It's weird how right wing comedy always seems like a terrible facsimile of normal comedy built around hate that people only laugh at if they also hate the target. Good satire punches down, as they say. Braggart fucked around with this message at 20:21 on Oct 29, 2019 |

Forget arguments about it being more representative of a country's politics, or changing the nature of governments, when you're plotting out how a constituency's eliminated candidate's transfers might go late into day 2 of the count you'll be in a coma to all but political finagling.

Fumble posted:Whats so important between the 9th and the 12th as to when the election is held? It looks like they are just wasting time now. I'm not totally sure but I think it's something to do with the resulting date for parliament to be dissolved, where the 12th gives Boris a window somewhere to have another go at pushing his deal through, whereas the 9th doesn't give him enough time to do anything.
