Assistance Please - The Last Word - censored in...

...Qatar/ME?

LOD was showing excerpts from the Kushener interview. When Kushner was questioned about MBS and Kashoggi the cable tv provider cut the transmission to a commercial break. That was no case of incompetence nor a coincidence. Somebody didn't want the ME audience to see what transpired.

Can anyone watching TLW let me know if the answer Kushner gave was significant? I can't imagine LOD would feature this clip without good reason?

Thanks in advance.

Some posters have have expressed concern about what the rest of the world thinks of Americans?

I think this is a good representation of the general view?

Also, for Twitterers, the trending #ICancelledMytripToLondon is worth a look, if you appreciate Brit humour.

Two Ronnies - Blue Passports

When 24 carat comedy meets current affairs. Laughed until I sh*t myself.

To assist our American friends, and those too young to know, I recommend you google 'Two Ronnies Four Candles' for context.

“The best argument against democracy is a five minute conversation with the average voter.” - Winston Churchill

In view of the actions of those idiots, a slim hope for those of us who want to wake up out of this nightmare.

A petition for a re-run, seems the referendum might not have met the required criteria for an absolute mandate?

I've already signed, it has passed the required 100,000 sigs six-fold, but the more the better IMO.

Well done England/Wales (wait for it)...

... we have just cured our in-growing toenail by amputating the leg.

Idiots!
