BREXIT Crunch time (part 38) WTF is going to happen next?

[Ranbay]

The thing with this Tommy Robison putting his name down as an MEP one would assume when it comes to Election Day most of the voters won’t have a clue who Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon is.......

 

[toblerone3]

It’s to
a) send a message to the UK government that the public still want to leave (though might not show this)
b) to stick MEPs in the European Parliament that can be disruptive out of spite, so as to punish the EU for not letting the UK have cake and eat it.

Of these, a) will probably happen as the ‘remain’ ticket is divided and the most pro-EU voices aren’t the sort of people most could stomach voting for.

But wont the proportional representation element of the EU elections mean that the division of the remain ticket will still result in the election of remain-minded MEPs from different parties?

But (a general question) : Are not candidates allowed to add "commonly known as ... " (or something like that) to their real names, on the ballot paper?

</relying on Urban not Google because it's bed time for me >

 

[William of Walworth]

As in "Commonly known as 'That Frothfoaming Looncake' ... "

I can't say where I got this from, but I heard certain logistical preparations are being made for a General Election announcement as of yesterday.

Nah. The tories are shitting bricks at the moment. May would never be forgiven if she called another election and it went even more tits up then last time.

 

[killer b]

why bother then, it's most likely bollocks.

 

[Teaboy]

I can't say where I got this from,

 

[HungryTommy]

I reckon it will end up with a GE , as both main parties now are just a bunch of timid clowns

 

[planetgeli]

I can't say where I got this from,

You were at that National Security Council meeting weren’t you?

 

[HungryTommy]

let's just hope someone can get her moved out of number 10 - she really is an embarrassment to the nation

 

[Serge Forward]

an embarrassment to the nation

Fuck the nation.

 

[HungryTommy]

sure, that's a nice grown up view to have - what are u, some kind of undergrad at Brighton uni or something

 

[kabbes]

The worst of all the bad insults

 

[HungryTommy]

not a bad uni, in fact they don't even sell any newspapers in the SU there, just in case any one of them causes offence - must be a bastion of free thought

 

[Pickman's model]

It will end in tears

Yeh now they have to announce the logistical preparation for an announcement

 

[kabbes]

OK, for those wondering what the ignore function is for, THIS is what it is for.

 

[Serge Forward]

What ignore function? I think I might have ignored it. That'll learn me for not getting a degree at Brighton university

 

[Serge Forward]

Found it. Job's a good un.

 

[Sprocket.]

You were at that National Security Council meeting weren’t you?

I didn’t see him!

 

[SpackleFrog]

I didn’t see him!

He was hiding in the vol-au-vents.

 

[Sprocket.]

He was hiding in the vol-au-vents.

An obvious Remainer then, forrin food.

 

[brogdale]

Watch out, looks like we've got some sort of Russell Group elitist here. Be careful engaging, they'll most likely have been to a public school and learn't logic & rhetoric and all that posh shit.

 

[Wilf]

Vol-au-vents - up yours Delors! Giant Yorkshires will be the finger food of choice for Brexit.

 

[Supine]

Giant Yorkshires will be the finger food of choice for Brexit.

If you can still buy the ingredients

 

[Wilf]

Remainers will huddle together in bombed out basements bartering saurkraut and patatas bravas for antibiotics and drinking water. I'm planning to make a few quid running illegal raves where the like minded can dance the Sardana and yodel till the cows come home.
