Granny Danger Posted March 4, 2018 Author Share Posted March 4, 2018 Politics is a strange business. Normally I would have wanted the SDP in Germany to reject coalition with Merkel but given Brexit, Trump and the rise of the far right in places like Germany, Italy and Poland I am delighted with the stability this decision will hopefully bring. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the polls do seem to have them slipping and I think if there was a General Election, the SNP would win back not all but many of the teuchter seats they lost. Although you are never sure with Scotland though, we are an odd bunch. Edited March 4, 2018 by Kejan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely.There is also the reality that most of the Christian Democrats are not complete arseholes like the Tories. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurkst Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 I see Five Star have gone down the Dana / Donnie Munro route into politics and won the Italian election. Fair play to them... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kejan Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Like everyone in the world, I've read about 10 minutes of detail plus had Euronews on so I am an Italian politico expert by now. I don't think they will go in to government with either party (or so they said) but then again maybe they will back the left parties? A few questions and much obliged to anyone know who knows more but * Surely Berlusconi as a convicted felon, could never be never mind Prime Minister, but a Minister? * The League/Northern League - I thought they were a pro-indy (north) party ''South from Rome is Africa'' or have they changed? Promised a referendum if the 'right-wing coalition' wins? * Will the 5 Star Movement go in to government with other parties/coalition? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crùbag Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Labour in Scotland is an absolute midden of a party. Both factions are equally decrepit. http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/16063587.Scottish_Labour_at_war__Dugdale_faction_turn_on_Leonard_over_Brexit/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted March 5, 2018 Author Share Posted March 5, 2018 Banks and multinational businesses ripping folk off for years and being aided and abetted my mainstream political parties plus political corruption has led us to a place that is not very nice. Europe could be a very bad place to live in the next decade. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chlamydia Kid Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 It’s quite perplexing how all these thick, uneducated bigots have all suddenly just started taking part in elections across the UK, Europe and the US. Whilst simultaneously all the decent progressive have decided to withdraw from the electoral process and not use their votes.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmothecat2 Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 I guess people just want someone to blame. The far-right blame immigrants and people of colour, the far left blame business or capitalism (or Jewish people), whilst the centre ground don't really have big tangible things they can point at to blame. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liberals’ wildest fantasies is like mild tax reform, hiring more women guards or teaching the West Wing in Modern Studies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
