British Tory MPs Hiding Attacks on Joe Biden Now

With the news that Joe Biden would be the next President of the United States, some Conservative MPs continued their attacks on his, seemingly oblivious to the weakened position the UK finds itself in, but some are seeing the political wind changing and have pulled back, with at least one MP at least deleting their social media attacks on the president elect.

In Biden's family's home of Ballina, the town was rife with Biden signs.

I don't know exactly where it was - I think Dublin - where a building suddenly broke out with American flags, but BOY did that do my Irish heart good. Ireland is so dear to me and I hated being on the outs with them.
