I used to think that we're the craziest, when it comes to politics, until I saw Lord Buckethead and the fact that about 250 people voted for him.

Loved the the Theresa May eye roll, as they were reading the results :-)

@Northwest: Lord Buckethead actually has a more realistic understanding of Brexit than May. Its not an exaggeration.

@Burnley123: yes, sadly it's true. I wonder what the guy does for an actual living

@Northwest: probably a student lol

When's the last time some deranged freak opened fire on UK politicians?
Our last time was...today.

@Burnley123: Good point. If I remember the guy who did it was fully indoctrinated in to the far right movement. You have to wonder if these types of people dive in to their sewers, live a fantasy where they believe they're powerful due to their beliefs, something clicks and then they go off.

@Ynotisay: All that is true but it does also tell you about angrey divisions which exist just below (and sometimes above) the surface in Britain. UK nationalism has right wing and jingoistic tendencies because of our imperial past. Hard times and racism becoming acceptable in mainstream politics poor fuel on the fire.

Similar situation here. Some have been fed a steady diet of fear and enemies to blame. Unfortunately, they've been purposefully told to fight against the wrong enemies.

Well, considering that our president is officially under investigation for obstruction of justice today...it's a toss up.

@Lizabee: Our Prime Minister has no majority and is openly hated by her own party. She will be negotiating Brexit, if she lasts.

@Burnley123: I'd like to see her go.

USA but Uk are fast catching up btw Italian politics are crazy to.

@CuTiePi: This crazy thing is new to us.
CuTiePi · F
@Burnley123: yeah so many new things going on at such an unsettled time with both countries.

Both but maybe US is a bit more crazier due to the size of it

I don't know as much about UK politics as I probably should.

@bijouxbroussard: You know a enough though. Brexit and our latest election have made look like a 'character' to our European neighbours.
