    I didn't ask what you thought the organisers should do. I asked you what you would do/deem to be the correct type of protest, given your dismissal of what did take place.

    As for making it easy for the right - and assuming you are not on that side of the spectrum - I tend to think that it is you, who by parroting their talking points, legitimises their stance. Arguing with the right is usually a futile exercise anyway.

    By the way, how on earth do you get that a turnout that in your mind was so bad backs up the view that an elite is running things? You get that from a few vox pop interviews? And finally - I didn't have a piss-poor turnout. I had zero involvement and didn't attend. I do have respect for those who did, and think the pettiness of the criticism does you no favour.
    p

    Would you not be better asking somebody whose skill set is getting the message out, rather than somebody who received it

    What I would do is of no consequence. I've already told you I am a mentalist

    I'm not a right winger, I think I know how they think though. I work with a lot of them. You are dealing with inverted snobs who basically see themselves as put on by "them"

    It's kind of hard to tie them down to who "they" actually are, but it seems to be anybody who they see as looking down.

    If my criticism is petty, it's a reaction to what I saw as foolish, futile and petty behaviour.

    It is of consequence - I'm interested because you're so against what happened it just seems odd that you wouldn't have an idea of how it should have been done better. Criticising without any idea of an alternative is ultimately howling at the moon stuff.

    I think you've nailed the right wings stance on things though - on that we can agree at least.

    Are you a pole-vaulter?

    No, I'm a German. How did you know my name was Wolter?

    Hope I've got this right.


    I was looking out the window and saw this man walking past, and he lifted the gate off the hinges. I was going to go out and give him what for but was afraid he might take offence.

    I knocked, and this woman opened the door in her nightgown.

    I thought "funny place to have a door".

    I once met a cowboy who had trousers, shirt and hat made of brown paper, he was wanted for rustling.

    At last!

    So, I was going to a wedding in Blackpool, and I asked this lady at the other table, "what's the best way to walk"

    She said, "put one foot in front of the other".

    I saw her later that day coming towards me in the street. I knew she was coming towards me, she was getting bigger all the time.

    She had an incredibly long nose . the woman with the extraordinarily long nose. I've nothing against long noses – they run in our family.

    When the woman hung her hooter in the air, she was able to say, with absolute certainty: "There's someone cooking cabbage in Manchester".

    Can't believe I spent the whole of yesterday doing anything that would remotely appear to be pro Trump.

    After reflecting, the demo was meant to be silly, I get that now. If people chose that way to mark history's card, so be it.

    You ask what I would do differently. Firstly, I'd be demonstrating at the Foreign Office.

    I quite liked the poll tax riots as a way of changing things, and I also admire the Women in Black.

    Trump is a buffoon just now, but I fear his second term may turn very sinister, I think our government should stay away

    One thing on how people perceived it though. Next time you look at Jacob Rees - Mogg and think "that's everything that's wrong with the right". Stop for a minute and consider that some of the exhibitionists on display on Saturday are probably representative of how right wingers see the left.

    I fear we are drifting into the Rainbow Coalition territory that was so disastrous in the 80s.

    She fell over, and her nose lodged in the tram tracks. So we just threw one of her legs over the power line and pushed her all the way to Squire's Gate.

    The next day at breakfast they brought me honey. It was in a cup the size of a thimble. I said, "oh, I see you keep a bee'

    She asked me "Aperitif?"

    "Why? Is the steak tough?"


    "Would you like a Macon?"

    "Why? You going to spill it?"



    Sigh....

    I told my psychiatrist, "when I was five I wanted to be a doctor".

    He said, "why didn't you?"

    I said, "they didn't let five year olds into medical school".

    I thought this was meant to be the Donald Trump thread?

    I’m certainly not a fan of mr Trump, nor am I against protesting against his policies and position as a world leader.

    I’m not sure how all the personal insults used in protest sits with me in terms of criticising someone for being a hateful character, though. Maybe I’m just reading too much into it though.

    I despise his fanboy Piers Morgan a lot more than trump though. I never seek to find Piers Morgan comments or pictures but somehow he always manages to appear. **** of the highest order.

    Morgan's an old hack and a wind-up merchant.

    We should worry less about Trump and more about our own problems which are considerable.

    I was walking down the street with a half-bottle of whisky in my back pocket. I fell over and felt something wet down the back of my leg. I remember thinking "God, please let it be blood".......

    A woman came across to me, she said, 'did you fall"?

    I said, "no, I'm breaking a bar of toffee in my back pocket."

    He’s too much of an asshole to go to prison. They would have to invent a new wing for him like the beasts wing ‘ the assholes wing.’

    Pretty incendiary stuff from Cohen, but while it might help in bringing about some serious scrutiny of Trump, the **** will probably find himself evading any real issues.

    What IS good to see is that Cohen is likely to spend a long period of time in jail for his part. Which is good, as the man is ****. Pure and unadulterated ****.

    Do you think there is anything in the suggestion that Cohen is trying to strike a deal? After all, it's not been proved that Trump had knowledge, there's only an allegation just now.

    More than allegation.

    Testimony under oath

    Phone call recordings


    The matter of fact in terms of the payments being made are now accepted.

    The implications of that were prison for Cohen, quite what they mean for Trump remains to be seen...

    Thing is nothing sticks to Trump; he isn't held to the same standard of 'normal' politicians. His supporters will excuse him for ANYTHING, in a cult like way. Let's see whether this latest hush money scandal finally does for him, as it should. I have my doubts.

    Phone call recording by Cohen confirms he did know as he discussed it
    Testimony from Cohen confirmed it further
    He denied it on camera on Air Force One a few months ago
    He confirmed on an interview on Fox last week he used his own money.

    The man is a pathological liar.

    His refusal to issue the standard proclamation for the flag to be flown at half mast for John McCain, the White House flag not being lowered and him sitting with his arms folded refusing to acknowledge questions on the subject from reporters sum the mans mentality up.

    Whatever your views on McCains politics he was a towering figure in US politics and his ordeal in Vietnam entitles him to comment from the sitting President.
