Boris Wins In A Landslide. So What's The Future For The UK And Brexit? | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
I deleted a long diatribe about Boris as I can boil it down to this.
We’re screwed.
@super brutus Yes, indeed it is predictable that people say that Putin wins again. Do you know why? Because geopolitics is predictable. It kind of does not change very quickly. Add to that the many years that Putin has been in power, and you start understanding why saying that is quite evident and continuously relevant.
@Bigman Dogs Plenty of reports have been leaked that have not been leaked by the Russians. We blame the Russians when the methods of leaking (e.g. through internet and not directly person to person to a local journalist by a known person) hint towards Russian methods of operating. They do not do this only in the UK and US, just so that you understand…
@Bigman Dogs You think Putin DOESN’T want to “make Russia great again”? You think he DOESN’T want to throw the Russian public a bone by showing them that all their sacrifices (sanctions etc.) have “paid off” by reducing America’s position in the world. What does Kim tell HIS people when their crops fail and they’re starving ? They can’t buy supplies as a result of the sanctions they’ve been subjected to – because of THEIR leader’s desire to be “recognised” as a Superpower
@Mary Matthews First people said Boris is getting sabotaged by the Russians (leaking documents that makes the tories look bad). And now people are claiming that the Russians want Boris to win. There is no logic. People just use Russia as a boogey man to explain away all the issues
@Sam Hartford The thing is the leak doesnt fot the narrative of Russia trying to make Boris win to ruin the uk. They cant sabotage and help the conservatives at the same time
Omg it’s Lord Buckethead
He jumped ship 🙁
Elmo was his rival in his own seat. It wasn’t any kind of “touch”
They can no longer say anything to us about Trump being elected!
@earlsfield exile but calling people BUMPKINS didn’t sway their vote…either way. So how is he right? Smh. Get your panties in a twist over me saying the country folk have a different perspective than city folk….well, DUH!
@Beachdudeca No. People who would NEVER have voted Tory (Republican) DID, because Labour (Democrats) wouldn’t commit to honouring the result of the Brexit referendum. We used to get “everything” free, but that has been tempered by ongoing Tory tax cuts for the wealthy which reduced revenue. Also we’re not the only ones with a Welfare system that gives free/subsidised healthcare, education, etc. Our system worked well before the Tories ; we paid higher taxes, but knew that we were paying an “insurance” against unemployment, sickness, bereavement etc. We didn’t begrudge these benefits to others because we kept in mind that “There, but for the Grace of God, go I” Sadly, social responsibility does not come naturally to some, but they are grateful for that sense of “duty” when THEY are in need.
You will see President Trump win a second term in 2020. The Democratic communists failed. You cannot steal away the will of 64 million US citizens without a war. Let that Schiff sink in. We just recalibrated Governor Back face Northam in VA on gun rights. 86 Counties of 95 in VA so far voted in resolutions stating the sheriffs will not enforce their unconstitutional proposed anti-gun laws if passed. Power of the people.
Omg, Boris Johnson was Born in NYC! Why would he be allowed to be PM???
Lily Jade erm, because he’s British, he has British parents.
Dual citizenship and he chose the UK since his twin in the US is already president
Colony?
Almost 40% didn’t vote, fools! 😡😡😡😡
@Leslie Day globalism is dying, and that’s a good thing!
33% didn’t vote , but yes they’re morons. The ridiculous thing is they’re often the ones who moan the most about the outcome. Don’t figure, does it.
You people want to mimic communism but get
all power for yourselves and private companies.
Its doomed to fail. Stop this pretense.
Doesn’t matter. People who are stupid enough not to vote, are stupid enough to vote for Boris. Putin won. The minute David Cameron threw an existential question to a bigoted and uninformed electorate – just so HE could PERSONALLY escape a little harassment – Putin won.
They just had 4 elections in 5 years… relax
Looks like distancing himself from Trump–even ridiculing him in public at NATO–didn’t hurt Boris with UK conservatives.
It’s sad how fox are the ones that uploaded the impeachment session from today.
What the eff are you talking about?
Lol, no.
And you should have watched it on C-Span anyway, without the strategic editing and opinion commentary.
Carolyn Talbot – go look. Fox uploaded the full hearings from today and left wing news is scared because they looked stupid.
@Crimdor I wouldn’t place too much trust in that source.
Betty Clark – you don’t trust an upload of the whole hearing?
That’s sad.
@Betty Clark better than fake news CNN.
Well, the Elmo *is* easier on the eyes than the UK trump
What was the text on Elmo’s T-shirt?
I can’t see the SNP getting their referendum.
the SNP leader is an EU puppet
Five more years of the what we’ve had for the last ten years, only this time it’ll be out of the largest trading bloc and biggest economy.
… and all it cost was losing the united in the United Kingdom and the great in Great Britain. Keep stocking up on food and drugs, the “prosperity” of independence is coming.
Brexit, here they leave!
They turned on international trade, just like here. Now you’re gonna pretend the opposition went too far left. Amazing corporate mental gymnastics and propaganda.
This is the end of the UK, Scotland will surely leave now and on a very bright side, we might have a united Ireland …
Sounds good for everyone 👍
At least he owns a dog … awaiting orders from Vladdy.
k reality , the UK election is a Bell Weather warning for the DEMS , the UK Rejected the Every Thing Free Agenda which is a Carbon Copy of what Sanders and Warren are pushing . If we get a repeat this means that the GOP and Trump are heading to Major Wins in 2020 !
The Brits want more freedom, reject the globalists!
Josef
Yes, and they‘ll start by losing their freedom of movement on the European mainland.
the ammount of people and media who feel like elections shouldn’t count because it’s not there opinion.
