tbf, this would work if even just 10% of the country went and did it because what are the cops gonna do, they can't jail literally millions of people (yet).

XR doesn't have nearly that many people behind them yet tho, i think they're getting a bit ahead of themselves lmao

what if only 5% did it, but to both hands

Brexit really is like watching Dragonball Z back when I was 12, breathless excitement mixed in with absolute constant blue balls.

Will Britain transform into a garbage dump this episode??? No, goddamnit, they spent the whole episode yelling progressively louder while glowing. Maybe next time???

*misses episode*
Wait what happened to Bercow?

quote:

Northern Ireland remains in the United Kingdom's customs territory but all EU procedures will apply to goods arriving there in this complex system. There will be no customs checks on the island of Ireland - they will be done in ports.

The Northern Irish assembly will have to give consent after Brexit for the region's continued alignment with the EU regulatory regime.

Four years after Brexit, the assembly will have to decide by simple majority of those taking part in the vote whether to apply it. If the vote is positive, the system is extended for another four years.

If another vote then is positive with cross-community support, the system is extended by another eight years until another vote.

If consent is not granted, there is a two-year cooling off period during which sides need to find a new solution to prevent the return of a hard border on the island of Ireland.

So it's pretty much infinite Brexit

Mays deal but put forward by an even more unpopular pm

What happened to bojo being required to ask for an extension? Was it stupidly written enough that he can just not if he pretends to get a deal?

Lol the cops would just set up new courts to speed people through super fast and then schedule people to go to prison for staggered sentences.

The cops would just put everyone on license and take their property from them.

XR is a police trap for well meaning people. This is why they their "leaderless movement" organises campaigns to get its membership arrested, and disrupts public transport.
