A thank you to Brexiteers.

Not sure as to how much weight to put on this but its an interesting allegation

Starmer sabotaged soft Brexit talks to aid his leadership ambitions

Back in August 2019 the journalist Patrick Cockburn warned that Boris Johnson’s prorogation of parliament was the start of a slow-moving coup, aiming to progressively marginalize opposition to…

Begs the question as to how much power the suicidal second referendum lobby had within Labour.

It's bonkers, from quite a few different angles.

Too much boring motoring specifics in that thread for me though. It's like a radio phone in when a dull stand in presenter picks a motoring topic and gets interminable calls about how their local council have done... snore*

 

[philosophical]

Amusingly, it's attitudes like that - that support the arch twat philosophical - that caused brexit.

The English are vile, the English are stupid, the English should manage their affairs for the benefit of others - your stunning lack of self-awareness is a spectacle in itself...

I caused Brexit now is it.
Wonders will never cease.
If you’re that interested, what I wrote this morning was ‘the perma power based English ruling class is so vile, and racist and nasty and rank’.
Ruling class.

No, that one's just a piss-take. People actually take this one seriously.

 

[gosub]

the reason nobody likes philosophical is because they're the only person who has been totally correct about brexit the whole time.

tbh I don't recall his input at the time that mattered i.e b4 rhe referendum.

You’re out of luck then because they don’t. Bimble’s right. The only non-Irish-connected Brits with much of an opinion are the hard right and the hard left. Give everyone else the option on a ballot sheet and “don’t care” would win by a landslide.

Excellent. A united Republic of Ireland it is.

i'm sure he started posting about the irish border problem in about 2003.

British border. Imposed on Ireland. By the British.

 

[gosub]

Do you think anyone here should comment or have an opinion on other countries and regimes?

What does someones location have to do with anything?

The UK has a depth penalty, btw. On the poor, migrants, the working class. Always has done, just not official anymore.

I don't remember you banging on like this in 2014, when all of Scotland would have told you to piss off.

I enjoyed that referendum, sadly looking I won't get back to Scotland in time to qualify for a vote this time but I totally got

Times change. Scotland too, will be free.

Fine by me.

This notion that some Irish have that the English hate them and want to keep them subjugated is tosh though. Again, a handful of bellends are like that. Nobody else gives a monkey's. The most consideration your average Englishman gives Ireland, regards Guinness and rugby.

If it is, will be a Scottish decision taken by the people of Scotland i.e living there (and eligible to vote)

Thanks for your blessing

No problems with the English. Would hardly have lived there for 20 years if so

Successive shit governments, mind...

Good for them.

In the meantime, no British politicians or pundits will determine Ireland's glorious future.

Those days are long gone.

I didn’t join this site until after the referendum.
My input was elsewhere.

Might be slightly more 'glorious' if you didn't have Commissioners making pronouncements without even talking to the Taoiseach

Thats what I thought. though I checked your join date which says different.

An interim Taoiseach, part of a junta who suppressed the Sinn Fein vote.

But yes, the EU should tread carefully. Nobody wants them to determine a detrimental future.

Actually you are right in one respect. I occasionally posted on the Dulwich Hamlet forum that I discovered via another route. I thought it was stand alone, but later discovered this whole website was behind it.
However I did not start posting on any part that wasn’t Dulwich Hamlet related until after the referendum.
My joining date (I can’t discover it) would be related to my early posts on the football forum for DHFC.

You've made up for it though. i just did a little search for posts with the word ireland in them by you and the results went on for Sixteen pages.

Was talking in a pub in Ireland 30 years ago with a bloke who I was told afterwards was the 'nearest thing we have in the area to IRA'. He'd said to me 'we don't have a problem with the English, it's the British Government we have a problem with' which was fine with me because that's how I felt too.

You seem quite obsessed with where this self lives.

 

[AmateurAgitator]

Neither brexit nor remain!

We want revolution!

 

[andysays]

You seem quite obsessed with where this self lives.

Out of interest, where does the "this self" thing that you seem to use when referring to yourself where most people would just say "I" or "me" come from?

I noticed your use of it a while ago and it's something I've never come across anyone else saying...

That'll be most people, IME. Obviously, you're going to get the occasional head the ball who would be up for a ruck.

Plenty of English living or visiting there who are sound and welcomed. It is embarrassing when meeting some visitors who feel the need to apologize for what was done to the Irish! That's without even mentioning the past!

Yep was visiting an English lecturer who'd bought an abandoned cottage in Co. Clare (gorgeous, no utilities, middle of nowhere) and was doing it up. He had no problems at all. It was bloody tempting to move over there.
