Nice spin there, buddy. I like how you use a dubious study to ignore all the criminal acts and all the ways he ****ed up as president but this topic isn't about the soon to be ex president.

It's about the human/rat hybrid that's currently conning a bunch of gullible people into voting for him with no known policies or manifestos in place.

If you mean that more and more people in America are putting individual differences aside and concentrating on the greatest threat to America, their president, then that is absolutely true

With the public set to vote in the European Parliament elections today, the latest polls show that Nigel Farage's Brexit Party is likely to gain the most votes in the UK.

Although the vote takes place in the UK today, the results are not expected until Sunday evening due to most other EU member states casting their votes that day.

The Conservatives are on course for their lowest ever share of the vote in a nationwide ballot and could even slip into fifth place behind the Greens.

Establishment parties are expected to suffer across the EU, both at the hands of the populist-Right as well as resurgent liberal parties.

The result is likely to be a more fragmented European Parliament, with the centre-Right EPP and centre-Left S&D forecast to lose their combined majority.

I-

of course i want to see an end to racism, but Trump doing that just seems a bit too unrealistic to be true

To break this down into a more meaningful figure:

Definitely Pro Brexit: 29
Definitely AntiBrexit: 36
??????? Who knows: 13


If you split that "question mark" group evenly (and that's being generous, the fact that 10 are Labour I think indicates that more are probably remain)

Pro Brexit: 35.5 MEP's
Anti Brexit: 42.5 MEP's

I wonder who gets the head and who gets the legs

Mr Farage was the major winner as he was elected in the South East region and said: "History has been made. This is just the beginning."

He delivered a stark warning to the Tories and Labour as he claimed The Brexit Party was ready to inflict the same damage at the next general election.

Its possible of course, but I really think this is fantasy. Kind of similar to how UKIP was going to sweep the boards, and ended up with like..3 seats or something?

Will be interesting to see how it goes though. I have for a long tme wished there were different players to the usual tory v labour, and it seems its possible the lib dems have regained some support (I really do think, without the coalition they would have had a chance at being in on their own, they were gaining steadily until then) and this brexit party..maybe.
