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

How many hours/wads of cash before the DUP caves?

Ooh Jo Swindon just described the deal as "fucking shit"

Is it established this is May's deal only worse for UK or at least NI? It gets Johnson hailed as statecraft legend by the media sewer for a while regardless.

surely there's no way he'll agree to Referendum 2: Gammon Boogaloo just to get the deal thru?

lol

Good thread with insights into XR:

The last time I did a thread about an XR action in my city being terrible for disabled people, I got a lot of abuse, but also several nice people telling me in good faith to try engaging with them.

And I don't really care what you think after reading your indecipherable nonsense on YouGov yesterday.

Well you could have told me this yesterday instead of letting me go on and on. Jeez.

How many hours/wads of cash before the DUP caves?

The Tories throwing the DUP under a bus after using them to stay in office since the election is fucking funny, I must admit.

Of course.

Nigel Farage backs extension and a general election over PM’s deal

haha some energy that

lol at nigel's butthurt

he's banging on about fishing rights (fuck off fishermen - you fucked yourselves) and then accusing boris of potentially committing that worst possible crime in polite brexiter society .. surrender!

won't be saying which seat he will contest in the GE he wants tho - log off coward

Boris's seat or gtf.

A lot of People's Vote tears.

Securing a compromise Brexit deal is a major negotiating achievement for Boris Johnson. I congratulate him. I seem to remember him saying the Benn Act would stop the EU making the necessary concessions. He was wrong about that. In fact it helped bring Brexiteers to their senses.

this guy made one of the most bafflingly ignorant documentaries (for a supposedly highly educated person)... so am not surprised by this

God, I miss the days when I didn't know who the DUP were and what they stood for

ahh, those sunny uplands where i was more stupid and more happy, how i wish i could return

When you think you're saying one thing but you're really saying "I'm a cock"

Yes, in the country I'm from there was, in my lifetime, a 40 year conflict where 3000 people died and I'm proud of the fact I know nothing about it.

... 30 years, I mean, lol.

@lucianaberger
13h
Please don’t tweet about how upsetting/awful it is that Dame @LouiseEllman and I have left @UKLabour

Cool. Will do.

OK the tweet continues admittedly but no need to see the rest really.

Sathnam Sanghera was the one who ran that dramatic recitation of Rivers of Blood, wasn’t he? Given old Enoch was an MP in NI at some point, you might think he’d know something.

Question: Could Corbyn trade an agreement that future trade agreements would be put to parliament, in exchange for voting for deal?

ffs this shitlord

@PARLYapp
@Jacob_Rees_Mogg
confirms on Saturday the PM will make a statement and MPs will then debate and vote on the deal or a no deal exit

One would imagine the Benn bill precludes that nonsense

lol I missed that C4 had a new IRA spokesperson on with a voiceover. Ffs at platforming this

Sadly, no helium was involved.

Honestly don't think enough has been made of the fact that the DUP during this crucial week met not with the farming community, business community or civic leaders but with the leaders of the UDA and UVF before coming to this decision. https://t.co/1W0Pa8Hwbw

A spokesman for the DUP said: "The party engages with a range of stakeholders about a range of matters on an ongoing basis in the interests of moving Northern Ireland forward."

yeah, no shit

Wot, no Orange Order or board of Rangers FC?

No more extensions, says Juncker

thanks jean-claude, with this rock and a hard place you're really spoiling us

I question his veracity

So the Tories shaft the DUP and the EU shafts Remainers. Trebles all round!

lol we're all gonna die

the wrong Cummings died today

Boris Johnson ends his political career as the longest serving Prime Minister in (what's left of) the UK's history. Huzzah!

No more extensions, says Juncker

― Frederik B, Thursday, 17 October 2019 bookmarkflaglink

Look who has been talking to Jacob

Not quite sure why Juncker is been going off on one here - I suppose he is trying to be "no delay from this side!", but if it doesn't pass parliament, or if it's going to take more time, there's 0.0% chance that the 27 will enforce a hard Brexit.

the man's a born showman, obv

Blootered, more like.

I don't believe there's a 0.0% chance that the 27 will enforce a hard Brexit. France has seen the bright side of Brexit (sole nuclear power in the EU, only EU member with a seat on the UN security council) (not to mention banks choosing Paris over London) and wants to get to that bright side as soon as possible if Brexit has to happen at all.

There isn't a 0% chance but the UK is still a big trading partner with the EU. The world economy is fragile and we don't what that kind of shock would do to the Euro area.

It’s priced in at this stage.
