Boos for the England rugby team, they are bigger bell ends than Farage but without the casual bigotry.
True Git.
I'm swearing a paratrooper with Tourette's.

The survey shows the country split down the middle, with 43% supporting a delay to Brexit in order to hold a second public vote and 43% believing the UK should simply quit without any agreement with Brussels.
If a second referendum were held with the options of accepting Theresa May’s deal or remaining in the EU on the ballot paper, 46% said they would back remain, against 36% who would vote to leave on the terms of the prime minister’s proposal.

But Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn fares even worse with a net rating of -46 (62% disapprove, against 16% who approve).
The poll shows that if the UK is still a member of the EU on 23 May, more British people would find voting in the European elections unacceptable (43%) than would be relaxed about the idea (38%). If the UK were to elect a new batch of MEPs, 13% say they would not vote, 19% would vote for Labour, 19% for the Tories and 11% for Ukip.
A fortnight ago May held a 15-point lead over Corbyn when voters were asked who would make the best prime minister. This has fallen slightly and is now an 11-point lead.

'This is where Jews worked a bit too hard, caught some unpleaant illnesses and weren't murdered by Nazis.'
One thing that has always mystified me is that Irving wasn't prosecuted for perjury following his repeated falsification of material at his libel action. We could have locked him up for five years. The judge had him stone cold. But we didn't. Why not?

a) MV3 gets through
b) most ERG-ers come back on board, the DUP get bought off - but Labour kill Brexit?
Bullshit call against Brown to give England the position to score.
As an aside it’s great fun perusing the twitter feeds of the ERG hold outs , it’s quite pathetic and tragic really . It’s like the band playing on the Titanic .
This tweet turned out to be none too accurate:

Plus this comment:
' I said this before. All the talk in my bubble of London ABers (typically in consulting, FS, or advertising) is about delaying or abandoning investments, relocations, and potential opportunities abroad. I accept we represent a tiny fraction of the population, but we drive the economy. Any rebalancing away from a services-led, London-led economy is decades away. Or perhaps not now that we've decided to go full Pol Pot. '
Its noticeable how many Pbers of that time received the red card but what happened to Speedy ?
