TinTower posted:Personally, I want Corbyn to suspend the whip from the Labour Leave MPs. Hoey's my MP and she's always all over the place in ways that make no sense. Pro-Leave when she represents the most solidly Remain area in the country outside of the City of London and Gibraltar but also saying she'll oppose a motion of no confidence in Corbyn. He would be removing the whip from one of the only MPs that has said they'll support his leadership. It's just a constant crap shoot.

Extreme0 posted:It would be interesting to see if SNP Members went to Lib Dems after indepedence or at the very least, See the SNP starting to fall apart. There'll be a motion going to Brighton Conference regarding the EU. Me and my local party will almost certainly be submitting an amendment that the party should be supporting Schengen (which we tried to get in at Bournemouth last year but it didn't win the emergency motion ballot). Calderdale has a reputation for being… incredibly awkward to the party leadership when it comes to Conference. Hilariously, though, we do have good direct relations with Tim.

Hey I just remembered Cameron formally apologised to Turing. So I guess he did a kinda good thing once in his career (obviously too little too late in the grand scheme of things, but it couldn't be called a bad thing to do at least.)

I am quite glad the scottish lib dems are on side with EU discussions, the SNP are usually at their best when they work with other parties. And I view it as a Good Thing to completely exhaust all other options before resorting to starting up the indyref circus again.

Was going to say a Tory pigfucker was obviously going to be in favour of gay marriage as they cannot tell the difference between homosexuality and necro-beastiality.

Being fair only because of a petition and in fact he only specifically apologised for Turing and none of the other victims of the government's homophobia.

There was a long period when anything even vaguely offensive would get a probation or ban in GBS, & so a lot of people complained about not being able to do jokes on a comedy forum, & the moderation got a lot more lax. Mixed in with those people were quite a lot of actual genuine racists.

It's fascinating to me when I end up in a forum I don't usually frequent and it's like stepping onto an alien world. Posters I've never seen before, topics beyond my comprehension, in-jokes (memes) that sail over my head.

Yeah, GBS a few years ago was very different, there was a lot of semi-serious discussions of news articles and poo poo and it was quite straight-laced, its gone through a big transformation.

Possible scenarios, none of which are that likely by themselves: Tories fall on their sword, don't do it, eat the loss at the next GE. Tories put it off until after the GE, a party running on a promise to not do it wins. Some element of it needs to be voted on in parliament and it gets defeated. Military coup? Queen steps in? Meteor?

CORBYN WHAT THE gently caress HAVE YOU DONE I get that Benn's Syria Stance was an unfortunately visible moment of personal opinion (and superior Commons Rhetoric), but Corbyn's toast anyway after his weirdo 1970's policy of No Platform with anyone right of Marx or christ knows what - leading to some Labour voters literally voting the wrong way because they were confused as to the party policy. But gently caress! Benn might have been, if not the leader, someone compelling to be in a senior position that might have appealed to a general population desperate for an opposition who would somehow be strong enough to come in and fix this entire loving mess. I genuinely thought Corbyn was someone who would put his personal power aside for the greater good. Clearly being party leader has gone to his head. As if he's going to be anything but a footnote in this section of British politics.

Am I reading this right, that they're gonna try and make Scotland jump through hoops to get membership? Like having to reapply isn't news, but a lot of people have been talking about a fast-track because Scotland is already a member (at least by proxy,) and has very clearly expressed intent to stay in the union. Is there really any reason except blind malice for the EU to make the process painful for them?

Saint Isaias Boner posted:yeah they were making all that poo poo up. Fast track in EU terms is years Meh, technically Scotland is already EU bound as part of the UK, I suspect the EU would find a way to accommodate them if they successfully voted for independence. If anything, to spit in the face of the UK as they part ways.
