May isn't changing her deal because she's psychopathic. She won't let go of power either. If we're going to no-deal, lets no-deal quickly.

They haven't been doing anything for two whole years so what the gently caress are they going to do with a few extra months? It's just a complete farce. Brexit: It's just a complete farce

Transport industry, pallet makers, logistics companies and UK government: Ohh, hey, we have a problem with pallets, it's kind of a big deal. Random Quitling: Well I'm in the transport industry and i've got lots of pallets so this is fake news. When Gove said we've had enough of experts, what he meant was that stupid people don't understand what an expert is.

Grey Hunter posted:Yeah, the alliance side of things was always viewed with distrust - we needed to get to 0.0 space, so needed to be in one, but hell if we never gave any alliance we were in more than the bare minimum Still more politcall sense than 75% of the Tory party. If you want to leave the Eura trade hub and make it out into WTO-space, you need a plan better than ‘hit the warp button and see what happens’.

Gonzo McFee posted:Jess Philips is being broken against the rocks as she begins to realise that the Tories aren't the natural party of power and that they're all just a bunch of posh chancers too deluded to realises that they're chancers. Probably what has broken her is the realisation that no matter how much she toadies up to them, she'll never really be part of their club.

That's all she's focused on. She doesn't care if it's a good or bad thing, or if it should or shouldn't happen. She's been hired for one last job and she's gonna see it done So is she actually incompetent? Like she shouldn't be PM, yeah, but that's everyone else's problem. As far as ramming this through no matter what, fending off all attackers, she's doing pretty well? There's no style or finesse to it, turns out you don't need that though - you can just lie and stonewall and people will go ok let's see how this new development plays out

Jose posted:it might slow down climate change assuming we don't all die The threat of nuclear winter (and global fallout death) is kinda overstated since improvements in weapon and delivery system design meant that people aren't lobbing multiple megatons in the general direction of cities. India and Pakistan have, combined, less than 200 warheads, none of which are thought to be over 100kt yield - if they all let them off at once it's still less megatonnage than the Tsar Bomba or Ivy Mike, and because of course they're all much smaller weapons they'd put much less material into the upper atmosphere than either of those tests. It'd gently caress their poo poo up pretty bad, and climbing Everest would have some new and exciting challenges* for a few years afterwards, but the global effects would be basically zero. * Which reminds me of one interesting "solution" to climate change - if we were to bury all of the world's warheads under the Himalayas and let them off at once, it'd have several beneficial effects. First, the dust released into the stratosphere would lower temperatures in the northern hemisphere for several years. Second, the large amount of granite uncovered would weather much more quickly than the unbroken Himalayas, removing a large amount of CO2 from the atmosphere in the medium-long term (the raising of the Himalayas was one contributer to the last Ice Age through that effect). Third, killing a billion or so people would probably help a bit. Alright they didn't say that last one but it seemed to be there between the lines.

I know nobody likes SG but you're being a bit of an idiot here. I'm as sick of Brexit as everyone else but if No Deal is going to happen regardless (which isn't a given) then the longer it's delayed the longer civil servants have to prepare and mitigate the worst effects. Stuff like the pallets issue only coming to light now should make that clear. Also someone said the EU were the ones who could dictate the length of the extension - if that's true I don't think they'd accept just a couple of months, because it's obvious nothing would get done towards a workable deal in that time.

Stuff like the pallets issue only coming to light now should make that clear. Not to mention that if the worst-case stuff with broken supply lines, food shortages, lack of vital medicines and so on comes to pass following a no-deal Brexit, giving people an extra month or two to prepare is probably going to save lives. If the choice is between chaos and woe now or chaos and woe in two months time, why are you so keen on the former?
