Re: Brexit, WTF?!?!?
And the neoliberal "solution" to high prices in London (or anywhere else) is to wait for a recession!

World Cup 2018
We're well into qualifying, so maybe this isn't too early. Plus Copa and Euro results bear on what happens next. Anyways, it sure seems like there is a crisis in experience coming up for the USMNT. The two midfielders that will be under 30 when WC18 starts have a total of 14 caps and one goal. The f...
Re: Euro 2016
No need to pile on the England team, but were there really 30,000 Iceland fans there? That's 10% of their damn population!

Re: Brexit, WTF?!?!?
The craziest part of that video is that she seems to have put some effort into forming those opinions! It's back to England vs France/Germany now. So long as those two want to preserve the EU, they'll have to make sure the new trade deal England gets is demonstrably worse than staying in. Otherwise,...

Re: Brexit, WTF?!?!?
I don't want to downplay the discontent over how globalization has eviscerated the middle class. That's a real thing that both parties here went in together on, and apparently in the UK as well, and no one has a real workable answer so far. Immigration in this is largely fear-mongering. I can totall...

Re: Brexit, WTF?!?!?
Also, those of you in the UK will be interested to hear that, again per the handful of minutes of FOX News I didn't manage to ignore, you've been aggressively expanding you welfare state these past few years. As if the last seven years (& Thatcher) didn't happen. I might be wrong, but I'm pretty...

Re: Brexit, WTF?!?!?
Aparrently, it's Obama's fault for having recently spoken out in favor of remaining. At least, that's what I'm told (2nd hand from Fox News). I tried to say that he's very popular there and I really doubt any dip in polling was really attributable to him, but stopped at the whole correlation is not ...
