RE: UK/EU Brexit agreement goes down in flames - 2

I was hoping Mrs May would lose the confidence vote. Mr Corbyn would win the following general election. He would totally fuck up the country which in turn would allow me to make a grab for power and become The Chancellor of The Fourth Reich........ Europe would have had to watch out then

I had hoped this forum would largely be free of Brexit posts as it is difficult to find a place to avoid the topic.

---

A rare serious note from me -

Come on you guys. Have some respect for our British colleagues. Let's not do the tabloid stuff here. I mean, do you want them to start a thread about the Trump reality TV show? Or, do you get fed up with the constant media barrage and look to your motorcycle and fellow riders for diversion? ....

OK..., now you've forced me to take a therapeutic ride in the slush, and flush and clean everything when I get back.

---

Seeing as you mention it, how is the ongoing stand off going there in the US of A, who will win?, i'm interested and in the winter there is little traffic on here so it at least gives something fresh to read.

If our countries news offends, don't read, simple

Since you asked: The latest daily drama is that the Speaker of the House told the President that he couldn't come to Congress in person to give his yearly State of the Union address as long as the "partial government shutdown" is on. In return, Mr. Trump told the Speaker that she couldn't use a government aircraft to visit a number of countries in Europe and in the Middle East, which she had planned to do in a few days. Other than that sort of stuff, no one is willing to talk to each other about their differences, such as funding the Wall and a third of the government. This kind of crap is hardly as complicated as solving the UK's problems. Other than that, I just don't know what to say, other than we seem to have idiots running around on this side of the Pond.

Here we have two levels of government, the main government and the silly rule blockers called House of Lords, who mainly sleep all day and have to be checked frequently to ensure they haven't expired.

It seems from a layman's view that the USA has three levels of government, one being the main house, then the senate, then the house of representatives, what i know about USA policy you could write on a pin head, this looks far more complicated than ours, so please enlighten us.

Congress can get rid of the president. They can but it is not at all easy to do, especially if the members vote strictly according to their party loyalty, which is what they almost always do.

It’s slightly bemusing how we think our governments actually run the the show.

A neat summary from the NY Times:-

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/17/opini...gk0Myo1LbWQrRqw

Puppets on someone’s string Yoda.

We had three elections in as many years. If your a PM with a majority of 60, why would you call a General Election, you wouldn’t. But some else did, then got Mrs May to malign an awful campaign in order to lose her majority so much that she gets a small NI party to prop her up. Choreographed. If the PM had her majority we’d be out of Europe quicker than it takes them to fill in an expensises form. It sold a lot a mainstream media and filled tv time by 1:4. Do you own research on that word, I’ve traced it as far as the USSR when they gave up there balken states to Europe then gave up communism to then become Russia, giving more power, more money and more countries to Brussels and the other place to run all countries with a so called free market and free border labour crossers.

Mr Farage knew Brussels and the other place was trying to centralise power and money. By moving a parliament for Europe between two countries for a start, he soon went quiet and only concentrated on immigration after someone loosened his Volvos wheel nuts then cut the brakes on his plane, on Election Day!

Listen carefully to these past and present so called laudable politicians and they are trying to tell you something.

Deep thoughts, as I say do your own research, my two cents was it was a test that went wrong and they are making us pay, endure it for years, then say another vote, or a deal which still makes no sense, but boom where still in. As I’ve said before, nothing will change, subversive fear to the believers and worriers. Don’t worry. Be Happy.
Do your own research, but not on the first page of your search engine.

I don't know about anywhere else, but in the U.S. right now they ought to bring back dueling. That is one way to solve a deadlock between two political parties.
