These people are evil. They need a rope and a high limb.


Russia actually tried to help Corbyn and not Johnson. They leaked documents of preliminary talks with the US and Corbyn was always supportive of Russia and the Soviet Union.

Whilst I think most people are sick and tired of bitter and twisted Hillary Clinton and her aides, and Clinton is now thankfully (like Corbyn), a spent political force.

American conservatives would be the first to call UK conservatives "socialist."

Yes, British Conservatives, are very different to American Conservatives. I guess some Americans would call them left wingers.

Breaking: The US Ninth Circuit has issued an international injunction blocking the UK General Election results. It will take immediate effect.

The Conservative party here have many of the attributes Americans would recognise as Republican party values. They believe in hard work being rewarded, and folks standing on their own two feet. They believe in low taxation, and patriotism. Loyalty to Queen and country.

But, also they believe in, and support the NHS, or socialised medicine as Americans would know it. They ensure a high minimum wage, and constantly raise it. They believe in a social safety net, ensuring benefits for the unemployed, and those too ill to work. There are many things the Conservatives believe in, that in American politics, would be rated left wing.

At the same time, many believe them the political party of the rich, and big business. But they are much more to the left, than say in the days of Winston Churchill leading them. Their latest leader Boris Johnson, is quite a compassionate soul. He is very much liked by the majority of people in this country. When they talk of him, it's always Boris this, or Boris that. He is spoken of fondly by his first name. It is the equivalent say, of George Bush being referred to in discussion by Americans as just plain George. He wasn't talked of like that was he? It shows an affection for Boris Johnson, of long standing. We like eccentrics in this country, and always have done so.

Boris has been around for a long time in this country. He was an MP for many years, and then became a popular Mayor of London, winning two elections for that office. He was always destined to one day be Prime Minister. He came to office only three months ago, to lead a Conservative party in total disarray. They were looking like a political party on the brink of extinction. They were in a total mess over Brexit. Now, he has turned that around in a short time, and has won a General election by a landslide. He will be given every chance by the people of this country now, to take the EU on, and lead us out of the EU, into an unknown future. The people are behind him in this endeavour.

Yesterday, Boris, instead of laying in bed, enjoying his great victory, travelled to the north of England, to thank the people there who had voted for him. This was in hard Labour party country. Folks who had voted Labour forever. He spoke in the very constituency that had Tony Blair as their MP back in the day.......

Using the power of business and money to influence elections and the government once in office, where the collective socialism is control by the businesses and money over the individual.


We call it Fascism here.
The USA has been a Fascist nation since 1913. England much longer.

This sounds like the type of conservative I am. A single-payer type healthcare system would actually be a conservative option for us, since our current system is not conserving anything - it is costing us, now middle-class people tremendously and it was doing so before and has been doing so since Obamacare. Also, assuring a decent standard of living for all those in the country rightfully, to our fellow citizens, vs to illegals is something we should be able to get behind.
