[MrFrankWhite]

Wonder how the Greens went in the Chinese elections

The great leader represents the left, right, greens and all unions. A man for all the people.

By the people for the people… unless the people try to stop a tank.

I guess the question is which democratic country held elections when that country was at war?

More to the point, which ones held elections when they had been invaded?

 

[Brightman]

We don’t vote for a prime minister, we never have done. We have a first past the post system in about 650 constituencies across the Uk. The party with a majority gets to run the country and their leader at the time is prime minister. A prime minister doesn’t have the same executive powers as a president does.

How many free and fair elections do you think there have been in Russia?

Very disingenuous! Point still stands, Starmer is cooked just like the 4 previous PMs' you've had over the last 4 years!
Keep going, you're on a roll..

Didn't Churchill lose the election before the end of WW2..

America, several times..

Yes but it was two months after VE Day.

Do you think if the Chinese invaded North Island there would be an NZgeneral election?

Yes, the bloke was a complete cunt.

 

[Noitall]

Yes, the bloke was a complete cunt.

Lucky they didn’t continue with Neville Chamberlain though at the start

 

[Hardyman's Yugo]

Maybe so but it was what we needed at the time. Otherwise you and I might be conversing in German and you’d be supporting FC Magdeburg not Millwall

That’s not the threat it used to be

Hard to imagine they would have become a friendlier place if they won the war under that administration though

I guess not, I mean it’s 80 years since Hitler shot himself.

Lady Di’s dead as well mate, there’s been an inquiry and everything

Zelensky wants a European Army if the USA are not backing hem. If Russia & the USA are buddying up, And China join that alliance. The so called European Army might want to take a long smoko break with that idea you reckon? Lol.

I do not like Zelensky. I think he is a litrle coreupt weasel. However I get the argument about not having elections when you have been invaded. However he has done the dictater steps of babninf opposition individuals, political parties, churches and media outlets.
