Going to preserve this Grauniad typo for posterity: edit: Also von der Leyen is speaking now about how great it is that after a long and arduous process both sides have compromised to find a mutually agreeable deal in the spirit of cooperation and good faith partnership going forward, meanwhile the UK press release is 'In record time we routed the EU and drove them from the field of battle, slitting the throats of their wounded as they begged for mercy! TODAY WE CELEBRATE OUR INDEPENDECE DAY !!!!!' Apraxin fucked around with this message at 16:06 on Dec 24, 2020 |

crispix posted:i wonder about that all caps bloke who says the bin men came through his house to get the bin I can see why the all caps guy feels nostalgic, I remember the old style bins, metal cans but with rubber tops. And the rubber and can itself would waste away. And in some places you had to buy your own bins, so people would keep them until they collapsed or rusted away. Grandmother used to keep one long after they were replaced with the plastic ones we have today.

Lol, the conservatives are never getting voted out. Johnson might even manage a second term off the back of this, if he wants to. Whether the deal is particularly good or not will be immaterial.

Haha! I'm glad that we do have a deal of any sort, but in what possible world (don't answer) Is this 'record time'? Unless they mean 'longest possible time before it all kicks in'.

Is this the first free trade deal in history designed to increase barriers to trade? Also, good thread if you needed reminding about the need for the giant blender. Some of the sneering takes during the “herd immunity” period are wild. https://twitter.com/ClientJournoExp/status/1342102169420505091

Also worth pointing out that Jeremy Corbyn is climbing on an actual bouldering wall whereas Hatt Mancock is on one of the childrens-fun-play-climbing experience walls. It's like the difference between a car and one of those pound-in-the-slot postman pat's van machines you see in supermarkets.

loving hell I've never had such a strong desire to see some heads being used as footballs/put on spikes. Armed and bloody uprising for Christmas, please! In other news: any conversation with my wife that begins "I know you're depressed, but..." is going to a bad place, right? I shouldn't do that. Right? (well you come round and tell her to put her kitkat wrappers in the loving bin then it's right loving there)
