    Watching PMQs and some MP has so little self respect, after Boris got made fun of by Corbyn, audibly shout "OWNED!" at him.

    I like the idea that, almost two years after the vote, someone somewhere is still utterly convinced by a media grid with things like 'JOHN MAJOR SPEECH' on it.

    We should counter this new EU 'negotiation paper' by suggesting the Irish leave the EU single market/customs union and join our common market instead. You know, just 'til we sort the rest out.

    It would probably make more sense, economically, than their idea.

    This is good. Man asks his remainer Twitter mates 'what--on a personal, emotional level--have we lost?' Some of the answers:

    'I cried for 3 days'
    'From the moment it was announced I felt an existential threat'
    'I keep waking up very confused and with a deep sense of existential dread, and then I realize why: the ridiculous and fraudulent referendum'
    'I am lucky to have homes in Scotland and France and those are where I now call "Home"'
    'We were on holiday in Spain and felt the same, and almost immediately felt like tresspassers - not that anyone there made us feel that way'
    'We had Ode To Joy played at our wedding'
    'It's as if the UK has a very serious life threatening condition - a cancer of its soul'

    And so on.

    The reason I voted Leave (and I did have to think long and hard about it) is that long term, the options are leave or enter a full political and economic union. The latter is as guaranteed to be a fascist disaster as anything I can think of, so we might as well leave before it's too late.

    For all I thought the referendum losing was the funniest thing ever to happen in British politics, a second referendum also losing would top it.

    It appears that the Conservatives sacked whoever did the design for the party conference after it all fell down and replaced them with a guy who's a dab hand at Powerpoint.



    Christ alive. At least make it red brick so the Prime Minister of the fucking country doesn't blend into the background rather than looking like she'd being bricked into a stately home, never to be seen again.

    It sounds like another great example of her and/or the idiots around her not understanding how markets work. Developers have an incentive to sit on land with planning permission attached. It's almost like the permissions are valued because they are so difficult to obtain, which, on a similar note, makes me wonder why people think council housing has a unique ability to just be whacked up wherever and whenever.

    Surely you aren't suggesting that the planning regs in this country are unnecessarily complex, arcane, and lorded over by a bunch of small-time arseholes?

    I'm sure anyone who's had to deal with them for any length of time will be right in here to disavow this quick smart.

    Everyone in East Hull Labour thinks he's a whopper and resent his family stitching the seat up for him (especially after their attempts to stitch it up for John Prescott's assistant), so lol at him and his gastric band.

    Some UKIP nutter is very angry about an interview with 9 year olds having 'childish answers' and that these children should have been GRILLED.

    lol at these MPs wanting Mark Zuckerberg to come and explain this data bullshit. They presumably don't have any powers over foreigners, but I looked this up a while ago and they can fine/imprison people for telling them to get fucked and refusing to take part. I would love to have seen Mike Ashley or somebody see how far he could push it and become a political prisoner.

    Deadly Dom is BACK, slamming the Facebook bullshit:

    Another problem with CC’s theory is it requires that you believe simultaneously that a) Mercer/Putin et al are so brilliant and powerful they could orchestrate this global conspiracy AND b) it fell apart because they’re so dumb they entrusted the Brexit arm of it to Banks and Wigmore who promptly blabbed the whole dastardly scheme on the record to CC by mistake.
    lol also at references to 'Jolyon the lawyer'.

    I was thinking we were due one, and sure enough some pithy journalist tweeted onto my timeline earlier: 'Funny how the man supposedly behind the brilliantly simple Brexit messaging can't communicate in less than 8,000 words'.

    Yeah mate, your job as a journalist is very important and you are extremely talented.

    And yes, all I have thought at any point in this Cambridge Analytica story is that it's only a story because they were doing it for Trump and whoever. Those who continue to do exactly the same thing for liberal-centrist concerns are praised and even going on the news as pundits regarding this.

    People need to realise they cannot have both Facebook and privacy, once you put stuff in a public domain it's out there. If people want privacy then unfortunately the internet will have to be closed down.

    At the end of that one he claims Leave would piss a second referendum, and who am I to doubt him, so let's call it on.

    There is a definite undertone to that end (or perhaps something more overt than that) in a lot of what he writes.

    I reckon you probably will end up with another one, which would launch the lols into the stratosphere almost regardless of result, but particularly if remain (they'd probably want a better team name next time) managed to lose again.

    Yeah, but the negotiations are only an attempt to continue the status quo forever, and when that turns out to be impossible one or both sides is going to agitate for an actual resolution.
