Down the pub - the thread about nothing and everything

[VNA]

There was legal challenges and all sorts of other shenanigans going on.

There was never a legal challange to the result of the referendum.  That is a lie.

I am not a Trump fan but it does seem that all those that lost the general election to Cam-moron then lost the EU referendum then lost again to May/ Borris -- are now totally rabidly ripping into Trump with all that pent up anger.

If you think our 'first past the post' system skews the result, what about America's :eek
Winning by a single vote in California gives you 10% of the Electoral College votes to decide the next President.

Like ours it's a broken system, one which doesn't reflect the population now living in these areas/states.

What decides how many collage votes a state allocates because as I understand it one state could have 2 million people and only have 5 collage votes but another state could only have 1 million people and yet have 10 collage votes.

Feel free to apologise for calling me a liar

A case brought my ex-pats that was refused as having no merit.  Is this the best you can do?

Wow.  Trump is now, I understand, the first President in history to have had a live presidential address to the nation pulled by major US TV networks.  Even Trump supporting Fox News pulled his address :eek .

Several US TV networks late on Thursday halted live coverage of US President Donald Trump’s first public appearance since election night after concluding that the president was spreading disinformation.

Only CNN carried on with the address but a chyron displayed under him said,

“Without any evidence, Trump says he’s being cheated.”

The Pentagon have put a no-fly zone in place around Joe Biden's house.

The US military now consider Joe Biden to be President Elect.

Don't think it's quite that bad, but there's a minimum representation of 3 votes. So the tiny District of Colombia gets the same as South Dakota and Vermont

In what way is Trump a racist

How amazing is that, a US Presidential address pulled by US networks becuase the President was spreading miss-information.
