have to make do with what we can scavenge.

i hope they keep the red button away from trump till he finishes getting drunk and partying

Troubling as it is, he's tee total like George W was...

george " dui " bush ?

Corbyn comes up with a slightly weird garbled response

I think that's pretty much bang fucking on personally.

^^^ doesn't seem weird or garbled to me?

LMAO

Some of the comments read just like the shit brexiters over here. "Get over it, you lost" kinda shit.

I like the ending especially - we need to work together for peace, dealing with climate change, and economic justice. Those are the top global issues for humans (not just humans.)

(Not sarc - I like it)

I'm calling it now, in 2017 Russia will invade Ukraine. The USA won't intervene.

Dolan will be providing aerial support...

garbled response

How so?

Putin will be happy

Except sanity!

Are you assuming the US would intervene (outside of UN sanctioned events) under Clinton?

Measured...seeing cause and effect and what we must to avoid that road.

I notice this shitshow doesn't have a pithy nickname like brexit.

can I table: #mexit

#trumpocalypse ?

#democracy ?

doesn't seem weird or garbled to me?

Don't know about weird or garbled but he's wrong about it being a rejection of an economic system that isn't working for most people.

Is it too much to expect politicians to fact check basic things before jumping to conclusions?

I agree with most of it but this wasn't the poor and disenfranchised sending a message to the liberal elite, so can we knock that one on the head now please.

just go onto the guardian comments - there are a million arseholes on there trying to come up with the next catchy nickname...
