I would blow Dane Cook posted:If bee it is a disaster will Scotland leave the U.K.? I don't understand this question. Edit: the answer is possibly. Scotland might also leave the UK if Brexit isn't a disaster. Or it might not if it is or it isn't. Scotland being part of the UK isn't contingent on Brexit occurring or not, or what Brexit ends up being. Pissflaps fucked around with this message at 01:24 on Jan 2, 2017 |

 lol, "People like me", I wonder what that means. I wish I knew what the gently caress is going to happen post Brexit button pushing but pre it actually happening. Pretty worried that staying in the UK is going to be difficult at best. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

the best thing about the FM implementation is if I recall correctly it randomly selects on of 3 possible brexit scenarios, soft, medium and hard with differing levels of work permit and visa issues depending on which variation it decides for that session.

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2017/jan/02/fourteen-garden-villages-to-be-built-england-48000-homes-green-belt The good news: new homes The bad news: knowing this government they're probably gonna end up looking like some kind of awful British version of the down-unders from A Boy and His Dog, complete with constant martial music, morris dancing, maypoles and the forcible harvesting of homeless young men's seminal fluids plus they'll contribute to "urban sprawl" and "overstretch infrastructure" which i'm pretty sure is just NIMBY by any other name

They actually put a decent amount of research and effort into the different forms Brexit could take and what effects it would have. Which puts them a couple of steps ahead of the government.

Ora Tzo posted:What's gonna happen when Charles takes the throne this year? Not much different. Probably a bit of an upswing in republican sentiment because he's nowhere near as popular as his mum. Could see a few of the commonwealth countries becoming republics down the line but not us anytime soon.

I think it's going to be interesting to see what happens with the Commonwealth - apparently the Queen has been spending the last few years trying to make sure that Charles gets to be head after she dies but it's not automatic succession or anything and I can see some of the other members not liking the 'empire' feel of letting Charles be head.

New Year New Yougov. https://twitter.com/MSmithsonPB/status/815866001766150144 Not a good start for Labour. Len Mcluskey hasn't got the memo that the polls are all wrong/don't matter.

Ah yeah, the solid strategy of sticking your head into the sand and ignoring things. That really worked out well in 2016 with Brexit /Trump.

Pissflaps posted:New Year New Yougov. I don't think the "polls don't matter". I just don't see what your point is posting them every couple of days. We know Labour is behind the Tories. We wouldn't be so bloody miserable all the time if they weren't. You'll also notice the Tories are slowly sliding lower as well. Oh look it's UKIP slowly rising. I'm so happy you find the rise of fascism so loving amusing. I guess it's single handedly Jeremy Corbyn's fault. (OOC: argueing with pissflaps is better than another conversation about food so gently caress you)
