Away with you, and take your logic with you.

It's a long extension, a GE, a revocation, and a lot (and when I say "a lot", I mean "a fucking lot, multiplied by a massive shitload") of whining and wailing and gnashing of teeth about ARE CUNTRY and ARE DEMOCRUSY and TAKIN BAK CUNTROL, but at least we'll still have an economy of sorts. The wildcard is of course the new political party. They're currently called Change UK, but I'd expect that to... (•_•) ( •_•)>⌐■-■ (⌐■_■) ...change. YEAAAAAAAAAAH

But he also said that some sort of "unity government" was required to get through this. The clip didn't say how that would work. This AM the BBC news had a decent report that said that the Tories were basically split in two (hard Brexit, no deal, forward into the breech; soft Bexit, customs union, other economic arrangements, a no-deal would be a catastrophe, etc.), and it was impossible to square the circle. And that's been obvious for years, but May just kept plodding along. What wasn't said was why the EU would go along with a customs union without all the other stuff that EU members who are in that have to go along with (as I understand it). Hmm... Kinda like Turkey, maybe (I see that that customs union doesn't apply to agricultural products)?? But since Turkey wants in the EU, it's not a good comparison. Bah, it's a mess. It's clear that the Tories can't pass anything, and the DUP isn't helping. There needs to be new elections or they need to scrap the whole thing (which they should do anyway) until they can come up with something that works (which would be never as long as Ireleand and N. Ireland share a border). Good luck. Cheers, Scott.

Most of them never even considered the impact to NI whilst they were painting their (most likely Russian funded) lies on buses during the campaign. From over here, it seems to me that Brexiteers and their supporters have a whole lot in common with our Republican Party and the 41% who blindly support Trump. bcnu, Mikem It's mourning in America again.
