Agreed but if it was a straight run between Macron (arsehole) and Johnson (indescribable level of arsehole), I'd take Macron. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love it how this is the angle that you're going for, you should be aiming such thoughts at the poster I'm responding to if that's your concern. I think the above post succinctly gets what I was going for where as you seem lost to the point. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You put up a photo of a masked demonstrated against a background of violent protest and then said: "Just an example of what some French people think about their equality." There are literally thousands of examples of this sort of thing within UK archives but they've got absolutely f**k all to do with our broader democratic government in the same way as your photo has got absolutely f**k all to do with "equality". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In response to a post lauding Macron in comparison to Bojo in areas like equality. The gilet jaunes protest over the past 2 years were certainly larger than any similar types in the UK. A picture of people violently protesting financial inequality in response to someone praising a country over their perceived equality is certainly relevant. So I have no idea why you chose to talk pish to me. Again perhaps your ire should've been aimed at the post I responded to, do you not think that post was a lot of pish? The little get along gang act is so cringey. Edited February 23, 2021 by Stormzy -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What with the EU’s really successful vaccination roll out, and Macron being spot on about the Oxford vaccine being knickers, it’s really exposed us as being out on a limb. Keep a light on for us please. People get carried away with the 'UK vaccine success' stuff without any seeming thought as to what the final result will be. We're not even a fifth of the way through the vaccination program, and there's every chance many EU countries will end up doing just as well, if not better. Denmark (a small northern European country with a population of a bit over 5 million) is quite sure it is going to be done with second doses by the end of June. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People also get carried away with the potential effects that leaving the EU is going to have on the UK. Especially the BBC and the SNP. We’ve made a lot of mistakes throughout out this, but securing copious amounts of vaccines isn’t one of them. People can dress it up any way they like, but the EU have made a pig’s ear of it, then off the back of this, decided to flex their “bully boy” muscles and show their true colours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's true, too, at least in terms of the economics of it. There are few issues in recent times that have produced such an outpouring of bollocks from both sides. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great, that will help exports. Got to love the complete idiocy of thinking that having a strong currency means "good". Although it should offset some of the increase in euro denominated imports and make US imports cheaper. Which will mean that our beef from normal sized cows will stand no chance in the market against their juiced up freaks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, good charts. As I recall,the Brexit vote was won in June 2016 against all the odds and the experts predicted that it would tank. The graphs show thatNOT to be the case. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the headline has absolutely nothing to do with currency anyway! It's about the relaxation of virus restrictions in England, so it's not even remotely applicable to us.
