Is there a way of filtering out the politic posts like you can with adult posts, for all of us who are not American or just bored of politics?

Lol, that's funny. I am American and see British politics like 80% more often than US. I have decided that Parliament is my favorite reality TV show. I'd probably watch C-span (US congressional TV) if it was entertaining. I already know I'll miss John Bercow's quips.
