If Pissflaps has his forecasted strong showing and labour scrape together enough seats, what's the likelihood of a Pissflaps/Labour coalition?

He's right, there has been climate change for billions of years. Sudden rapid climate change, often microbial in cause, tended to precede mass extinction events. Regional and continental climate change over the past millennia is responsible for the fall of many of the world's great civilizations.

It's almost as if it's something we should be concerned about.

XKCD illustrated the issue pretty effectively here - relative to previous changes (since 20,000BC, at least), right now the earth's average temperature is changing really fast.

Theresa May is currently sitting under a waterfall, focusing all her ki towards brexit, and you're all going to look like assholes when she reappears.

Seeing Corbyn bring them up on stage today made me realise Labour should be pushing Keir Starmer/Emily Thornberry/Barry Gardiner as their Brexit negotiation team as opposed to BoJo/David Davis/Liam Fox. One of those teams definitely are a lot more presentable and strong/stable and it's not the Tory team.

Jesus Farron is not doing well here. He seems to just be waiting for Neil to start talking so he can speak over him with another inane comment.

Unless they've changed the law recently, there's no legal drinking age in the UK as long as it's with parental consent. You just can't buy until 18, which is why the young are pointless - they can't get a round in.

If even 10% of this stuff is true, what were our intelligence services doing? Can anyone just engineer votes now as long as you have the cash? With all the wiretapping and other dodgy poo poo GCHQ does why did it take this long for someone to go "Hmmm Farage eh, really wants us out of the EU and Russia loves him. Do you think, bare with me, there is a conflict on interest here?".

Neil was loving brutal and Farron was pathetic. The #LibDemFightback was hilariously Hindenberg.

Neil's last question was literally just "why has your campaign gone so badly?" but Farron kept talking over him so he kept asking the question while Farron tried to be louder and then Neil just goes "you're trying to be a populist but you're not actually popular, that's why your campaign is doing so badly"

Cheers guy! I'll have to run the options by Team Awful so if anyone else wants a go feel free the icon is called pigfuckin.gif if you need inspiration

I guess I should say the icons need to be 90x90 (making them 2x or 4x and shrinking them down is always a good plan) with square corners, and in PNG format. The others are all here

Penny Mourdant and Flick Drummond are not the most popular MPs, and the current policy of not being seen at all isn't doing either of them many favours. The majority here last time was slim in Portsmouth South @ 5000 or so, but was complicated by the overall swing to the Tories, the Lib Dems, and Mike Jackson loving a Russian spy on the navy base making 2015s result a little anamolous. Southsea is very much a hippy town and despite the money, I could see it being a Labour gain.

It'd take a much bigger swing to oust Mourdant at about 6 points but the Scottish navy bases bribe still sticks in people's craw and Paulsgrove being abandoned won't help, especially if there's an increased youth turnout.

Fareham would vote for a scarecrow in a blue rosette, and the further north you go towards Petersfield (East Hampshire) from here the worse it gets.

If we're talking about local races now I think Southampton Itchen stands a decent chance of being a Labour gain--I wish the local party were focusing on it a little more (they're focused on keeping Southampton Test), but realistically that won't make a big difference in the end. I think because of the UKIP vote it'll prove harder to win than other marginals, if Labour win Itchen they'll likely be a long way towards forming a government.
