I read the last five pages and I'm very sad I have only been following brexit intermittently. Now that TRUMP is about to leave, BREXIT may replace that fading lodestar. God save the Queen.

what the gently caress is wrong with your country

i do think the left in the UK should just shut the gently caress up about israel.
its like the most obvious trap every time and nobody else in the whole country has any idea what we're on about.

in 20 years time we're gonna have another shot at a left wing government and like corbyn one of the first things they're gonna do is go off on one about israel (anyone else remember his weird speech during the hustings saying israel would "rue the day" they had decided to be so awful?)
and that time i'm just gonna sigh and wait for defeat

i'll just say what i said when someone suggested the same thing about immigration discourse in us politics being too difficult:

people have said this through out history about :
-trans rights
-gay marriage
-women's suffrage
-racial equality
-segregation
-slavery
-etc

I got an email from Amazon telling me that one of my favourite whiskeys (Bushmills' Black Bush) was on offer.

But due to Brexit Amazon is no longer able to ship Northern Irish spirits to Northern Ireland,. They have to go through export declarations to ship to Amazon's distribution centre in GB, them go through further export declarations to ship it back from GB to Northern Ireland's EU customs zone.

The government is still sticking to their hardline propaganda that there is no internal Tory sea border between Britain and NI.

that is incredible. thank you for this story

They reduced the amount of sugar in it after the government introduced an increased tax rate for high-sugar soft drinks. It now has that unpleasant artificial sweetener aftertaste.

how's that renewed relationship with the US working out?


quote:

Ministers announced they will slash driving test rules in a bid to tackle the lorry driver shortage.

Wannabe truckers will only need to take one test for a rigid and articulated lorry, instead of two tests three weeks apart.

Tests will also be made shorter by removing 'reversing' and 'uncoupling and recoupling' exercises, and car drivers will be allowed to tow a trailer or caravan without taking a new test.

enticing more workers by.... reducing safety standards. gently caress lol
