A MAN dressed as a fish finger has vowed to challenge Tim Farron for his Westmorland and Lonsdale seat in the general election.
A crowdfunder page set up to pay the £500 for Mr Fish Finger to enter as a candidate has already reached its target.
The page reads: "This seat has been held since 2005 by Tim Farron, who lost to a fish finger - by a margin of around 99% - in a poll of over 1,000 people, when asked "Who would you trust to lead you more?".
Mr Fish Finger says he will conduct any related business dressed as a fish finger.
More than £1300 has been raised, with Mr Fish Finger saying money over the £500 will be used to make himself look 'dashing' as he embarks on his new career.
None. They could choose to not relocate their agencies if they wanted.
Brexit means Brexit...
You won. Suck it up!
No, you lost. If you and your like had put one tenth of the effort into campaigning that you put into doing your primary school sneak act on the internet (Ooooh Miss! Miss! Gove and Johnson have been writing on the school bus! Oooh Miss, May told an untruth about election dates! Tell them the didn't orter!) David Cameron would be in Downing Street today.
Has there been some new French poll? Emmanuel Macron is now as short as 1.78.
I was trying to work out the odds. If Macron fails the cut for the second round, I would think Fillon is nearly certain for the presidency - because Macron won't be there; and Fillon would win against Le Pen and Mélenchon in the increasingly unlikely event he makes the cut. In principle this would mean the chances of a Fillon presidency are almost correlated with the chances of Macron NOT making the initial cut.
No. Fillon polls well vs Le Pen but he is less certain to win heads up than Macron.
None. They could choose to not relocate their agencies if they wanted.

I don't think it was effort but strategy. Few of us could have anticipated how the fear of an invasion of foreigners would swing the result.
I wrote a piece almost every week on the advertising and the effect of the PPB about (possible) Turkish accession was a surprise but it was real and resonated like nothing else.
Even knowing what we know now I don't believe at that particular time (with the European migrant crisis slap bang in the middle of the campaign) Remain could have altered the result

Indeed.
Just another attempt by the "winners" to "blame" the result on those who voted against it.
Curious they are not happier with their achievement...
None. They could choose to not relocate their agencies if they wanted.

Having the Referendum timed to be within a fortnight of the immigration numbers coming out was just plain dumb-as-a-brick stupid by Remain.
Surely the response to a request for us to fund them relocating their agencies is "we're not asking them to leave".
Which part of "leaving the EU" are you confused by?
None. They could choose to not relocate their agencies if they wanted.
And we could remain party to the EMA too. It's all part of the negotiation.
At least, it should be.
Exactly. This is another example of one side laying out a starting position for the negotiation.
Only if you consider 'we're leaving' to be a negotiating position rather than a statement of fact. I might like that to be the case but I'm surprised you seem to.
"We're leaving" doesn't imply "and we're kicking your staff out of the country".
None. They could choose to not relocate their agencies if they wanted.
Brexit means Brexit...
You won. Suck it up!
It's madness for anyone to think that there won't be a final bill for us to exit the EU. It's also madness for the EU to pad out that bill. It might sound tough, and I'm sure you've wet your pants over it, but it's only going to be counter productive, as is any talk of us walking away without paying anything.
TFS, UK will pay either way , and bill will be more than we pay now for sure. We have morons negotiating for us.

Neither does it imply "and we're keeping the bits we like".
Just subscribed to the times and sunday times on line at one off £8 for 8 weeks free online access and £24 monthly thereafter with 15 day notice of cancellation.

Sure, but we are not asking to keep the bits we like, we're saying that it's their decision if they want to move these agencies. Since it's entirely their decision, and we're happy with the agencies staying here, why on earth should we be expected to pay the removals costs?
As for matters French, it looks now like a Macron-Le Pen run off unless HYUFD's hopes for a surge in older voters backing Fillon translates into anything approaching reality.
The French centre-right must look enviously at their British cousins but in truth the French only have themselves to blame. The Presidency was theirs for the taking but they've handed it to Macron.
Brexit means Brexit is the only answer we have been given so far.
There are a bunch of things that are going to change, some of which you won't like, as a result of Brexit.
If you voted for it, you won. Suck it up!
No, that still doesn't come close to answering the point. If they choose to move their offices, they can pay. That will, quite rightly, be HMG's opening negotiating position.
None. They could choose to not relocate their agencies if they wanted.

Holding the referendum when most students were away for the summer wasn't smart either.
Sure, but we are not asking to keep the bits we like
ROFLMAO
"Please, please, please keep the headquarters of the club we just left here, please..."
The issue isn't whether the agencies stay here, it's whether we have to pay costs if the EU27 (not the UK) decide to move them. What on earth have any such costs to do with us? We won't be members of the club. We won't even have a vote in their decision.

No one thought it through; they thought that human progress and the march of reason, or the Bilderbergers, or someone or something rendered it impossible for Leave to win, so it didn't matter what they did (which was therefore, absolutely nothing).

In one of the greatest ironies in UK politics, Cameron decided to hold the referendum in June 2016 and not say April 2017 because he didn't want this Parliament to be dominated by the referendum.
Mr. Eagles, indeed. For all the assumptions, this election is a choice.
May or Corbyn will be Prime Minister.
Like you, I have mixed feelings about May. But that choice does not provoke a prolonged period of contemplation.
Mr. Roger, 'he hadn't thought it through' sums up rather a lot about Cameron's approach to the EU referendum.
Mr. StClare, surely you cannot be questioning the Word of Morris?
Mr. Eagles (2), the enormo-haddock believe in EHV - Enormo-Haddock Voting. It'll replace the House of Commons once the Revolution comes. The House of Octo-Lemurs will be the Upper Chamber.

