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

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

I've got one of the obnoxious ones with a face on it

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. They’ll help clean up this Brexit mess ... pic.twitter.com/HB1FSOeiGK

proud henry owner

lol i posted that literally while my foot is rested on our henry, without realising

xxxp
why gulags happened etc...

Used to use a Henry when I did house-bashing to suck up all the brick, concrete, possibly sometimes asbestos particles that the apprentice rubble sweeper would miss!

pretty solid is a henry. I always go for bottom of the line Hoovers just out of habit really, fully knowing it isn't the best choice.

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.

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.

lol fuck risky prestige projects that require going toe to toe with global competitors when you can sit on yr money and go scrap-thieving over the wreckage of domestic industries, picking the scraps of meat off the freshly buried corpses etc

worth listening to radio 4’s “the corrections” this week on the carbonara case. the times is a rag

we have a henry too, looks like the bastard offspring of mr blobby and the homepride flour guy

brb gonna start a ‘slashfic u wanna read’ thread

xxp
I noticed Trevor Phillips was quick to register his outrage on the carbonara case, perfect Islamophobic pc gone mad narrative might have sounded a little bit suspiciously made up bollox/on the nose if it wasn't exactly the type of shit he lives for!

if labour are moving to a “2nd ref first” position will it not be super easy for BJ to paint labour as genuinely seemingly frit and incapable ?

I mean, he's been trying that on since they correctly refused to give him an election a month ago, it's not really sticking.

labour are going to do what they decided at conference iirc

The Guardian are reporting a rift between most of the shadow cab and Corbyn's office, which is posting as they usually do.

the CBI just posting as they usually do as well, cos think of how poor shareholders and corporate shills like Angela Smith will fare under Corbynism.

Is the Queen wearing her EU hat today or wut

full face paint iirc

brb gonna add to the ‘slashfic u wanna read’ thread

Hmm

Britain's Home Office neither confirms nor denies it has identified sites to use as internment camps in the event of a no-deal Brexit, saying it needs a "safe space to develop ideas".

look concentration camps are just one of the united kingdom's many historic inventions and we should respect our history by refusing to rule out expanding our existing suite of detention centres in the future, perhaps to provide temporary accommodation to people of interest in case of unexpected events

brb gonna add to the ‘slashfic u wanna read’ thread

henry and hetty have never ever done it

probably best changing the subject re: proposed UK concentration camps and issuing some mealy mouthed hypocritical condemnations of Xi's latest human rights transgressions and then adding some played out fairy tale bollox about how the UK has always been a bastion of tolerance and freedom ...

Hmm

I was reading thru the potential proposals in the Queen's Speech and if the Tories win an election on that manifesto I swear I'll just kill myself

I was thinking the same before election '17, not joking either!

Obv now there is a Britannia unchained gov in waiting, they might save some of us the job.

ironically, britannia can only be unchained by locking up half the country

Transport minister Chris Heaton-Harris said travellers also needed to “do their bit” too. He said:

"We want residents in Kent and hauliers travelling from across the EU to be reassured that there are robust plans in place to deal with any disruption in the event of a no-deal Brexit.

We now need everyone to do their bit. Whether you are travelling to see family, heading to work or transporting vital goods around the country, please check before you travel to ensure you know what to expect and have the right documents when heading to the border."

Fuck expecting people to "do their bit". Cheeky cunt.

we need everyone to do their bit by being prepared to be stuck in their cars for up to six days on motorway heading into dover

also, they should fully expect to be disappeared to a cargo container on the isle of wight for an indeterminate period if they choose to travel without their passport, birth certificate, driving licence, netflix login and a set of crisp £10 bills to bribe border officials

The local press is starting to raise awareness that Kent's essentially going to be turned into a vast holding site for lorries - though being Kent they're also playing up the angle that the holding site will be rife with gangs, drugs, etc, etc.

mediocre club cricketers

hops

gotta go to the West Midlands next spring, hope you have all this sorted by then. can bring a can of human flesh to offer to the bandits if needed.

I gather Dennis Skinner heckled by naming his favourite Phil Collins song (it's a good one tbfttlexitlad)

sussudio is a weird heckle but fair play to the lad all the same

You can't hurry, love.

Good catch!

LOOOOL knew that pic of Corbyn grimacing (the camera person was about to trip over a thing, apparently) would wind up here.

Please check before travelling by reading the absolutely zero useful information the government has put out. An excellent idea and one I wish I'd thought of

The inlaws intend to come over from Ireland at Christmas, in a caravan, possibly with a dog, and all the information says is "check before travelling", "check with your vet 4 months before travelling" - well, we don't have 4 months, and I don't think asking a vet here or there is going to provide any useful information yet

this is less interesting than "will we still have food by Christmas" and "will my mother still be alive if she can't get her big box of medical supplies from the chemist every month" but it's all just more layers of fun, it's brilliant, thank you Tory government

+BREAKING+

EU leaders have reached internal agreement to potentially offer Britain a 9-12 month Brexit extension.
