This black lad on BBC was going to vote, but then he got high.
I love the Celtic fans hating the prospect of DUP in government. :harold:
The Union is safe, if nothing else.
This Labour nutter suggesting that they could get a Queen's Speech through the Commons. :harold:
That sort of talk is clearly just optics, and to increase the pressure on May. They're not going to come straight out and tell her to have at it.Quote:

If everyone falls into line and votes along the expected lines, then you'd get this:
Strong and Stable Government: 328
Coalition of Chaos: 314
Speaker: 1
IRA: 7
So you'd need 7-8 Tories/DUP to vote through the Corbyn Queen's Speech.
The right did set the precedent for this soiling itself over Gordon Brown attempting to do likewise, so whatever.
Exactly.Quote:

OH WAIT, that's for the good of the country, not the self interest politics we find ourselves with today. #CORB-IN
The collapsing Nats really have saved the country. Oh the irony.
When was that?Quote:

From the last election, and it still holds.
He's biased though, isn't he a jobbee jabber? Of course he doesn't like the DUP.Quote:

What the hell is a jobbee jabber, and isn't it okay to be biased against theocrats?Quote:

So it's taken a complete bumbling on one side and a very good bit of PR campaigning on the other side. Am I not allowed to be convinced? For shame you need to be a 'died in the wool' to not take criticism.Quote:

Try just using 'gay' next time.Quote:

My view has always been that the preservation of the Union trumps all. Corbyn wanted it broken apart through coercion. The DUP want to preserve it.Quote:

I bet Lord Buckethead hasn't lived in Maidenhead for the last five years.
Going by his syntax on Twitter I'm betting it's a student of some sort.
Think I might put 'running as a farcical MP' on my Bucket list. Seems fun.
Bloody hell, nearly got through a whole election without reposting this

Does your involvement in graphic design give you a blind spot for really shitty, unfunny, wit free pictures? Like how 'proper football men' take three years longer than the rest of us to spot when a player is finished.
The seethe on this forum when someone views a pic they don't find funny. You all read MJ's posts ffs.
John's seething.
That picture would be quite funny if it wasn't for the treason of including the probably Labour supporting Queen.
I bet Jez and Liz would get on pretty well. He'd show up for afternoon tea with a pot of his homemade jam and they'd have it on scones and it'd be lovely.
Her favourite PM was said to be Wilson, and she properly hated the blessed Margaret, so based on that I reckon she wants May dead.

Remains the best political satire image I've ever seen. Ever. I still laugh out loud. :drool:
I do like the Jez McMahon gif. It's the hat.
Aside from the real pictures of a man dressed as a Darth Vader bucket and a man dressed as a Fish Finger. But that's real stuff, rather than photoshopped by some prick with a degree in Twitter.
This is absolute horseshit from May. You can't do Brexit on this bollocks 'majority'.
Boris needs to issue a leadership challenge now, they all need to fall in behind him and then he needs to come up with some sort of genuinely unifying Brexit settlement that will get through Parliament. And probably stump up all that NHS money. Then he needs to call and win his own election, and only THEN can we start the negotiations.
He might be an absolute wanker, but only he has the charisma to pull it off.
I would rather ram a HARD BREXIT through and spend fifteen years under communist Labour than settle for a ponce-friendly Brexit.
Hard Brexit needed a bigger result. She basically won the election 52-48.
