Renfield posted:This came up a few years ago when everyone was recommending stuff to stay warm. Then as now, no one has mentioned slippers. Go the Billy Connolly route. Buy two giant slippers that you can fit both your feet into at once. You stay warm, and when the marauding gangs see your giant slippers they will think you are some Master Blaster sized super mutant and leave you alone.

WhatEvil posted:I mean the UN were already predicting 1 billion climate migrants by 2050. Sounds pretty apocalyptic to me. There's a novel called The Wall which is about exactly this situation. It's really rather depressing but probably far more optimistic than what will really happen.

I reckon half the cabinet are big fans of The Camp of the Saints. Or maybe that's too French for them.

fuctifino posted:Ah, you missed the important part of that idea - and that was to moor the cruise liner in international waters because.... reasons.... As with half the ideas I have, "do whatever unpleasant thing but do it in the Home Counties". This one goes well with my idea to build a massive channel from the coast & naval base in Surrey, primarily to keep the SSBNs. Can put the refugee cruise liners there too. Also any and all future nuclear power stations, because they like to have them on the coast. Of course nothing like this would ever be allowed to happen in the most Tory county but a boy can dream of spite. Hmmmm, strong wind tonight, the light has already started flickering. Hope it doesn't go out for a couple of hours.

Re: warm clothing for the coming apocalypse. I bought one of these a short while back at Primark on a whim because it looked so ludicrous (ignore the ebay flipping price. I couldn't find it on their site. It was £16). Holy poo poo is it warm. I can put it on in my leaky flat and be warmed up in minutes without any heating on. If you don't fancy burgers they have loads of other daft designs! Unrelated: can the "bad thread" (this one), the "Shrek cock" thread and the "jose posts tweets plus a lol" thread all get along? UK posters have to huddle together to stay warm! On the NHS: I've been in and out of hospital recently and absolutely everyone who has been dealing with me has been a total saint. gently caress the "government" forever for trying to sink it.

I had a vague memory of a GBS one but wasn't sure. I don't read any of them except this one because I don't think I can separate being irritable about politics from normal posting and also I don't have weird ideas about the war in ukraine.

Starmer for all the usual reasons, Streeting has his private healthcare donor connections, Rosie Duffield is a terf, etc, but the rest of the Labour Right is just an amorphous mass of shite. It'd be useful to be able to go "oh, that's the one who wants to privatise the DVLA/send migrants to a processing centre on Rockall/criminalise smiling/hang all trans people".
