To The Left, If You Are Bemused And Confused, This Might Help.

If you can't understand what's happening, Jonathan Pie explains it very well. Some fruity language. Thanks to zebo for posting this on another thread I thought it would benefit from a thread of it's own.

I've just booked to see him live in February
I'm just hoping he won't be as preachy or self righteous as Stuart Lee

I can't...I'm on Safari, and have uninstalled Flash (because you REALLY should not have Flash Player installed).

All I see on my page is a little symbol that reads 'Missing Plug-in'.

Seriously - please uninstall Flash Player if you have it on your browser. It's a security nightmare.

Ric ror, he's a bit ranty for my taste but hope you enjoy the show.

Jonathan Pie is not real.
It is a p|ss take. Like Alan Partridge or Alf Garnett.
It is the creation of a comedy actor who is poking fun at news bloggers.

If by posting this you think you are proving a point, then you are clearly missing the joke. The Alf Garnett character has two audiences, those who laughed with him, and those who laughed at him.

I fear you are laughing with the Jonathan Pie comedy character, rather than laughinh at him.

Tora it amuses me how you post all the time about moaning remainers and liberalist lefties complaining about how things turned out and yet you are the only one kicking up a fuss.

If you put 'Brexit' in the search bar on AB, you will see that since the beginning of October, there have been 34 questions on Brexit.

Three have been from a Remainer point of view, and 31 have been from those supporting Leave.

It appears that you may be on to something.

Rather than the Remain constituency of AB endlessly moaning, it's actually the winning side, Leave - who are doing all the complaining.

Or rather - it's not complaining. It's point-scoring and gloating.

And I'm suspect that those of us who voted to remain would have been no different.

It's the SGBs again, sp- the Still Gloating Brigade.
I think some of the posters here are confused about left/right issues. I've been called a right-on leftie for example on Brexit and Muslim threads when I have not voted Labour since I voted for Callaghan in 1979 and have voted Tory since 1983. Being concerned about trump doesn't make you a lefty either- I would have preferred another Republican candidate. But let's give Trump a chance

[Zacs-Master]

Thank goodness some others are starting to realise it's actually the leave voters who post considerably more Qs than remain.

[youngmafbog]

So you are still doing it, just using stats to belittle this time. Remoaners are making the most noise so obviously there will be more questions.

You just dont get it do you?

This is an interesting response to the Trump result from Sam Harris. the whole thing's worth listening to but he makes a similar point to the Jonathon Pie character starting around 12.50..

This is similar without a rant.
