UK Politics

If they can't make the EU cave, they will make them the enemy in the interim.

Latest solution being suggested from the brits seems to be for Ireland to temporarily leave the single market and abide by UK rules.

Good luck with that!

Ireland should just merge with Britain again and its problem solved. I can't see anything wrong with this idea.

Or give Northern Ireland back and return to just being Britain. Nothing wrong with that idea either! Politics is fun.

 

[Jer]

And how could I overlook it, Britain could also Brexit this whole sovereignty business and become provinces of a new Great Ireland. The UK is no longer part of the EU, but its former citizens retain all the benefits of EU membership! Win-win...?

 

[LooseCannon]

I think the squabbles between the increasingly progressive Irish and the regressive DUP supporters would be hilarious, unless they were deadly, then it would just be terrible.

I can't help feeling there's some very irresponsible stuff being said and done in the name of scoring cheap and short lived populist publicity wins alone.

You have just defined Boris Johnson way of acting with this sentence.

Edit: The buffoon needs to score cheap populist wins so he can continue seeing himself as a great statesman. In reality, he is just a deluded piece of upper class shit.

An obvious advantage of this proposal would be not having the DUP in the House of Commons.

Due to DUP supporting the Conservatives, it would also immediately lead to an election.

If that means a couple of generations without another Tory government, I am all for it!

Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well

Melton Mowbray pork pie makers and No 10 clash over Johnson claim

The humble Melton Mowbray pork pie is at the centre of a political dispute about British exports.

Boris no stranger to pork pies, I'd imagine, both the delicacy and the rhyming slang

 

[Black Wizard]

Pork pies are far too working class for Eton educated Boris Johnson.

 

[srfc]

They are an initiation ritual into the Bullingdon club. First you fuck a dead pigs mouth, then you drag the stone of shame to the top of Mount Springfield and then in the final insult you have to eat working class food.

 

[Deleted member 7164]

Oh no, the working class food.

The government is going to ask the Queen to suspend parliament so it can force No Deal through. Not good.

 

[The_7th_one]

what would happen if the Queen says no?

 

[LooseCannon]

She isn't supposed to say no.

I see President von Hindenberg has dissolved the Reichstag, I mean the Queen has prorogued Parliament
