🤣

To be fair there's an awful lot of that on MN! Who needs facts?

It’s horrible out there. I’m currently in an argument with a poster as to whether reform is a racist party.

I saw my first awful comment on our local Facebook group page today. It was heartening that the next 10 comments were calling them out for it.

Oh I'm sure that's a question many of us have spent hours pondering 🤔 🧐

Leave them to it, Cardi. Stick to this thread for a while.

@PandoraSox and @bombastix you are correct and wise.
The poster is now trying to convince me something about parliamentary procedure. I’m not entirely sure what. Think it’s time to walk away.

Katie Price has been arrested at Heathrow for not turning up to her court date. This bodes well for TR’s return.

It's time to wheel out the 'alternative facts', a kind gift from the heart of the Trump White House. Don't like this fact? Fine, try this instead. Let it go cardi, it's like poking an aching tooth, it doesn't help and just makes you feel worse. Bloody annoying though.

Too true.

Am I the only one who misread Katie Hopkins?

😂😂😂

These things happen.

I'm very happen to see the pigeon meme come back out.

It's always been one of my favourites!

Has anyone seen Trumps latest?

At some public speaking thing and instead of saying "I'll do x for the country so vote for me because ....."

The whole things is (paraphrased)

"Well she won't do an interview."
"She's no good at interviews"
"Do you think I'm doing this and not her because she just can't manage it"

I honestly don't know how anyone takes him seriously.

Is there is any point in attempting to understand Trump and his deranged supporters? They've constructed their own reality and are trying to suck us all in to it. Can't expect reason where there is none. Fingers crossed enough US voters feel the same.

<cough> Brexit <cough>

Quite. Whence reason has fled.

To quote Harris's rather splendid running mate and your username ' 'they are weird'

If I was in the US I wouldn't care if Harris wasn't 'the best' - her running mate is rather good I feel and both are far more palatable than Trump- who votes for a convicted felon, a fraudster, possible sex offender, an absolute narcisstic egomaniac etc? The GOP should be ashamed he was even allowed to be nominated

Dodging interviews- now who could anyone have learnt that from? See UK Prime Ministers between 2016 and 2022.

To quote Harris's rather splendid running mate and your username ' 'they are weird'

I've seen a few US commentators emphasize that this isn't playground name calling - it's then followed up with an example of what weird looks like - for example a rather unsettling fascination with inspecting childrens genitals before they play sport (Kansas). ? That is just weird.

Express forgetting they live in Farages arse

lol. That was at 17% yes when I voted yesterday. Good work Twitter.

Arrests up to 595 now

If anyone wants to assist that poll, here's a link that doesn't provide clicks for the Express. You don't have to put your email in, that's optional.
