  1. Why would you admit that you're part of the problem, when, for 70 years, you have the worlds biggest bully, America, telling you everything you do is absolutely perfect and fine and no one has to ever ever question it?

  2. I live in Bulgaria now. The average working family has 2 children on 1 wage and lives comfortably. In the "poorest" country in the EU. these "rich countries" are only rich on paper because of the hyper wealthy

  3.  @badgoogle9938  NO - they voted FOR Trump. They saw what Trump was offering and as a nation they overwhelmingly said I want to live in a Christian Theocracy in 1880 and that is THEIR choice.

  4. I have many Jewish friends over the years at one point, my best friend was Jewish. I absolutely hate the Israeli government and the Israeli state. I have many American friends, and I hate Donald Trump and the government lead. People and governments / states are different things.

  5.  @virtualal  Absolutley - We thought Am3ric4ns are decent modern advanced people and that was OUR mistake. We live in our civilised bubbles of modernity and democracy and we are COMPLETELY out of touch with the average Am3ric4n - you are 100% correct. The Am3ric4n people have chosen to live in a theocratic dictatorship in 1880 and I respect that - that is their choice. I hope they enjoy it.

  9.  @IRaoulDuke  I agree. If I lived in the US I would have my ticket booked out of there right now. BUT he told them what he wanted to do, no one was under ANY illusion, and they chose his vision and WE should respect that. It was not forthe US to tell the people of Afghanistan what government to have, and its not ours to tell the Am3ric4ns.

  10. WE MIGHT HAVE MORE COLORS OF MP's and sexes - but they all still went to private schools and Oxford University. The only reason we have more minorities... ...is there are more rich minority parents sending their kids to the very expensive private schools...

  11. YES I was sure Harris would win - but I ahve also said for 2 years that Am3ric4 has 2 economies - 1 for the top 25% and 1 for the rest. The top 25% are so wealthy the numbers look good but the average person is suffering. A guy in IT in California said to me the other day he buys milk "when he can afford, as a treat" WHAT...???

  13.  @PJH13  You are correct - NO ONE in Labour should show morals or dignity, they should panter to business at every opportunity "had undermined an investment in the UK". there isnt going to be any investment in the uk except data centres cos no one wants those - NO ONE is going to invest in Britain, its not oin the EU you have NO marjket

  14. 100% agree...!!!

  15.  @Unshou  " How did Trump's first stint as president work out economically?" He added about $8 trillion to the national debt to give the hyper rich tax cuts and his tariffs destroyed farming

  16. THE HOUSE OF LORDS should be a house of professionally experienced people - scientists, engineers, doctors, lawyers, charity workers, ex-homeless people, single mothers, economists, military, astronomers, philosophers. People that KNOW THINGS and not w4nkers who went to Eton and then Oxford and know a PM

  17. AM3RIC4NS MADE THE RIGHT DECISION [even if they made a terrible decision] - in a free and fair democratic election where everyone KNEW what Trump was offering - he won And he won the popular vote with over 50%. They decided this guy was BETTER than continuing centrist neoliberalism and maybe they are right, we [UK] choose lesser of 2 3v!ls and we have a pathetic Labout govt tinkering with numbers instead of radical reform. This is what the Am3ric4n people WANTED, this is their choice. Europe should accept US refugees.

  18. HE HAS WON THE POPULAR VOTE this is WHO Am3ric4 is - they knew who he was and they wanted what he had to offer. Whatever happens to them its what they WANTED. They were NOT "conned" or "tricked". For Europe its TIME TO ABANDON AM3RIC4...!!! The future is in. the East, with China and the South with India and Africa.

  19. ISRAEL ARE RAPIDLY LOSING THE PR BATTLE war crimes on the front of every newspaper and they just stopped and BEAT UP a BBC news team...!!!

  21. I think you're completely wrong. I think most people in the comments here are like me, I have never met a Jewish person I have not liked. At one company I worked at my best friend was a Jewish person. I *** hate the Isreali state and the Israeli government. You're just playing the antisemitism card, lumping everything together. My best friend in the world at the moment is American, I hate the American government. 50% of the Israeli population were out last week on the streets, protesting the Israeli government. But a Jewish person I know last week was accused of antisemitism online for criticising the Israeli government. And this is what you're doing, because it's convenient for you to Taras all with the same brush.

  22.  @notbaltic280  Thants not your point - its MY RIGHT to hate the Israeli government and it does not make me a bad person.

  24. AHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAA Does Am3ric4 care about the "special relationship" NO

  25. OF COURSE THE ISRAELIS ARE GOING TO MAKE COMPARISONS TO THE HOLAUCOST don't want to let that guilt trip go unused do you...??? "You must support us in our war crimes and genocide, if you don't we will bring up the Holocaust...!!!" I'm sorry - I was interested to listen to 50 minutes of his side of the issue - but he pulled the Holocaust card at the 3:30 mark - so that's the end of the conversation for me.

