Maybe... But that won’t be forever.

The last president said we'd go to the back of the line in terms of trade deals if we left the EU. Then there was Bush... But yeah, they've definitely got our back.

Not good news for those who expected this to split the leave vote

Brexit Party disarray as Nigel Farage loses 20 election candidates - and a donor

 

[kit1982]

The end of Nigel Farage is in sight... I always thought I'd enjoy this moment more.

 

[Dark Raven]

Didn't Farage say he's not running as an MP for the general election?

 

[jolldan]

Johnson compares Corbyn to Stalin no really

 

[Brian Braddock]

Meanwhile we have Jacob Rees-Mogg and Andrew Brigden saying that the Grenfell victims were to blame for their own deaths due to the fact that they didn't have the intelligence to ignore the advice of the Fire Service, who said to stay in the building.

Maybe it's time to start a 3rd party?

Some people seem to think the Lib Dems are that option, I personally think they are going to get hammered back to reality because the majority of people remember what happened last time they elected a Lib Dem leader because of a pledge he made and then pretty much immediately backtracked afterwards.

They Brexited the Brexit party.

Twitter quote of the day:

'If Boris Johnson were to punch a baby, James Cleverly would appear on TV explaining why the baby had it coming'

I meant for Farage to start a 3rd party after UKIP and the Brexit Party.

 

[jolldan]

Haha not a fan of either guy but I found this rather funny

 

[jolldan]

Pet hate.
Always said it should be mandatory here like it is in Australia.

Boris Johnson's Conservative party has received cash from 9 Russian donors named in a suppressed intelligence report

British Trump!

 

[jolldan]

Lib Dems seem t be softening on working with Boris and the Conservatives again.

Also I see Priti Patel is helping change the cold callous Tory image

See American Progressives are pushing Corbyn as the UK's answer for Bernie.

 

[Brian Braddock]

To any of my American friends out there who wants to know - Corbyn is genuinely an honest, well-meaning man of the people who seeks fairness and equality for all and is currently the victim of an absolutely outrageous smear campaign from the right; he's the polar opposite of Johnson who's an elitist thug that lies, cheats and bullies on a daily basis.

[jolldan]

Honestly I think this will massively come back to bite Corbyn in the backside. Frankly I think Corbyn is the best pick of a bad bunch but I genuinely wonder how many people will be put off by statements like this. Im usually one for an option of early release (if it wasn't a violent crime) but whatever way you try and paint it going and carrying out an act of terrorism is about one of the worst things you can possibly do as a person and I don't think you should have any chance of early release on that.

Goddamnit Corbyn, you ****ing fool.

 

[jolldan]

A giant sign has appeared on a slag heap in Midsomer Norton which declares: 'Get Mogg Out'.

The sign appeared at the end of last week and appears to reflect the sentiment among some constituents towards the divisive character. It is not yet known who is the behind this creation which sits atop the mound of waste soil. Mr Boraston tweeted the photo and confirmed in another tweet that he was not behind messgae.

Goddamnit Corbyn, you ****ing fool.

To be fair he did say they need to do a full reexamination of how the Parole Board functions and handles shortening of sentences.
