Time for the entire US politican system to resign

[brian ross]

Personally, I am getting fed up with the childish tit-for-tat back and forth between the Republicans, the Democrats, el Presidente Trump and everybody else. I think it's time they all packed up and went home and handed the reins of power back to the UK. Queen Elizabeth and even BoJo could do a better job than they seem capable of. Time for the world to have a rest from the bullshit that the US media bombards us with nightly. Time we all had a Christmas present and the whole shebang was handed over to Westminster until the yanks start acting like adults and took responsibility for their own actions. Tsk, tsk.

As bad as it is in the entrenched federal bureaucracy -- which explains why American voters put a disruptor like Trump in the White House -- I hardly see how it would improve anything to put ourselves under the control of the Brits, who can't even pull off a proper divorce from the EU without shedding Prime Ministers like ballast from a hot-air balloon.

Plus, we'd be selling out our sovereignty to a gaggle of unelected Eurocrats in Brussels, whose most fervent desire is to transform the continent into a Third World spillway packed with hordes of Middle East Muslims, Africans and others so unfamiliar with modern Western society that they need instructions to figure out how to use a flush toilet.

But look, if you're tired of listening to the U.S. media, my suggestion is that you do what most Americans do -- ignore it.

The beauty of this CF is that they can't pass spending Bill's and encroach on our freedoms. Winning!

You may like to believe that about Trump but I am fairly sure he has simply replaced the old swamp with a new swamp, 4E.

However, the point I am making is that the US political system is pretty well fucked, well and truly. Doesn't matter who is in charge or who is on the bottom, the whole thing has been corrupted. Americans have demonstrated that they cannot be trusted with Government. They have become too partisan.

I am not claiming that the UK (note, not the EU) system is perfect. Far from it. However the British appear to be able to act much more responsibly and can accept responsibility for their actions. If you ignore BREXIT for the moment, the Westminster system seems to be run by adults.

I am unsure why you are mixing the Westminster system with the EU system. They are two completely separate political systems - which for the moment are connected but as we all know, that is about to end. Like a typical Ignorant American, I expect you believe that the Queen rules the UK and controls the Government?

Ignoring Brexit won't make it go away and has EVERYTHING to do with how pathetic the UK system is. Your leftard heroes, Jeremy Corbyn's Labour, certainly aren't acting like adults nor are they acting for the people who pay them but, then again, this is what you 'progressives' are all about.

It is difficult to imagine a more disastrous outcome for Britain than a Jeremy Corbyn-led Labour government. He is the worst leader of a major British political party in living memory. Not only are his economic policies utterly reckless, he has turned a blind eye to anti-Semitism in his own party, and his past sympathy for terrorist organisations is a risk for Britain’s allies.

If the unthinkable happens, a Labour victory, Australia should immediately suspend intelligence sharing and defence co-operation with Britain. Along with the US, Canada and New Zealand, we are all part of the so-called Five Eyes intelligence-sharing network. This has been discussed at the highest levels of the Australian government.

For decades, Corbyn has been a friend to terrorist organisations, corrupt regimes and tin-pot dictatorships. He doesn’t discriminate whether it is the IRA, Hamas, Hezbollah or Nicolas Maduro in Venezuela.

In good old Australia, the ENTIRE GRUBBERMENT should be gaoled, because every single one of them are on the take, corrupt or simply criminals.

One huge gaol for the hundreds of thousands of them.

Perhaps a guillotine or several to dispense the justice long time in coming.

They appear to be governing despite BREXIT, Black Orchid, something even you cannot deny.

Who has ever said I hold Corbyn as a "hero", Black Orchid? It would be like suggesting you believe BoJo is a "hero". Not even I'd sink that low. Your sniping is just that, sniping and pointless. I hold both political leaders in the UK responsible for what has occurred there. The Tories for creating a massive division within their own party and Corbyn for failing to take advantage of that.

As far as I am concerned, the correct approach has finally been adopted - an election to sort out Parliament (although I don't think it actually will). BREXIT is a mistake - a cockup of monumental proportions. The Tories got themselves into this, time for the Tories to actually work to get the UK out of it (and I don't mean the EU). What they need is a plan and to stick to it. At the moment, BoJo has shown he is just as aimless as May was.

However, all that is nothing to do with the US political system. Here is a simple question. Leaving everything aside, do you think that the US political system is so damaged that there is really only one sensible solution - its dissolution and creation of a new system?

[Black Orchid]

You are the king of bias and sniping, Brian. The US system would be easily fixed with dissolution of the progressive DNC.

In fact the whole western world would be fixed with the dissolution of the diseased progressive mind set.

Yes, lets all put on your favourite black uniforms and do the straight armed solute, Jawohl, Mein fuhrer!

Why not answer the question? The US's problems all started with the Right's attacks on Clinton and then Obama. Such silliness, such immaturity.

Grow up, Black Orchid. The politics consists of more than just one side.

If that's what you believe you are truly more insane than even I gave you credit for.
