Vitamin P posted:https://twitter.com/OwenJones84/status/1144324954625851394 My dude wtf. Corbyn's Brexit compromise was a decent plan, but only from a politics point of view. It was always bad policy, because unless you go full Juche the EU will dictate the terms of trade even after you leave. And the politics have turned since the fash and the BBC, but I repeat myself, have managed to redefine Brexit out of the range of the lowish damage Corbyn compromise.

Wha? Farage already campaigned the first time around by just printing out Nazi posters. Don't you remember the "Breaking point"? And if I had to find a turning point as to when the general definition of Brexit turned to No Deal I'd definitely go with May's election on the plan to crush Labour by going full fash and eating UKIP-

What would the EU caving even look like?

One minor thing I wondered: Does the role of Leader of the Opposition connect in any way with the fair reporting rules before an election? Suppose Corbyn and the Melts crown some 80 year old with advanced dementia to be PM button presser: Pfeffel would be LOTO. Could the BBC then get away with giving all Labour air time to the interim PM?

Corbyn could plausible claim a break with the old guard since they camped out in the Guardian offices and told everyone who would listen that he was an anti-semitic judeo-bolshevik.

gschmidl posted:I can tell you that Austria would be even more of an idiot backwards country if the EU had not forced literally every positive thing on us through regulations (with politicians having a scapegoat in the EU, they "had to" implement those measures, not their fault! please vote for us again!). Eh. EU rail policy is pretty dumb and wasteful, and I've never seen a place as desperate to sell you garbage as the (not so) new privatized Austrian post offices. The telecom regulations seem to have worked out at least. Edit: Frankly, the best thing about Austria was that the two long term government parties hated each others guts to the extent that no one could do a Thatcher. genericnick has issued a correction as of 07:59 on Sep 24, 2019 |
