I am on Amy. She comes over well on TV, and can do "normal" far better than nearly all the other candidates. The Left of the party is looking a bit too crowded, Klobuchar can sweep up the moderates.

I was about to say that it's going to be the new Brexit, but of course the hair-pulling over that issue will most likely still be in full swing when the 2020 Presidential election takes place. And possibly when the 2024 contest happens, too.kle4 said:I look forward to being utterly sick of the 2020 contest by the time the primaries actually start.
So we've both things to look forward to at the same time. That'll be fun.0 -
I agree that this is what ought to happen, but I have a horrible feeling that in practice the debate is going to go so far leftwards that all candidates are going to spend the next year or so burnishing their socialist credentials, with the result that a) they pick the wrong candidate and b) whoever they pick then can't tack anything like far enough back to the centre to win the middle from Trump.Foxy said:I am on Amy.

I sense a desire to win in the Democrats, and while socialism is polling well there, Amy will be the sensible choice who can win. Very clean backstory to compared with most of the rivals.Endillion said:

Seat T doesn't care. How sadSeanT said:I'm not sure I give a tiny floating scintilla of a fuckette, but I appreciate the need for the site to vary from Brexit, every so often.
However, I do feel that Brexit overwhelms everything, right now, and that is how it should be. A neuralgic and internal British political argument, debated for 50 years, is reaching its grand finale. What;s more, whatever happens to Brexit has massive, important lessons for half a billion Euiropeans who might one day consider national independence, AND it has further lessons for other nations, across the globe, who might fancy their sovereign chances, head to head with elitist globalisation.
For once, a parochial focus on our own political debate is justified. Right now we ARE the centre of world attention. Will Brexit be a total catastrophe, will a great and ancient democracy continue to soil itself in public, or will, somehow, this country pull itself together and achieve a decent result and a new self respect? Or will the Queen be evacuated to the moon?
Compared to that, even the strangeness of America's new politics seems small beer, just right now.0 -

I keep getting odd hunches that Trumpton doesn’t contest Potus 2020.
I say this as a once fully paid up member of the “we’ve got this fucking moron for eight years” brigade.
But, I think there could be a stalking horse from the the GOP (Romney?) and, if that happens, I think Trumpton might be flushed out by a better candidate.
Just a bizarre hunch I have developed recently.0 -

Is it too late to bet on La May leaving office as PM before 31 March? Probably, but there again she still faces enormous problems prior to Brexit day on 29/3/19. It would probably take an out and out Cabinet rebellion to persuade her to simply walk away, handing over the reins to a temporary appointee.

"Social media executives could be arrested and held personally liable if content that is harmful to children or vulnerable people is not taken down from their sites, a minister has suggested.
Jackie Doyle-Price, the minister for mental health and suicide prevention, called for YouTube and Facebook, which owns Instagram, to be treated like publishers and take responsibility for material on their platforms. The government said yesterday that it would empower a regulator to control the sector and give legal force to codes of practice for social media companies."

@Richard_Tyndall
Please go back and read the quote again.
It says Harold won the Battle of Hastings.
Now I appreciate somebody whose knowledge of education and history comes from the work of liar, forger and pseudoscholar Dominic Cummings is going to be overloaded with myths.
But I think you will find if you check carefully that actually William won. That's why the entire fecking module is called 'The Norman Conquest of England 1066-1100.'
This is one of a huge number of errors I have been coming across, although it's the daftest. For example, claims about the importance of universities in Norman England (there weren't any, Oxford being a school at the time) or that the Duke of Suffolk wasn't murdered in 1450 (astonishingly, an error that wasn't overturned on both appeal and complaint). And these are at least partly due to the rushed way your hero brought in these reforms and the incompetence he and his acolytes showed in administering them.
As for your personal abuse about my qualifications, when you tell me you have written five history books, eight scholarly articles and worked in a university history department as a lecturer for four years I'll accept that from you, and not one second before.0 -

But wine drinking wouldn’t be nearly so much fun if there wasn’t the small risk of a double green...SeanT said:A more pressing question for PB-ers. I just opened a should-be-decent £25 bottle of Chateauneuf-du-Pape I bought from M&S a few months ago.
It is horribly corked and utterly undrinkable. But what do I do? Who keeps a receipt for wine they bought half a year back?

The only way to have no customs border in NI, or at Dover for that matter, is to be in a Customs Union with close permanent alignment of agricultural and related standards.

Hartlepudlians much less so, I expect.SouthamObserver said:This thread on the backstop should be essential reading.

Edit - I'm not making any comment either way on Harold's ability, just making the point that this sentence without qualification is simply wrong. What I think they meant to say was 'Harold's army maintained cohesion most off the day, beating off numerous attacks by the Normans, before breaking in the afternoon.' But that's not what it says.0
