New Quiz show: Which country can have the biggest clusterf***?

The two contestants are Britain and the USA. Brexit vrs the wall. The task is to have a really ugly, messy and bonkers constitutional crisis based on an absurd idea which costs loads of money and benefits nobody. The crisis must be caused by fears of immigration and post-imperial nostalgia. The task must include no plan, or (at least as a bare minimum requirement) no workable plan. It must cause anger, polarisation and bad faith arguments. It must create a bind for which there is no obvious or easy way out.

Who will win?

Brexit costs taxpayers 500,000,000 pounds a week, which completely crushes the wall's prospective 5.6 billion USD per year.

I will let you know Tuesday, after 7PM PST. My gut tells me that whatever Trump comes up with, during his 6PM PST speech, is going to make what you're going through, look like a walk in the park.

Brexit is the biggest clusterfuck in terms of dollars and impact, so the UK wins. With the loss, can the USA and the Wall be relegated?

@windinhishair Yeah but you are like Burnley fc and just outside the bottom three. 😉

@Burnley123 Perhaps, but 2019 is just beginning. Wait until you see the rest of the year.

Bloody hell! You have us beat with Brexit.
Burnley123 · 41-45, M
@abe182 Spot on guv.
It’s crazy how similar they are
But at least we know where the problems are coming from. As lefty liberals I guess this shows our priorities have to be to tackle xenophobia and the actual [i]project fear[/i] that immigration rhetoric and reporting has become. Other issues could take a backseat, since they are all also being made worse by this mess?

Obviously GB because Brexit has been mandated by the citizens vote. The wall fence barrier bollard may or may not happen. I sure hope the alligator filled moats happen. I recommend:
