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

Last-minute lobbying to get their logo on the voting cards changed to Boris's face.

xp we’ll be looking back at my seagull and wishing the super-aggressive British versions were as easy to catch

"she acted weak when strong, and strong when weak" seems like something spoonfed by 1922 to the beeb, it looks like it's happening.

Change UK spent more than £1,300 on ads saying they wanted to ‘remain in the UK’ https://t.co/HEKRkxa7oi

OK, because of the time change and the constant onslaught of news both foreign and domestic, tell me if I've got the current craziness correct: May has said she'd be open to a second referendum, but only if ... people first vote for her shitty Brexit plan? Is that right?

No wonder Heidi Allen tries to quit.

BREAKING: @heidiallen75 tells me she offered to quit as @ForChange_Now leader after a row over whether Remainers should back @LibDems outside London/south east. She & colleagues like @sarahwollaston are for it, others like @Anna_Soubry against it. Full interview on @Channel4News

Yeah, I think so.

1922 aren't pushing May out - no rule change until after whitsun at the earliest says Brady

(Because that's how Tories talk)

Hot take - this is all bollocks and May will still be there in December. By which point we will still probably be in the EU.

Wait is Whitsun before or after Michaelmas Term I can't remember.

kantar poll implied seats

LDs are tories confirmed. not a bad result for labour that really

xp does this translate to Dan Hannan losing his seat?

How easy is it to attach a milkshake to a drone? Asking for a friend.

ILXors of old will know my facility with a blender. When we eventually abandon this government and this Brexit nonsense, White Russian milkshakes all ‘round!

if/when she finally steps down can we call the next one "theresa may grim resignation thread"

Dread Some Anal has resigned from the cabinet (she’s running).

No xp to Simon, abort abort

Rough anal has to be Liam Fox, right?

I think we are thinking of different BIs, but now I’m extremely traumatised 😩

what?

I accept that she may want to go but to do it the night before an election looks odd. It’s also a slap in the face to Tory party members who are working hard to get their candidates elected tomorrow. https://t.co/8edgGzxYoj

— Tom Watson (@tom_watson) May 22, 2019

those poor let down tory party members :(

this is just standard concern trolling, like Cameron telling Corbyn that he should resign b/c it's not in the 'national interest' to have a weak leader of the opposition, surely?

Leadsom topped and tailed her resignation letter with handwritten bits in turquoise gel pen. Pure class!

“Posh” s&v crisps with cider vinegar or whatever are always a disappointment, gyac otm - just chuck some fucking acetic acid on that shit

I'm confused now, does vinegaring invert class, so cider vinegar is posher than the co-op's Chardonnay vinegar?

lets not be bringing extremist m/c balsamic fundamentalism to this thread plz.

Wtf is this nonsense. We have better-organised polls

NEW: I understand the 1922 executive has voted tonight on whether or not to change Tory party rules to allow a new confidence vote in Theresa May. The votes have been sealed in an envelope, and if the PM hasn’t announced she’s resigned by Friday, they will open it.

— Daniel Hewitt (@DanielHewittITV) May 22, 2019

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in an envelope.

Very quite

i can't believe they don't move with the times ffs!

iirc they generally do whatever uncle rupe tells em tbf

was it at the height of her saboteur crushing pomp she had dinner with satan - probably, but seems so long ago now.

brendan rodgers documentarying the country oh thats amazing

1/2 Accounting Alchemy at British Steel - Its parent company British Steel Holdings Ltd says that it acquired assets from TATA and elsewhere at well below market prices (negative goodwill). It credited negative goodwill to its income statements - £50m in 2017 and £15m in 2018.

— Prem Sikka (@premnsikka) May 22, 2019

2/2 British Steel - Profit inflation by negative goodwill assumes that markets do not price assets correctly; sellers could not be bothered to sell assets separately to realize their higher value. British Steel also made a loss in 2008. Hard to see much logic in its accounting.

i trust this guy on corrupt shoddy corporate practice in the UK under shit Labour/Tory governments.

lol@ Nigel stuck in his bus - are there any photos he can share please? This is so good.

It's such a great idea, it would've been great to hound the cunt and his thugs like this back in 2016. I almost want a 2nd ref now.

I will take my dog to the polling station in the vain hope he turns it into a pooing station, so I can take a pic of a huge jobbie, just as a mildly amusing antidote to all twee doggy business on twitter.

I enjoy scrolling through to find lurchers and whippets at polling stations, so there.

Voted but disappointingly few photographers there - either Corbz had already voted or he's doing it later.

Maybe's he's just stopping down the allotment all day.
