UK Politics Thread IX: The Masses Against the Classes

[An Alan Smithee Nation]

If no-show BoJo hides in his bunker much longer there's going to be a lot of Downfall parodies

Carrie Symonds was actually telling Fegelein to get out of her flat.

[Vassenor]

It's a shame Sky aren't going to have Jeremy Hunt debating with a tub of lard.

Imbued with much the same qualities and liable to give a much better performance.

[Cerinda]

Some good news, also huge surprise but Farage is a bad loser.

Post-brexit?

[Cerinda]

To be honest Johnson and Hunt should have a boxing match and whoever wins will become prime minister, it would make things a lot more interesting.

What do you think of the forced abortion of the Nigerian woman? I think the UK has lost morality

I'm happy it's been overturned. Lord Justice Jackson is, without a doubt, one of my favourite judges (yes, I have favourite judges), so I knew it had a good shout.

About half of Scotland wants independence regardless of Brexit, and that percentage will only increase when we leave the EU.
The North West of Wales (the part the actually speaks Welsh) wants to leave if Brexit happens too.
Catholic communities want to unify the island of Ireland under the Republic if we leave the EU.

If they all got their way, the UK could be reduced to England, Cardiff, Pembrokeshire and Belfast
Although I doubt any English government would ever allow for independence referendums again any time soon. Unless we end up with a Lab/SNP coalition.

If anyone cares, i'm half English & half Welsh but have grown up my entire life in England.
Although if Wales did ever go independent I would seriously consider moving there purely out of my entirely illogical romanticisation for most seperatist movements.

Belfast is like plurality catholic at this stage i think from the last time i looked at the religion breakdown of this place anyway.

Gosh, no wonder there's a housing crisis if this is the sort of home a couple with one child requires.

They're only spending their own money.

A poor attitude, comrade.

2.4 million is a rounding error in terms of government budget tbh.

EU assessing whether UK government “deliberately prevented” EU citizens from voting

So yeah, they're looking into the whole thing where EU nationals were blocked from voting in the last EUParl elections.

Took their sweet time. There were allegations of that happening even at the postal voting stage.

[Duhon]

Might as well ask this one.

So for those who want Brexit (or plain Exit as the case will be if you keep on tearing your own country apart): what positive do you get from this? You lose Scotland and Northern Ireland, even possibly Wales, your economy craters, your political system descends into a shithole.

Other than the "sovereignty" snake oil, what is there for you to get?

Yeah, because the royals spending money is so evil, it’s not like the private sector is exponentially worse...

Oh wait, they are. From private jets, to expensive cars to super yachts billionaires waste far more money then the royals.

So BoJo wants to ram through Brelol with or without a deal and the Northern Ireland border issue "will" be "solved" post-Brelol.
I see nothing wrong with this plan of his. At all...

You're implying there's even an atomic particle of a plan.

Wonder which contractors he owns shares in for when the Peace Walls start going back up.

Ah, you got me. My disdain for the royals is totally hypocritical given my deep and abiding love for wealthy capitalists.

"Fuck Northern Ireland and actually doing shit"
Official Government Policy since well forever.

“Some Poor People Will Have To Die” Johnson Unveils Hard Brexit Pledge

“It’s do or die. By die; I mean obviously just the poor. We’ll all have to make sacrifices. By all, again I mean only poor people and by sacrifice; again I mean death. That’s about it folks,” explained Johnson in a speech the Daily Telegraph described as ‘Churchillian’.

“Isn’t that the monstrous, venal cunt who said spending money on police investigations of historic child sex abuse was just money ‘spaffed up a wall’?” asked a passerby who was still tethered to reality.

Wrong Hunt for a boxing match.

Are we quite sure that's not just a leaked first draft of a speech he ended up being talked out of giving?
