Tory leadership contest is down to two, Jeremy Hunt and Boris Johnson, which now goes to their membership maybe unless something happens. Also their membership are all terrible and are either the galvanized corpses of the rich dead or UKIP entryists.

Also after discussing it with CB and amongst ourselves, weve decided we wont punish people just for mentioning pissflaps anymore as long as it doesnt cause an extended derail. What constitutes an extended derail is up to interpretation.

Diet Crack posted:"Business groups have expressed anger after Jeremy Hunt said he would willingly tell people whose companies went bust after a no-deal Brexit that their sacrifice had been necessary." It's dark humourous that the Tories are devouring their own base. As for the latter part, complete loving apathy/sociopathy, while treating it like a game, because if it fucks up, they'll just shrug and move on, falling upwards.

It came up in the dying embers of last month's thread but I think that Liam may not be the worst of the Gallagher brothers, and basically every interview and scrap I've read post Oasis break-up leads me to the conclusion that Noel is probably the biggest impediment to a reunion, and not Liam

Pesky Splinter posted:It's dark humourous that the Tories are devouring their own base. The Tory base is getting devoured because the Tories have devoured everything else but can't stop. It's interesting that the endgame of capitalism and neoliberalism is the same as the endgame of fascism. It doesn't matter whether you want all the money or all the power; eventually even if your organisation does have it all each individual will be seeking to get it at the cost of all the others. Can we get a repeat of details on the planned ScotPol meet for the new thread?

I'm pretty sure there was also a chuck tingle novel along the lines of "pounded in the butt by the falling value of the pound" referring to the post referendum uncertainty.

While it's true that boris johnson makes vehicles out of boxes, this doodle was drawn before all that. It's a bunch of buses saying "sorry" running over a recently fired trans activist. My take on that old story.

Yep:  And a sequel:  And as a bonus:  Unrelated to Chuck Tingle (but will still leave a tingle) is also the legendary  , and the gay-themed  ,  , and  .The silver lining to the Brexit cloud is that when Britain inevitably sinks back into the waves and reclaimed by Poseidon, at least someone, somewhere will make a porno about it.

Unfortunately for him, nothing he actually says will disguise the fact that he's still a loving moron It's vaguely astonishing to think that all any country would have to do to get a deal passed by the UK is just bring an attractive sex worker as part of the trade delegation and sit her in a room with Boris during discussions. It worked for the Chinese, after all.
