i wonder how long the uk will be able to hold on to all the priceless cultural artifacts they looted from across the world? in the short term they aren't going anywhere, but after another decade or two of steep and unchecked decline?

Over the next few years they will be sold back to their originating countries in exchange for food aid shipments. Or citizenship for the ruling class as they escape the sinking ship.

There are regularly scandals involving au pairs being used as slave labor around these parts, being kept prisoner, and even sexually abused. A lot of the time the au pairs are young women from east asian and eastern european nations, and fat white gammons love it. Au pairing may have at one point been a good thing but nowadays it's almost always about gross exploitation of the vulnerable.

Starmer will never be PM for the simple reason that every time he's on tv, he looks massively uncomfortable and like he's apologising for something. The average disengaged British voter can smell weakness on a politician a mile off and Starmer loving radiates it lol.

No they can't.

My favourite variation on this is "the EU is exploiting Brexit to put the interests of its members ahead of Britain".

You mean the thing a loving union is explicitly established for?

These muppets seem to think trade deals are something that are settled in an afternoon, over brandy with a gentleman's agreement and a firm handshake, and not bitter years-long negotiations where both parties try to screw each other over the tiniest pettiest details. The UK is now a trade rival to the EU. It's absolutely its duty to exploit Brexit in each and every area that benefits its member states.

It's funny to me that these people who love capitalism so much, have enthusiastically created a new way for capitalism to destroy them.

Afaik the UK has to let the Scots leave, which would be a stupid thing for them to do.
Essentially the entire British establishment is anti SNP
So I think they just won't allow it.

Otoh other comedy options are the Scots vote the same way again. Narrow remain victory.

Or the Scots do leave and realise theyr a country of like 14 people whose main industry is lack of infrastructure.
I like it here but an eyebrow raising number of Scots act like Scotland and England are similarly sized and developed, when Scotland is 10x smaller and half of it has literally a single road

Counterpoint: england fuckin sucks balls

I've had issues before where my UK debit card transformed into a credit card in some EU counties or something???

This happened to me when I worked at Disney. Our pay was deposited into my account at the Disney-owned bank, and I had a debit card that turned into a credit card upon return to Norway. I withdrew about $2,700 before someone on the other end figured out something was wrong. Good times.

i wouldn't be surprised if diana was murdered, because that's just how disjunctive secessions over bloodlines get handled in systems like that.

i don't know if "the queen did it," rather it's one of those things like the JFK assassination in that there's a lot of compartmentalized layers that work towards that outcome so it just "comes together" in the end, with most of the participants not being aware they did it. it's like not even really being killed by a person (although there are people) or a conspiracy per se, but being killed by a system

that's worse somehow.
