Oh this is just hilarious. I'm banned from having an account on GPO, yet am somehow mysteriously able to send out messages such as... Post in thread 'General Chat thread' https://www.generalpolitics.online/threads/general-chat-thread.143/post-29960

Welcome @O'Sullivan Bere

Looks like Augustine is Hans' latest sock over there.

Would have thought Macron was more of a N.apoleonic figure?

One major problem across the Third World, particularly within Africa, is that of overpopulation. Their populations are booming, yet they haven't the resources to keep themselves afloat today - let alone in the future with much greater populations. It could be the case that in the future, it...

Val might have a lesson or two concerning snow which could come in handy for the Finns and others dealing with snow and cold temperatures. 😅

Very sorry to hear about your loss Maurice. I've lost a close family member in recent years, as I'm sure others have here too. It's possibly the most difficult thing in all of life to cope with. Hopefully they are in a better place, they will certainly always live on in our memories.

I think we have the opportunity to build an interesting and lasting community here on Politics Isle. What I can say is, is that this website is unique in so many ways and has it's own quirks. All too often, newly founded sites turn into copycat versions of the larger ones. That will not be the...

Welcome @MauriceColgan

You'd have to wonder if Maradona would have put as many balls in the net for Dublin or Kerry as he did for Argentina. Though it may have been the case that he wasn't suited for the game at all. It's certainly sad to see how downhill his life went during his later years. He'll always be...

There's certainly a divide between Paris and the Provinces in France. A lot of provincials feel hard done by, and Parisians often look down on them as lesser mortals.

Aren't the Bush family pretty much dismissed as RINO's these days? I'd imagine Mitch and perhaps even Pence will aquire the label in time due to recent events.

There's talk of a MAGA-style party? It would be somewhat of a miracle if such a party did win given America's two party system. Trump's best bet would be to run for GOP nominee again if he wants to get re-elected presumably.

He might still run in 2024 though? Biden is certainly getting on in years. It could be Trump vs. a new Democratic candidate in 24. Biden is no spring chicken and four years is an age in politics. In saying that, would the GOP have Trump back?

Last day of the Trump presidency.

You'd have to wonder if GPO is Plan B for Pish if it ever gets shut down due to upcoming laws on Hate Speech. In a way, it would actually be foolish for Hans not to have a backup plan when you think about it. Politics Pie also disappeared soon after the arrival of GPO. ▪️The two Admins on GPO...
