I mean they might be wrong, and I think they are, but it doesn't mean they dont care about no deal. We're heading into an election where the choice will be Corbyn or No Deal. Anyone still trying to harm his chances is basically pushing us towards No Deal. So who do you think cares? Jo Swinson certain doesn't. Some Lib Dems probably do, but not enough to say anything. I don't really know what the Tory rebels want, except to go back in time and elect someone other than Johnson as their leader. I think they've basically realised it's over at this point.

^^^ I know politicians' twitters are terrible but I feel bad she posted a "who's proud to be antifascist" and all the replies are angry right wingers someone made a jo cox reference like her murderer was antifa or something, because pretending terrorists are radicalised lefties is a thing now jabby posted:The only reason people don't want Corbyn is because they think being caretaker PM would help him win the election. Also with Harriet Harman as PM (even temporarily) it would weaken Corbyn's position as leader - same for any non-LOTO caretaker PM, but especially if it's someone within his own party It's yet another opportunity to have a go at undermining Jeremy - surely this time we can get rid of him! So he absolutely has to stand firm on this, everyone's trying to play political games instead of following the normal procedure, so it really is down to whether they actually care about No Deal or not. There's a lot of noise now, people desperately trying to manipulate the situation in their favour, but they'll have to make a choice in the end - put up and get behind arch-brexiteer and danger to the country Jeremy Corbyn, or take a principled stand and... destroy the country by waving through brexit themselves baka kaba fucked around with this message at 00:14 on Aug 19, 2019 |

https://twitter.com/brendaeastman10/status/1162810768225648642?s=21 I do enjoy it when people massively misjudge a polls audience (Tegan being the canonical example) but more importantly I feel it痴 a very clear sign of quite how fractured the discourse is, and how you can easily be exposed to people in such a way that your opinion is automatically the majority. (Also; you can technically get 155 in snooker as your first break, but it takes a lot of luck.)

I can't really argue because I honestly don't have a loving clue. The poster you were quoting though, i think, was saying that no, its not yet an election with the choice of Corbyn or no deal, like thats the ideal outcome of this bit of foreplay but we arent actually there yet and if it takes sucking up a bunch of poo poo to get there then Corbyn should just do it. Its fear and desperation and stuff speaking but I get that sentiment. I don't think it needs to come to that and said a few days ago in here that the lib dems and others can be blustered (?) into accepting Corbyn when it comes down to it and theyve already softened so... I haven't seen a flowchart for a while so I'm grasping at straws too. NotJustANumber99 fucked around with this message at 00:24 on Aug 19, 2019 |

Ash Crimson posted:Anyone planning on getting alcohol poisoning when brexit inevitably happens? Sorry friend, Strongbow is owned by Heineken and so is a filthy European brand. Bulmers is also Heineken, Magners is Bulmers but Irish, Gaymer is owned by the same Irish parent company. Aspall is Coors, I guess at least that's US rather than EU. Thatcher's is still Somerset based and Weston's is in Herefordshire though, both are family businesses. They also produce by far the superior ciders from that list.

Jamie Burnett did get a 148 in competitive play in 2004, and there was some dispute over whether he should be awarded the prize for a 147 break. In the end it was decided that as he didn't take a black with every red he wouldn't get the prize, since the prize is meant to be for a maximum break and he didn't make the maximum possible break.

What they're actually doing is closing their eyes, crossing their fingers, and wishing as hard as they can that it was 2012 again, and the presence of an actual socialist Labour leader is an impediment to that - this is why the melts (on all sides) probably won't get behind the VONC and Corbyn caretaker leader even when he's offering them all exactly what they've been claiming to want all along.

Yeah, it's a hard decision where they have to come down on one side or the other and they're desperately squirming around trying to find a scenario where they don't have to make the choice. After all the poo poo they've thrown at Corbyn and Labour, it's rather satisfying to watch them sweat.

I don't think I've seen any polls for about a fortnight. The only recent polls I could find on Britain Elects are showing a 3-5 point swing towards CON as BXP seem to be deflating a bit, while Labour also seem to be bleeding voters somewhere as well. No way of telling if it's to LD or elsewhere. Likely a bit of both. If I were being cynical, I would say it's funny how right wing cunts can see exactly which side their bread is buttered wrt who they think can deliver brexit by potentially supporting CON more, whereas all the melts seem to have great difficulty grasping who the only person that can stop it actually is.
