always been confused by the apparent lack of locally devolved authority round your parts, are there not people constantly banging on about the ancient rights and privileges of the shires or whatever xps

well no, silby, bcz it was tories that began the great removal, and it was a removal of money, and it was a removal of money manily from cities (several not even in shires, let alone ancient)

mainly the shires with privileges are tory, bcz the privilege is that the land is owned by some bastard

I was talking this old guy and he mentioned he used to work for the Savilles and I replied Who? And he looked at me like I was insane and gestured as if "them Savilles that own own everything we survey". I still don't know who the fuck they are tbh.

Jimmy and Pete.

Monica Kindle (Tom D.), Monday, 10 December 2018 19:14 (seven years ago)

J Saville did own a lot of property iirc?

Ned Trifle X, Monday, 10 December 2018 19:16 (seven years ago)

no this guy looked more like he had broken out of morgue, rather than the type to break into one!

calzino, Monday, 10 December 2018 19:17 (seven years ago)

Did he think the estate agents of the same name owned the properties. Was he, in fact, a surveyor?

Ned Trifle X, Monday, 10 December 2018 19:18 (seven years ago)

(nearly the same name anyway)

Ned Trifle X, Monday, 10 December 2018 19:18 (seven years ago)

I'll skip the long story, but he is definitely not a surveyor!

^^apparently there's a claim they are descended from the consuls of ancient rome

It reminds of that article ogmor linked recently that showed most UK wealth/land is still in the families of those with Norman derived surnames or something.

calzino, Monday, 10 December 2018 19:29 (seven years ago)

the norman thing sounds more plausible than the roman thing

back in the early 90's I briefly worked as a crop picker for a Preston based company called Hunta-pac. One day the owner is riding past on a horse in full riding gear and whip etc and some fool says in awed tones "that's William Hunter himself there!". It was a pleasant scene of medieval fools tilling the land for £3.81 an hour. If I had a hat on me I'd have doffed it and said "G'day squire".

Labour MP grabs the Mace. I can't remember exactly what the implications of that are in parliamentary terms but I think it's more complicated than 'put it back, deal with him later'.

Bimlo Horsewagon became Wheelbarrow Horseflesh (aldo), Monday, 10 December 2018 21:16 (seven years ago)

Googling it I find it's nothing as long as it isn't removed, and that John McDonnell is a previous mace-botherer.

this sentence would be a lot more menacing if Eric Joyce was still an MP

Brighton Kemptown @lloyd_rm grabs ceremonial mace in Commons chamber in protest at Government closing Brexit debate without a vote... a vote that we calculate would have seen 422 vote against 186 for (31 unknown, 11 non voting).pic.twitter.com/mLggi0f0gj

In 1976, Michael Heseltine, a member of the Conservative Party, seized the mace from the table and held it above his head after Labour MPs on the government side started to sing "The Red Flag", the traditional anthem of the Labour Party, during a heated debate on the controversial Aircraft and Shipbuilding Industries Bill, which nationalised large parts of the UK aerospace and shipbuilding industries.[22]

fool's bauble indeed amirite

good grief, Soubry really grinds my gears. Moderate Tories attacking Corbyn as weak opposition "not holding us to account" seems 10 times worse than those from the far right that attack him on McD's plans for the economy.

calzino, Monday, 10 December 2018 23:11 (seven years ago)

The Wreakin Tories are 1000x worse

And telling Richard Burgon to grow up after he called her on her austerity cheerleader bullshit. Fuck off, Patsy.

At least they actually went and spoke to some Tories instead of traipsing up north to ferret out some Labour voting working class leavers.

Monica Kindle (Tom D.), Monday, 10 December 2018 23:14 (seven years ago)

Possibly the first time the BBC has ever described a middle class Tory constituency as a Brexit stronghold.

Monica Kindle (Tom D.), Monday, 10 December 2018 23:16 (seven years ago)

I miss The Red Flag...

Without xenophobic middle-class Tory golf Nazis, there wouldn’t even be a Brexit.

suzy, Monday, 10 December 2018 23:26 (seven years ago)

the melts/blairites used to patronisingly tell us that the only way to win an election is by by appealing to the middle ground, but apparently different rules apply to referendi that fucking go wrong!
