Personally I am rejoicing at how the tycoon billionaire Barclay brothers, media baron owners of the Telegraph and the Ritz socked it to the establishment elite by throwing a lavish party at The Ritz for anti-establishment hero Farage.
Did I mention how anti-establishment they all are? I'm sure Brexit voters in Sunderland are all shouting 'hurrah, jolly good japes' in support of the people's uprising. |  |

Welcome to the new politics, where you don't need to encumber yourself with principles or integrity.
You just say whatever you need to to get elected - "My focus will be the poor/the environment/the middle classes/left-handed darts players" - then do whatever is politically expedient once you are in office, even if it's the polar opposite. Simples.

I reckon the "elite" are actually really very worried about this outpouring of resistance sentiment, hence their cosying up to plutocrats like Farage and Trump.
If politics wasn't currently so one eyed and reductive by interpreting all anti EU or anti democratic party dynasty views as "racist" there might actually be a lot of good come out of 2016.
Ollie could be the turning point! |  |

As always the right-wingers on here will claim they have control of their country back but the doings of those with the wealth and political clout will say otherwise! Trump has already intimated that the wealthy will get big tax breaks and on this side of the Atlantic Farage is lobbying for Trump not for the left behind! |  | | |

Let's face it, left wing, right wing or centre forward, polies do it for themselves, for the power and the cash. They don't give a shit about us the little people, our job is to obey and to continue to provide the "elite" their luxurious lives.

If I were a former steelworker in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin or Michigan I'm sure I'd be delighted if multi billionaire Trump was fighting my corner. I'm not sure I'd be that gullible. |  |

I hate how all the talk is now of “Career politicians” as though wanting to go into public service was some sort of terrible thing. I think it’s probably useful to have people from different backgrounds in parliament, whether it’s former miners like Dennis Skinner, business people or lawyers, but I don’t have any problem at all with someone spending their entire life working for a political party and then serving as an MP. I would imagine that whatever the party, the majority get involved in politics because they passionately believe in trying to make their constituency/country a better place, and I find it depressing that they’re now widely disparaged for a lifetime’s interest in wanting to serve the public.
When you hear Farage talking in that way, it’s hilarious, given his SEVEN failed attempts to get elected as an MP and his gravyboat-tastic spell as an MEP.
So, on the list of things we have to angrily dismiss following Brexit/Trump: Experts, Academics, the Mainstream media, Career politicians/Public servants, Judges who follow the law, facts…anything else? What progress we’re making! |  |

Trump* is planning to remove NASA's climate research budget - at a time when temperatures in the Arctic are 20 degrees C higher than normal (!) and scientists are warning of tipping points - and spend it on exploring the universe.
It beggars belief.

Trump did an interview with editorial board of the New York Times this past week . He was asked about his aversion to wind energy which seems to be based on them spoiling views off one of his courses and here was the answer......i think his hot air is a danger to the atmosphere.
TRUMP: Oh, I see. I might have brought it up. But not having to do with me, just I mean, the wind is a very deceiving thing. First of all, we don’t make the windmills in the United States. They’re made in Germany and Japan. They’re made out of massive amounts of steel, which goes into the atmosphere, whether it’s in our country or not, it goes into the atmosphere. The windmills kill birds and the windmills need massive subsidies. In other words, we’re subsidizing wind mills all over this country. I mean, for the most part they don’t work. I don’t think they work at all without subsidy, and that bothers me, and they kill all the birds. You go to a windmill, you know in California they have the, what is it? The golden eagle? And they’re like, if you shoot a golden eagle, they go to jail for five years and yet they kill them by, they actually have to get permits that they’re only allowed to kill 30 or something in one year. The windmills are devastating to the bird population, O.K. With that being said, there’s a place for them. But they do need subsidy. So, if I talk negatively. I’ve been saying the same thing for years about you know, the wind industry. I wouldn’t want to subsidize it. Some environmentalists agree with me very much because of all of the things I just said, including the birds, and some don’t. But it’s hard to explain. I don’t care about anything having to do with anything having to do with anything other than the country. | | | |

On the news this morning some US politician was saying how Trump needs to see through some of Obama's policies and that he needs to be a bit more wary of Russia.
He said that Russia has very keen nationalistic issues and questionable foreign policies (it does).
Not at all like the US then who have tramped all over the globe since WWII?? |  | | |
