Bus to tell Brexiteers that we’ve now left the EU, nation hopes they fall...

A message on the side of a bus will inform Brexiteers that Britain has now left the EU while the rest of the country hopes they fall for it again. The original Brexit bus claimed that Britain sent £350 million a week to the EU, money we would be able to spend on the NHS instead. While that message was a load of old bobbins, plenty of people fell for it. That is why a new bus message will tell Brexiteers that Britain has now left the EU while sane and rational people cross their fingers and hope they fall for the same trick again. It appears the scheme is already working as a picture of the bus has been shared over 10,000 times on social media, with Brexiteers leaving celebratory messages. ‘Missed the big news but if it says it on the side of a bus it must be true!’ posted @AreKuntry on Twitter. The Brexit bus will tour Britain until every Brexiteer believes we’ve left the EU, the country will then return to business as usual.

The politics television station C-SPAN is sending its bus on a road trip around Alaska later this month, and residents of Juneau, Fairbanks and Anchorage will have a chance to check out its onboard television studio and take pop quizzes. C-SPAN is holding public events in Juneau on June 18 and 19, in Fairbanks on June 22 and June 23 and in Anchorage on June 25, 26 and 27. The bus is on a tour of all 50 state capitals to promote the 40-year-old station. C-SPAN broadcasts live streams of congressional proceedings and public affairs programs. Its stops in Juneau, Fairbanks and Anchorage are coordinated with GCI, the telecommunications company that broadcasts C-SPAN programs. Each stop will include several public open houses, where Alaskans can climb on board. Among the segments will be one with Mark Adams, an author from the New York City area who just published a book about traveling in Alaska called "Tip of the Iceberg." He'll be interviewed by Libby Casey, a former public radio reporter in Alaska who now works for The Washington Post. The station is also trying to schedule times with Gov. 12-1:45 p.m., Juneau Rotary – Westmark Baranof Hotel, 127 N. Franklin St. (Bus will be parked at 105 S. Seward St., in front of Sealaska Heritage Institute.)

‘Criminals on board’: Georgia governor candidate begins deportation bus tour

Bus tours have become a staple of the American political campaign, but one candidate for governor in the state of Georgia, Michael Williams, wants you to know that his is different: “It’s not going to be one of those pansy political bus tours.” 'Deadly and unconstitutional': Trump attacks California sanctuary cities Read more In a video released on Wednesday, emerging from a grey, prison corrections-style vehicle, the self-proclaimed “fearless conservative” Williams said he planned to “fill this bus with illegals and send them back to where they came from”. On the bus’s rear it reads: “Murderers, rapists, kidnappers, child molestors [sic] and other criminals on board.” Just below, the lettering adds: “Follow me to Mexico.” He’s dubbed it the Deportation Bus Tour, but the easy conflation Williams makes between the undocumented people in the US he calls “illegals” and violent crime is unsupported by the facts. In campaign ads he’s described himself as “Leading The Fight Against Illegal Immigration In Georgia” and he has also pushed hard against so-called sanctuary cities in the state – municipalities which do not allow local law enforcement to collaborate with immigration officials in order to deport undocumented people in their custody. She is a 29-year-old local Dreamer, or recipient of the Daca program, which protects eligible undocumented youth from the threat of deportation but was ordered scrapped by Donald Trump last year and is a huge part of the agonised, ongoing national immigration debate. “People already hate us. Mello came to the US from Brazil when she was seven years old, and her parents worked jobs cleaning homes and delivering car parts to give Mello and her sister the possibility of a better life. The same day Williams set off on his deportation bus tour, Trump was in California for a roundtable discussion on the state’s sanctuary provisions for undocumented people. Williams has admitted that his bus tour isn’t actually planning to round anyone up, nor could it legally, of course. But we will fight back,” Nicholls said. The Republican primary vote is on Tuesday 22 May.
