PMs change and lol we're all gonna die (but brexit will never end)

i think Corbs this morning said "no recess unless you confirm you'll follow the spirit of the Benn bill" so no recess it is then

Paula is my MP and had to hire security and received multiple death threats from far right fringe lunatics. She is a brilliant constituency MP, my partner has had multiple letters from her about concerns like PIP, UC, and LA funding for SEN and all sorts and she follows me on twitter. So fuck you Boris you prick, I sincerely hope you die cunt.

The best way to ensure that every Parliamentarian is properly safe and we dial down the current anxiety in this country is to get Brexit done

As a rhetorical device this is identical to the way they make threats in Mafia films.

thing is even May was using this WWII-adjacent language, "saboteurs" etc, it goes a long way back and they're never really called on it, expect a lot of snowflake talk on the way to/during a GE

xxp please send her a nice message, I am sure she could do with it

expect a lot of snowflake talk on the way to/during a GE

They'll be going totally alt-right, I think.

“Maximising the white vote”, wasn’t it?

"There are legitimate passions on all sides" vs. "You also had people that were very fine people, on both sides..."

legitimate passions is just cretinous unless mendaciously deliberate.

“no matter how wild and dangerous you are, if you feel *passionate* about it, we’ll legitimise it”.

once again the extreme forms are useful for explaining the quieter less obvious ones.

or, my other version of this is a twat at work who says “i feel v passionately/strongly this is the right/wrong thing to do”. it’s like what are we supposed to do with the strength of that alone my dude. all you’re asking is to challenge your emotional response in the hope that we won’t because it’s too embarrassing.

NO ONE QUOTE YEATS PLZ. but passion or expressed strength of feeling means nothing.

Manchester Central's MP said that pulling the conference would cost the city in the region of £30m. That's a lot of champagne and gak.

i mean in terms of a rhetorical inflection point not BLIAR sort of thing.

his whole defence of Iraq came down to "i really believed in the project"

true. passionately believed. with an intersection of religious morality. passion as evidence of virtue.

don’t know why i used “intersection” a dick there. locked myself out of flat and eating a chinese off my bins so.

they're just running scared of Ian Austin turning up with his van

thing is i borrowed a fork off my neighbour explaining the situation and she said “sure here you go” rather than “come in and wait and eat your chinese”. so bins it is.

think they were watching tv waiting for ian austin to turn up.

For god's sake go to the pub.

wrong bracket, that looks like the Pringles emoji

Matt otm, go to the pub!

in the pub now.

some *banging* house music playing.

*awful

fortunately my housemate lol will be back soon.

tbf i’m enjoying myself.

Did you bring the Chinese or not

did you bring the bins

Sitting in the pub with binoculars is plain weird.

lolol

no i ate it on the bins and then put it in the bin. talked to a few passers by, all v supportive and funny.

lady gaga now.

in pub with chinese binoculars and no keys. (7)

and fuck United tbf.

stephen bush restrained but that makes the anger at the end even more potent.

I don't often do pure opinion, but made an exception tonight. Boris Johnson knows exactly what he's doing and what the consequences of what he says might be: https://t.co/iSfhkxFCcn

Don’t know why I lold at “small bag of hula hoops”

Rare incident where I agree with John Woodcock

The problem is that the selective outrage mob want it exclusively their way. Honestly? It’s all unnecessary, and I wish it wasn’t a feature of politics. But the reality is that your type and many MPs have stoked this fire for years, and cry wolf when it becomes a two way street. https://t.co/d1077mHEsP

shut up you fucking fool

xp I think the Fizzles mood of absurd was catching

The ditch awaits.

s.bush otm - whether it will work or not remains to be seen. we've seen how shamelessness and 'plaster-stripping' energised trump's base in the US. unfortunately for johnson, there is one set of pearl clutchers who this type of behaviour will definitely alienate: so-called moderate (i.e. socially liberal, economically-right leaning) 'cameroonian' voters in the home counties. he better hope dominic cummings is very good at counting

bush is such a fucking weirdo with his cameron fandom it puts me off reading recently him tbh!

Some MPs were in tears tonight, some walked out, some told me they feared they won’t be able to return home because of the language the PM is using, some told me abuse on twitter has already got worse tonight:https://t.co/yqv18iKsEG

Oh Nick

@NickBoles
1h
My lovely generous-spirited True Blue Tory sister has just sent me the following message: “I have now given up watching the PM - he has behaved more revoltingly than one could believe possible. He is the nastiest man imaginable. I hope it rebounds on him. To bed in disgust.”

not like jess phillips to not just tweet that herself

bush is such a fucking weirdo with his cameron fandom it puts me off reading recently him tbh!

Lads, lads, we may as well give up now

I never thought I’d type these words. But if someone doesn’t get a grip of Boris Johnson and his No.10 operation I’m voting for Jeremy Corbyn.
