Oh, do they? Fucking show them, then. All of them.

Feel free to post this in Kamala Harris' thread and stir the pot Nigel Führage, the skid stain on the pants of modern day politics, weighed in on Harris' candidacy for POTUS, saying that he "cannot see the Democrats getting rid of a black African woman". Kamala Harris was born in California, to a Tamil Indian mother and Jamaican father. Over to Queen Kath:

Is that why they let Donald Von Shitzenpants get a bit of glass in his ear the other day? They were too busy reading through the Political Discussions thread thinking "fuck sake, that Crem talks a load of hysterical shite doesn't he?" to notice a cunt with a gun.

Since becoming PM, Keir Starmer's net approval rating has gone from -1% to +19%, and feelings of optimism has surged from 31% of the public to 45%. It might be about to get even better, too; one of the major points of criticism from a lot of people was the failure of him and Chancellor Rachel Reeves to commit to scrapping the two-child benefit cap, but Starmer and Ed. Sec. Bridget Phillipson are now saying the measure is being considered in their child poverty review. I say again, apart from Wes Sterfing, it's been a great start to this new era.

Nah, he's a picture of health. But he does have a dangerous stalker who goes by the name of a stone fruit.

The mood swing from seeing the HMRC envelope and thinking "Christ, what now?" to then opening it and finding "You have paid too much tax. HMRC owes you..."

That's why I stopped him playing the 10s No.1s game.

Great call imo, might be worth considering.

Well, stop press, Ulitzer has said something completely agreeable. The PM’s thread was made because a bike rode into his car. Truss and Sunak’s threads were made because they were given a position of power. Now Kamala Harris has a thread and she’s not even the fucking president yet. And all four of these people are healthy (well, maybe not mentally with Truss). The discussion in these threads can be fun or interesting but this section is technically for DL/deadpooling consideration, not general discussion. The extra-curricular section is grand, people. It’s a nicer place than this, in fact.

Kamala Harris was the Attorney General of California, has been a Senator for 8 years and appears to be replacing an old fossil who scared everyone. Sir Keir Starmer was the Director of Public Prosecutions, has been an MP for 10 years and replaced an old fossil who scared everyone. Just some interesting parallels there.

What a relief!

Max Vertaliban up to his normal tricks again in Hungary today. Glad it only screwed him this time.

This parody piece in Private Eye could quite easily not have been.

I would understand completely if you didn't want to face a second of such an awful TV program but Laura Kuenssberg has just been buried somewhere just below the Earth's mantle by Rachel Reeves.

Tory MP Roger Gale, 80, is standing to be Deputy Speaker in the HoC.

"There is literally total asymmetry of how the people here see the rule of law" - another piece of evidence that Emily Maitlis is the best in the business.

Oh dear.

Maybe I'm just reaching the age where I'm losing touch with the language of the yoof, but all this 'skibidi' stuff is a load of shite.

Ray Reardon, you say? ...no, nobody picked him. For Jesus sake.
