every now and then one of us may find ourselves with some lingering hope of coming up with a line or two that will, if not stop the smugposting entirely, at least convince pissflaps to maybe find a way to engage with the thread that doesn't make it painful to read on a regular basis when finding yourself in such a mood, do your best to catch yourself, count to 10, and remind yourself of the true nature of The H-Word.

Skinty McEdger posted:It's pretty cool that in their attempts to pass off the reports about the dinner with Juncker as just Brussels gossip they've managed to confirm pretty much all of the details of it, from the expectation to get citizens status done by June through to the whole "lets make Brexit a success" line. These stories are completely false, and also it shows how negotiations will be difficult despite how the difficult negotiations did not in fact happen due to being false. Strong and stable.

No bombs for our Army. Not a single bomb. No guns, either, as these are just tiny bombs. Nothing powered by fire. No electricity, which is just a form of tiny fire. This is what Jeremy dreams of, as he sleeps, surrounded by vegetables. This is Corbyn's Britain.

forkboy84 posted:The problem is, as someone voted Green on the regional ballot last year (helping John Finnie return to Holyrood which was good), actually taking a shot at the Scottish Green Party in the attempt to win over their voters is a really stupid way to go about it. And that's what this is. It's dumb, it's tone deaf and ultimately counter-productive. it's the standard Scottish labour strategy of 1) Insult others 2) i dunno, maybe offer something of our own, maybe if there's time (don't work too hard on this one) 3) see 1) which has been proven to work 100% fantastic for years. oh hey it's also the strategy of the labour anti-corbyn crowd, guess these guys are sharing notes