  27.  @gogs8166  I thought the Eva Peron ones were fantastic.

  28. CATEGORICALLY - LABOUR WILL NOT BE A SUCCESS Not for the reasons people in the comments are saying - but because Starmer has ZERO VISION They need to be astonishingly radical to change things - I mean banning private landlords to stop them sucking the life out of the economy level radical. The new workers rights bill was PATHETIC, welcome but NOTHING radial and you can not fix a collapsing country with tinkering - and disappointed angry voters will go to Reform...!!!

  29.  @jon4139  My initial reaction was to be di5gu5ted with Am3ric4ns. But seeing that 16 million fewer people voted this year than in the middle of a pandemic made me think about it. Trump didnt win more votes, people did not turn out for an offer of "MORE NEOLIBERALISM" a month ago an IT worker in California said to me 'I like to buy milk as a treat, when I can afford it" That was the thing that shook me and made me realise how BAD things wor for working people in the US. MILK AS A TREAT WHEN YOU CAN AFFORD IT...??? Not an unemployed mother of 2 - an IT worker in California...!!! I think many people have just had enough and like Brexit they think "it cant get any worse than this" but obviously it can...

  30. But you're happy with genocidal Israelis...???

  31. The number of paid Israeli bots on British news report comments is weirdly way higher than there are on the American news comments. I don't know if they don't think they have to win the argument in America, but they do in Britain and the rest of the world??

  32. This was my comment: [...] For Europe its TIME TO ABANDON AM3RIC4...!!! The future is in. the East, with China and the South with India and Africa. The Am3ric4n empire ended about 4 years ago and its time we accepted that.

  35.  @danst35  NATO has not been real for 20 years - Putin was right on that. The US would NEVER fight a major W for Europe

  36. I RESPECT AM3RIC4S DECISION Neoliberalism has made life for 75% of people MUCH worse and Am3ric4 has said "we would rather have Trump who will smash it all up - than continue" The UK chose the "lesser of 2 3vils" and we have a pathetic, utterly pathetic Labout govt tweaking figures for an extra 1 Penny of a pint of beer as the country collapses. We will see who is right Ive been saying for 2 years the US has 2 economies - the 1 for the top 25% and the rest. The 1 for the top 25% is doing SO WELL it makes the numbers look great, meanwhile an IT guy in California said to me "he buys milk as a luxury when he can afford it...!!!

  38. One commentator said if you want to know who is in the right, and who's in the wrong, scrub out the names, Israel and Palestine, put in A and B, and then retail the exact same story, as if it was the script for a movie. We'd all be cheering for the oppressed, people, living in a concentration camp, fighting for freedom...

  42. They just stopped and beat the sh!t out of a group of BBC journalists, its on the BBC website. Israel appears to be doing everything it can to lose the PR battle.

  43. ITS NOT TRUE the King can call a general election if he believes that Liz Truss does NOT have the support of her MP's but they are not doing anything cos they don't want a GE

  44. I think that point has come, the Arab nations have been moving away from America, as much as people like think Iran is a backwards, dirt road and donkey country. It's not it's a very very sophisticated country. Very technologically advanced. With a massive military. Thought to be the largest producer of unmanned drones in the world at the moment... I think this ends in catastrophic war, and it will be America's fault. America has prevented anybody from intervening to ensure peace between Israel and Palestine, they pumped billions and billions of dollars of weapons into Israel.

  45.  @rhobatbrynjones7374  What is the American government permanently in gridlock and nothing gets done resulting in the country stagnating in 1980...??? THATS your answer. Sure Brexit was a stupid idea - pushed by the people who WANTED TO GET ELECTED - but it happened. It would NEVER have happened in America cos NOTHING ever happens in America. 85% of people want gun control - does it ever happen??? THAT is why "the English have such a problem with the principle of democracy". "If these people wish to contribute to debate in the legislature, they can stand for election like everyone else." But they will only get elected if they have LOTS of money behind them, which means donations, that means a puppet, that means NO EXPERTS. THAT is why "the English have such a problem with the principle of democracy". The principle of democracy elects the biggest idiots with the most money behind them - ERGO Donald Trump.

  46. I switched off when he pulled out the Holocaust card immediately... I'm sorry, that's just trying to guilt trip, the audience into sympathy with your position.

  47. Vlad Vexler was exceptionally good in his "why I thought trump would win" - and he analysed it from a historical perspective. He said we are moving inexorably from a position of democracy and trust in institutions to failing democracy and less trust and every year it will get worse until it hits a nexus that changes the direction. Trump was elected because society is changing

  48. Never believe the Israelies in a peace negotiation, they want Palestinians' annihilation 100%....Their hatred for Muslims, Arabs and atheists is also 100%....WAKE UP > to the rightists who believe they can engage in dialogue with the enemy, that is VERY NAIVE.
