flag-75047_640Religious intolerance in India would’ve shocked Mahatma Gandhi.
—Obama.
Racial intolerance in US would have shocked Martin Luther King.
—Reality.

Obama made snide remarks about Indian intolerance.
US religious committees tried to butt in.
They should look into their own backyard.

US.
18th century—Independent.
19th century—Ended slavery.
20th century—Ended segregation.
21st century—Still fighting for racial equality.

Thatcher first woman head of State of West in 1979.
UK repeating with Theresa in 2016, while US still struggling with a first.

UK got its first man PM in 1721.
It got a woman PM 258 years later.
US got its first man President in 1789.
1789 + 258 = 2047.
If Hillary misses the bus, then US could break UK’s record.

When the human race becomes extinct, will Mother Earth celebrate ‪#‎Humanexit‬?

The last Brit to win the Wimbledon’s men’s singles was way back in 1936.
(Headline after ‪#‎Scotexit‬)

At this rate, “exit” will become the greatest suffix of the century, as # has already emerged as the Number one prefix.

May will become Prime Minister in July.

The USA and India did great when the Brits left.
Don’t worry EU!
‪#‎Brexit‬

#‎Brexit‬
‪#‎Cameronexit‬
‪#‎Faragexit‬
Looks like it’s a chain reaction…
‪#‎Corbynexit‬
‪#‎Scotexit‬
‪#‎Ausexit‬
‪#‎NorthIrelandexit‬
‪#‎NextIsWhatExit‬

Modi’s knowledge of economics can be written on the back of a postage stamp.
—P Chidambaram.
Chidu’s bosses’ (Pappu and Sonia) knowledge of everything can be written on the back of a postage stamp.

Modi Hater on the glass half-full half-empty analogy…
The glass is tainted, it is half empty and the other half is contaminated water.

Abusing Modi in the comfort of their lavish Lutyens’ homes, they even have a problem with Modi being politely addressed as “Mr Prime Minister” in an interview.

When media wants to make her a private citizen, it’s Priyanka Vadra.
When media wants to make her a politician, it’s Priyanka Gandhi.
‪#‎Pappini‬

#‎DynastyCliches‬
Priyanka is coming.
Sonia is unhappy.
Pappu is relaunching.
Rajiv invented a, b, c… x, y, z.
Vadra is a private citizen.

Priyanka bas aa rahi hai politics main.
Sab ki chutti kar degi. Indira jaisi hai.
“Coming soon” since 1998. Yawn!
‪#‎Pappini‬

The roles of Pappu and Pappini keep getting larger and larger with each passing year and yet they are still so teeny weeny.
‪#‎CongressSinking‬

Great progress…
1947: Nehru Dynasty.
1966: Nehru-Gandhi Dynasty.
2019: Nehru-Gandhi-Vadra Dynasty?

Kejri started off by being an alternative to Modi.
He will end up being a genuine 100% replacement of Lalu.

Kejri—Modi trying to finish off AAP!
Modi—Maaf kar bhai! That’s one job you’re doing excellently.
Why should I interfere?
Ditto Pappu/Cong.

For every promise Kejriwal breaks, one of his MLAs goes to jail.
At this rate he will be left with zero MLAs by 2020.
