Would it be less weird to you if it was a Republican? And this isn't weird, considering the Senate Republicans pretty much told him "you can do...

Germany doesn't charge that much. We demand about ~756 pounds for a family of five over five years. With your new scheme, it's 400 pounds per year. ...

I'm confused about who you are and what you're defending. Are you the Dread who wouldn't have used the term "illegal aliens" in a policy debate about...

Of course you don't. Denial only works in the short term. :rolleyes:

We are so screwed. :( All the arguments so far have been what people might vote against (a SSSocialist, a billionaire, a gay man, a woman...) and...

That's fine, it includes having a comprehensive health system being paid for. Unless you include healthcare costs in your comparison you're comparing...

You were talking about the "Immigration System" as a whole. Not singularly about visa. As such, any and all fees you are required to pay in order to...

Will this go through in time for the 2020 election?

I don't know that it's an important ruling. They tried to impose a poll tax. You can't impose a poll tax on voting anymore. A Constitutional...

You're including fees to pay a contribution towards the NHS etc as visa fees? Oookay . . .

Yeah, a family of five paying 21,299 pounds for the proceedings sounds like a bargain. Even a single applicant needs deep pockets.

Vile terrorism. RIP all victims :(

Important ruling:...

It's only weird if you're in denial about who and what Trump is.

It's a restaurant by the Ume River a few minutes' walk from our home in one of Sweden's five ugliest towns :up: they have the best tiny chocolate...

Pardoning some lame corrupt Democrat isn't an impeachable offense, its just weird.

Indeed: https://xkcd.com/1122/ But it may not be spurious.

What are you going to do, acquit him again?

With a small enough sample, you get all kinds of spurious correlations.

Post-Brexit immigration system has been announced which is an improvement on what we had and what I wanted. Non-discriminatory, looser immigration...

Depends if you consider Trump to be Presidential. I don't. But yes as I said a while back - Republicans have some electoral success with older...

Kinda scary if the outcome ends up depending on the engagement of infrequent/irregular voters.

A margin enough to flip Michigan. As for appeals to racism, sexism, and xenophobia, that is (was?) anti-establishment all the way. And nothing...

The best indicators of a Democrat switching to Trump wasn't being anti-establishment; it was racism, sexism, and xenophobia. The GOP haven't...

In the recent past Biden and/or Bloomberg would be the best bet. But things are different now. Of the reasons Clinton lost, some big ones may...

It's not the Trump campaign or depressing "no homo" blue voters I'd be concerned with, there. It's the effect of the church pulpits two days before...

Corrupt politician jailed for trying to profit from his political office. Gee, why would Trump want to pardon him.
