LePen victory looking more plausible than it did a few weeks ago. Would be Trump-like earthquake. twitter.com/politicoeurope/status/852756568667963392

Shock What does ^ mean?

Also - bet it's his elite and buddies, the average bod will be left to take their chances!

Ginger DH and I will be front and center at the tax protest in our area!

cozietoesie · 14/04/2017 21:00

Well done, Across.

cozietoesie · 14/04/2017 21:08

Have China or Russia been reported as saying anything about the alleged evacuation yet, Ginger?

Lweji · 14/04/2017 21:21

What are you telling your kids?

I usually talk about current events with 12 year old DS, but not sure I want to worry him about possible nuclear escalation between the US and North Korea. Or a possible war with Russia, which is more worrying as we are in Europe.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 14/04/2017 21:25

I'm waiting for dd to raise the issue.

GrouchyKiwi · 14/04/2017 21:26

My children are too small (5 and younger) so don't have to worry about that. But bellicose Russia is one of our considerations when DH and I talk about moving to NZ.

Those reports of evacuations are concerning. "Mostly people with criminal records."

7Days · 14/04/2017 21:29

Fuck. Can you actually believe it has come to the stage where 'what will we say to the kids' has been aired?

Those impeachment guys better get a move on

7Days · 14/04/2017 21:30

Maybe its all fir show with kim. An excuse to parade in front of his people and have a nice wee round up at the same time

There are few occasions when lying is even tolerable, let alone acceptable. Lying to youngsters in these circumstances is almost obligatory though.

Anything that happens IMO lands squarely on the doorstep of the GOP in Congress that sat by and did sweet fuck all when they could have removed him from office. It'll be a cold day in hell before I ever vote Republican. (to be fair, I've always opted Democrat, but that's not the point)
