Boris at it again and the contest to replace the lying c***

[visage]

Isnt he, technically speaking, a US citizen....? Just thinking, like...

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Think he got rid of that a while back.

 

[Walshes Wolves]

He wasn't leading the country when he was PM

He was, but in to the abyss.

He did - sold one of his houses and had to pay double capital gains on it, so got rid. Don't think he even bothered to pretend it was any kind of patriotic gesture or anything.

The US applies taxation based on citizenship rather than residency, and the embassies in London and Zurich and Frankfurt are always busy with high flyers applying to get rid of theirs as well. Ironically of course the government there has long maintained that it's a justified system because expats are benefitting from the umbrella of American military protection in places like Europe, though I doubt the IRS will take recent events as an excuse for not filing the next return...

Looks like a good group in Leeds.
Proper critical analysis there rather than one liners from Johnson.

In every day life, nobody talks about Brexit. We had a referendum, people voted to leave the EU. We had a general election, with the Labour Party saying they would have another vote, if they won, but they lost. We then had another General election, with Labour saying there wouldn't be another referendum if they won and then they won and we just had local elections where Reform, who are against the EU were easily the biggest party. Brexit is a dead subject now and the vast majority of people don’t even talk about it.

 

[lemonjelly]

perhaps they should talk about it, and its implications, given the impact they're having?

 

[BillyDee]

It's literally the biggest issue for the UK.

The biggest talking point at the moment is immigration that's a direct consequence of Brexit, so people might not be talking specifically about it, but they definitely are Indirectly

high immigration is down to government policy The government has been facilitating high legal immigration, because bg businesses, including universities make lots of money out of immigration.

Well since Brexit political parties saying they would not rejoin the EU, single market or customs union have have received many more actual votes than parties saying that they want to rejoin the EU. If it was the biggest issue, it seems you only get in to power if you state you are opposed to rejoining the EU in the party's manifesto. Polls don't get you in to power, actual votes do.

The voting publics ignorance of that fact doesn't make it not true.

Well in communist countries, their leaders think they know better than the majority too. Luckily, we live in a democracy and it isn't the people who think they know better than everyone else that wins, but the majority.

What communist countries?

Ah, an emotional return for 'you lost, get over it'.

No, the opposite. It is an emotional return to the past and the majority are stupid and a small minority know better.

 

[Derby Wolf]

A small minority, it was 48-52 and with the benefit of hindsight there's more people who regret voting Brexit than Remain.

 

[Keef]

And I’m guessing by all your other posts on here, you’re the small minority?
I blocked you months ago, for being insufferable so any arguing against me will just be with yourself, I won’t see it
