  • Let's move on now to Mexico, the only place you can get a truly authentic

  • Volcano Quesarito.

  • Mexico's president Enrique Peña Nieto has been struggling in the polls recently.

  • Poverty remains deep-rooted, and massacres involving security forces and corruption scandals

  • have made Peña Nieto the most unpopular president in twenty years.

  • Wow, Mexican, Mexico's most unpopular president, that's actually impressive,

  • because until recently the most unpopular president in Mexico was still American president

  • James K. Polk, also know in Mexico as "that guy who took

  • Texas from us".

  • Mexicans are justifiably upset at the moment, which is why a video Peña Nieto government

  • placed on their YouTube page on Monday, was such a bad idea.

  • ...in a vignette set in working class Mexico, a carpenter tells off a workmate moaning about

  • the government's controversial reforms. And ends his lecture with what the PR department

  • must have thought was a killer line. "Asi es que ya chole con tus quejas"

  • Enough already with your complaining, he says in slang.

  • Enough of your complaining, have to say you get used hear in politicians

  • say "we heard your voice" but they don't usually follow that up with

  • "and it's annoying, so shut the fuck up!"

  • Unsurprisingly the Mexican public was not impressed.

  • "¿Cómo no te vas a quejar si hay tanta cosa mala en el pais?"

  • How we not going to complain when there is so much wrong with the country?

  • If they solved the problems we wouldn't be complaining.

  • Twitters jumped on the thing with a long list of complaints they do have in a country where

  • corruption and impunity dominate. Within hours the video was gone.

  • Yeah, yeah, gone from the YouTube page but not gone from the Internet.

  • You think people would know by now you can't delete anything from the Internet.

  • The only way to guarantee no one will see something on line is to put it in newsweek.com,

  • that is the only way to guarantee it.

  • And while the video may've been taken down, the hashtag it inspired #YaChole,

  • Spanish for enough, is going strong with people twitting things like

  • "Enough with the excessive political theft, forced disappearances and corruption"

  • and "Enough with your corrupt and mediocre cabinet Peña Nieto"

  • and my absolute favorite, a GIF that says enough with you and then just a exploding

  • poop emoji.

  • And that is perfect, because when the government decides to tell its citizen to stop complaining

  • they should know that shit is eventually going to blow up in your face.

  • And finally this week...

Let's move on now to Mexico, the only place you can get a truly authentic
