BMX Ninja posted:Probably not. I went on a weird deep dive into elite noncery a while back and the consensus among the wingnuts is that Blair had a conviction for soliciting consensual sex with another man in a public convenience, but he never diddled kids. They do think that he was happy to protect and cover up for Peter Mandelson and Gordon Brown, who they think were involved in the Maddie McCann disappearance and the Dunblane massacre, respectively. Involved in the Dunblane massacre how exactly?

I wish. Wales is lost. The welsh are simply not racist enough and we do nothing but passive aggressively say welsh words really loud if we here an English accent. It's 2019 and the English are still wiping out cultures.

Judakel posted:With Scotland leaving in a few years, it is probably for the best. You'll never be able to have a labour majority without them. With the snp dominance scotland is like 4 labour seats max. It doesn’t help but the north of England and most of wales going Tory is the real problem. Unless Wales can stop young welsh people from fleeing to anywhere but Wales the moment they’re able then Wales is done. And somehow I don’t think the Tories taking over most seats are going to help things. Regarde Aduck has issued a correction as of 03:33 on Dec 15, 2019 |

marktheando posted:they did offer May the same deal, but she was stuck with the DUP at the time who wouldn't accept a border in the irish sea It's not really a deal is it. Or rather it is but it's basically just us begging for a transition period rather than for anything beneficial. We give up everything and if we're good we can draw the pain out over 3 years. Like back before it all became stupid the idea was we might be able to stay in the customs union but not have to do X or Y. Somewhere along the way the 'deal' just became 'ok we don't demand anything, we'll just go lol' and the leavers are happy with this. You'd think they would be a little mad that we didn't bully the EU, what with our amazing bargaining position they think we have. But they don't have memories so Boris and co can get away with it. They literally don't remember that time they were saying how British trade was so important we can get whatever deal we want. Regarde Aduck has issued a correction as of 22:20 on Dec 16, 2019 |

hemale in pain posted:jesus christ scotland hosed up so badly voting to stay in the UK lol It was early days. Austerity had only killed a few thousand. Cameron and his cabinet were run of the mill Tories funneling money to their interests while not being ideologically driven about anything. Maybe Labour would get back in power for another ten years and we could pretend itt was the early 2000's again. Now Trump is president, Boris is primeminster and we're leaving the EU. Yeah they hosed up but I don't think anyone predicted the end times of 2016-2020.

Bust Rodd posted:so now that it’s over, was the Anti-Semitism The parties depend on the press to get their messaging out. Labour had a plan for brexit and it was very simple, a referendum on the deal with an option to cancel brexit. The media then pretended that this was overly complex and that Labour had no position. Consider the UK a case study in how private press is never going to work as the owners of said press are rich and one of the parties is about addressing wealth inequality. Unless you get the fabled 'good guy rich person who has got rich in order to collapse the system from inside' then you'll get what happened this time: Every single piece of press media uniting against one party. Yeah the guardian came out on Labour's side, 2 days before the election. A pathetically obvious attempt to save their 'reputation' while doing all they can to sink Corbyn.

'most tolerant country in the world' poo poo is getting a lot of air time lately. I assume it's the new narrative to push. Might just be to gently caress with people's heads because it's not like the gammons want to hear about the UK being tolerant. So who's it for? The slow dawning realisation that we're a dumb rear end nation of cunts who were never good at anything other than murder and pillaging is kinda fun to watch. Why can't we 'DO THING' indeed.

They are not trying to improve the same thing as leftists so the comparison doesn’t work.

gh0stpinballa posted:remember brexit, what happened to that. they covered it wall to wall for 3 years straight because it was the birth of neofascism in the UK, and corbyn kept flip flopping. well apparently it does not exist anymore, it was perhaps a fever dream all along, DMT released from the brain of a dying nation. just forget about it, it got done. It’s going to be lovely and drawn out because that’s the worst possible way. We’ll be able to see the destruction of the nhs two years before it happens. They’ve flip flopped on so much, the other month they said food standards won’t be deregulated but now they’ve said everything is up for possible deregulation again. They said they’d try to mostly match the Eu rules, now they’re saying we’re going to have radically different rules and businesses better get ready. I can only assume trump keeps phoning boris and telling him what to do. So we’re at the mercy of a man who is trying to revert the US to mercantilism. I’m sure we’ll get a good deal. Bong bing Brexit.

BMX Ninja posted:The border was only an issue back when the DUP held the balance of power and May's government needed them on-board to get any legislation passed. The DUP, eternal grifters that they are, held out and demanded more "funding" for NI (more central government money they could funnel into schemes and grants that benefited their rich supporters). It also means NI are the new chosen people of the UK because their food won't soon be full of mercury.
