Hopefully britain can learn some lessons from france: "Macron’s ascendency could encourage those in Britain who would like to see another path open up. One that would help counter the kind of narrative deployed by May; one that could soften Brexit. A left-leaning Labour offers little solace in that regard. The best antidote seems to be a confident centre, one built on pragmatic, moral, optimistic beliefs, and, as we see in France, rich in potential. If Macron prevails on 7 May, the immediate effect of his centre revolution will probably be felt in France. But its most important effect should be to galvanise like minds abroad, and certainly here." https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/apr/28/macron-rise-extremism-not-inevitable-le-pen-france

Almost all recent polls show Mr. Lapid’s Yesh Atid (There is a Future) party, established in 2012, would come out as the largest faction in the Knesset, or parliament, if an election were held today—and therefore get the opportunity to form a governing coalition. Yesh Atid would nearly triple its current number of seats, according to these polls. Uhhhh gently caress if I know BrutalistMcDonalds has issued a correction as of 01:29 on Apr 29, 2017 |

Hillary seemed to have run to the left, however much goons will violently resist that characterization. Or maybe she was just all over the place.

get that OUT of my face posted:isn't netanyahu in the midst of some corruption row or is he just gonna slide out of that as well no one believes that bullshit its something about using public money quote:Sara Netanyahu is accused of ordering new furniture for the prime minister’s official residence in Jerusalem. Later, she allegedly swapped it with old furniture from her house in Caesarea. In addition, she was accused of doubling the number of dinner guests in Netanyahu’s office in order to be able to afford private chefs. no one cares not only that but that sort of petty political prosecution is a good way to get a more nationalistic PM. because people in Israel hate the judges and this is going to be another nail in their coffin. they are all going to get gulenized if they keep this up.
