Another new Brexit thread

[aguerrrroooooooooooo]

Pales into insignificance against the billions in lost growth (Treasury figures).

Heard that our economy has had 66bn wiped off because of brexit apparently, would need to verify it though

Just sod off with the treachery slurs.

I fucking hate that - the idea that somehow the way you voted in the Referendum was a test of a persons patriotism is the lowest of the low. All these people calling MP's and the like traitors and so on is pathetic but thats a way of seeing how Brexit has riven our society and weaponised words.

tbh Vic, you don’t strike me as someone who has the same command of street vernacular as me or @George Hannah do.

I think I'm quite au fait with the local argot.

probably true - just checked down the back of my sofa and its not fallen down there.

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

35 million people ended up voting about an issue they never knew existed.

Apart from you, obviously ;-)

I heard WWIII had wiped off 66 billion people because of Brexit. Needs verifying though...

You can't verify it. Car industry - it's all down to electric cars. Plausible deniability for Brexiters for ever.

Here you go, this is from April so it'll be more now

Time for you to verify yours ;)

I can confirm this is correct.

Basically the deal needs 325 votes to pass.
You do the maths with the MPs but the DUP currently have 10 seats and if they all vote against it it's going to be tough for them to get it passed, though not impossible

I understand that, but my point is should they even be able to complain or protest given the massive bung they had and accepted?

 

[bluethrunthru]

Is it right that the DUP can have a major say in this after the whopping big pay off they had to make the Tory govt float back a few years ago?

Yep - the future of 67m people could be in the hands of people who believe in creation and that homosexuals will burn in hell but don't believe in dinosaurs.....

I think you and I are on the same page

Yes but we’re taking back control so it doesn’t matter.

Verification form that august source, " S&P Global Ratings analyst Boris Glass"
There is no rejoinder to such a damning testament.

Argot, not Argoyt.

Watching Question Time now.
Best comedy on tv at the moment.

I’m starting to think you are all genuinely fucked for a long time to come.
This is only the start of your woes.

We’re fucked too but I don’t think our society will be as broken as yours.

I honestly don’t know how anyone can take this cabinet on trust.
In fact I can never see how ordinary working folk in Britain vote Tory ever but I supposed we over here have a long history with them and not trusting their word is a default position.
British self harm in that regard baffles me.

Not the usual "Just get it done" audience. Three people liked the deal. BP rep was noisy (and no-one asked him about Farage saying we could be like Norway).

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

The DUP really do need someone in and around the leadership who projects as a chilled-out entertainer.

What did the BP rep have to say?
