@Th3solution Boris and Trump were both installed by Steve Bannon. They’re intrinsically linked. Plus, Biden’s proud of his Irish heritage which scuppers a post-Brexit trade deal if the UK screw over Ireland in the process. Biden and Harris truly detest Boris, the word ‘disgust’ was used in relation to racist remarks he made about Obama. The general public are chuffed that Trump lost over here, the leaders definitely aren’t. Although I did laugh at the American media reporting that there were fireworks over here celebrating Biden winning... despite it being Bonfire Night over here.
@Th3solution Most people here seem to loathe Trump. He's extremely unpopular. What is interesting is how many of the conditions that led to Trump's election are also present here.
Biden's election creates a headache for the government because they were pinning their hopes on a US trade deal (complete with disgusting US food standards and NHS access). Now they will have to cooperate more with the EU or risk wrecking the economy further than it already has been by Covid. As for Ireland, the government recently presented a Bill that would break international law and also undermine the Good Friday Agreement. The US is a co-guarantor of the agreement, so it is not simply about Biden's heritage. From other countries' perspectives I can see why they would view the UK as untrustworthy. Johnson is also a racist who has written some truly disgusting things that I won't repeat. I've never understood why successive British governments have been so eager to lick the arsehole of whoever is US president. It's quite sad, isn't it? The empire and WW2 was finished long ago and Britain no longer matters, so perhaps clinging to America's coattails makes them feel important? The US simply enjoyed Britain's access to the EU. Now that's gone they have no use for the UK or Boris. How sad for him.
Does anyone else find it weird that on here I get Xbox adverts but when I pop on over to Pure Xbox I get PlayStation adverts? I think the Google advertising algorithm has got confused somehow! 😆
Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
@Jrose1985 I wouldn't say racist, but it's pretty ***** ignorant of you to say all of this was a planned hoax and that Biden was in some form of coup de etat to manufacture a viral disease
This isn't ***** Devil's Breath lmao this man ain't Mr. Negative
@JohnnyShoulder I think it’s easy to just write what happened earlier off as trolling but honestly, they weren’t. They legitimately believed what they were saying, which is the worrying part.
@nessisonett
To be fair, the two instances aren't mutually exclusive. I agree they appeared to believe what they were saying but at the same time were very much endeavouring to cause upset and a flame war, etc.
