Troubles can start again

People can be unconcerned.

People can also try and understand what the fuck they are talking about before they put their hands on the keyboard.

People unconcerned about tit for tat killings, RPG rounds fired at public buildings, and bombs being planted as a daily occurrence? I refuse to believe that even you with your "maximum chaos" and deep-seated malevolence towards others could seriously believe that.

He literally argued why dont we build a wall and put an underground tunnel for trade.

He knows fuck all about this place, or what its like here, and is continuing with his edgy societal destruction bollocks.

Boris has blinked over the extension issue.

I mean knowing GVH he probably does. He did once say throwing the UK into chaos was a good thing in his eyes.

Have UK voters changed their minds on Brexit?

And the answer is maybe?

I still like my free trade zone idea, honestly.

The Salvation Army, and other groups, are helping the Home Office deport vulnerable homeless people. People are lured in to "immigration surgeries" in churches and community centres with promises of help with their immigration status and assurances that this is not part of an enforcement approach, but in fact this is an initiative of the Home Office's immigration enforcement unit.

For fuck's sake. I would have thought that the Salvie knew better, but clearly not.

More of a 'not really' if you read the article.

DUP defends Arlene Foster's 'astonishing' meetings with senior loyalists

THE DUP has defended its leader's decision to meet loyalist paramilitaries to discuss the implications of a mooted Brexit deal that could see a so-called border in the Irish Sea.

Arlene Foster and other senior party figures are reported to have held talks in recent days with high-ranking figures from the UVF and UDA - including south Belfast's Jackie McDonald.

The meetings follow weekend reports of potential loyalist protests if the Northern Ireland's status in the UK is "diluted" after the UK leaves the EU.

A spokesman for the DUP said: "The party engages with a range of stakeholders about a range of matters on an ongoing basis in the interests of moving Northern Ireland forward."

So are the DUP bum mates with loyalist paramilitaries? Are they letting paramilitaries voices and opinions inform their actions and policies for the future?

The answer, wont shock you.

Also lol at sf calling them out on this.

I imagine they know full well what they're doing.

The government has dropped a plan to use strict age verification checks to stop under-18s viewing porn online.

Good. The entire plan was unworkable. The government was repeatedly told it was unworkable, but they pressed ahead anyway; but it shouldn't surprise me that it took them until now to realise what everybody else already knew.

This is so sad Alexa play Entry of the Gladiators. I'd love to know how much public money was wasted on this terrible idea.

As usual for the Tory nanny state: Too much.

Which graph are you reading?

Simplified for you:

Graph 1:
46% Some kind of leave in general
34% Revoke/Ref2

Graph 2:
40% Some kind of leave on 31 Oct
9% Extension
18% Ref 2
22% Revoke

Graph 3:
67% of Remain voters in 2016 want to Revoke Brexit
27% of Remain voters in 2016 want some kind of Brexit
----
6% of Leave voters in 2016 want to Revoke Brexit
82% of Leave voters in 2016 want some kind of Brexit

For each 2016 Leave voter who now wants to Remain or have a second referendum (caveat: some Leave voters might want 2nd ref but vote Leave again anyway), there is a 2016 Remain voter who wants No deal at the end of this month, and that's not even counting double that number of Remainers who want another extension or May's deal.

Please tell me which one shows majority support for staying in the EU and kindly explain the mental gymnastics used to reach said conclusion.

You: This wall is painted red.
Me: No, it is quite clearly blue.
You: Yes but you didn't account for the possibility of me painting it red.

Wew lad we have reached peak IQ.

[Vassenor]

So here's the million pound question: If Brexit is still 100% the will of the people why is everyone on the Leave side so opposed to a second referendum? Surely all it can do is confirm that.
