Even if you disagreed vehemently with that, and found it childish and provocative, it's just a gentle troll - and no grounds for a 'flag', except to try and discredit it and show you disagree with it.

You couldn't have done Brexit without Wales #justsaying
Edit - I was wondering if it was a good idea to give @TSE yet another reason to hate the Welsh, but since he hates us all anyway I suppose it won't make much difference.
From the EU's perspective, it is much better to respect the UK's sovereign decision to exit the club, while pointing its members and the rest of the world to the Faragist fiscally incontinent Kamikwazi outcomes that become possible.
The Kwarteng budget was entirely independent of Brexit and actually was the diametric opposite of the desired positions of the Leave campaign.
Nonsense, it was the wet dream of Farage, Redwood and their ilk, thankfully now consigned to the dustbin of political history

The approved narrative amongst the excessively-online remainers is that it was English retirees moving to Wales wot done it :-)

I don't hate the Welsh, I don't like Welsh rugby fans.

The two are more or less indistinguishable.
There is one person in a small hamlet just outside Llanfair Careinion who has been heard to say rude things about rugby, but she is responding well to treatment and there are hopes of a full cure.
A top MEP has been suspended from her party after police launched an investigation into alleged illicit lobbying activities by Qatar, in what threatens to blow up into a major crisis at the heart of the European Union.
Belgian police searched 16 homes and detained at least four people in and around Brussels on Friday as part of an inquiry into what prosecutors called “criminal organization, corruption and money laundering,” as first reported by Belgian media and confirmed to POLITICO by Belgian federal police.
European Parliament vice-president Eva Kaili, from the Greek socialist party Pasok, was said to be among those detained.
It's what happens when decisions are based on populism. Views are easily expressed but have no depth.
Decisions based on populism can have a number of negative consequences. One problem with populism is that it often involves appealing to the emotions and prejudices of the public, rather than relying on facts and evidence to make decisions. This can result in policies and decisions that are not well thought out and may not be in the best interests of the public. Additionally, populist leaders may be more interested in gaining and maintaining power than in governing effectively, which can lead to corruption and abuses of power. Finally, populism often involves pitting one group of people against another, which can create divisions and conflicts within a society.
Text book description of late Toryism, 2016 to date.
'Populist' movements by definition spring up where Governments make decisions against the views or even the interests of the general populace.
'Popular' Government - by the people, for the people, works extremely well; it's what they have in Switzerland, which has done a lot better economically and socially than its EU neighbours.
Switzerland has one of the wealthiest and most educated populations in the world, which reduces the risk of extremist populism
No, what eliminates that risk is that the population rules already. If there's a controversial issue (like whether to allow the building of minarets) they have a vote. They voted against minarets, so no minarets. That's it, end of.
Mbappe has been successfully shackled, but we’re still getting well beaten here.
England have been the better team. France only scored because we were scrambling after the ref didn't give a foul in the French third. Should have had a penalty too.

I would gently suggest the better team is the one that wins.

Colonel: Oh, er... seven thousand infantry, six hundred artillery, and er, two divisions of paratroops.
Luigi: Paratroops, Dino.
Dino: Be a shame if someone was to set fire to them.
Colonel: Set fire to them?
Luigi: Fires happen, Colonel.
Dino: Things burn.
Stop that. It's silly.
DINSDALE!!!!!!!!!!
He was quite a chap, man.
“…they began to operate what they called 'The Operation'… They would select a victim and then threaten to beat him up if he paid them the so-called protection money. Four months later they started another operation which they called 'The Other Operation'. In this racket they selected another victim and threatened not to beat him up if he didn't pay them. One month later they hit upon 'The Other Other Operation'. In this the victim was threatened that if he didn't pay them, they would beat him up. This for the Piranha brothers was the turning point.”
Is the single transferable vote preferable to the alternative vote?
Yes, because the former approximates to being proportional by dint of the multi-member seats, whereas the latter can be less proportional even than FPTnP
Bottom line, the object of the game is to get the ball into the net at the other end of the pitch, and if we can’t achieve that in an hour and a half of running about, we don’t deserve to win.

If they want a referendum, they get it. HYUFD would do well to consider that.

Trois lions sur une chemise
Peter Walton said it wasn't a foul so it is all moot.
France are a better team, but if we're getting all the bad refereeing decisions as well we have no chance.
At times like these you have to be grateful that the French don’t play cricket.
Seen the replay, certainly more of a foul than Odegaard on Eriksen at old Trafford in September.
But we need to remember that FIFA never wanted VAR, which is why they introduced this hobbled version of it.

Normally that does the trick.

Unless it's Yorkshire CCC of course.
In later years they worked for the DfE…
Will wonders never cease.
A bit like the refs in this game.
Still, that's the third time it hasn't quite bounced right in the six yard box.
