Weâll do the right thing and make sure the poor cunts donât starve.
There wonât be another referendum.
I can see a trickery hard Brexit, but a vote for one is hard to see. Equally hard is a negotiated deal.
Not under a Tory government
To use a Kevin McStay line about the Kerry team of the 1980s as a matephor, the best hope is that Brexit will grow old and go away, with a second referendum under a Labour government eventually putting the puppy to sleep
It needs Johnson to fold and start accepting EU extensions for it to be possible
If that does happen, itâs a possibility
But Johnson has nothing to lose personally from a no deal Brexit, and lots to gain - and that is something to be really scared of
A taste of whatâs to come - Chloe Westley is a propagandist who fronts the US funded anarcho-capitalist astro-turf group âTaxpayersâ Allianceâ, and a fascist promoter who should not be near the levers of power
The fingerprints of Steve Bannon and his ilk are all over this
Her appointment proves that Johnson is preparing for an all out war on truth
Hi folks,
Good job in not replying to this gent on the U.S. thread.
Letâs follow the same approach here.
That De Gaulle quote you shared with us keeps coming front and centre everytime I think about brexit. How apt it was and is.
Thatâs the really annoying thing. None of those pushing Brexit amongst the political classes have anything to lose personally from Brexit. So they push their imperialistic hatred risk freeâŚ
Heâs lined up a right shower of cunts for his cabinet.
I suppose if you want an indicator of where Britain stands in the world today you only have to look at the insouciance with which Iran seized one of their ships.
They have no ships anymore
The Royal Navy has been reduced to a laughing stock.
The Dubliners song about âthe Irish Navyâ will be appropriate for them soon.
Very Trump
Yes, this belief is almost certainly correct â which is why a second referendum might be the âbest wayâ of breaking the logjam.
The second referendum is the natural place for him to go because heâs no principles either way and itâs what Tony Blair and many others expect to happen.
I see a big problem that makes it impossible for him.
After he gets over the hurdle of managing to hold a second referendum without the hard-Brexiters turning on him he has to secretly conspire behind the scenes to help Remain win, all while publicly backing Leave. Thatâs easily achievable but that ultimately leaves him in the exact same position as David Cameron where he has backed the losing side in a referendum. How can be stay on as Prime Minister after that?
I take your point about grave difficulties but wonder about the second point. Of course, getting a second referendum afloat would take a mighty heave, one difficult to achieve in quite a few ways. But I reckon BJ would not have âto secretly conspireâ, in a second vote, with Remain. He does the Leave schtick and observes into what the cookie crumbles. I think most people feel Remain, while far from a foregone conclusion, would win, guillotining the issue for at least a generation.
If Leave won again, people would have to suck up the result. The scenario becomes No Deal or â far more likely, with the DUP no longer pivotal â a border down the Irish Sea. There now appears to be a loose consensus that Theresa Mayâs deal minus the backstop is the preferred way forward, because there appears to be a majority in Parliament for its passage. This consensus is a remarkable enough alteration, since this deal (or some slightly diluted version of it) still leaves the UK effectively in the EU, with Brexiteer lurgies untouched.
There wonât be another referendum.
I wonderâŚ
Probably not. But if the EU does not flinch, and as the dynamic corkscrews towards madness, the least worst option once more rears its pale head. After all, BJ and JR-M, in the fullness of weeks, came to vote for a deal they earlier deemed, those weeks before, a âhumiliationâ. A second referendum, in this context, would be less of a volte face. There is likewise Labourâs cleft nature on the issue.
Anyhow⌠Onwards to the All Ireland semi finals.
Here comes Britainâs Trump
This is election language - attempting to portray him as âa British PM who takes no shitâ, even if heâs Monty Pythonâs black knight
A lot of people will buy this guff
Crashing out could make a united Ireland more likely, Irish PM says
I havenât, though Iâve heard of it alright.
