I regret to inform you it's now a Sam Smith's pub. What the IRA couldn't destroy that shitshow of a brewery managed.

Have there ever been any UK politicians who have openly said anything to the effect of "kick the royal family out, take their lands, force them to be private citizens and remove all royal processes from all government"? Outside of like, India I mean, I'm talking specifically in the borders of the UK, more points if they're from England

Absolute bastard, and it’s far from the first time he’s done poo poo like that.

Yeah, if you've noticed too the pubs have 'no phones/laptops/other tech' signs that the staff are strictly instructed to enforce. poo poo place to work. Also the guy's a massive homophobe. I wonder how he managed to fire those guys though, surely that's breaking some kind of employment law.

I hope he either fucks off or dies soon, I quite like Sam Smiths pubs. I'd also prefer to know what he looks like so I can call him a oval office to his face.

ThomasPaine posted:I wonder how he managed to fire those guys though, surely that's breaking some kind of employment law. He can probably get away with it. Firing the staff would be obvious unfair dismissal, but if he's completely shutting down the pub then it's redundancy which is much easier to do. He could get in trouble if the pub reopens in a month or two with new staff though.

Great country where the local lord can come down and completely rearrange people's lives for no reason and then gently caress off back to his castle. Also he can't be bothered to obey the law so he just hands over the equivalent of a year's earnings for a lesser peon.

That's exactly what it is, between that and the other article posted where he described a request from the pensions regulator as "tiresome", this is just old-fashioned "I have power, you do not, and I will exercise that power purely to demonstrate it".

Hey friends. I've been aggressively ignoring all news and current events since the election, so I apologise if I'm asking something that you're all fed up of answering but: is there a good, concise summary of the Brexit deal anywhere I can read to get an idea of what will change and to decide what I should prepare for? (Like, when do I need to start keeping an eye out to avoid the fabled chlorinated chicken?) Are we still getting a transition period before anything substantive happens?

Transition period until the end of the year, after that nobody knows as there's no deal in place yet afaik

Transition period starts at 2300 on the 31st, everything else is still up for grabs at that point.

Toxic Mental posted:Have there ever been any UK politicians who have openly said anything to the effect of "kick the royal family out, take their lands, force them to be private citizens and remove all royal processes from all government"? Anyone ever wonder what the country would look like if the Restoration had never happened? Like, the answer is probably "a hereditary Puritan theocracy" because there is always more and it is always worse but imagine living in the three hundred and seventy one year old Commonwealth of Britain.
