OV9

This series of videos is horrific. It starts bang-on curfew time but the march had already been corralled into this choke point while coming to an end. The third one is when it gets crazy:

I can’t make out much except the police come in and it looks like a mess from then onwards. What’s with the cyclists blocking the protestors on the pedestrian crossings? Or are they all trying to block the road?

The police kettle them in from both sides, then just push in leaving the protestors with nowhere to go.

Not the best way to de escalate a situation, that. And they probably know it.

Who said it - Trump or Partridge?

I got 8, I was surprised by a couple that were trump tbh. Like a real person couldn’t have said that

97%, 11 out of 12 and I’ve never watched AP.

The transcripts of his press appearances are something else. I know its in a politician's DNA to avoid answering any questions they don't want-to, but he doesn't even pretend to be interested half the time and goes on these amazing rambles about stuff that's not even vaguely related to the original question. While simultaneously saying how great he is.

Its all very strange.

This could easily be a Trump quote though!

I wasn't confident when I was answering them, it was definitely a best guess.

Probably why you got a poor result

It did start as “Having never watched Alan Partridge I’m amazed I got 11 out of 12”, then I spotted the opportunity and reworded it.

LOL I don’t honestly know if we’re laughing at the same thing! What specific part of your post do you think made me compare it to trump?

It sounds exactly like one his BS claims that’s against the trend or expectation, he often tags something in at the end of the sentence in a similar way.

nope, that wasn't the part that made me think of Trump...

How’s your maths?
