What does

high bar for misconduct in public office

actually mean? Do they have to murder and skull fuck someone on live TV or something before the CPS actually investigates?

🤣

Not sure you understand the article or the issue behind it.

I'd say gtfo of there, but that won't be easy without free movement in the EU, and these aren't the kind of people who can budget for emigration.

Can't afford my rent rise, I know I'll freedom of movement somewhere else..... What the absolute F?

Wait a sec, I always thought she was Jewish herself?

To be honest I'm not surprised as she is famous for her verbal diarrhoea. People seem to love it when she's calling Boris a cunt on the radio. Not so much now though.

A politician has no problem throwing his Irish roots under the bus Biden in no way represents the good Irish folk,

I think we're agreeing on this point. Im just going one further and saying I don't think he's a true Zionist either. He's a Zionist because it suits him politically. Just like he's Irish when it shits him politically. He's 100% team USA.

I'm not sure how ideologically Starmer is attached to israel, but his political carreer and israel are very much intertwined.

Absolutely true. Especially if the middle east situation drags on.

Nobody is under any illusion that israel isn't committing Genocide anymore

True that. Realistically what can anyone do about it when the US will shield them?

Ahh gotcha. Yeah I was actually thinking the same. I thought how bad could it be? Oh. Bad. Shit.

It's all about the longest running election campaign in the world. The US elections. I don't understand why it needs to be this long 😂. France, the UK, India (over a billion people!) can announce and complete elections quicker than the US.

I would love some more intelligent and nuanced spam filtering but, honestly, I don't think we'll get anything soon enough.

It'll get better in November, but then we'll get a wave of spam about stolen elections. And then better again in January when they finally finish the election game.

I thought memes were supposed to be funny? Oh... and also make sense?

Are we not doing that anymore? Is this AI?

How can he be both a proud Irishman 🇮🇪 (given it's complex history with occupation and colonialism) and also a Zionist? 🤔. Something doesn't sound right.

Unless, and hear me out, he's simply a Zionist when it suits him electorally and he's an Irishman 🇮🇪 when it suits him electorally too. In other words: he knows which way his bread is buttered. Same with Starmer although I doubt he'd go as far to actually proclaim himself as a Zionist. He's not stupid.

Whether he (Biden that is) is actually a Zionist I don't know but my guess is that he feels a stronger belonging to Ireland than Israel but understands how to play politics when it suits him. He is also more strongly an American than an Irishman 🇮🇪 so if it suits the USA but angers Ireland then so be it. For example I don't think he's exactly popular in Ireland for that very reason right now.
