Well, post what I was gonna post before: How likely is the EU to give Britain more than Jan 2021 to negotiate trade deals before it truly becomes the garbage fire it desperately wants to be?

Mostly want to start thread watching once things pop off and avoid the Tory gloating until then.

probably not much longer given how the tories nationalist mentality means they can't actually negotiate at all

EU's stance on Britain: alright you can leave but uh we're not giving you all those huge concessions we made to get you to join the eu

Britain's stance on EU: as a world superpower with the strongest army and the best industry, you would be ruined without us

No, it's racism.

Corbyn's campaign wasn't terrible, and played a lot on real-talk - here's the poo poo that's hosed up right now and here is our manifesto on how to fix it.

BoJo was always 100% a terrible person who has a track record going back decades of being a compulsive liar, a grifter, an opportunist. But he sometimes quotes Greek philosophers and talks in a posh voice, so the English are programmed to see him as their lord and master. He rode into office on a promise to "get Brexit done" and kick all the foreigns out of the country.

also the media framed everything as brexit or not brexit, and unfortunately that was the one issue corbyn wouldn't commit to

or rather having a phd does not qualify you for poo poo outside of that phd

e: or rather having a piece of paper doesn't make you smart through magical society powers, it means someone else thought you were smart or were paid a lot of money to think so

also lol that some people are still buying the anti-semitic narrative even after it was revealed that the blairites made it up and the "unelectable" argument gets trotted out after they actively sabotaged corbyn's entire campaign

corbyn's flaw is that he let those ghouls stick around

I love Keith's complete meltdown over this suggests he wasn't deliberately running the party into the ground and seems to think he was doing Clever Grownup Politics, which is by far the funniest option

Yes lmao incredible. I thought he was a plant deliberately intent on loving wrecking the party but it looks like hes a true believer. Sent in to hoist on his own petard

centrists share a weird delusion that centrism is insanely popular and they're Very Smart People leading the common rabble for their own good. nothing makes a liberal melt down quite like being faced with hard evidence against that

he is absolutely a plant, but has convinced himself he isn't. tale as old as time

Do you guys end daylight savings on the last sunday of october?

because i don't care if they fudge it a little, let the queen formally pass during the phantom hour of october 31st

"sorry chuck, her madge was alive at 1:59 and at 2 AM she had been dead for half an hour, so we cannot specify the time at which the title should have passed to her heir. It's all sorta up in the air. We'll get this sorted out before you pop your clogs for sure *wink*"

Shocked that the family who spent the best part of a year whipping their elderly relative to perform for money until he died on a tropical holiday they conned out of the government have not done the finances properly
