No doubt there's a few like this one - an anti EU stance based on 'the EU being a continuation of Germany by other means" There'd be a lot of people still alive who lived through WW2, and will never forget. Their kids may have been brainwashed too. At least some of the Brexit vote would have been based on this ideology.

It may be 20-30 years before Europe moves on.
 

 

Obviously I didn't bother listening to that but from my own experience of having a girlfriend from Berlin and meeting her entire family that's a load of wank.

Congratulations remainers; under the terms of the new Treaty "The UK cannot take any foreign policy action that is in conflict with EU foreign policy." I think we can safely say that the UK will still be in Europe.

I’m not a religious man but I could be persuaded that there is a god if the Prime Minister was assassinated at some point in the next 24 hours.

All of Europe, except Little England, has long since moved on from WWII.  The EU has played a major part in that.

Continental drift. Who says I didn’t pay attention in Geography.

I'm trying to work out who Red Shift is. He's got a little of the Gnasher about him, there was that other one too. TheChap or something. He wrote in similar drivel styled prose as well.

That little bit of hope I ever had died with Crystal Palace's equaliser in 2014.

Dominic Rabb. Along with James Cleverly and Liz Truss, a solid contributor to the cabinet brains trust.

I have a feeling this is the deal. DUP will get a bung. Labour MPs can fuck off if they vote for it too. 

[Mudface]

The only good thing is that May must be fucking seething.

DUP getting a bung to forget about the reason they exist? Nah, can't see them taking it. However I'm sure enough Labour MPs will vote this through.

I hope you’re right about the DUP. It will take a hell of lot from Labour though. Like, many more than before.

All anecdotal, but it appears to me that most who lived through the Second World War are not in favour of Brexit. It's their children, like Hitchens, my mother-in-law or 'Dave from Little Sutton', who are most ardently pro-Brexit. It's like how the generation who fought in the war produced a film as subtle and well-rounded as Tora! Tora! Tora! while their children produced bellicose claptrap like Pearl Harbor.

Our attack was so good then I had still secretly hoped we would put 7 goals past Palace.

Yeah, I just don't know if that Labour for a deal crew can be trusted and then you have the usual crowd of Stringer and his motley crew too. Any Labour MP who votes to make his or her constituents poorer needs to be jibbed out of the party straight away. Win or lose the vote.

It does worry me, yeah. I guess we are going to find out.

It hasn't been mentioned much in the news, but the DUP met with the UDA and UVF last week. Consulting terrorist orgs on an ongoing basis about Brexit, yet have the nerve to suggest Sinn Fein are dangerous.  They also yesterday claimed this new deal rides roughshod over the GFA, yet they voted against the GFA. Bunch of absolute fucking cunts and anyone who supports them is a cunt too.

I highly doubt there would be enough Labour and Lib Dem MPs voting for this deal. If the reported deal is worse than May's and they know the threat of No Deal has been averted. Why vote for this deal, if you voted against May's deal? I understand why the ERG would support it let's not forget that on the last vote Johnson and Mogg voted for May's deal.

I often wish that the train tracks I pissed on after the Palace game had been live enough to have melted me into a fucking puddle on the platform. That was the aim at the time. 

[Bjornebye]

I see they have taken all of the flags down outside parliament behind the BBC platform.
