But when you say a large percentage of the electorate didn't understand the issues, you get told you're being elitist. And I'm willing to bet everyone on here understands them rather more that than they did before. Even if not changing their minds. -- *We never really grow*up, we only learn how to act in public.

Senile Troll Alert!
On Fri, 28 Sep 2018 05:33:23 +1000, cantankerous trolling senile geezer Rot
Speed blabbered, again: Could be almost true. Merkel needs to send her excess migrants somewhere. She doesn¢t have an excess, that¢s why she invited 1M illegals to her country, stupid. It's not "her" country, senile idiot! The Germans (and many German politicians) are more or less fed up with her. -- Example of typical Rot Speed babble (watch the punctuation used by the blabbermouth! LOL): "But it can make a lot more sense to realise that the really stupid will get the operation they bought the phone from to set it up so it can be used than to try to explain to the most stupid who don¢t even understand what a sim is for how to get something so small and fiddly into an iphone."
