Nationalism doesn't mean you hate anyone. It means you love your country more.

I'm sure the pound sterling has fallen on the news. I've not checked but just very sure.

The Tories nationalism is in contrast with their love of the free markets. Brexit is economic suicide

Congratulations to Boris and the Tories.

Next up. 3 November 2020.

You can say that again.

The liberal tears is tasty. They wouldn't even know what hit them. 3 Nov will be R-rated.

The annoying part is that they aren't even trying to right their wrongs and get the regular Joe and Jane to trust them again. Instead, they're intent on going even further left with a massive F U to anyone who so much as coughs about their "policies", if you can call it that.

Election started 7am yesterday lasted till 10pm. By 12 midnight Result was already coming out. This morning result has been announced and by Monday they are sworn in and work starts.

I went to vote by 9pm yesterday. I did not see Military men, thugs, mobile police. There was no oga boys sharing money.

They asked me my address and full name. Gave me a piece of paper and I voted in 2 mins.

Nigeria will conduct local government elections and result will remain with INEC collation till result is doctored and Pharmacied.

We are not ready yet

They will even declare it inconclusive.

Then you have 3000 cases filed up to Supreme court...so that lawyers and j...... will chop theirs.

This is an interesting, historic development. Tories win majority but this leads to another serious problem; the future of UK is threatened. Eyes will be on Scotland because there will be some political movements . I see Scotland seeking to determine their own independence which will lead to dissolution of the union.

The pounds actually rise so strongly against dollars and euro. I lack words to describe why that was so.

I voted on my way to the office. It was just like walking into your office building and saying hi to the receptionist, then continue to your office

The guys vying for district representative in my area actualy came to my house to campaign. Once u open door, they will greet u with your full names. No camera or crowd. Just you and them, discussing one on one like friends.

Soo true, though I never got to meet my MP due to the nature of my job but for once I felt happy to vote knowing that my vote would count & my ballot paper wouldn't be lost in transit.
Voting didn't take me more than 5 mins and the best part of it is I didn't have to wait for days to know the result of the election.

Lol, you and your beer parlor economics , such a joke.
Forex responds to stable economies and government. Pre-election, the uncertainty of Brexit drove the pound to its lowest level in years but as exit polls began to show a strong majority, pound surged to very strong levels.
Investors are confident that Brexit would get done and the government will now have a clear direction. This is what investors want to see, a stable economy.

Though I agree that the UK will now have a clear direction , yet the govt is not sure the extent of uncertainties lying in wait. It's looking like a ding ding affair. It can easily sink the UK or UK can float. We will soon see what will happen.

(Nigerian)tribalism and nationalism are pretty much the same thing. Unless you don't understand them well enough
You're actually correct. But you know tribalism is a negative microcosm of nationalism.
While nationalism looks to enforce the people's right to determine their own destiny and direction, tribalism looks to identify with individuals and promote whatever they put forward as good for the people not what the people decide is good for themselves

P.S: Tribalism isn't a Nigerian thing alone o. Even the Brits are tribalists

Permit me to innocently ask for educational purpose;

1.What does the UK stand to gain from Brexit
2. what will they probably lose if they successfully pull out from EU ?

Yeah, every one knows that Brexit is just started as trade deals and other negotiations will be a long drawn out process but yeah, the country now has a direction.
It's like a divorce that has taken too long of which couple are already tired. They want to move on, potential suitors are shying away cos the wife still wears her wedding band.
Her relatives are warning her of the uncertainties that lie ahead as a single mother but she eventually takes a stand and tell them "fvck it, if I perish, I perish".
Now that she is single, suitors can look her way. Will her life be bliss after the divorce? Who knows! But at least she knows she is free to chart her own life course.

you're correct to an extent in my opinion, but it's much broader than you put it.

Why I put (Nigerian)as a prefix is because Nigerian tribalism is actually nationalism. Each tribe is a homogeneous nation with a lot in common like languages which they share. All over the world humans are tribal. So it's normal for Brits to be tribal afterall they're actually different people lumped together, the Scot, irish, Welsh and English with pretty much different languages.

bro don't mind some of these people. Many of them are 100% selfish and hypocritical such that if given the position they'll do the exact thing they're accusing others of.

Personally, I've never been supporter of unnecessary mass immigration and worse if it's illegal.

We like to condemn Whites for doing what we take as normal lifestyle for us because we always have that victim mentality.

I wouldn't call tribalism as we have it now in Nigeria, nationalism. Nationalism is an agenda which people can identify with based on issues affecting them. In the first republic, we had that. Yoruba believed in high taxes with free health and education with a strong south to match. Igbos somewhat tended towards economic integration and commerce, while the Hausas identified religion and culture as their own primary agenda. When tribalism came up, issues are swept aside and identity with personalities become the order of the day. Look at the 2019 elections for example, what were the main issues? It was simply a case of which personality each tribe believed will give them access to power. Every other consideration was secondary. That's what I'm talking about.
