It really is quite depressing They will probably shift once it is clear the Tories will form a new government. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 The Sun front page today is fantastic. Murdoch must be wondering how far he has to go before people stop paying money for him to call them stupid, as they lead with "Dont you know theres a bloody game on" and warning politicians to stop their carry on so that servile morons everywhere can send the wife off to the bingo and get drunk watching football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bob Mahelp Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Lots of battle metaphors flying around the Brexit nutcases this morning. The Daily Mail in its lead article sets the tone.....'negotiators sent into battle with white flags'.....there's not much honour in Johnson 'being second over the top'........the UK will have 'colonial status'......May will 'stand and fight for the country'......Johnson 'declares war on Chequers plan'. All that within the first paragraph. It's a rather frightening view into the mind of your average right-wing fanatic. Do people really see this as a 'conflict situation' ? What a pathetic, wee, parochial, backwards, inferior country the UK has become. Continually having the need to fight some kind of historical battles about something. Drag yourself into the 21st century, you utter c*nts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're an unpleasant mix of racist VL military fantasists who could barely hack the TA and pull-up-the-drawbridge baby boomer c***s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 There's a part of me that would like to see a hard Brexit. Let all these people who genuinly think it is in their interest to see the real effects. I reckon the disruption to the economy would impact far more severly on them than they realise. Pound falling, investments/pensions suffering, services depleted even more; maybe even house prices crashing (think of all that equity disappearing!!!). Of course the downside is that all the rest of us will suffer to and, as usual, those most affected will be the poor and vulnerable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Lambies Doos Posted July 10, 2018 Author Share Posted July 10, 2018 We need to put these petty squabbles aside. There are 11 brave men about to go into battle on foreign soil under the command of Field Marshal Southgate.

Inanimate Carbon Rod Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Sad thing is, if England do somehow win the World Cup it will be taken by many as a sign that Brexit is going to work.Ive got an English auntie who responded to some post before the brexit ref ‘if we can come together and win ww2 we can make brexit work’. Shes a moron but this is reflective of the mindset of many brexiteers, there is absolutely no logic in their belief. Its the same as the people in the parts of the UK like wales which benefit most from EU membership voting against it for some reason, do they really think that Westminster will actually give them anywhere near the same regional funding as the EU? Then the people who think Brexit will lead to better trade deals, does the fact big industry like Airbus, Rolls Royce, Jaguar/Landrover/BMW and many others not ring alarm bells? Even the basics of economy of scale suggest a bigger market will get a better trade deal, the concessions which we will be forced to accept for even a terrible trade deal with the US (like accepting inferior meat and poorer unsafe childrens toys etc) is anything but a good deal. Yet blue passports. Any person who still wants Brexit is a moron. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
