Hi all

...Why is someone pretending to be @Tommy Robinson

I can't remember if we had CoolMathGames or not in maths class @Deleted User

I remember we had MyMaths

Erm

Michael Jordan

Shaquille O'Neal

Kobe Bryant

Kareem, yup

Those were off the top of my head

Just a guy

Hi

Can someone help me understand how the electoral college system works (not from the US)?

So from what I understand, if you win the popular votes in a state, you win all the EC votes in that state

Just curious

And the number of EC votes for a state is determined by the number of representatives and senators for that state

Yeah

But then the number of reps is determined by the size of the state

I thought California had more EC votes though, because it has a lot of representatives

I'm from London and voted remain

But I respect the result of the referendum

I voted for Boris

As I couldn't fathom the damage that Corbyn will do to the economy

Yeah

Same here @TheBritishGamer ❤🔑 (Meh)

OK sure

Yeah

I am not impressed with the selection of candidates so far

Yup

And the trouble is that any Labour MP who I think would be good as leader

Has no leadership ambitions

Yup

Starmer is considered as being more centre-left

Labour needs to get rid of the stranglehold the far-left currently has over the party

But I think without making a full return to New Labour

Even though I can't stand Blair

You watch him in interviews and he does make sense

Like he said that when Labour lost the general election in 1983

A lot of far-left Labour party members said that it was because they weren't far left enough

So why then would they vote for the Tories lol

Yep

Agreed

Neither Miliband nor Corbyn were credible opposition leaders

Yep

Eating bacon when he is of Jewish descent

I think that killed his credibility as a leader

Erm, yeah no

I think Corbyn is another of those left-leaning hypocrites

Comes from a comfortably middle-class background

Are you sure that isn't just for the cameras?

Oh yeah

Supporting the IRA terrorist who bombed the Tory conference

No matter what you may think of politicians or those who support a particular party

You know his wife, Laura Alvarez, imports coffee from her native Mexico, and pays her workers dirt-cheap?

Yet he goes on about workers' rights

I don't watch sports

FeelsBadMan

I feel like we should be talking about <#524301554719784981> again lol

Maybe we need a sports channel on here

Yup

Plus, what was with Corbyn having wonky glasses during the campaign?

And his glasses being partly steamed up?

lol

Like, with regards to Brexit

I didn't think that there was much substance behind the Tories' election rhetoric

But I didn't want Corbyn to get into office

Yup

I think #getbrexitdone has become the new #maga lol

Yup

From Benjamin Disraeli if I'm not mistaken

@HeadlessCowboy The Republicans control the Senate anyway, so not as though anything actionable could have come from impeaching Trump

No, I just like this picture lol @Wayne

I take it they haven't looked at the fine print 🙃

Hi there

I'm from the UK

Tried to watch a live stream of the impeachment

But after several minutes, gets tedious

Probably intelligence services.

He was in bed with the CIA and Mossad

LOL Vlad

I see what you did there

I don't believe in the idea of tribal loyalty @JesusHand

I'm not from the US

But when I vote

I vote for whomever I think will fuck up the country the least

The thing is

What if a politician make a promise

Then they are blocked at every possible corner from making good on that promise by their political rivals

Do you say they are lying Then?

I can give you a good example

I'm not from the US

But even I know the president can't pardon themselves if they are being impeached

Yup

Also issued more executive orders than Obama did @Stresbal

Do you know what really made me happy? @Stresbal

That by the end of last year, we had like a record number of protests worldwide

People have had enough
