At times this thread has been amusing if nothing else.
Orca Windbag was stumping for Harris on Monday.

Round here Philip Day has been buying masses of land* and just growing pheasants for his shoots and maize (corn if yer a yank) for his biogas plant.
Then Edward Haughey** was buying off loads as well, or at least was til his helicopter flew into some igneous cumulus and between them they turned a shitload of productive land into pretty much dead farms.


*after his Edinburgh Woolen Mill went pop and he sold it then bought it back via his daughter for pennies on the pound, still had a lot of money for land mind.

**The Irish PMs brother.
You get some idea of the logic (that's been given a bit of a shoeing) with the returned tax exile 'Farmer' James Dyson (77) who owns 35,000 acres - currently worth about £0.5 billion. Before the budget he could bequeath it all, tax free to his offspring. Nice work if you can get it. :thumbup: Now only the first million escapes the Treasury and the rest brings in a handy 20%.

I'm sure he'll find a loophole or two and/or exile himself at his vacuum factory in Singapore where they assemble the bits made in Malaysia - in awful conditions, by workers on $10/day* - again.

He might even lose his passionate interest in growing turnips and start to sell land.

*according to Channel 4. He tried to sue them but dropped the case.

America isn't ready for a non male president for at least 20 years, especially a laydeeee 'of color'
I think it is more the case that being "of colour" and female is not sufficient qualification by itself to be a President.

What else does Kamala have? Oh yeah, she is not Trump. Surely that's enough?

Gonna have to say no to that, thank fuck.
Hating Trump didn't make Harris more qualified. She lost because she's a blithering idiot. At least now she has a reason to avoid the media.

Looking forward to hearing Trump appoint Candace Owens as WH Press Secretary. The MSM would have another meltdown, CNN is a dumpster fire this morning :)

True enough in some ways. Most people I know want the boats stopped! But I cant think of anyone that wanted eastern euros shipped out though, we'd never get our cars washed! :D

Very much so. I would expect zero tariff and a free trade deal.

I mean I would but for our new Labour government, especially some of the key cabinet figures, Reeves and Lamy give me shudders. No idea who Douglas Alexander even is.

Trump has a dream team behind him, Musk, Vance, Kennedy, Gabbard. Labour is more of a nightmare.

Glad to see Farage so politically active again. That's also good for the UK.
