In any case I dont have a problem with Starmers stance here, the much worse decision would be insisting on relitigating the brexit decision forever

MikeCrotch posted:The whole "switching to remain sunk Labour" thing is really revisionist, the 2019 locals and euros were really bad for Labour and the continued soft brexit stance was incredibly unpopular There wasn't a good position, but it was made acutely worse by the centre-right inside and out of the party doing two solid years of WHY WON'T YOU STOP BREXIT JEREMY and doing everything it could to pry a wedge between the leave and remain wings of the party. It's worth remembering in the 2017 election the coalition did hold behind a soft brexit position and it was vital that the same could not be allowed to occur again in 2019

Jose posted:Who knew telling everyone you plan to break international laws would have consequences Do British people realize that opinion in the US is generally pro-united Ireland, if a USian knows about the issue at all. I can't see British loving with Good Friday Agreement getting US backing. All the smears about Corbyn being pro-IRA were hilarious to me, because we have GOP politicians in office who are pro-IRA.

I can't see British loving with Good Friday Agreement getting US backing. Americans also generally don't really care about it all that much though. The average American doesn't even know NI exists as a separate entity, and the average American politician sure as hell isn't going to let it get in the way of killing more poors/bombing more brown people. Pelosi will have conveniently forgotten about this the second an actual deal shows up, and even if she doesn't will fold the second any pressure at all is applied by anyone.

is this these people's first time realising that international law is very much a thing rich countries opt in and out of? i guess the issue is we're starting to move from rich country to poor country and those definitely don't get to decide

It is the year 2022, Kent is no-mans land. Warred over by tribal factions of truck drivers for the precious paperwork, without it, they cannot enter into the New United Kingdoms of Anglia and Middlesex. Supreme Leader Mecha-Cummings operates out of his command throne on the border of the rebel controlled Manchester directing his Aryan brotherhood. The eugenics specialists came through for him in the end! Now he will show them all!!

i say swears online posted:the media has told me there are lots of knives in the UK, is that incorrect we've even had an assassin kill an mp with a home-made gun. naturally it was one of the 3 good MPs and the gammon who killed her was fired up by the fascist papers that tried to get them to kill corbyn too the gammon then got everything he ever wanted politically and the whole of british politics is now coloured somewhat by their fear of the gammons and their non-fear of the left, so the lesson here is to get 3.5% public support and oppose the government non-violently.
