Actually, Hislop - again showing ignorance on the US while opining from Mt. Self Righteous - said it was going to be an interesting five years, not four, and Merton responded to that.<br /><br />Merton's tone was dark indeed, and no way is that merely my inference. Either he thinks Trump will be impeached or forced out, or assassinated. It's going to be a tedious four years if these haughty clowns are going to be like this every week.<br /><br />Also, they did their first and last Hillary joke, and it was not nice. Still, after 8 years, not a single Obamessiah joke. In fact, the only joke at His expense anywhere on the BBC has been the two little sight gags in the opening animation sequence.David Preiser (USA)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00055001852090086556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-62576938518569583132016-12-18T20:39:45.366+00:002016-12-18T20:39:45.366+00:00Had a look at Private Eye during a shop in Tescos....Had a look at Private Eye during a shop in Tescos.<br />When did it stop being funny and sharp?<br />No insights, nothing that`d scare ANYONE in power.<br />Only consolidates the powerful, shafts UKIP etc ceaselessly.<br />Like Viz-time to bury it.Alicia Sinclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13390676774343087529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-68629133904851772252016-12-18T18:07:03.746+00:002016-12-18T18:07:03.746+00:00Hislop will be too busy counting his self-righteou...Hislop will be too busy counting his self-righteous indignation feathers to bother about that.David Preiser (USA)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00055001852090086556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-79521318840720779182016-12-18T14:26:24.817+00:002016-12-18T14:26:24.817+00:00Sorry typo!
