1.21 Gigatwats and he can travel back in time in a modified Triumph Spitfire.

I believe he’s nearing a gigatwat.

She’d still wait to see if she had consensus with republicans.

whenever I think about how fucked up our government is, I can always look the UK to make me feel not-as-terrible-but-still-pretty-bad.

One of the reasons he wanted to prorogue parliament was because they already passed legislation requiring either a deal or a request for an extension. And it’s not like Europe wants a no-deal outcome. The way Labour wants to negotiate a deal is to be the ones in charge of a coalition minority government, but, again,…

She’s holding off until Trump actually shoots someone on the streets of NYC, with video evidence, and then she’ll have to take some time to decide whether to consider giving impeachment some serious thought.

Can you imagine living in a country where the shitshow of a government is actually held accountable? Where those responsible for the systematic checks and balances actually act, instead of being either in the government’s pocket OR too afraid of being uncivil? Good on you, UK.

Boris Johnson doesn’t care if his prorogation was unlawful, it was simply a means of avoiding debate and killing time before the UK goes over the no-deal Brexit cliff.

This sounds soooo familiar, mhhhhhhhmmm, i just can’t seem to remember where from, tho...

11 justices... I like the sound of that.

Her time dealing with trumps bullshit has come to a middle.

oh, it's an old classic that gets played over and over again...

The politics of fear--where have I heard that song before? 

We, in the United States, should only be so lucky.

Boris will continue to bend norms, ignore laws, etc. to bomb out of the EU. He wants disaster economics so he can use the economic emergency to sell assets, privatize, cut taxes, reduce benefits, etc. under the guise of an economic emergency.  Any reasonable deal will prevent that from fully occurring and won’t be…

I wish our government officials had the courage to dunk on Trump again and again like the British state does to this overgrown boarding school prefect with a piss-stained mop head for hair.

whenever I think about how fucked up our government is, I can always look the UK to make me feel not-as-terrible-but-still-pretty-bad.

Boris seems to exemplify the word “twat” more and more every day. That’s a lot of twattage

It must be nice to live in a country with an independent Supreme Court that doesn’t just act as a rubber stamp for the executive.
