    So.. tax cuts and freezing the price of gas to have companies sell at a loss is her campaign? Was a short article but that’s the callouts they had. Seems like debt and shortages are on the horizon. Maybe there’s more to it?

    First, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney took over a small soccer club and turned it into a TV show. Now, Amy Poehler has upped the ante and taken over the entire country. I am not sure how it isn't obvious that this is just an Amy Poehler character:

    Did she promise to clean up England's beaches? I have a hard time picturing British politicians debating about the need to remove all of the fecal matter from the beaches without people in the audience fainting.

    57% of the vote of Tory Party members. About 140,000 votes overall. Britain has nearly 70 million people in it. This isn't a vote - it's a love-in. Trust me, she won't get very far in a general election.

    She promised to make the rich richer. Seriously. It sounds like a joke, but it's true.

    I could write at great length here but instead I'm going to link a video. 7 minutes. PLEASE watch it. Some language is NSFW. It's ABSOLUTELY spot on.

    I love the way she took that long pause at the end, Waiting for applause, after saying “we’re going to open new pork markets”… it’s mostly silence, people are, damn, are supposed to clap for everything she says? Just seemed so happy when people applaused, though, so I can’t blame her for trying to milk it.

    Sorry, mate, but you have RINOs... Not true MAGA/Brexit conservatives running the show there.

    MAGA is for the working class Americans here, regardless of what you may have heard over there.

    It’s true. Relatives in London are predicting disaster. Leaving the EU (to avoid migrant quotas) was a huge mistake.

    Brexit freed Brits from the EU, locked them in with Boris Johnson (now Liz Truss).
