Is Brexit actually going to happen?

[tommers]

Happy Brexit day everybody! Finally free from the tyranny of the insidious European death empire and able to strike out on our own like a small child venturing into the busy road for the first time.

We got it done!

 

[SpookyFrank]

And all this at the low low price of tory rule forever.

On radio 4 news they have been having a recap on what brexit is, how it has divided opinion etc.

Useful for anyone who didn't notice it was happening.

If you don't buy into the idea of the nation as an entity you walk away from large chunks tax raising and expenture the impact of mainsteam media all sorts

The nation state as a means of government is different to allowing the nation state you are from to be such a part of your identity that you are embarrassed and ashamed of dickheads who also happen to be from the same nation state. It's a weird way of thinking. French politician, wanker, not my problem, some prick from margate, oh I'm so ashamed, pardon, spiacente, lo siento

Congratulations on your political insight, everyone.

Turns out you can't rely on the political insight of wreckhead, Fosters Mackem, or Chris P Duck

 

[pesh]

The UK is about to get eaten alive in a desperate clock-ticking US trade deal, and is left hanging on the kindness of the best deal maker in the world, Mr D Brexit's generosity.
Wouldn't it be funny though if Bernie Sanders won the presidency in November just ahead of our real 51st State exit date of 1st Jan 21 and scuppered the whole deal in the name of international socialism. Oh how we'd laugh as the Tories switch from blaming the EU to blaming the US.

File under all the other things that won't happen because of Brexit.

My name's not on that list, in fact I don't think I voted in the thread poll, but I think it's a little early to be dismissing the possibility of a 'face saving fudge out of hand.

 

[kabbes]

To be fair, up until 3 months ago, it still seemed about 50/50 on that 2nd referendum.

By definition, it seemed likely to the people who said they thought it was likely to happen.

Doesn't make them any less wrong though.

Anyway, the point is, those of us smart enough not to make a wrong prediction can hold our heads high on this day, Brexit day.

 

[Poot]

We've yet to see anything change. I'm saying fudge and I didn't even vote on this thread.

Congratulations on your political insight, everyone.

Looks like 52% were wrong.

Never known Lt. Fizzyquim to get anything wrong before.

Looks like the end result might be some crappy mix of all 3 options anyway, kind of like when you mix all the paint colours together and get brown.

 

[Marty1]

It's not nice at all. She's literally Sieg Heiling at the end. Nasty stuff you have rightfully been pulled up on.

Blimey! Yeah, it’s just as well we’re leaving if they’re letting Nazi’s become MEP’s.

Yes, I'm also keeping my powder dry. A watching brief if you will...

 

[andysays]

Yet another link from Marty1 which, unknown to him, turns out to be of a far right loon. What are the chances?

Serious run of bad luck, I guess...

 

[andysays]

Eta Apologies, misread who the post I was responding to was from...

 

[teqniq]

Apologies if someone's alredy posted this but, done 3 years ago but I've only just seen it. Absolute quality.

Congratulations on your political insight, everyone.

Don't think I've ever been quite so distraught at being right.

 

[skyscraper101]

Yes

 

[Steel Icarus]

Some actual fireworks here

 

[editor]

And now the national anthem for the bald middle aged white men to sing along to.

 

[Helen Back]

Begun, the dark times have...

 

[skyscraper101]

Don’t forget to set your clocks back 47 years tonight.

 

[ItWillNeverWork]

And now the national anthem for the bald middle aged white men to sing along to.

Oh get over it, you race obsessed whiner

 

[Helen Back]

I hear racist fireworks outside.
