The General Political Thread

[Cara]

Wasn't there also suspicions that some of the "leaks" where fake?

Anyhow former PM Manuel Valls links up with En Marche! Opinions?

Yeah exactly as Richard Ferrand, Macron's spokesman, said today in a newsconference. A judge has opened an investigation we will see.

He said it but "En Marche!" replied that he didn't follow their investiture protocol He is politically close of Macron but he is too linked to the precedent presidency.

Oh wow what an idiot.

Anyhow former PM Manuel Valls links up with En Marche! Opinions?

He needs a lifeboat and En Marche! is the only one available. Duh.

[Theodin]

Weren't even WikiLeaks skeptical about the relevance of the leaks? That's what I saw from them on Twitter at least

[StevenChilton]

Looks like the French are working on their next set of demands from the rest of the EU-lets hope sufficient pieces of silver can be found in time. Never understood why Britain always got the blame for not putting 'Europe' first.

Strasbourg is the logical choice

[Furrnox]

Can't say that I care where it's put if Strasbourg is the most cost effective choice then sure why not?

Sad! Down with Trump!

Completely legit news

[Riddlez]

It is noteworthy, indeed. And I am not kidding. It says a lot how a person wants to come across.

Or it is a subtle note of power to people he needs/wants to coerce into doing something. If that is the case, he probably didn't think about it himself (because really, nobody does)
If it's not, then it's extremely childish and inconsiderate. Again, says something about a person's character.

Rly makes U think

Really gets the noggin' joggin'


really stimulates the synapses

[AP0CALYPS3]

Makes those neurons fire

[Riddlez]

Though, really... The fact you need to report on it either means:
- Your country has so few problems there is nothing else to report
- There genuinly is nothing to report that day
- Your journalists aren't capable of doing more
- There is news, but it's too complex to dumb down for a news report

Spoiler

Nah really those reporters were all hoping for a scandal, couldn't find one, so they created one.

It's all a leftist conspiracy of the Goldman-Sachs news agencies who want to reinstall communism.

Spoiler

Nah really it was the democrats
