if brexit fails then the eu superstate will coalesce and become a gigantic hivemind botnet that will become the artificial intelligence that will retroactively punish all who tried to stop it. dominic has done a good thing by ruining brexit's chances, his computer brain copy is going to get a nice virtual gently caress mansion

Noxville posted:Bear in mind this is mostly from polls before Johnson spent a week revealing how comically incompetent he actually is as Prime Minister. I remember that brief period where people hadn't realised what a poo poo Theresa May was and she was hailed as the most popular prime minister in decades or whatever would be nice if the upcoming election turns out the same way hers did. would say i hope for it, depending on what the current thread consensus is on hope being a lie or not currently. it seems to swing back and forth with the tides

Blasmeister posted:it was boris' masterplan to stop parliament passing any no-deal preventing legislation by removing as much time between now and brexit as possible. It worked perfectly of course it would work, specific deadlines in the very near future are a well known famous tactic for discouraging people from getting serious about working towards their goals

Pesky Splinter posted:It's missing that very, very, big step of David Cameron, high off the scent of his own farts from the result of the Scottish referendum, started the Brexit ball rolling, entirely independent of Corbyn's ascent to the Labour leadership, in an attempt to resolve a longstanding Tory party issue. This is a very fun thing to think about, given the scottish indyref a) ended up much closer than the polling indicated at the start and b) absolutely did not kill the support for independence and its presence as an issue in Scottish politics, and mainly strengthened it There could be a number of reasons for this, e.g. the inherent appeal of change vs. the boring politicians you love to hate telling you everything is fine, actually, or the abysmal quality of the No campaign due to nobody believing they actually had to take it seriously until the last minute, etc etc, but I'm really not sure anyone learned from any of them come the brexit vote

An army of little Boris Johnsons running about, waiting to reach maturity before they group together and Take Back Control luckily they're going to be as good at it as he is so it'll mostly just be entertaining. I hope they do the thing where one of them has a ladder and bashes the other one on the head when he turns around

VideoGames posted:I have just realised that they wrote 3-way lead. I assume the writer believes that anyone standing on a podium is level in terms of placement with that kind of spin. From a brief skim of the article, the poll has a +/- 5.7% margin of error, so 20/20/19 is statistically a three-way tie as far as the poll can tell.
