Seizing back control: The ILX lol brexit is how we're all gonna die thread.

6 more months of uncertainty and business spaffing money up the wall on no deal planning

heard Scrutodyce got pumped.

Teh Scrutemeister has snuffed it

Can't see the logic in the EU agreeing, nay asking, UK to play along in the elections. It will hijack the whole damn thing; maybe not in the UK, but outside it most certainly.

Farage will be glad they got his salary sorted tho.

Also I know it's hard to believe but 5 years ago people just didn't care that much about the EU - I think it's safe to say that's changed now.

I reckon 50% is about right.

as a commonwealth citizen can I run as a MEP for some tiny Brexiteer-ridden enclave of little England or

Turnout will be an excellent litmus test of how many people in the country are really committed Brexiters or FBPErs - I'd expect 80%+ turnout among ultras and a decent turnout among people who are otherwise reasonably politically engaged, while virtually no one else will bother to vote.

Depressingly OTM.

Sounds about right. Not exactly REF2 then.

scrutons in ur bouillabaisse killin eu d00dz

mods pls start scruton thread so I can stop flagging posts itt

clearly you've been subjecting posts in this thread to heavy scrutony

Sounds fair but I have completely no idea any more what % of people are ultras/"reasonably engaged"/mostly unengaged/actively tearing up their poll card

Is this extension definitely in the bag now or does it still need voted on somewhere? It is a nice day and it would be p. nice to have just a temporary reprieve from thinking about all this bullshit.

Pretty sure pro-EU ultras could have fitted in a telephone box last time there were EU elections.

back in those days when fools with blue face-paint would only be seen at playoff finals.

Or at Scotland rugby internationals.

or comic cons

tbf an exhaustive list would probably require another thread, but erm.. there still weren't as many of the blue faced fuckers!

Smurfs for Provence

xp I mean, yeah? Voting in the EU elections wasn't a major political statement back then, it was a year away from the UK Election with Cameron's bloody pledge.

You are of course free to get to fuck with that shite, NV.

I lolled!

it's distressingly easy to get a rise out of the intolerant centre

In lighter news, Julian Assange has just been arrested!

for stealing May's moves

Overnight, a handful of people, some describing themselves as activists, began arriving at the embassy in Knightsbridge. A row of orange tents, filled with white teddy bears, a guitar and a large babushka doll, was set up outside the building. Supporters spelled out "No Expulsion" in lights on the footpath outside the embassy

I feel there is some healing here, some room for myself and NV to unite to mock these fuckos.

hey i'm nothing if not an equal opportunity fucko-mocker ~:)

dunno where that squiggle came from, bloody laptop keyboards

anyway we can now look forward to Assange's defence which i'm sure will totally not just be "stitched up by the dark state"

Christ can you imagine the smell of that cupboard though?

i would prefer not to

Norris will be presenting him a guinness book of records medal for longest stay for an unwanted guest in a filthy wanking pit.

i put up a decent challenge between ages 13 and 18 tbf

Norris is too busy lobbying Beelzebub to resist the backstop

sat on a chair bound with the skin of republican scum!

Tommy Robinson was due to speak at a conference in Prague. Instead, he got blind drunk, threw up all over his room and broke all the furniture. The conference was cancelled as a result. https://t.co/JUJIQC4Z06

It was a great event of the Czech anti-Islamist scene. The British icon of the movement against Muslim migration to Europe, Tommy Robinson, arrived in Prague. But everything ended infamously. The conference in the Chamber of Deputies was canceled and other actions were not taken because Robinson had been drunk the night before that he was unable to stand. During his rampage he managed to vomit and destroy the hotel room.

i defy anyone to find me a better metaphor for britain's relationship with the european union

sorry about TR content but I thought that translation was quite amusing.

Absolute 10/10 week so far.

trying to get thrown out of the EU for misbehaving?

Pretty sure Allah slipped him a mickey

it's part of a covert lefty bbc plot to subtract credibility from him.

poor old yackety yax

The TR base will 100% approve of that behaviour

Which one's Yaxley-Lennon-McCartney and which one's Tommy Atkinson though?

it will go down fine with the TR base, but it begs the question can just any old pissed up violent degenerate get a platform on the bbc these days. Just start asking some random pissed up numpt who got arrested for headbutting a statue what he thinks about the big picture of EU immigration!

that is putting aside his white supremacy hate speak for the purpose of that post!

They used to have Charles Kennedy on tbf

we don't see so much of him nowadays tho tbf

I often think of his pissed up appearances on QT when I'm needing some succor and inspiration to help me continue dogging on through this marvelous journey of life.

i knew about his drinking but dogging too? christ
