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

i bet "over the edge" DUP folks go much more puce than the primest of Yorkshire Rotary club gammon, glowing puce!

It's more a violent shade of Orange.

Gammon a l'Orange

CBI shit is beautiful because there hasn't been a Labour party that's put the fear of god in those cunts since forever

incidentally, many years ago I used to often deal with Terry Yorath at work. He's the most gammon looking motherfucker i've ever met, and a deeply unpleasant arrogant twat to boot.

Also there aren't enough Remoaners flocking to Lib Dems that would hand lots of seats to the Lib Dems.

There might be in some middle class Remainiac areas and, anyway, it could still depress the Labour vote.

Like I said I am sure there are a few Lab/Lib Dem marginals but from what I am picking up there are higher numbers of Tory/Lib Dem marginals.

No doubt there will be a depression of the vote but I think Remoaners that I am talking about will go to the Greens - which to me is one more reason why that Labour candidate won't be voted off.

*Green as much as Lib Dems

"we are unable to provide a breakdown of the £196bn figure as our members do not feel comfortable doing this..."

We are, however, more than comfortable for any lazy hacks to use this figure, go Boris.

that cbi thing is mostly about cost of re-nationalising the trains.

how is the stopping of the current rail franchise model, mentioned in the recent queen's speech, not the same thing?

fwiw I was responding to the suggestion that the Lib Dem vote would suffer more than the Labour vote if Boris managed to cobble together a deal - I totally disagree with that, I reckon the Lib Dems would benefit from both the Tories and Labour.

Idk Tom what is the LibDems brexit policy this week?

Bollocks to it iirc.

i saw an oddly sweaty-looking swindon being interviewed on bbc breakfast as i was leaving the house this morning and she was pushing for a second ref - weirdly no mention of revoke

revoke A50 is playing bridge with lord lucan rn

after all that fanfare for it at their conference

“BALLOTS TO BREXIT!!”

Cobblers to Corbyn. Balls to Boris. The LD manifesto writes itself.

it's something when a single issue party can't give any clarity on that position!

is calling jo swinson jo swindon a deliberate thing?

nope it’s autocorrect

see also: having to delete the apostrophe out of Lib Dems EVERY TIME

jo swindon is her one true name, speaking it diminishes her occult power

like beloved ilx comrade karl malone, i never make typos

196 billion? Johnson can pledge/bung that before breakfast.

No one has the faintest idea what she looks like so it might have been someone else

it's quite confusing what with 'swindon' being the surname of jezza's arguably most-beloved twitter attack hound

her and that ilk of nominally left twitter are so shit!

and a lot of that type are CW apologists or reactionary Labour Right tools.

i don't mean blatantly labour Right, but it's under the surface of much of their shitposting.

"I totally disagree with that, I reckon the Lib Dems would benefit from both the Tories and Labour."

Are the Lib Dems getting hold of Lambeth or something?

certainly this is the first time that boris johnson has found himself in hot water over consent

Consent, not customs, is the sticking point between Johnson and the DUP now, according to a government source

Re that JessPhillips/AOC tweet. One of my colleagues has stated similar before. He used the word 'bolshy' and I think maybe 'ballsy'

who gives a fuck about ideology, the only important thing is appearing 'badass' to people for whom politics is entertainment

yeah, there's a lot of problematic content in that one very short tweet right enough

freeman's twitter handle is clue enough as to her value as a person

presumably she's on the Spiked team now

I know J Phillips is content seen as low hanging fruit on here, but jesus that quip about filling no 10 Downing st with Ikea furniture as an authentocrat of the ppl statement!

I can't keep up today but I need to lol J Phillips

i hadn't heard about that so i looked it up and found this from the same interview, which... *shudder*

“I do want to do Strictly,” she added. “I’m not going to make any bones about that. I wouldn’t ever do it while I’m still a politician though.

"I would rather be the Prime Minister then go on Strictly, but I don’t see why I can’t be the first ex-Prime Minister to do it. I think there is an opening. Not in a Theresa May way - I can actually dance."

publically crowing about planning to fill downing street with mass-produced stuff from a multibillion-dollar foreign company rather than eg sustainably-produced furniture handmade in the uk seems pretty revealing about her priorities

and she talks like IKEA is cheap, it's like over a hundred quid for a basic kitchen table ffs!

but her epic clapbacks tho

BREAKING: two senior EU sources say the main stumbling block to a deal has been removed with the DUP accepting the latest proposals on consent... Optimism a deal can now be done...

scoop!

can you move stumbling blocks with bales of cash?

Look I don't want to be a misogynist but Jess is dregs

why u hate women smdh

I'm saving all my misogynistic contempt for when her zany sitcom starts on the bbc.

Somebody called Tom McTague (no, seriously) contradicting Tony Connelly's tweet.

Tom McTague wrote betting the house, which is great, but he is a total prick about/to Irish people.

aye good book that, typical English cunt tho!

irish name, english attitude!
