A thank you to Brexiteers.

How does one work towards the dissolution of nation states?

Can you name a thing we can all do to further the cause?

I think we can make a start by building up and creating autonomous alternatives from below. But I also did say that I doubt I have all the answers all by myself.

And btw are you really that clueless about what anarchists think?

 

[philosophical]

Well I doubt I have all the answers all by myself, but how about trying to unify across borders and aiming to dissolve nation states? Worth a try surely. I think that ultimately thats what we need to work towards as working class people.

Were you alive during the modern Irish troubles that resulted in over 3000 deaths, and many more severely injured?

If you are all about unifying across borders don't you think the vote to leave was about damaging unity (yes unsatisfactory unity though it may have been), and perhaps as a first step, in the light of the modern Irish troubles and the Belfast Agreement, sorting out that border should be a first priority?
That won't happen if we 'drop all this brexit/remain shit' because the land border is all about 'the brexit/remain' shit.
Unless, as I have said, you think take no notice and hope it all goes away is the solution.
Don't worry about not having all the answers by yourself, no bugger has any answer, let alone all of them.

Fucking Brexit

UK ministers pledged to match EU funds after Brexit. How’s that going?

Delays to new programmes have affected support for vulnerable people, ‘throwing the baby out with the bathwater’

[StakerOne]

Don't be so fucking stupid.
The thing with a referendum - of even acknowledging the existence of referenda by having one - is that by its nature it allows the possibility of another vote. I know you're a bit obsessive about "leave", but do try to not chat shite. It makes the rest of us look foolish.

OK. So when should this referendum take place?
2024?
Im no mathematian, that's 8 years after the first.
You're happy with a referendum in 2032, right?

There was that whole learning curve with broadsheets of opening, turning the pages, and then folding it correctly if you were on a bus or train

Broadsheet in those days.

Nope. It had already gone tabloid. I delivered it to one or two houses on my paper round in 1973. Obviously to the local wrong uns.

Eta: looked it up and t'internet sez it went tabloid in 71.

Wow, that's ... something.

"OK, we're gong to film the 'Outside the EU' segment now, can everybody except a few cheerful white people leave the waiting room please."

 

[Raheem]

The punchline is everyone was staying away from A&E because it was too expensive.

 

[TopCat]

So after the vote for the whole of the UK to leave the EU and have two different systems either side of a border when are the leave voters going to establish what they voted for?
So far the leave voting morons have established nothing beyond absolute damaging crap.
As far as I can tell every person who voted leave are allies of Farage and the rest of them. Lexiters are shameless in their retrofit justification, but as things stand Lexiters and Farage, and Rees Mogg, and all the others are people with the same vile outlook.

In the negotiation there were certainly mistakes made on the UK side, as we've ended up with something unworkable for us (I mean - assuming that was a mistake and not the aim...). It's not clear that the EU have ended up in such a bad position, and I'd read this statement as mollifying politics rather than anything else.

Of course none of those mistakes were as bad as doing brexit in the first place, which was obviously always going to be, has been, is, and will continue until functionally reversed to be a shitshow for the UK.

I was listening to talk radio last night, for my sins. Apparently Brexit isn't working because people don't believe in it enough.

I think the lack of leakage or smuggling shows a better deal can be made and that a lot of the issues stopping such a deal (EU egos) have lessened.

And?

It comes down to a matter of trust between 2 polities; for whatever reason(s) there wasn't sufficient trust until now?

eu egos hmm seeming as brexit was rushed thru without forward planning on the north Ireland issue

not the only egos that need to be checked

Any figures on that? (Difficult because it would by definition not really be visible.) It was the problem I thought there'd be.

I think I've come up with a solution to the Irish border issue.

Oh no, hang on, that wouldn't work.

Did anybody suggest having three ghosts visit Remoaners to teach them the true meaning of Brexit?
