Bryter posted:Not even a unionist and I've still found the indifference and ignorance of English people towards NI to be staggering. God only knows what it's like to be a flag waving prod and spend some time there only to realise that the people you imagined you had some sort of cultural unity with barely register your existence. Ever been to the Isle of Man? It's the most laughably English -- specifically English -- nationalist place in the world. Last time I was there, the taxi driver who'd been sent to meet me off the plane lasted about sixty seconds before telling me that he hated Muslims and "wanted them all killed," despite there not being a Muslim within 100 miles in any direction. You probably shouldn't judge a place by its taxi drivers, but then, in the hotel, I got chatting to a dude who worked for RBS and had been sent because the Douglas branch was losing money and he had to decide whether it was viable to keep it open. He'd decided it wasn't because the locals all refused to use it -- because it had the word 'Scotland' in the name. They seem to be terrified of being forgotten by the English, for some reason, and so overcompensate massively by being hosed up headbangers to an even greater extent than people on the mainland. It's ridiculous. I wonder if the Falklands are the same. And they're all deviants.

Labour are 50/1 here, so I have to do a tactical vote. I feel so dirty. On the plus side, I arranged a vote swap with some milquetoast centrist in Chingford, so he gets to vote IDS onto the street on my behalf.

marktheando posted:I normally think adoption jokes are too cruel, but Gove deserves it, also look at the loving state of him, no wonder his real parents didn't love him. My favourite Gove story will always be the time his horrible wife came home to find him trying to unclog the toilet with the vacuum cleaner.
