"When I was a girl, around 12 or 13, I had a fantasy that I'd grow up to marry Captain Scarlet, but he'd be busy fighting the Mysterons so I'd cuckold him with the sexiest people I could think of - Nigel Mansell, Pat Sharp and Mr. Blobby."

It was a bit of a joke about the city of London corporation and it's business vote.

I think the equivalent here is everyone thinking that they're middle class. It's been a stroke of genius insofar as destroying collective bargaining powers.

I get the 'temporarily embarassed millionaires' thing, but I don't get why people who think they'll 'make it' one day vote to destroy things that increase their chances of making it before rather than after.

If you start burning the ladder now, you won't even need to pull it up after you when you reach the top!

Jews fleeing the Holocaust are not in any way comparable to North Africans, who don't flee genocide but want to enjoy the social welfare systems of Northern Europe.
Looks like this Boris character (as someone not really that interested in UK internal politics I must say he looks a bit like your version of Donald Trump mixed with Chris Christie) did not follow EU politics all that closely last year and is following a referendum strategy that I would like to call "The Tsipras" - say "no" because that will make the others give you everything you want.

What the gently caress is wrong with EuroPol thread?

Also how did UKMT end up as a thread that regards Marx as a bit centrist and EuroPol ended up as a garbage fire?