I'm voting for Labour's Lucy Powell in Manchester Central.
"Welcome Messrs Corbyn and McDonnell, this is a constitutional requirement and does not imply in any sense that we intend to do any work on trying to translate the batshit ramblings in your manifesto into something that might not be a complete disaster from a governmental perspective."
Given your background Jack, can you advise on good books on the Cause and the Risings
At the exchange rate of one Ayrshire Turnip (AT) to the £, I recommend the following :
The Jacobite Cause - Bruce Lenham - AT3 The 45 - Stuart Reid - AT10 1715 - Daniel Szechi - AT20 Inglorious Rebellion 1708, 1715 and 1719 - Sinclair-Stevenson - AT5
The 1715 is more difficult to find but the others are usually available from ebay at the above prices. Some sellers may not accept root vegetables as payment - shocking I know !!
That will, quite rightly, be HMG's opening negotiating position.
"We're leaving" is not a negotiation.
If this really is the standard of Brexit thinking we are even more fcked than it looked so far.
If a point can be missed you miss it, don't you? Nobody said we were negotiating about the fact of our leaving: that was established in the referendum in which you couldn't be arsed to campaign last year (did you even bother to vote? Are you sure?) We are talking about the terms on which we leave. Which are negotiable.

Somewhat o/t but looking forward to seeing the Tories' 'Vote Labour get Corbyn' ads go up the length and breadth of the country. I wonder whether they will be allowed to declare them as Labour party expenses or not..
They could spend 50k on the campaign and get Michael Crick to drive Jezza straight to prison afterwards for busting limits. It all makes sense.

With 24% leads for the Tories, I'd hate for Lucy Powell to lose her seat.
We are talking about the terms on which we leave. Which are negotiable.
No, we are talking about the act of leaving, which apparently our Minister for Brexit hasn't grasped yet
The UK’s chief Brexit negotiator, minister David Davis will fight to keep the European Medicines Agency in London, despite the country leaving the EU.
The Financial Times has reported that the Brexit secretary doesn’t accept that the European drugs regulator and its 900 staff need to depart from London when the UK exits the European Union – despite Europe’s leaders indicating that this would be impossible.
The FT reports that Davis also believes that the UK can also retain another key EU institution, the European Banking Authority (EBA), also located in London. Having the agencies is a reflection of the country’s strength in banking and in pharmaceuticals, and they have strengthened the attractiveness of the UK sector.
This endless whining of the Brexiteers about the bad things that are happening as a result of Brexit is really tiresome, and now we have another 5 years to go instead of 2.
I remember discussing this with a colleague vis a vis William Hague & co having discussions with civil servants in 2001. We imagined the conversation going something like: "Look, do you really want to do this, or can we all just go home early?"
Come on Ed. Find a better seat and get on with it.
It really could make a difference. If people thought Labour might get a competent leader after this fiasco they might just think they are worth saving. A bit.
Brexit means Brexit is the only answer we have been given so far. [...]
Brexit means this. A pretty tough set of negotiating guidelines from the EU, but it looks like they have it locked down. I don't think the final outcome will deviate much from it.
Sure, but we are not asking to keep the bits we like

One day we might be able to laugh at that. But it's too soon.
Who first used the term "crême brûlée Brexit"? The earliest reference I've got is by "[DK]mutley696" on 19 Dec 2016. Since he describes himself as "just some guy, you know?!", I strongly doubt that he attended Trinity College, Cambridge, where the dish - also called Trinity cream or Trinity burnt cream - is sometimes (probably wrongly) held to have been invented.

Mr. Rhubarb, welcome to pb.com. Are you from the Rhubarb Triangle?
http://www.thewestmorlandgazette.co.uk/news/15235411.Tim_Farron_faces_challenge_for_constituency_from_a_man_dressed_as_a_fish_finger/
A MAN dressed as a fish finger has vowed to challenge Tim Farron for his Westmorland and Lonsdale seat in the general election.
A crowdfunder page set up to pay the £500 for Mr Fish Finger to enter as a candidate has already reached its target.
The page reads: "This seat has been held since 2005 by Tim Farron, who lost to a fish finger - by a margin of around 99% - in a poll of over 1,000 people, when asked "Who would you trust to lead you more?".
Mr Fish Finger says he will conduct any related business dressed as a fish finger.
More than £1300 has been raised, with Mr Fish Finger saying money over the £500 will be used to make himself look 'dashing' as he embarks on his new career.
These things matter.

The 45 - Stuart Reid - AT10
1715 - Daniel Szechi - AT20
Inglorious Rebellion 1708, 1715 and 1719 - Sinclair-Stevenson - AT5

The UK’s chief Brexit negotiator, minister David Davis will fight to keep the European Medicines Agency in London, despite the country leaving the EU.
The Financial Times has reported that the Brexit secretary doesn’t accept that the European drugs regulator and its 900 staff need to depart from London when the UK exits the European Union – despite Europe’s leaders indicating that this would be impossible.
The FT reports that Davis also believes that the UK can also retain another key EU institution, the European Banking Authority (EBA), also located in London. Having the agencies is a reflection of the country’s strength in banking and in pharmaceuticals, and they have strengthened the attractiveness of the UK sector.

This endless whining of the Brexiteers about the bad things that are happening as a result of Brexit is really tiresome, and now we have another 5 years to go instead of 2.
Awesome...
So Theresa's personal ratings against Jezza are almost double those Thatcher had against Foot.
Thatch's majority in 1983 was 144 so if we double that with Theresa's personal rating we get a Con majority of around 280?

"[DK]mutley696" on 19 Dec 2016. Since he describes himself as "just some guy, you know?!", I strongly doubt that he attended Trinity College, Cambridge, where the dish - also called Trinity cream or Trinity burnt cream - is sometimes (probably wrongly) held to have been invented.
