    Excellent Clip. You gotta love it when by accident, the media types slip up, and real people get a moment to broadcast the actual truth.

    How was that a slip-up, exactly? Why do you think 'the media types' interview real people, if not to hear their actual point of view?

    That journalist would have been thrilled with that interview. It was pithy, it was passionate, it had a great soundbite along the way (Great/little Britain), and it was completely authentic.

    They may not have expected it, but spontaneous reactions like that are what tv reporters crave. And it was broadcast, wasn't it? How was it a 'mess up'?

    Don't you know anything about the media? I do.

    What do you think about the reporters quip at the end (just before cut in some versions, cut out on others) of "Obviously a labour [supporter]"?

    I found that odd. Almost pejorative.

    If you actually believe that, looks like I know a LOT more about the media.

    Glad to see at least some posters here are a little more perceptive.

    Any chance someone has a link to that cosy interview in the pub between Kuennsburg and Johnson? Going mad trying to find the full version

    Im no fan of Jonson but this American moaning about him ghosting her is a non-story. It might become something with all the furore around upper class brits and women

    Has anyone seen cryptocurrency?

    I invested a load of money based on his advice and I have questions about the outcomes.


    They were not what he repeatedly and aggressively repeated and predicted.
    I want my money back.
    Thanks in advance

    Dominic Cummings resigned as spad three weeks ago. Weird that didn’t make the news

    It's like when that witch gets doused with water, the inevitable shreeks of a miscreant empire with noone left to listen. And in the end just pity like a scene from a tortured soul in Dante's inferno.

    The separation of Northern Ireland from the UK is underway...

    UK ports 'preparing to host EU customs checks'

    The shipping industry is drawing up plans for EU border checks in Britain for trade bound for Northern Ireland.

    They didn't matter when they were in government, they certainly won't matter now. I'd say Boris would rather tell the truth than bring that bunch in again.

    If the UK dumped the north could it not impose full checks on all goods between irealdn and the UK

    This Brexit craic is going to be expensive. Between a tanking economy and paying for the upkeep to northern Ireland for at least the next decade while it transitions theres some tough times ahead.

    Theoretically it could but it wouldn't play well in Brussels so they'd get absolutely hammered there and then its really curtains.

    What tanking economy?

    All those who predicted the economic explosion of the UK over this are going to look like proper imbeciles over the coming decade and I will be first to remind them. Anyone who says this will have no right to offer an opinion on anything as thye will just be seen as outright stupid.

    Save that.

    I have started pulling people up on it already with a timely interuption of "sorry, you are too thick to engage with "

    You make out the EU has power. It's a tin pot club of **** weak nations who if the UK took the shackles off could plough them into submission.

    If I understand you correctly you are saying that anyone who gets a prediction wrong is an imbecile and will have no right to voice any opinions ever again?
    Can that be taken retroactively?
