Does anyone have that Jo Swinson voting Tory picture where she outranks Jeremy hunt? I need it for my "Jo Swinson is a Tory so shut up Liberal" meme collection.

Posting early in the thread to predict that Brexit won’t happen on the 31st because hellworld has changed targets.


I’m going to read “tomorrow” here as “the 2nd of October”, and then I’m going to use my editorial powers to ensure that the 2nd of October doesn’t end until the House of Podliament ceases to sit by using the Lords time machine.

So, what I’m saying is, happy birthday, but with technicalities. :colbert:




Thanks!

Young me worked with a Londoner years ago and I had no grasp of British politics.

The way he spoke of North and South Ireland the impression I got was that the country was split down the middle Korea style with the south being where all the fundie terrorist were while the North was the place where the peaceful Irish lived under the protection of England.


Turns out Northern Ireland is more like Northern cape Ireland.

I'm wary of 'attacking George Soros = antisemitism'. I mean, George Soros is a billionaire who has made his money in a variety of damaging ways, including betting against the Pound, and now uses that money to influence the politics of countries around the world. We don't like it when the Koch brothers or the Murdochs do it, and just because his politics are liberal doesn't mean we should be happy when he does it.

In a vacuum it's not antisemitism but people who bring up Soros tend to be antisemites in 12/10 cases.

!!!THIS IS NOT A DRILL!!!

I will be within spitting distance of the Queen tomorrow as she is visiting the council housing my parents live at and I'm visiting. It seems a waste to be within spitting distance of the queen and not spit on the queen, but it also might upset a bunch of old nurses and firefighters

This is like the trolley problem. By spitting on the queen you save Boris from the tower but by spitting you topple the monarchy.

No idea what monster munch is but I once had a cadbury creme egg that I bought online just to try it.

What I expected was a kinder egg filled with egg liqueur.

What i got was a chocolate olive that contained some thick mixture of sugar and water.

Ah so they are going with the "known rivalry" between Lenin and Trotsky https://twitter.com/tnewtondunn/status/1183753448459833345

yes

everyone thinks about Trotsky's rivalry with Lenin

Lenin is the rival we think of

Maybe Boris is just super well read and noted how Trotsky was falling out of favor with Lenin at the later parts of Lenins life while Stalin met with Lenin constantly and delivered his directives to the Politburo.

It's weird really. Young me was like "If I had tons of money I would buy this, and this, and my best friend would get this, and my mom would get this" And adult me is pretty much along the same lines.

Actual rich people meanwhile are more like "Today I think I'll fly over to the child sex slave island while I ponder how to kill off all the poor people"

I have a drinking game where I read Corbyns twitter and do shots every time a Tory responds with "Magic money tree"

2 shots whenever a centrist shows up and suggests Corbyn should resign and appoint an electable successor. You see these electable future PMs can't get elected to Labour leader in a leadership election because they are so super electable that they need Corbyn to appoint them.

I am dead. My blood is 130% alcohol. My blood alcohol has blood alcohol.

So these people pretending to be labour voters on twitter who think labour is just one leadership change away from a majority victory in a GE. Who is this magic PM candidate?

I've heard Jess Phillips thrown out there and she even said she would take the job but didn't try for it during the last 2 leadership elections?

You know. Earlier this year it looked like Therese May was balancing on the knives edge to avoid a no-deal Brexit. But Boris has been ploughing head first towards no deal and it's like the world contorts its way around him to make him hit a brick wall. The system itself will get itself an extension.

Makes me wonder if May ever had the power to cause or avoid no deal in the first place.
