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

Ben Melton send tweet

lol, talking about shoehorning Brexit into reviews: "Like a parody of Brexit Britain, never has the 1967 comedy been more horribly pertinent than it is now" - Peter Bradshaw on Mel brooks' The Producers.

My favourite example of this is still when Pitchfork reviewed the Joe Armon Jones record, quoting a line about "no more blood on the streets" and relating it to "a Britain beset by Brexit". Yes dude, that's definitley what he's singing about.

That being said, as with human rights violations, make no mistake: the fact that the EU is shit on it doesn't mean that the tories won't gleefully race further to the bottom as soon as EU restrictions are lifted. I'd rather be employed in the EU than the US anytime.

it is easy (for smug twats like Bradshaw) to generalise about the benefits of EU membership when because he is never going find himself in a position where he doesn't have any employment rights worth shit in some cursed warehouse in Dewsbury. And also the long history of struggle and hard earned workers rights in western Europe goes way beyond the relatively short existence of the EU, despite some of these blue-faced fools holding banners that seem to say otherwise. Like already discussed on thread, the threat of eternal austerity under tories or labour in a post brexit world is a paper tiger to millions of voters in precarious employment and already fucked over hard by Osborne's tax credit cuts, in this "modern-day nursery of employment rights" lol.

Doesn't the theme of the movie he's just awarded 5 stars to contradict his little brexit postscript anyway ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

No cos all those awful soul-destroying zero hour jobs only exist because of Brexit or something

They certainly didn't exist when we were protected by the EU's employment laws... er, hold on.

Thankfully, future generations of Eastern European immigrants will be spared this ignominy on British soil.

reason to be cheerful .. workers rights are much better here than in Azerbaijan as well ...

"If we tell you that you've got two days to live
Then don't complain, 'cause that's one more than you'd get in Zaire"

for what is worth, Pom. In the early 90's I did that crop-cutting work (£3.83 ph + fullbennies*) that is work only seen fit for some of your compatriots in the UK these days. Which is bullshit because bringing in the crops is very important work and fuck ppl that think it isn't or ppl that think those that do it shouldn't be awarded more dignity and decent pay.

Tristram Hunt suddenly looking like a master historian next to this pitiful eejit.

I do envy his self-aggrandizing zeal on some twisted level.

The pure bliss of the doubtless.

if he'd actually experienced some major setbacks and struggles in his life then maybe he could try an autobiography then?

You're not willing to use your Saturday to come into the Job Centre to look for work? I'm afraid that's a sanction. https://t.co/pfxIZujLhI

nice to see cuddly liberal Amber Rudd making up for her hostile environment "nightmare" by making Universal Credit even more of a fucking nightmare.

Chaotic scenes in Newcastle city centre as Nigel Farage hit by a milkshake. He’s been whisked away by his security. This is the aftermath. pic.twitter.com/qxz8yay492

The cackling is A++.

This may not affect the votes either way, but this is a good way to say people aren't prepared to put up with vermin walking around full stop.

Looking forward to the government's Milkshakes and Dairy-Based Projectiles Act 2020

whisked away

no

wait, what?

Exciting to see that CHUK-TIG have their second policy! pic.twitter.com/4K6AYrgOvw

still doing some kind of bad, unfunny meta-comedy I see.

guaranteed vote-winner, great work everyone

also, enjoying the recent spate of milkshake news but noticing some handwringing in the replies

what, I wonder, is the Venn diagram of people keen to paint Thomas Mair as definitely a lone unstable person whose political views were entirely irrelevant vs people now all typing "oh, a milkshake, look how the left/Remoaners resort to violence! where will it end?"

Thomas Mair who was pictured at a very small but visibly Britain First demo in Dewsbury town centre, months before murdering Jo Cox wasn't affiliated with any of yack Yacks friends at all, no. Throwing milk at fash is feelgood and funny as fuck. I don't think think anyone who thinks NF is a bell-end is going become sympathetically predisposed towards cos of VIOLENT MILK ATTACK in the streets.

a perfect circle?

xpost

I don't think ppl who don't really think much about NF are going to become sympathetically predisposed towards him cos of spilt milk. It just makes look like a disheveled loser.

What I meant to say was it will only engender farage sympathy among his base, who are bunch of cunts anyway.

Also connects him with Herr von Yaxlich, tars him with the same, er, milkshake.

McVey's 'Blue Collar Conservatism' seems to be about law and order, slashing the overseas aid budget and No-Deal Brexit - no sweat. Probably more honest than Amber Rudd's One Nation posturing tbf.

If dead people could carry on voting for a decade, she might make this work.

Posthumous voting, now there's an idea. If that gets brought in you could pre-register your voting intentions unto eternity, thus helping to keep culture stagnant far beyond your demise.
