Même contexte que dans ma question précédente:
Another Tory MP, Stewart Jackson, called Rolnik a "loopy Brazilian leftie with no evidence masquerading as a serious UN official". Sections of the media dubbed Rolnik a "Brazil nut", who once dabbled in voodoo, offering animal sacrifices to Karl Marx. There were other suggestions that Rolnik might want to sort out Brazil before she came meddling in British housing – ahem, kind of missing the point of the UN there, folks!
"hum, vous...... , les amis!"?
Comment rendre le ton ici?

Tony M
: Does 'sortir du contexte de...' quite convey the same idea as 'missing the point of...'? It sounds a bit odd to me... (N'avoir pas compris... ???) / I believe it means "In case you hadn't realized, that's actually what the UN is there for"
