Customs zones at an equitable 5 & 10 miles back from the border


Pros: Much easier to draw the border
Cons: Cant think of any so far

Anything northwest of Lough Foyle is defacto in the customs zone or else shall be known as the exclave of North-Ireland.

And the argument I am making is that when, not if, Corbyn steps down, we should replace him with someone broadly similar. He has done his job; it has worked, more of the same please.

The replacement does no really need to be better, to lack some defect he has. We shouldn’t say ‘walking boots have failed, it is time for Crocs’ They just need to not have had their welcome with the public worn out.

In the boot analogy you never mentioned the existence of loads of old cobblers WHICH is ironic given...

To be fair a week long prorogation is normal and legal, this time round. It takes about that long normally.

And given conference recess would have been in play anyway, it's absolute galaxy brain that they went for an unlawful extended prorogue for the sake of about 5 days in the first place.

This'll be the third PMQs under him IIRC, but yeah, he's only done one, and had Raab step in for the other.

Even May would drag herself up to satisfy her weekly humiliation kink.

Theory: the PM primarily sees himself as a public speaker/raconteur but over the years he's got lazy with it. Recycling material wasn't an issue while on the conference circuit but he can't face the same audience week-in-week-out and deliver fresh content.

Prorogation was mostly a stall to come up with something to replace his Caracas/Crackers bit.

I've been in the newsagents while the mum is yelling at the couple for calling the police on her kids - so she knows what's going on and what they're doing.

But going to the local press isn't a bad idea. The angle that a local business is being racially targeted and the police are doing next to nothing about it sounds like a story to me. I'd be pissed off if I was running a shop in the area and felt that the same thing could happen to me.

Do the kids' school know? Often they have resources / access to resources to help* with issues occurring offsite.

*interpret however you choose.

Once the extension's been granted, Corbyn calls for VONC. In what the papers retcon as an act of strategic genius, Johnson airily says that it's not appropriate to dither and delay with an election now that the withdrawal bill is moving forward. Cons whip abstain - VONC fails. Britain is swallowed by the sea.

It's the "election now" bills that need 2/3 of MPs. A VONC only needs a majority so if the tories abstain then it passes.

Oh yeah that's silly of me. I stand by the 'an election will be declared Labour's waste of time' and the sinking into the sea bits.

This is largely off topic but thanks to whoever recommended the ATR2100 mic when you all were starting up the podcasting. I'm recording some stuff for work and having 0 sound issues even while a building across the street is being demolished.

I read this as "Atari 2600 mic" and got confused as to why there was one supplied in the era before online gaming, and even more confused as to how the mic quality could possibly have been that good for a game system accessory. Maybe I should have had an earlier night yesterday?

Maybe you're thinking of the surprisingly high-quality for its era ZX82 mic - the one people had to beep and whistle into to program Spectrum cassettes?

Are you using via USB, or Analogue and a seperate interface?

I've been looking to upgrade from a portable recorder for a while.

Cheers

Lol, I'm using the usb input, bog-standard soundcard and recording through powerpoint. Compared to others here who record their material with laptop / webcam mics, itsounds pretty nice.

So if you're at an extremely base-level set-up, I'd recommend but I have no idea whether it's actually any good

Genuinely a little surprised the Tories have been caught so fully flatfooted by this election. I sure as hell didn't expect any good policies (Except promises of Big Spendy for the NHS that nobody would actually believe) but I did expect them to have... policies. They're not even out there touting they can get Boris's excellent very good wonderful withdrawal bill through if the Tories get a majority.

Also lmao that Trump sticks his oar in to say it's a lovely deal when the Brexiteers want him to be King, and also having a go at Corbz when that suits him just fine because what better endorsement?

At least with Theresa May's spontaneous decision to have an election the tories had an excuse for being unprepared.
