Brexit party on 31 January in London is going ahead. And it will be shit.

We're visiting friends in Bath on Saturday. Presuming we'll be able to avoid any celebratory nonsense out that way.
 
I know people who haven't bothered with it at all on the fairly reasonable grounds that 'if they want to kick us out they'll kick us out whether we filled in a form or not'.

:(
Yup. And they will need a few example cases to show they are taking the whole control our borders thing seriously.

Or just an easy PR win with their base if (when) brexit and/or domestic policy starts to go sideways.
 
There's apparently a "mega SODEM" planned for tomorrow at P Square - that's Steve Bray's group who go there regularly anyway.
 
All your shitty shopping needs catered for

Just went by Parliament Square, handful of EU flag wavers out frothing for the cameras. Sad hobby really.
If they aren't there on any given day (and also usually Leavers) then there's something wrong.

I realised the other day how weird all of the photos I have of assorted Brexit-related stuff are going to look in a few years' time.
 
[...] The EU is a bag of shit and I firmly hope that the UK's departure brings the whole thing crashing down. But our transition to EU client state/banana republic is not something a sane person would celebrate. Nor is this kind of celebration a kind thing to do to the millions of EU citizens resident here who still don't know what's going to happen to them and have no reason at all to trust the vague promises and even vaguer concrete provisions given to them thus far.
Couldn't agree more with the second part, but even allowing for hyperbole, how will it help anyone for the E.U. to come crashing down? Seceding's polling abysmally across the bloc, so its people don't want it; and if there's any hope for intergovernmentalism to replace supranationalism, it'll have to be a slow, cautious process.

For years, Eurosceptism argued that Britain's common law system was fundamentally incompatible with a legal order designed by, and for, civil law states, as the customs and culture of an island nation were a poor fit for those of the Continent. Agree or disagree, that position's different in kind from whatever Brexit's now become, and shows again why I won't be celebrating.
 
Well, yes. A political leader with no apparent prior track record as a DJ just suddenly rolling up and DJing would be somewhat confusing. It would be as if I turned up for a band gig, and found out that David Cameron has stepped in on the old electric viola.

:facepalm:
 
I think I will go down tomorrow, take some farewell shots. I have pictures of Brexit related protests (pro and anti) going back to the day after the result was announced, when people went to Trafalgar Square in the rain. It would be interesting to put a book or an exhibition of them together actually.

fuck going to hang out outside Parliament on a cold Friday night with that bunch of cunts though
