@OpenSourceZone Nominating DSA retаrds isn’t a good look I’d imagine. Dems won in 2018 because they nominated moderates.

@visegrad24 Not surprising. Denmark is the only country in Europe that has a normal left party. The rest are globalist, and they wonder why they lose to the “far-right”

BREAKING: Denmark’s new socialist Immigration Minister Morten Bødskov announces that he’ll ban the Islamic call to prayer He says that “parts of the country shouldn’t feel like a suburb of Islamabad” The Red-Green alliance isn’t as strong in Denmark as in other parts of Europe

@1980Khoa @EricLDaugh “We” didn’t. 0.03% of people in the UK brought this clown in. That’s like if Trump and Vance both resigned and the Speaker became president.

@EricLDaugh Trump knows that the UK is a joke. They keep electing one clown after another.

🚨 LMFAO! Q: A new UK Prime Minister will be installed soon. Do you want to be the first person on his list to visit the country? PRESIDENT TRUMP: "No."

@RedBSierra Sigh… Why am I not surprised…

Meanwhile in the Yookay hospital of Wales

@liukangjew Perrito gratis, porque tarde o temprano te verás obligado a comértelo.

politicas de izquierda be like "todos tienen un perrito" efectos de segundo orden: - campo de concentración para reproducirlos - limite a un perro por familia - desabastecimiento de alimento - si escondes perritos sos fusilado - hambruna canina - 50 millones de perritos muertos

@DelusionPosting These same people laugh when their same kind murder your kids on the streets or rape them. Don’t feel sorry.

@eurofounder Don’t talk that way about black people. They are our gods and goddesses, you heathen.

USA thinking they can win the World Cup is so funny Americans are simply too soft to be treated seriously in any sport American "football" is a joke. Grown men wearing helmets and leggings, just to stop every 10 seconds. Zero continuous action Basketball even worse. Overpaid African American men jogging back and forth, substituting every 5 minutes Then baseball. Bunch of chubby homosexuals standing around in white pajamas. Just ridiculous Europe will always be superior in any sport that requires endurance and actual skill

@nico_of_lions @VicSpinei When your meme only applies to like 5% of a population, then it’s not a good meme. Remember, “millions” in the US is, like, 1%.

@axeman4ty @VicSpinei In America, millions live in mobile houses. In Europe only a few thousand do, although we have a much higher population.

Americans keep laughing that Europe has no AC. Fair. But we have cold plunges, saunas, shade, stone walls, late dinners, and the strange ability to walk outside in summer without crossing a car park the size of Belgium. Civilisation comes in flavours.

@anglofuturist Most of us in Wales used to think this too. The referendum in 1979 failed 80-20. That was before we had 10 years of Thatcher’s disastrous policies forced upon us and killing our industries. The successful 1997 referendum was outrage against that.

Devolution is shit, and we should be reversing it. We are not a large country, too much decentralisation will be a bad thing. You won't end up with Japanese-style prefectures. You'll have 100 "metro mayors", who are accountable to 100 "regional assemblies", and nothing gets done.

@ResidentOfSound Agreed, one thing the US needs to do better are more options for travel. Yeah, cars and planes are great, and personally I’m a car bloke now, but rail can cut down congestion on both the roadways and the airways.

I really don't get the reasoning of some Americans about this, like 'muh, we are rich, we have got planes' So what?! E.g. the distance from Lyon to Marseille in France is approximately the distance from Boston to NYC. Amtrak takes 3h40min, by plane it is 1.5h, the French do the distance in 1.5h from city center to city center (!), with stops in between (!) and without TSA bullshit. It is not about money, it is actually more convenient.

@ACEaceACE4ce Global poverty line is $3 a day. The lowest US poverty line is at $16,000. Not anywhere near the same ballpark. Debt to wealth is irrelevant. Wealth isn’t economic activity; GDP is. The idea behind debt is investing it and having the economic returns pay it back.

@axeman4ty In a country with highest GDP it's a disgrace. 1 of 10 people below the global poverty line. GLOBAL. And you haven't got the correct numbers on US debt US debt - 90.93% of total wealth France - 57% UK - 5.9% Canada: 31%

You read the statistics wrong. And no, the debt does not match the economy.

@thecyrusjanssen I had to wait 4 weeks to get an appointment with my GP at NHS in Wales for an ulcer because it wasn’t “medically necessary,” then another 6 months to see a specialist and actually start treatment. I’d rather pay than go through those 7 months again.

Fun Fact: the United States is the ONLY country in the World Cup that does NOT have universal healthcare 🇮🇷 Iranians have universal healthcare 🇸🇦 Saudis has universal healthcare 🇲🇦 Morocco has universal healthcare Every single one of the 48 countries playing in the World Cup have Universal Healthcare except the one hosting it But the US does have the only trillionaire 🤦🏻‍♂️

@TomEDewey1948 Mostly agree. Peak American cities > Peak British cities For rural: British countryside > American rural towns American wilderness > British wilderness British suburbs are better planned, American suburbs are more comfortable

An irl friend and I had a conversation a while ago. To summarize it, here is what we said: American cities > British cities Rural America < Rural Britain American suburbs = British suburbs Real?

Yes.. It’s called “I’m from Wales, grew up there, and still have family there, as I had for millennia,” you absolute plank. Yet these same people will see a Sudanese migrant fresh off a dink and claim they’re more Welsh than me.

@SaorAlbannach While I agree that saying “ethnically British” is cringe… You’re still of British nationality. When was the last time you travelled out of the country using a Scottish passport, or received advice/assistance from the Embassy of Scotland?

'But the Scots ARE british' is absolutely tiresome chat. Do the Spanish go on about the Portuguese also being Iberian? Just because we're still chained to Westminster, that doesn't make us the same. Perhaps if the English showed a similar warmth to us, they wouldn't shut pubs.

@DemetaeCymru England is 85% of the UK population, Scotland voted to remain in the UK, and Wales barely voted for devolution even after getting destroyed by Thatcherism. There isn’t much Celtic unity.

The benefit of a Celtic Alliance. All three devolved governments face constraints from Westminster. Acting together will reduce isolation and increase negotiating strength, thus exerting far more influence than each acting alone. Strength in unity!

@TomEDewey1948 The Tory circus show was doomed no matter what. Boris might’ve given us a more straightforward plan than May, but even in 2016 the financial fundamentals weren’t there for a clean breakaway. Then Covid came and destroyed any little hope for UK recovery.

Hindsight, this was a mistake on David Cameron's part. He promised the referendum and he should have stuck it out to deal with the mess. Preferably, I would rather have had Boris Johnson. However, David Cameron > Theresa May. twitter.com/tenyearsnow/st…
