how quickly we forgot kezia dugdale's appearance on i'm a celebrity

tbh the idea that the English develop a taste for chevaline would probably be in the top ten things about No-deal Britain.

mmm rouleaux de porc d'haie

we're all gonna end up developing a taste for long pig, that's for sure

you could at least wait until no-deal brexit happens, tho!

Pressed by Blackford to end arms sales to Saudi Arabia because of the humanitarian catastrophe in Yemen, May says the UK rules on arms sales are“among the strictest in the world”.

The cash is thoroughly checked, the cheques thoroughly cashed.

look they might have ticked the YES box on Do You intend to commit genocide with these weapons? But if we don't, someone else will ...etc..

Jesus Christ @ those Conservative Home posts upthread. I have more exposure to annoying FBPE Twitter so it helps to be reminded from time to time that the flipside is driven by people who are so deranged they would prefer the UK to voluntarily impose economic sanctions on itself.

Speaking of which:

BREXIT: I can’t believe I’m tweeting this about the U.K. in 2018 via @FT

Britain is drawing up plans to charter ships to bring in emergency food and medicines in the event of a “no-deal” Brexit next March, in a move greeted with disbelief at a stormy meeting of cabinet on today

— Darren McCaffrey (@DarrenEuronews) October 23, 2018

I know the idea is that they'll use other ports to avoid chaos at Dover/Calais but they'll still be subject to customs checks so are the charter ships going to be able to bring in that much extra stuff more efficiently? (I don't know, so I'm asking. Let's hope so. Wait, no, let's hope it doesn't come to that at all, but it's looking more and more like No Deal)

some of these grotesque people are so far to the right that in comparison small c conservative politicians I used to immensely dislike like Warsi seem principled and decent, and dare I say it ..likeable!

who is the unnamed businessman

magritte took it to his grave

The firm of lawyers used by the unnamed businessman was Schillings. One of their Top clients is known for running Shops. These two pieces of information could be related, but nobody I know has identified the businessman in question.

The fact he seems to be the first person everyone thinks of tells its own story.

Another way to winnow down the candidates is, of course, to check which of the possibles buy advertising space in the Telegraph. A colleague was hoping a certain NHS-swiping Galactic dude who had been handsy with her IRL was the one, but who knows?

a grasping creepazoid in every sense. Once a Sky call centre person pointed out my hypocrisy at refusing to give a penneth to Murdoch, but then using that twat's media subsidiary instead. It was a fair cop.

Thread for documenting effects of Brexit in your own situations

Eat the book “academic” getting torn apart in this thread (over the disgraceful debate he was hosting that asked if ethnic minorities were a threat to the nation):

Lol and also I see that David Aaronovitch is also upset:

This week I’ve been normalising fascism. Allow me to explain. I was due to take part in a debate entitled “Is Rising Ethnic Diversity a Threat to the West?” Some people think it is, because it’s provoking unrest among white voters. I think it isn’t.

debating whether the UK should be ethnically cleansed is totally a free speech issue

Aaronovich was never the brightest public intellectual, and it appears that the political climate of 2018 has swept him out to sea. Either that or he has spent his entire career pretending not to get things.

Aaronovitch was never a public intellectual tbf.

Sorry, forgot my scare quotes

Removing "public intellectual" will work just as well.

my idea of a "public intellectual" is me so clearly they're ppl we shd never pay attention to

Looked into it and not possible to have a worse debate under worse qustion with worse panel.

Oh FFS they have Claire Fox

^^
such a worst ever panel of "public intellectual snowflake killas" would have include Claire Fox, what a hateful pos!

lol was xp'ed by mfktz there as well!

tbf she was the only woman who agreed to take part out of the great many they surely invited

No Brendan O'Neill, credibility.
