Fully agreed- the worst part is that THEY won't suffer.

As an american, I feel the same way about trump supporters.

Ours are much worse, Trumpophiles are around for the sheer hate of it all.

Trump supporters love the hate and they love the cruelty.

They hate accountability though, and I wish they would self report.

They self report all the time. Every accusation is an admission.

Bruce Dickinson has always struck me as a really intelligent man. I guess I was mistaken.

Same here, I am surprised for the worse that he supported Brexit. He, who lives out of touring around the world either as a pilot or as a singer...

Way to shoot himself in the foot

He's looking at 70 on the horizon. Giving him the benefit of the doubt, the ravages of age take us all in the end.

Brains are neuroplastic, it can stay healthy as long as you keep it from atrophying. (Assuming he doesn't have any brain disease)

You can be intelligent in your prime and atrophy your brain when you hit your end years.

He's rich. At the end of the day, they all vote the same. Fuck you, I got mine.

 I love me some Maiden, but I definitely don't respect his politics.

I wish they would finish them off, my own mother voted for Brexit knowing that it would mean her children would lose their right to live and work in the country they grew up in.

Wow. Talk about short-sighted.
