from the logic of a bankbencher i can see how a weak PM would be pretty good for the time being, with plenty of leverage for a potential VONC available

The only thing I can really see anyone making a concrete demand for is to bin the NI protocol but government might just do that anyway so

projecthalaxy posted:Doesn't Boris get to decide when or if there are national elections lol in a way yes, he could call a general election at any time but there's also a 5 year hard stop for each parliament at which point there would have to be an election they repealed the fixed term parliament act this year which formalised an election date every 5 year and removed the prime minster ability to advise the queen to exercise royal prerogative to call one sooner. but since it's been repealed he could in theory call one whenever he wanted now, as long as it's within the 5 year limit of the last one

Thornbridge is owned by the people who run A4e (action for employment) the bastards they sent me too when I was on Jobseekers. Hence widely referred to as Torybridge. But then, mixing politics with your beers means like Beavertown, Hawkshead, Mikkeller, Thornbridge and obviously Brewdog are cancelled - with many many others besides.

I'd always thought this was a Sunday Sport mockup or something, but it's a real feature-length film. I skimmed through a few bits of it online and for the most part the actors are pretty in character and do decent impersonations, especially Nicola Sturgeon, Diane Abbot and Theresa May. The guy playing Jeremy Corbyn is probably the weakest part.

gently caress all these modern IPA over hopped, tiny can beers. Give me a Fürstenberg any day over that hipster piss. Or a Schofferhofer with a slice of lemon if I'm feeling fancy.
