Comey violated the Hatch act and helped Trump become president.
Now he was investigating espionage linked material relating to the Trump campaign and he gets the sack.
It's Trump-gate.

Whose bright Idea was it to bring that woman to a black college graduation?

 

Talk about not knowing your audience.

To be fair all people with money would do that.

 

John Oliver is a smug d-bag though.

Of course everyone does that. It is his hypocrisy that is annoying. Sad thing is some of his followers I know are surprised and disappointed that he would do such thing.

@Fulham Broadway I was not planing on paying any attention to the next UK elections, but I had a look at the Labour manifesto, and it looks surprisingly great. Don't think I've seen a better manifesto from a major party in Europe probably since Syriza first got elected.

Its funny how the MSM are  screaming hysterically -its communism ! Socialism !! -basically it's nationalisation of a few utilities that we already owned that the tories sold off to their chums, and some Keynsian  economics, policies already adopted by other European states

I enjoyed how specific an unambiguous it was. You don't get that sort of policy-filled manifestos anywhere anymore. Now it's mostly meaningless PR bullshit on both the left and the right.

 

....not that I expect it to make any meaningful difference in the results. People have been discouraged to vote for actual policies for decades now..

True- this is probably the last manifesto with clear cut ideological policies - Corbyn being old school. Now the probabilities are that he has no chance, like Bernie Sanders, but it's funny how May is suddenly trying to appeal to the disenfranchised.  Youre right so many people tend to vote on the shallowest of whims, it's personality and style  nowadays that sways voters

Yeah, people now tend to use similar standards to vote in elections like the ones they use to vote on the x-idol or whatever that shit is called.

But that's always the criticism of any policies outside of the 'allowed' spectrum. Not that it's bad or immoral or that you can argue reasonably against it. But that it's "mad". It's politically naive because it could never actually pass. The reason it could never actually pass is exactly because of all the twats who say that it can't happen. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy. Never mind that the majority of the public actually agree with the said policy. Same happened with Sanders in the US.

So someone tried to assassinate Robert Spencer by spiking his drinks. Pathetic, if you're going to murder a man at least look at him in the eyes. Cowards, willing to sacrifice another's life for what they believe in but not their own.

Bomb at Ariana Grande concert in Manchester -means the audience was mainly 10-16 year old girls. 22 dead, 60 injured by a suicide bomb.

Sounds like he walked in at the end which is easy to do.
Lots of little girls carrying pink balloons.
Just had to listen to some poor lady on radio who's been looking for her daughter all night. Absolute shitcunts

If Iran was buying weapons from Nato allies no one would say anything about human right abuses or terror support. Presidents would call them to congratulate and invite them to their capitals to have dinner or even dance with their leaders.

I just realized how desensitized I have become towards events like this. It's become so common that hearing this news didn't evoke any noteworthy emotions in me, just another day in the world. People will colour their facebook pictures, then soon something new will happen and we will forget all about this.

An 8 year old now confirmed dead....Just truly horrific.

Don't talk bollocks mate this is off the scale barbarism no one in England and certainly Manchester will forget this. You go and colour in your Facebook and stop making idiotic comments. This was aimed at children who were on a night out I can't get my head around it.
