Amazing how we can recognize social realities without necessarily condoning their effects. Mind. Blown.

He doesn't have to negotiate, he just has to send the letter. Word games from him. He's sending the letter.

Why is it a mess? The NI assembly has a significant pro-EU majority and (when sitting) will very likely vote to keep EU rules every time. That's why I...

I prefer to read that as you being a progessive with a pinch of commie. Glass half full and all that.

That's a huge concession from the EU and Ireland. There is no way the DUP will get more than that. But these are the people who opposed the Good Frida...

There is no deal I can envisage that Ireland (and for Ireland read the EU) and the UK can agree on that the DUP will also agree to. Because there is n...

Bye-bye, DUP. Hello, Labour rebels.

Anyhow, don't want to discuss me here. Carry on. :point:

None of this is about the substance for Boris. He always knew if it was anything, it was either May's deal or a custom's border between NI and the UK,...

No such option. But I can say I've probably received as many PMs as anyone and been the subject of as much ill-feeling by the type of person who would...

I think Boris is ready for his Syriza moment. Took much theatre but it's coming.

It takes less time for us to ban you than it does for you to set up a new account and join again. Think about it.

No time for that now. I'm busy sitting on my couch staring out the window at a bicycle.

Pantomime for Brexiteers. There'll be an extension because it's the law.

I don't see any reason to but if you want to open a feedback discussion suggesting that, go ahead and make your case. The debate is off-topic here.

I'm not sure why you need extremely simple things explained to you in detail. But you're not going to be indulged any more.

His passion was not what ultimately got him banned. It was the "fuck you... ban me" bit.

I am maybe one of the few people who likes @"S", but it was absolutely the right decision.

Maybe another Daily Telegraph fantasy (the last one was that Ireland was "under pressure" to accept Boris's deal). The fact is that no EU country is g...

Probably 95% of we Irish can't speak Irish (fluently). So, what is it to be Irish? What is it to be a game? It's never one thing and no one thing is e...

And compared to what Clinton and Albright did to Iraqi children, trying to get dirt on Biden from wherever seems positively benign.

That stuff isn't going to appeal to anyone with a mental age of more than 12. So, yes, it will be very effective among his fan base. Sidenote: I think...
