Rayvin 5176 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Yeah... depressing state of affairs really. The best we can hope I guess is that Brexit more or less falls apart of its own accord. Â I started wondering the other day, what the minimum time frame would be for us to leave, realise it's fucking shit, and decide to go back in again. Obviously assuming we were even allowed.

ewerk 30258 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Yeah but if we do that we definitely aren’t getting our rebate again. We may be allowed to avoid being part of Schengen if they’re feeling generous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5176 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 The rebate and all our advantages are already off the table now, even if we turn around and head back in pre-Brexit, right? Â It's so fucking stupid, it really is. As if we're not going to be back there in 20 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30258 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Nah, if they allow us to stay then everything will be as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21289 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Yep, this was confirned quite recently. We're looking over the precipice. We can take a step back, turn around, and go home, or we can jump.  I've always tried to have faith we'd do the former, but am increasingly becoming less confident.

Christmas Tree 4685 Posted September 10, 2018 Author Share Posted September 10, 2018  The Boundary Commission has released its final recommendations for cutting down the number of Parliamentary constituencies from 650 to 600 and it’s bad news for the Absolute Boy with his Islington North constituency getting the chop.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30258 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 I'm not sure that's such a bad thing. Criminal tax trials are incredibly long and expensive and there's always a chance HMRC will lose. Coming to an agreement on the tax due seems like a much more efficient way of doing things to me.

Alex 34836 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Caught a bit of the One Show last night. They were asking people in Nuneaton what they thought of Boris Johnson. One bloke said he (i.e. the bloke being asked the question) was right wing so he liked him but he didn't know much about his policies but he did like that thing he said recently about the burqa. That's the mentality you're dealing with arguing against Brexit, Tory austerity, CT, etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 5176 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I mean, was the expectation that Russia would hold its hands up and confess? Why does anyone even care. We already kicked their diplomats out, and our government isn't going to take punitive measures against their rich, so who the fuck cares what Putin has to say about it.
