Regardless of race, when people vote for a party and that party wins an election the voters have reasonable expectation that the party they voted for will govern. Keep a straight face while you tell me this farce isn’t losing the Republicans support.

It’s all the kind of stuff you can find in those rightwing echo chambers.

Tell me how this shambles is going to govern anything, they can’t govern themselves. The hate and division they bought into and promoted has come home to roost. ‘Decent Republicans’ are there any left and if there are, who do they get as a leader?

Nonsense. Democrat Left Agenda, is right of anything you’re used to in NZ or UK. The Democrat Affordable Care Act (Tagged Obama Care) is hugely popular, and just one example of the public wanting more social programs. As stated above, many Republican voters are very pleased to receive Government support but object to others receiving it.

6 to 5. Expats are 100% more likely to have escaped the mess post Brexit is.

I’m not sure what all this ‘McCarthy Humiliated’ is about. Surely he’s used to humiliation by now, Pelosi has spent the past four years humiliating him on a daily basis.

I borrowed a friends bike and Garmin Radar to give it a try, I found it more of a distraction than a help. To me the biggest danger is taking your eyes off the road ahead, with this in mind I start my ‘Polar’ head unit as I leave town and switch it off again when I arrive back at the town boundary. I do not want to be distracted when I’m traffic. Strava tells me I rode just over 14,000km last year, 11,000 of which were in Thailand. I plan my routes to avoid traffic, very seldom do I ride on main or busy roads and when riding in town I go at a very slow pace. In over 20 years of cycling in Thailand I’ve had four accidents, once knocked off by a dog, brought down by motorbike cutting in front of me and two ‘pile up’ accidents while racing. That’s comparable with my accident rate in Europe. Choose quiet roads, keep your eyes and ears open and of course wear a helmet.

Don’t misunderstand this as a failure, crippling Government processes is a prime objective of the GOP. It’s a GOP victory before the new term starts.

I’m up for it but I suspect whataboutary, dead cats and semantics from Brexiteers might take the line.

Before messing with the Good Friday Agreement, the UK will await instruction from Washington as to what is permissible.

The image on the right has had it’s colour manipulated.

Once infected with anti-vax / anti-public health fever then there really is no cure.

Projection being firmly planted on the right.

But the UK didn’t have to leave the EU to issue ‘Blue Passports’. Arguably the only tangible BREXIT benefit was not actually a BREXIT benefit.

Perhaps some of the £350,000,000 per week should have arrived on the BREXIT bus by now. Put that towards wage increases to keep NHS staff in work rather than having to strike to get their pay to keep pace with inflation. Brexiteers will of course support this, increased wages for working people was a claimed BREXIT bonus. Of course nobody really expected working people to get a pay ride out of a Tory Government without fighting for it. Next up: We can’t see the benefits of Brexit, they’ve been wiped out by strikes. ‘Jam tomorrow’, ‘warm sunlight uplands’ just over the horizon. Meanwhile UK food price inflation hits 13.3%, of course workers are demanding wage rises that keep up with inflation, they have families to feed, clothe and provide a home for. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/jan/04/record-133-uk-food-inflation-raises-fears-of-another-difficult-year

I think it was meant as a compliment. It certainly comes across that way.

I’d advise a little more humility, it’ll leave space between what you think you know and what you decidedly do not.

The DOJ are on it. Jack be nimble, Jack be quick.

Which might make sense were it not for multiple polls indicating the public are moving away from Brexit support. If people thought the UK should remain outside of the EU they would not be supporting another referendum, they’d simply say it’s done and dusted. Stop pretending otherwise.

I suspect it’s something to do with BREXIT being a Pyrrhic Victory. To bastardize Plutarch: ‘One more victory like that and we’ll be ruined.’

BREXIT, that ‘great British victory’ the ‘victors’ don’t like talking about.

You m an there is no update. If that gives you comfort that Trump will not face Justice, let that be enough for now.

Be patient. If I can be, so can you.

So what does the poll at the top of this thread tell us?

Show us the way, point out a few tangible benefits that mark the path.
