[Val]

Have you heard Theresa May's GE anouncement?

Catch up, Val, I shopped this when she seized power in the first place.

So, back on topic (I do apologise), Darth May loves democracy so much that she will allow local Tory associations to choose any candidate that they want from shortlists of Remoaners hand picked by her.

And thanks to Gina Miller and the Supreme Court for establishing that the will of Parliament is supreme over that of the mere people, once we have an overwhelming Remoaner government elected on the basis of the sounds emerging from Sharia's face-hole, that's all she wrote for Brexit. It will be great news for 0-hour sweatshops and gang-masters though.

Ah, 'emergency rules'. It's OK, we promise that we'll only impose them if they're really reeeeeeally necessary, or if we feel like it.

As I'm always looking for the bright side, it occurs that we'll need to put the cotton mills back into production to provide the thread for this gargantuan stitch-up.

Labour MP's voting to chop off their own heads bemuses me.

The only idea I can come up with is that there's something major we don't know that Westminster does.

Or TMay has far too much goss via GCHQ on the pleb party.

Corbynites are genuinely deluded.

I see the BBC are already drumming up anti Brexit hatred again.

Jeremy Vines is discussing how disgruntled Remoaners can attack Brexit by voting for their most Remoaning candidate.

Al Beeb have been arguing that there's no need for them to even pretend to be neutral.

UKip grassroots site admits that are totally rekt, but suggest running on a very simple platform:

Fix immigration.
British law for all.
End foreign aid.

Let's see if whomever is pulling/cutting the strings at UKIP HQ goes for it, or whether it'll be more VAT-on-fish-and-chips and friendly-face campaigning outside mosques.


Speaking of which, here we go.

I know, right. It's so tiring voting when you've not eaten, let alone doing it two or three times.

62% UKIP
62% Labour
55% SNP

How can I 55% support the SNP? I can't even vote for them

Long term this is excellent news for Labour. A week ago they were stuck with Corbyn until 2020. Now he'll be gone on June 9th.

Rogerborg's point re: May using this to get 5 years' grace to water down Brexit and wait for it all to simmer down would get several "insightful" s if I could do that. It's a genuine possibility and, tbh, it'd suit me fine. Would be fun watching both extremes of the brexit battle not get what they want. Only downside would be a stronger UKIP, but the naughty side of me would like to see UKIP gain popularity in Farage's absence just to piss him off.

I don't think it's necessarily a case of voting for one person and one person only. But Corbyn, May, the libdem guy etc... each is the person that the party has put forward to say "this person represents us, this person speaks for us". That's the message to the proles.

Love or loathe Blair, he was a good speaker and came across as a fairly together guy*. Whereas Corbyn comes across as a weak lefty geography teacher and May comes across as a dictator in the making.


* watch him speak now and it's like he's been electro-shocked for 10 years while watching nothing but a Clockwork Orange. I guess that's what a lifetime of trying to pretend you're not responsible for tens of thousands of dead civilians does to you.
