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

Toilet roll shortage?

Isn’t it like £3 a pop, you could buy several tabloids for that if you were caught short? It’s not even better quality paper like

I think Archant, the publisher of The European, has links to the Co-Op and puts out their in-house magazine, which might partly explain it.

"It’s not even better quality paper like"

It's the journalism

That fishhooking won’t pay for itself!

NEW: @georgegalloway tells me that he has approached @Nigel_Farage directly to say he wants to stand in Peterborough by-election for his Brexit Party. But if not selected, he could stand as an independent.

Seumus Milne's Big Brother.

I got a letter from the co-op recently informing me about some vote I can make. I was like Brenda - got local elections tomorrow, Euro ones coming up - fuck off with this ilm poll shit.

are Labour co-op MPs selected through different means than just Labour MPs? I’ve never really understood how that works.

Just back on Hobson. This thread is pretty good, looking at how Corbyn might've engaged with it in the first place. He is more of a liberal than his enemies think, and in turn less of a radical than his friends think.

It occurs to me that one of the reasons people are so horrified by the Hobson thing is that they don't actually read anything from the canon, so it may help to clarify that most of it is as evil as fuck, and it's standard scholarly practice to just blithely pretend not to notice.

it's only fair to expect some dilettante who was a minor figure at the time rather than LOTO, to completely overturn what the academic establishment was saying about canon works at the time when asked to provide a preface.

Dug out my polling card which idk I always feel obliged to bring (probably a hangover from voting at home) so here’s to voting in my first local election ever - and yes I am rightly ashamed of that.

my first ever vote in a LE was only a couple of years ago. Not remotely ashamed, fuck every last one of these corrupt pieces of shit from every party tbh!

Absolutely no signs of election activity where I am so I assume we're not having any.

Did you have some last year?

Christ, local elections, who remembers them?

I can never forget the delirium of LE 2017. This bloke said to me it's not that entrance, it's this one here by that sign that says Polling Station.

got five o helicopters flying right over my bastard house and setting my dog off. John Singleton directing a local production of Boyz n' The Hood in the heavy woolen district tonight.

No local elections in London. Doing Postal for the European (forget I am forever signed to vote this way).

Just on my way to the polling station with my dog who I'll have to tie up outside. If he does a shit I'll leave it it as a write in vote for the libdem candidate.

first time I voted was in a local election, I was the youngest person on the electoral roll, and I voted for my mum who got elected as a Labour district councillor. There was an article in the Oxford Mail to commemorate this milestone in the history of democracy.

Funny that you mention voting for your mum, cos my local Labour candidate is called Dad.

spooky!

Hope your dog was ok and you got him settled, calz? That’d freak mine out as well.

Too late to go this morning but will drop in after work.

yeah he's fine now, combination of loud house party next door and rumbling copper chopper hovering above made him think all hell was breaking loose for about half an hour.

i agree with Tom Watson for once, if Williamson is as innocent as he says then he has nothing to hide from a full criminal inquiry into the leak.

incidentally, how is MR seumas milne 61 ?! must be drinking his six pints of water a day

SV care to comment on your skincare regime ?

Genes and fucking off the right, iirc.

warning from history! Stafford Cripps was a lapsed tankie and a vegetarian who used to preach the benefits of eating raw vegetables, and he croaked it at 62.

i have been crafting an "H IS BLOBBY" joke for some days now

Rumour about the blobby investigation is that they have a man on the inside
