I need to be honest here and say that whilst I have a strong distaste for the DUP and what they stand for, they have maintained their position, something which I'm sure has surprised and disappointed some proponents of Brexit. By their own lights however, to the DUP Brexit represents a clear and present threat to their raison d'etre, the union, which I think a lot of folk on the mainland overlooked.

As pointed out before, it's now obvious that the DUP are more committed to Loyalism than to Brexitism. They'll be far more interested in Labour's version of Brexit....a custom union which aligns the whole of the UK to the EU....than any of the half arsed Tory plans which could lead to Norn Iron being treated differently. I'm sure May thinks that was a billion quid well spent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see Dennis Price bumping off all the EU Commissnioners and taking power. Bit like what Tony B. Liar wants to do. Allegory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieThomas Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Wee fat red faced man promises the UK will wreak havoc in the EU whilst opining that it needs to leave the EU as it holds no power. Schrodinger's dipshit. Spoiler Someone should probably also pull the thick mutant aside and explain to him what "trojan horse" actually means - preferably with illustrations and a claw hammer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted not often, and this applies to others too, but how can someone get up and go to a polling station specifically to vote for that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember people looking into her banking background before and finding that the titles she was giving herself were false and her authority was nowhere near what it was stated. Her family were very well powerful and got her jobs after struggling on her degree and they then donated huge amounts of money to get herself selected as an MP. Her biggest strength is that she's that thick that she's managed to blunder herself up the ladder in politics by being so sure of herself. People like Boris and Farage are opportunistic and know when they are bullshitting but it's unreal how detached from reality she is when she tries to speak about even very simple concepts. I saw her on Marr on Sunday and when asked about being so much worse off etc if leaving with "no deal", her response was basically a shrug of the shoulders and the old half wits line of, "But we will be taking back control", "We will be in charge of our own destiny". Honestly, what can you say to that............. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition to the clichéd "Brexit means Brexit" shite he spouts, the fact that he also looks like Penfold from Danger Mouse really adds to the Cartoon Character vibe: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
