god uk politics is always such bullshit

loving WORLD IS IN SLOW COLLAPSE and it’s nothing but poo poo like, “Mr Jeremy Rumple said something mean or wrong we demand clarity and apology”

Talking about the mess we're in and who's responsible for it is uncomfortable: much easier just to do tone policing instead.

To be fair it is probably one of the most objectively true things a Tory Home Secretary has said.

I read a book about England declaring war on Iceland for their cod. In the 1950s.

Aye, my Dad was involved in "The Cod Wars" but I dunno when that was exactly. I know he served on the HMS Plymouth but I think that was from 64-66 and she only went to Iceland in the 80s, in which my Dad was no longer a seaman. It's a mystery

Plymouth did a bunch of bullshit parades as well so he might have been reassigned during the Cod Wars to do more important stuff.

Either that or he was just saying he was just serving during the Cold War and you misheard him on purpose.

Visiting family and my dad watched QT last night and told me the best way to solve illegal immigration is to infiltrate the gangs and buy up all the boats for Channel crossings. This will be cheaper and more effective than the hotel hosting, I am told.

Buy up all the boats, park them in the middle of the Channel, let the refugees stay there in a sprawling haphazard city on the sea

Still trying to train their Colliedor to rip throats out. Slowly getting there. Not watched QT in couple years. Good to see the formula is still excellent at angering the blood.

I did make an off hand comment about the RN being puddle pirates now, and that prompted ‘50s era Home Guard patrol talk, but in the Channel.

As Flying_rodent on Twitter put it: it's no coincidence that both main parties are now led by odd little men that nobody really likes, or voted for; the Establishment's gone to considerable trouble to put them in their positions.

To be fair, that was a rollercoaster of a premiership , she got regicide and an economy crash during her stint and it was all in the space of a single season.
