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

Obvious conclusion - put a German with fluorescent teeth in charge of the country.

Ah yes the Tories, famous for their admiration of the solidarity of the people of *checks notes* Liverpool?!

britain is man united.

meanwhile joanna cherry has gone full TERF the past couple of weeks

QC twitter is the worst twitter

For the life of me I will never understand TERFs. I’m on a closed FB group for freelance journos and every so often someone will pop up all like ‘a group of WOMEN are facing discrimination, anyone wanna help them by placing this story?’ and I just think ‘fuck you and your rhetoric’.

Mainstream British female journalists are full terf, I would be more surprised if a closed group of women journalists was any exception to that.

Another fine pair of fellas (this was in Corbyn’s likes, lol)

One of the best perks I have ever had by going on Marr (apart from meeting Andrew of course) has been meeting Adrian Dunbar. A brilliant actor and caring, thoughtful person. Though I couldn’t get who is H out of him! pic.twitter.com/MQABztZ9Xq

I can still picture Dunbar looking quite youthful in 90's stuff like The Crying Game and it oddly doesn't seem that long ago #livingtoolate/oldbastard

Back in the early ‘90s when I was supplementing my freelance income by working for a market research company (my manager was a guy who’d been a tour tech for Sonic Youth), I had an assignment to recruit ‘style leaders’ for an alcopop focus group so into Camden’s pubs I went. At the Enterprise I got chatting to an actor type who turned out to be Adrian Dunbar, who not only did the survey questionnaire but went around the pub hassling other likely-looking punters on my behalf. Top dude!

This is good.

This is significant. No matter what else may happen as a result of #Brexit, Irish and British citizens will still be able to live, travel work, study and access healthcare, housing and welfare in each other’s countries as though we were citizens of both https://t.co/NVlAjMeYmi

no not having it

Even an Arsenal fan can appreciate the astonishing performances by @LFC and @SpursOfficial over the last two nights. Two underdogs defying the odds to set up an all English Champions League Final. Congratulations and good luck to both teams in the final. #AJATOT

Yet more evidence that Corbyn is anti-Europe

Happy clapper bastard

xxp absolutely living for the bodying in the replies

Boss in north London solidarity can you make sure Theresa May doesn’t call another vote on the day of the final. I’m going to Madrid. Cheers. https://t.co/tXJePH5Qcb

This is more difficult: but as an Arsenal fan, I have to accept that was also incredible by Spurs! https://t.co/U6GJun61cj

Spurs and Arsenal are basically the same, it's fine

Esther McVey isn't going to win the premiership.

Johnny Mercer tells @LBC he has yet to receive a response from the Prime Minister after he said he would not vote with the Government over the historical prosecution of servicemen and women.

cmon Johnny! acc-en-chu-ate the positive!

pls can the next thread be called "Who wants to live in a country stuck in this endless loop?"

Really glad this is Corbyn’s shadow defence secretary.

Glad to hear this from the new Defence Sec.

The Tories made a commitment to deal with this back in 2017 and it‘s shameful that no action has been taken.

Labour will support any proposals that are effective and fair and I look forward to working with @PennyMordaunt on this. https://t.co/2dn2pBDzbr

Glad to see there's gonna be a statute of limitations on murder and/or war crimes

they’re not war crimes if Our Brave Boys say they aren’t

I thought they'd at least wait for the next election campaign before they turned into New Labour in disguise.

CHUK are right, we do need a new way of doing politics in this country. Getting rid of about 90 odd % of the current parliament would be a good start.

getting rid of about 90 odd % of the current population would be a better start

take that thanos you fucking coward

I suppose they do have to pick an arsehole for shadow defence, someone with a disposition for brown-nosing the our boys. Or you get gammons saying the iranian pillocks are waiting to nuke us the sec Corbz gets elected. But repping for freedom to commit atrocities makes them as morally redundant as the fucking tories and they can get fucked.

fuck's sake

Idgi surely staining the reputation of the British army is the worst thing you can do, these people should be in favour of bringing back the death penalty just for soldiers who recreationally murder civilians and surrendering enemy combatants

QC twitter having a banner day again

Tweet says don’t scapegoat and then entirely blames groups for particular things.

Low wages aren’t caused entirely by bad employers - it’s more complex

Similarly financial crisis and bankers.

Just because they share blame doesn’t mean they should be lumped with all of it

— Adam Wagner (@AdamWagner1) May 10, 2019

absolute state of that nia griffiths tweet

that old chestnut "more complex" eh? If someone smacked that fool in the head with a hammer it might be a good demonstration of how some bad things have very simple and blindingly obvious causes that are not all "complex".

QC Twitter = a good reminder of why a murderous dictatorship of the proletariat might be a net positive for humanity.

It is complicated given the unknowable workings of divine providence

I need wise sage to explain to me the mysteries of poverty wages being paid by those whom are paying less corporation tax than 10 years ago .. the complexities of which can only be explained by the wise master from the golden windmill.

Re: all the “bankers are people too!” morons, this take remains evergreen

Corbyn's just playing a game of cunt chicken now to see what the soundest policy is he can come out with that pricks will still say is shit.

thanks hostile-environment policy, very cool!

At least five people have been killed in Jamaica since March last year after being deported from the UK by the Home Office, the Guardian has learned.

The killings took place after the men were sent back to Jamaica – which has one of the highest per capita murder rates in the world – despite strict rules prohibiting deportations to countries in which an individual’s life may be in danger.

The government does not routinely monitor what happens to people who have been deported. But through interviews and archive research, the Guardian has verified the deaths of the five men and been told by other returnees that they fear for their lives.

They should have listened to the standard home office advice to disguise their accents.

but n/w it's not like the UK commits violence against its citizens in the same manner the evil CCP does.

who needs gulags when you can just ship people who can't provide 10,000 pages of documentation to prove their citizenships off to other countries to be murdered

I said this the other day: much better odds of surviving Xi's gulags than UK's hostile environment.

Dude, it's still wrong. Let it go.

I didn't say it was you predictable clown.

The government is perfectly happy to deport people to active war zones, idk if Jamaica is going to present any qualms.

Just a friendly reminder that China routinely deports North Korean defectors back to their 'home' country. And no, I'm not defending the UK's hostile environment policy, which is no doubt about to get worse in the wake of Brexit.

Yeah, it's bad form to minimize the suffering of others in order to make your political opponents seem as evil as possible.

Still relevant:

However, the approach that has led to such problems for the Windrush generation – the policy often described as the "hostile environment" – still has overwhelming public support. In principle, seven in ten (71%) support a policy of requiring people to show documents proving their right to be in Britain in order to do things such as taking up employment, renting a flat, or opening a bank account. Just 15% oppose this. Asked about specific situations, 82% think people should have to prove their right to be in the UK before accepting a job, 79% before registering with a GP and 74% before renting a home.

I listened to Jeremy Cunt on hardtalk the other week. His braindead spiel was that the great western democracies inhabit some moral high ground over the rest of uncivilisation, who all need to learn to respect US power and then everything will be alright.
