This is in public though, inexplicable as it is. Maybe the next set of polling results will shock them into action? [\straw clutch]. Nobody, no matter how partisan, who saw that debate can believe this man is mentally fit for office.

It's a fair point. 15 million quid from Hester wasn't it, 5 of which they accepted after these comments.

You're a straight edge metal head? I can't imagine wanting to listen to that music pissed, let alone sobre.

Something to cheer us up at the start of Glastonbury weekend.

No.

Doesn't matter how many recaps of the Witcher I watch, I don't have a clue what is happening. I'm as scoobied as Gemmill watching Game of Thrones. Latest series gets such bad reviews I've given up entirely.

Sopel just said get a black dude in as VP and problem sorted. I mean ffs, Obama wasn't that long ago.

The accents were canny though.

We love the Boys on here, you're in good company. I'm finding the time between series in general a real problem when I start a new one cos I just cannot remember what happened 12, 18, or 24 months ago on a TV program. Watching the boys again is definitely no hardship though.

The frustrating thing is, almost any candidate, save the VP, would wipe the floor with Trump if the democrats got their act together. It wouldn't even be close.

Just finished listening to an emergency podcast from News Agents USA. Jon Sopel reckons Biden will be replaced now. Emily Maitlis not so sure. I hope Jon is right, he is probably the most experienced in US politics so fingers crossed.

Not sure about Trump, he's in fairly obvious decline too. Ironically it would not surprise me if he took some performance enhancing drugs for this. Ultimately this situation comes down to the cowardice of both parties and a democratic system not fit for purpose in the 21st century.

Agreed, same for Trump though. November is still 4 months away, he might experience even more cognitive decline over that period. I don't think he has Alzheimers or anythingother than just old age, but fuck me, this is one of the most demanding jobs in the World, and the most important. And THIS is the best the US can offer? Country is completely fucked.

Give he's into public displays of auto-asphyxiation, he probably is.

I hadn't seen any of this. Christ, this is bad.

They should take Trump up on giving Biden a senility test. If he fails it, get rid. The irony for Trump getting slaughtered by a much younger predecessor would be delicious.

Well aye, but there's no mechanism for it. Someone high up in the democrats needs to be brave and speak out. Okay, there's a risk it may provoke a civil war but that's a chance worth taking at this stage. If they could depose Biden and get a younger candidate - almost any candidate (although I know Harrison is not popular) - I think Trump would be history. Not gonna happen though by the looks of it.

They can only really replace him with his consent and he's a stubborn cunt. This is a decent read: https://www.ft.com/content/b28034a1-69dd-4b04-ae55-89907845d550 Fronm the article: Bill Clinton once said Americans prefer “strong and wrong” to “weak and right”. He wasn't wrong.

I don't know who to hate more. Well I do, that's obviously Trump, but Biden is not much better facilitating him for what can only reasons of vanity at this stage. Both presidents narcissistic pricks. Both parties were in a position to fix it. And now literally the fate of the US and the World is in the balance.

Why aye. The wonders of the Universe are so boring compared with your hobby.

I've been watching numerous YouTube videos on Cosmology recently. The James Webb telescope makes the Hubble look like a pair of binoculars. There are a 100 billion stars in the Milky-way. There are 2, 000 billion galaxies in the visible universe. Nobody knows how far the Universe extends outside the visible universe (93 billion light years). The universe might be infinite, or there may an infinity of universes in a multiverse. Things are no less mind blowing when you go the other direction and look at the incredibly small or consider deep time. It's absolutely mind blowing. And people are still killing themselves over a tribal myth from the Middle East. We really are a stupid species.

There's a thing on C4 (again) about deep fakes on now. Honestly, this is really scary. Someone releases one just before the GE then fuck knows. Democracy is broken.

Just watching C4 news now. I can't see Reform getting a seat after that. You'd have to be a completely twisted racist fuck to vote for them. Surely not even Clacton are this bad.

Another resouce, a meta-site which has collated the data from all the polls and given a seat by seat breakdown on what they all predict: https://inglesp.github.io/apogee/?2019=con
