The Official Politics Thread (enter at your own risk)

[Come On You Irons]

There. Resident WHO political commentators and gurus can knock yourselves out in here and conduct your endless bickering. All other threads will be locked.

When everyone realizes just how good the USA has it under Trumps policies the U K will follow.

Eurozone will probably stay buried in Socialism.  But they will start paying their fair share to NATO now, no more free loading off the U S taxpayer. Which I like!

I’m looking forward to DOGE cutting Gov’t wasteful spending. Ideally I’d like to see the U S pull some of the hand outs we give to countries that don’t toe the line.

I expect Iran to quiet down and Trump has already warned the BRICS nations of heavy sanctions if they pursue De Dollarization. India has already fallen in line. So that’s good news.

Mexico have been warned if they don’t stop the flow of migrants through Mexico they will get hit with heavy sanctions, So you can expect a much better effort from the Mexicans, Looks like they might pay for the wall after all if they don’t fall in line. But we all know they will fall in line, they have no choice.

Drill baby Drill will bring down energy prices for WTI crude. Hopefully Brent crude will follow, OPEC loses its influence once  more.
That will help with inflation, which will give us lower Interest rates which in turn will reduce the ridiculous trillion dollars per year plus we are currently paying on interest on our 36 trillion dollars debt. 

Feds cutting short term rates but the long term rates are continuing to climb, Look at the 10 year T-Bill chart if you don’t believe me. People seem to be in search of yield instead of safety which would explain why Bonds are being dumped causing long term yields to go up as money is moving into risk on assets like equities. With tax reform we can all expect more capital investment from venture capitalists which will drive growth too.

interesting to see how it all shakes out but optimism is back for the working man and that’s a good thing

MAGA!

Its Joey O'Bidenopolous, Greece's favourite son.

[only1billybonds]

Joey O' Biden has another 37 days in office. He can pardon a lot of people in that time,thus covering up a lot of the nefarious shit he was involved in.

[Hammer and Pickle]

He’s president elect and it’s him who’s handing out the pardons to the Capitol Hill rioters and to himself if necessary. Will you actually be trying to make out he’s the victim for his whole term in office? I’m

Rio I k ow it’s gonna be great TV to watch the admissions on air and in court.

wait until the new director of the FBI cleans house of the Obama policies and Obama faithful.

DEI is already being discontinued in campuses and with some big corporations.

and the Dept of Education getting dismantled will be a huge win too.

Give it 2 years and you’ll see a super majority in the house and senate once everyone sees just how much better off they are 


MAGA!

[riosleftsock]

It was one of the most ridiculous cases against him.  

You can expect more and more of these cases being overturned, damages paid and some of these scum ruined in civil courts.

Keep an eye on which "innocent" people are given pre-emptive blanket pardons, that will tell you a lot about who has been weaponised against him.

[Nutsin]

ABC network have settled with Trump out of court for lies told by one of their political pundit George Stepanapoulous (spelling)  for lying about Trump on air.

$15,000.000 was the amount.

yet another win!

winners win!

MAGA!

Fuck your feelings!

Syria looks like it's going to be a good place to holiday soon. An open-top tourist bus tour around Damascus 

I'm not shelling out for that.

Kemi Badenoch slagging off the great British sandwich.  Of course, Kier Starmer has to wade in to prove how patriotic he is by defending it. If only our political leaders had more important things to worry about. Still, after making a song and dance about being anti woke, Kemi is doing a piss poor job of trying to win back Reform voters, attacking British culture.

Bench crew understands this.

Nice to see WHO going old skool and effectively creating a Victorian-era asylum for political debate, which contains you all in Bedlam rather than out there [points to rest of WHO] with the rest of us Care in the Community nutbags.

I could make a bad joke about Thatcher de-institutionalising to save money. But I won't. Except that I have - and it was bad.

I shall visit you all once in a while, in the style of a deluded Victorian gent observing the criminal classes while you try to hurl shit at me (and each other).

Good day to you, sirs, and the very best of luck with this social experiment. [Tips hat]. Jeeves, away with us...to the Carlton Club for supper with the loopnuts from the Lopetegui thread...

[northbankboy68]

Starmer is a weak man.  He believes that continuing to harm the UK is preferable to joining the Single Market.

Not a fan of 30p Lee but understood a woman posted women have to deal with child birth, periods , menopause etc & what do men have to deal with?
His response was about the Somme 
Ridiculous but had a point re men getting killed in wars I suppose 

30p lee

typical lefty

[Leavemyarcelona]

Speaking of the Reform weirdos, what do people think about Lee Anderson's latest bizarre comment that women can't complain about child birth pains because men have to deal with the battle of the Somme?

He is not wrong

The pain of getting kicked in the bollocks is something women will never know (Unless you use the BBCs definition of a woman).

He should have replied with a single word: women

With Reform ahead of Labour in the polls, do you think they could win the next General Election?



 

Except they're not.

Left wing politco? Really

[Leavemyarcelona]

Nice to see all the posters who HATE politics threads all posting on here and enjoying banter and fun.

Funny that.

Anyways, what do YOU think about Musk getting involved with funding political parties in the UK, especially reform? Or Nick Candy joining Reform and giving them a shit ton of money.  With Reform ahead of Labour in the polls, do you think they could win the next General Election?

If they did, in my opinion, Farage would not make a great PM, Rupert Lowe would be our best bet (IMHO)

 

 

Im 50/50 with farage, especially when he through TR under the bus and got rid of Ben Habib. Is he trying to tow the msm propaganda line? I agree with you on Rupert Lowe he speaks well and sounds promising. But they all do until they get in power. The only genuine mps i like and resemble is Lee Anderson and Suella Braverman. Reform are certainly looking the better option then the 2 main parties
