US Politics

Last day of early voting over here today! Traffic congestion outside every polling station caused by individuals waving rainbow colored Harris-Waltz flags and dressed as unicorns!!

call me old fashioned as I process the sped of change over the past decade but I loved my childhood of jumpers for goalposts, the big match and captain pugwaah before that got cancelled!!

65m votes cast so far, by 50m people 😀
 
This election is re-arranging the deck chairs on the USA Titanic, the UK and others have their tables in the restaurant.

The world is tired of the perpetual USA war machine and economic sanctions, why they ask BRICS etc. have they put up with it for so long?

Western civilisation? Pass the sick bag.

Yep, some of us would like to think that western civilisation isn't the cold war, blackrock & co and the military industrial complex.

Does this rambling word salad have a point? At least the world has a strong voice in you speaking for it.

What exactly should the BRICS do so as not to have to " put up with it "?
 
Lesley 'foghorn' Jones cannot believe what europeans think of americans?


Very funny and smart on the Daily Show.

Is it because Trump Biden etc. have spent their lives subject to american food?

Only go to America if you don't mind being poisoned and can out-run bullets.

Funny but ignorant and stupid. This was my industry for most of my working life, where I became the National President of a trade association. So I have some knowledge.

Reminds me of the way “E for Additives” was used all those years ago to denigrate the food industry and destroy people’s trust in food.

Additives aren’t the problem. They are regulated after very thorough testing. They perform essential functions in enabling the world to preserve food and minimise waste. Whilst eating freshly harvested food needs none that’s not how we survive today.

The problem is over consumption. Particularly of sugars, fats and the silent killer, salt.

Which, for years, until taken to task, the food manufacturers added to our food without a word; just snuck it in to make our food 'tasty' without a care for the consequences. Anything for a profit, eh? keep those kids pestering their parents and the profits will keep rolling in.

It's only when they were taken to task by people highlighting and protesting that they changed. Now it's as if they are the food saints, telling us how healthy they are. If no one had protested, they would have carried on for years: tooth decay, heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes.

Sorry to go off topic but I couldn't resist letting fly at someone who is a self-confessed ex member of the food processing industry.

I imagine it must be refreshing to be taken to task and it having nothing to do with politics, how left wing you are or simple ganging up and bullying.

We have no desire to spend time watching Kemi Badenoch look-a-likes videos.
