bojo is king, brexit is on, stuff is fvcked, tomorrow starts here -- new govt new thread new battle

oh ffs only put my telly on to watch a movie and first thing I see is fawning Starmer hagiography on ITN news

Rebecca Long-Bailey has won the endorsement of the Fire Brigades Union

ha I'll have to ask my dad (retired fireman) about that. tbh I doubt he even knows who she is, he's not exactly politically engaged, which is a good thing really, given some of his, er, opinions. but he was always loyal to the union

I was thinking they might have backed Nandy because there are plenty of Blue Labour gobshites in their ranks! but fair play to them because every other bunch of cunts is backing Starmer to the point of exasperation!

I was talking to a very drunky nurse friend of mine this afty and she was "RLB or GTF" so the system works imo

plenty of Blue Labour gobshites in their ranks

tbh my dad probably makes them look like... RLB I guess!

I reckon in the racist (dead) dad stakes I'm up there. But his racism was the kind of ingrained Kerry racism that is probably way to the right of Blue Labour and Hitler!

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/jan/30/boris-johnson-tories-left-economy-labour

This is so lame. Totally underplays the potential impact of Brexit and climate change on public finances. Plus again as per tweet I posted last night there will be cuts.

Not to say that Lab should be complacent but I am not seeing the left in Labour as taking anything for granted.

tell disabled people on ESA or people in foodbanks or people living tents the economy has shifted to the left stupid fucking establishment lackey Graun cunt

imagine the spiteful lunatics who actually place an order for that brexit shite.

xposts

People in foodbanks who voted Tory might well agree though.

that's why the dictatorship of the (shit-brained) proletariat was such a necessity!

shop conservatives

hardest agree

I'd really, really be careful with this narrative. Especially in the context of this https://t.co/ZzaqCnOfI1 and this https://t.co/d8ckDDdrdU

A rhetorical end to austerity is dangerous precisely because it gets positive headlines whilst an enfeebled state becomes the new normal. https://t.co/JtSI4FjXCd pic.twitter.com/u158Ka3ebz

Alex Sobel doesn't just have shit taste in music it seems, he also seems to be quite cordial with the more respectable end of the malthusian sterilise-the-poor eco-fash lobby! Disappointing tbh because he seemed like one of the good ones.

Britain is leaving the European Union tomorrow.

At least Remain/PV achieved their primary goal .. it'll be reet!

If that goal was to get Andre fucking Rieu at #1 on the charts they've succeeded alreet ffs

no it was to make sure tories are at #10 forever.

Double whammy.

If that goal was to get Andre fucking Rieu at #1 on the charts they've succeeded alreet ffs

tbf Andre Rieu is the most pan-european artist I can think of, little old ladies love him across the continent. it may not be pretty but we must not avert our eyes.

Ha, that's fair I suppose!

sbush:

Boris Johnson will tell the European Union that he is willing to accept border checks on British goods after Brexit next week, the Telegraph’s Gordon Rayner reveals. Which is a lot like saying that I will “tell” my local restaurant that I am willing to pay them money to bring me food: yes, that’s the point of the enterprise.

no it was to make sure tories are at #10 forever.

A lot of people worked very hard for this to be fair, a cross-party effort from both parties.

Brexit is happening tomorrow and we are finally hearing from the government what it means in concrete terms. Here is their updated travel advice for next year. Big changes for travellers and business in 11 months’ time. https://t.co/v3cd0ncSNg

RLB now has more trade unions than Starmer

Well spotted! (no pun intended)

that lucky 5th form GCSE art pupil who won the Farage portrait competition will be trying to track it down and burn all evidence of its existence in a few years!

Music will be a mixture of Progressive Trance, Hard, House and Old skool. AC-DC and The Who - WE WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN. ;-) Not forgetting some Land of Hope and Glory

aesthetically related (contains scrutonthink):

detail from Speer's model of Germania Halifax Piece Hall!

can't be doing with any manifesto for beauty which suggests Poundbury as an example

my granny was in a home not far from there - all those chunky square buildings topped with triangles and livened up by a smattering of semicircular windows and arches, like they were assembled by a toddler with a bag of wooden blocks

there is a big McDonald's right opposite, which seems both architecturally fitting and also pleasingly likely to have caused rage and horror when it sprang up

I will get this off my chest once because hey.

A v good and dear ilxor chum has some of the meltiest Toriest cunts of Facebook friends and the special cunt that defended Scruton on the grounds that he was lovely to east European dissidents and only racist because he was alzheimered up and made a valuable contribution to the philosophy of aesthetics is a fucking cretin and a fascist apologist of the worst fucking melt kind, Scruton was a fucking stain in every aspect of his laughable shit career, come friendly bombs and fall on Poundbury

wow that was good like coughing up a lung

maybe do 90s indie loving music journalists and their entitled middle class Blair fandom next

my proudest moment on Twitter this year was getting blocked by Applebaum for clowning her comments on Scrotum by suggesting his books that were sent into the Eastern Bloc in the 80's were used as shit roll!

*and the music journalist frog pursed his wide mouth as if eating a lemon and replied in a very tiny voice "haha i hate indie" *

my poundbury story is that they failed to design its streets with modern refuse lorries in mind -- they're too wide to negotiate the corners or something -- so all the well heeled inhabitants must crossly wheel their bins all the way to the some nearby dorchetster main street every week. this was told me by someone at the printers of the magazine i then worked for, which was based in dorchester, along with a great deal of amusing locals-hate-locals we-voted-to-fuck-with-wigan type schadenfreude.

I kind of think aesthetics is an utterly bullshit object of philosophical inquiry but maybe I'm open to dissuasion. Actually rather than bombing Poundbury we Shd just make Meades its Gauleiter

A v good and dear ilxor chum has some of the meltiest Toriest cunts of Facebook friends

I've unfollowed this person because I don't need to see that shit tbh

Name names.
