Nah, the 2 acre family farms have merged into larger but still single family farms. They're all on the verge of suicide because they can't pay the leases on their equipment and can't afford the seeds for next year.

She can't really refuse can she? I mean she can but, can she really? I also read that even if the Tories fail a confidence vote, they won't resign, but call an election AFTER hard brexit. Lmao somehow this is stupider than trump, though the kids in cages in the border is 1000% more terrifying

Would the american equivalent be as bad as it seems? I don't know much about the parliamentary process and how it'd compare to our system

Suspending parliament is normally only done during elections. That’s why we have such short campaigns - the government essentially stops during them.

Hot Karl Marx posted:I think Canada has 5 weeks for elections? You yanks take 4 loving years basically For presidential campaigns, yeah. Campaigns for the House, which would be our version of the House of Commons in the UK, are typically 8-10 months. Most of that is driven by the primaries, which occur in the spring and early summer.

Presidential campaigns are never ending again. We're balls deep in a cycle of pointing fingers and calling names before we even get to the primaries. But local poo poo is much more tightly run. Still thinking about changing my name to Fah Q and running for congress in Wyoming. Only when I'm really, really high though.

There’s a lot of shade thrown in that. Not like trump will read it or sit long enough to listen to it.

Who cares. I dunno, I soured on Mattis about the time he started standing up concentration camps on military bases. Beyond that though, who gives a poo poo about people penning critical opinion pieces long after they've been removed from positions where they actually have power to effect change, and often times chose not to do so. loving Holder and Obama started doing that poo poo as soon as they were out of office, and I have zero tolerance for it anymore. Actions count, not words.

Has there been any other Trump administration official who achieved the kind of bipartisan support that Mattis did? I'm struggling to think of one.

Milo and POTUS posted:I assume american conservatives are going to applaud BJ for "getting things done" or whatever, right? They would be dumb to, because there's no bilateral trade deal in place with the UK, and if they crash out of the EU then they revert to standard WTO trade rules. So even from a MAGAnomics perspective, it's not a good thing for the US, especially when it's compounded by a weak GBP, which would further discourage the UK from buying American goods. That's to speak nothing of the political and economic instability that would plague the US' biggest military and geopolitical ally. But the MAGA wing of the Republican party doesn't really care about that.
