I'm not sure if this qualifies as a new thread so if a mod feels it should be in Bits & Pieces feel free to work your magic.

Anyway, I just turned on my TV to see this news article, I found it so hilarious that I felt like I should share it here.

For our UK members, what are your thoughts on our president, Barraco Barner?

There are plenty of news articles on it from various British newspapers. I never thought I'd ever find myself saying this but it seems that the Daily Mail has the best one on it *sigh*

The Daily Mail is shit.

I would say it's a slow news day, but the revelations about IDS and our government being corrupt and liars are coming as thick and fast as ever, so this is just the press being the press.

I have nothing to say on it. If you validate shit press by giving it your time of day, it begets itself.

I can’t help but feel that putting a person up on public display like this is incredibly mean-spirited, no matter how dumb they may appear.

Wow, poor girl.

Also fuck the fucking Daily Mail.

Despite how dumb her tweet was the treatment the media have given her is basically bullying.

Almost as good as the time Adelaide Now reported on a swarm of bees hanging around a bin on Hindley Street. There were literally less than 5 sentences in the entire article, one of which was "Crowds were seen giving the bin a wide berth."

I see what you mean, it is complete coincidence that I knew about this. I switched on the TV and Loose Women was on, so as I was looking through the channels I could hear it running in the background and they were reporting on it, I found it pretty funny so decided to look it up.

Speaking of Barraco Barner, this is pretty funny.
