At least he's not in power any more though I wouldn't rule out the possibility of him trying to do a political comeback.

So everyone’s been talking about US politics even though this is Europe, so I’m gonna try to start a talk that has to do with Europe: What do you think was the most important war in Europe and why?

So it seems the SNP won't be getting a majority at this year's parliamentary elections. Disappointing but hopefully the Greens will help maintain the pro-independence majority.

As an outsider and general onlooker, can you explain what going on with the Labour Party. It performance apparently was "bad, bad."

Labour has performed very badly across the UK for a long time now but their woes in Scotland have been particularly dire. They used to dominate Scottish politics for decades but ever since the Scottish Parliament was re-established in 1999, the party's fortunes in Scotland have been slowly decimated by the SNP, to the point that they are now the dominant force in our politics since 2008.

As for Labour in England, they have utterly lost touch with their voter base who has turned to the Tories for a whole range of factors, including Brexit. To sum up, Labour is in crisis.

How many terms do Indian Prime ministers have

I know the President can only serve 5 years

There are no term limits from what I've read.

I think WW2 was the most important as it led to the formation of the EU which has brought about European peace and unity on a scale we haven't seen on the continent in forever.

Thanks for the information. I liked Jeremby Corbyn, time to time I would check up to see how he was going. He no longer the leader anymore sadly. I guess you guys will need to live with Boris Johnson/ Conservative rule for a long time. Lets see if Scotland will try to get another refredum called.

I’d say the 7 years war isn’t looked at much and had a much grander significant impact to the world and Europe.

I am hoping for a second referendum.

It's stiff competition between the 2 world wars as WW1 finished off many of the great empires and ushered in communism. Arguably without WW1 there may never have been WW2 so you may be right actually.

Time to register as a voter in India and vote for the guy who’s not modi

I’d look into it, it’s pretty interesting, some historians/people tend to call it “the true First World War”

Isn't he some kind of dog-whistler for islamophobic people?

Not just Islam, he’s also against Sikhism, Jainism and Christianity

Basically he’s a Hindu supremacist

I think you refering to his history of encouraging and playing a blind eye to muslim killings and prosecution. I also think he tried to ban muslims from killing cow for religious reasons.

I’m not even Indian and I know a lot about Indian politics and that’s very unusual nowadays

The only good i think he did is trying to build up the Indian Navy and deterence against China.

I guess Rahul Gandhi since he’s not a complete psychopath

Yes I will give him credit for that.

But it’s almost the same argument for the good things that trump did - improving border security (though the methods were unethical) and improving the economy
