Is Brexit actually going to happen?

are you serious?
Very much despite DexterTCN posting this link, and despite its Guardian origin, and despite the high proportion of capitalists being quoted (locals too, TBF), this article really is worth a read ... IMO like
Contains facts and analysis and stuff. David Conn really does do research. You don't have to agree with the article's perspective, or like what he leaves out, but there's facts in there worth chatting about.

No.
But it’s as true as anything else people claim was voted for in a poll that actually only asked one question with a yes or no answer.

We're figuring that travelling on Brexshit-eve will be the last chance to cross into the supra-state with full rights of a citizen. Maybe getting back will be trickier? Maybe we'll even be detained as aliens for not having a visa!
Living, as I do, in probably the most pro-remain part of the country I shall be donning my water wings and going for a paddle in all the tears that I assume will be flooding the high street.

So many particulars. So many questions.
Now, all of the journos and assorted hacks and twats who compared corbyn/labour rhetoric on the media as 'trumpian' and the plans for media reform etc 'terrifying' will of course bring the same pearl clutching horror to bear on Juncker. Except they won't will they?
Juncker criticises British media and urges limits to press freedom

They had [the then] President Obama do it instead, inc somehow adding the word 'queue' to his US lexicon (as in 'back of ..').
It's sometimes difficult to not see Juncker as one of Leave's best assets.

Obama had no need to add the word queue to American dictionaries, it's been there for many many years

You really are the most unnecessary fool.

Hardly getting over it.
I see that the priest is doing the usual "In nomine patris et...ah fuck it, just kill the bugger, I've said enough of the Paternoster for G-d to collect his soul". Lazy bastards, are priests. More fodder for South Atlantic construction projects, methinks.

TBF, this sort of stuff about Juncker has been doing the rounds for a decade at least. It's just that it's become (again) handy ammo now.

Well sure, but any fucker reading any politically-inclined newspaper outside of Luxembourg already knew that!

It's all come a long way since then and that's for sure. Just looking at that photo and thinking about how international politics in Europe has changed since 1940... And perhaps how it hasn't.
Makes me wonder too how Brexit is going to be seen eighty-odd years from now, and how Europe is going to look by then.
/reflections, no point to make.

Italy I suspect, looks like an Italian fascist uniform above third from left with his palm up. Also a few er roman salutes going on, doubt you'd see that in france

There were French nazis, not a huge number but they definitely existed (till 1945 anyway) and of course the Petainists who were happy enough to put up with nazis if it meant no communists. But it could be Italy, I think I'd expect a bigger crowd but there are clearly more people out of shot. Otherwise we can split the difference and say Austria

I've just bothered to look up the Parti Populaire (main French fascists of the day) and Wikipedia says their membership in 1937 was 120 000 .. so no, not a huge number but not insignificant either. Certainly fewer than 120 000 people saluting in that photo (assuming France).
