The most remarkable feature of Brexit? For the first time in history, Ireland is more powerful than EnglandBecause Ireland is backed by Germany, France, Spain, Portugal, Holland, Sweden, Italy, Poland, Denmark, Belgium + 16 more Euro nationsEngland doesn’t even have the UK— Andrew Adonis (@Andrew_Adonis) October 12, 2019

Eno endorsed Corbyn on Marr and criticised the unrelenting media campaign against him - wouldn't be surprised if both the other two (albeit one of them a shy voter!) voted tory
― calzino, Sunday, 13 October 2019 17:33 (six years ago)
But which of the others? Honestly thought they could both be nailed on Tories

Brexit Party for Robbie. He's from Stoke, after all.

xxxplool, down with the kids the street eh Brian?"Mr Eno said: "Because of what I do I have some sort of credibility with young people which means that they are probably willing to talk to me in a way they might not to others."nothing reaches out more to young people better than an old bastard 86% of them have probably never heard of!

The piece I posted says that two of the three households are Labour. Can’t be both of them. Eno supports Corbyn as calz said!

The Beckhams have a house each and Eno lodges with Robbie, for those with reading comprehension issues
― anvil, Sunday, 13 October 2019 17:53 (six years ago)
Has the MP ever considered the possibility that they're just saying they vote Labour to get rid of her? It could be like when they did a survey in where they asked Glaswegians if they would support England in the World Cup Finals and, supposedly, the majority said they would - when what probably happened was most of them when asked said, "Aye, right".

Corporate Welfare: Leading Brexiteer and No Deal supporter Sir James Dyson collected £5m of EU farming subsidies. He previously received UK taxpayer subsidy to develop electric car, then chose to manufacture in Singapore and later on deferred the project.https://t.co/HVeFwif5k5— Prem Sikka (@premnsikka) October 13, 2019

I can't find it now but I read a thing linked to on Twitter about Dyson's UK farms being v automated big US-style ecosystem destroyers and speculating that he may be hoping to buy up a lot more land if/when farms go bust post-Brexit and possibly enjoy freedom from EU ecosystem-preserving regulations etc bla
I know nothing of farming btw, as you can probably tell from my attempt to summarise

Brexit backing Dyson’s decision to move UK HQ to Singapore really highlights the kind of employer he is.Good thing our members at Numatic still make the classic Henry vacuum cleaners here in Britian.

I didn’t know that either calz, i only found it out recently & it was nice to know! We had one of those Vaxes that had a carpet shampooing feature (?) when I was a child & only got the Henry cos they were meant to be good. Anyway the moral of the story is fuck Dyson.
― gyac, Sunday, 13 October 2019 22:23 (six years ago)
I think because the only Henry vacs I used were 110v volt ones I associate them as non-domestic site gear. fuck Dyson, would rather use a hard bristle dustpan and brush than give a penneth to that fucking odious enemy of the people.

In an email on Thursday, Sir James Dyson confessed to employees that its “fantastic car” would never enter production, throwing 500 roles into uncertainty and marking a rare public climbdown from the inventor and company founder.The decision ends an audacious gamble from a British entrepreneur that might have cemented Sir James’s legacy as a risk-taking innovator and redefined his namesake business.
