| No Comments

UPDATE BELOW

England's exit from the European Union has some interesting side effects - it seems that the Henny Pennys promoting Anthropogenic Climate Change are also of the mental mind-set that views big centralized government as a good thing and independent sovereign nations as a bad thing.

From the London Daily Mail:

John Oliver calls Boris Johnson a 'shaved orangutan' and David Cameron a 'pig-f***er' in nine-minute anti-Brexit rant on US TV
John Oliver came out swinging in the latest episode of his HBO satirical news-comedy show Last Week Tonight, as the expat Brit tackled the Brexit vote.

Oliver's avowedly pro-EU stance is at odds with his home country, which unexpectedly voted to leave the European Union on Thursday.

'Let us begin straight away with The United Kingdom,' Oliver at the top of the show, 'a place whose very name, after this week's events, is beginning to sound a bit sarcastic.'

For the next ten minutes he relentlessly pummeled the pro-Leave lobby - whom he characterized as oafs and liars - and also ex-British Prime Minister David Cameron, whom he called a 'pig-f***er'.

OKAY - this from a guy who decided to emigrate from England to the United States?
