The General Political Thread

[McPero]

So you agree with us Russia should return Crimea and cease supporting its vassal states in eastern Ukraine? Now we're getting somewhere.

I agree Russia should fuck off from Ukraine and do another referendum in Crimea about being in Russia or Ukraine. Maybe referendum even in other parts (those in east). Referendums being watched by Russia, Ukraine, USA, Switzerland/Austria.

So what is the point in you arguing in against me and duuring

I don't know Duuring said Russia is threat to Germany. And you just started accusing me of things Council was saying. Plus Duuring's HOI was crashing so he was bored.

Hmm, this ain't gonna be good for relations with Eastern Europe (which are already terrible)

I don't think they really care, but nevertheless it mad me wonder who will succeed Juncker nexy year. I guess it also depends on if the EPP becomes the biggest faction but that's kinda a given.

Nobody seems to blame philosophers (for example Johann Gottfried Herder) that invented nationalism for what Hitler, Mussolini, Japan did, all national heros.

Big thanks to the gentleman McPero. I really respect your adequate and independent opinion.
Thank you for living in reality. Thankee for Duuring and Toffee for having a disscussion, pardon me for being not a good collocutor since i’m not on that english level to openly translate the whole scene in my mind.

So we've been bashing on Russia for a while now what's next? Turkey maybe?

[Edwin]

Thoughts on the UK local elections?

[Duuring]

Labour winning in urban (pro-stay) areas, Tories in rural and northern England (pro-leave) areas. We might be looking at a serious re-alignment happening.

Most of the gains were from no overall control. If you compare the colour map to the 2014 one it’s not majorly different. Nobody gained that much tbh.

[Duuring]

That's the thing. Both are gaining votes where they don't need it and losing them where they didn't win before. It's against political strategy.

I mean it has to be USA or Swedistan.
