I hope the sarcasm is clear enough.
The Express reporting a block of 28 ERG members broke away yesterday leaving about 25 ultra brexiteers to continue their drive to economic armageddon
She doesn’t want No Brexit, she just wants to avoid a No Deal Brexit which even Gove concedes doesn’t honour the referendum campaign.
If No Deal Barnier has said the EU would not hold any further talks with the UK until the backstop agreed to protect Ireland
Huzzah for me!
c.f. Brexit...
But can they get out on time?
10-11am on BBC & News Channel
Hmmm!!!!
It's good we probably wont no deal now, well done her, but she was worked toward remain, let's not kid ourselves, unless you think she's about to back some sort of option now that takes remain off the table?
Maybe the referendum vote was an outlier!!
The second album was shite though. Nearly as bad as Radiohead.
Which will make it such fun. A new leader publically committed to impossible things.
Hips and Yvette come into that category. I actually had considerable involvement with HIPS at the time and Yvette just would not listen to advice coming from many in the industry.
To govern is to choose. It’s time those elected (and paid) to do so remembered that.
I'll believe Macron's intention to block an extension when it actually happens.
"“Alice laughed. 'There's no use trying,' she said. 'One can't believe impossible things.'
I daresay you haven't had much practice,' said the Queen. 'When I was your age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast. "
It does kinda work, doesn't it?

Last time I checked Scotland had a referendum on independence, and voted for the continuation of the Union.
Did you forget?
You cretinous dolt , that was because people wanted to be certain they would be in the EU. That worked out well, all that crap about how everyone's opinion would count , we would be at the table. Lying bunch of barstewards.
The UK is STILL in control of events. We can revoke, take the deal, or leave with no deal. Just as we could five months ago.
If we really want 'an extension', we'd have to revoke and re-invoke at a later date (long enough so it not to look like we were abusing the process) so it would force us into a very long extension, but an extension we would get.
Some of us do some proper research about fantasy (for anyone who read Journey to Altmortis: the crowberries included in the story are real. Took me a little while to find naturally occurring sub-Arctic tundra edible berries, but it's a nice touch).

Currently the final round, after 16 eliminations, is:
Buttigieg 50.6%
Bernie: 31.1%
Beto 18.3%
Biden not really figuring, even after you apply the "your name has to begin with B" rule and eliminate everyone else.
The PM and EU leaders need to work out a way forward that is suitable for all, which isn't going to come about until they all acknowledge that the Withdrawal Agreement isn't going to pass Parliament.
The alternative is that the UK holds the MEP elections, and elects a bunch of undesirables to mess with the EU budget planning later this year.
Leavers even got some lawyers to say so.
How’d that turn out?
Her actions to try to prevent no deal are appreciated but her motivation is as direct as the noon day sun on a cloudless day.
And this might sound a naive question, but do buyers surveys and sellers surveys look different on the same property ?
Edit: Just checked, HIPs mandatory information never included a property survey !
On surveys I would say that a buyer's survey focuses much more on risk factors, possible repair costs, re-sellability. The sellers' home report contains lots of largely irrelevant material in which you occasionally find something alarming, if you know how to read between the lines.
And the ones that Corbyn gives you, don't do anything at all
Go ask Leadsome, when she's ten feet tall
And if you go chasing unicorns, and you know you're going to fall
Tell 'em a fat twat called Boris has given you the call
And call Leadsome, when she was just small
When the men on the '22 get up and tell you where to go
And you've just had some kind of polling, and your mind is moving low
Go ask Leadsome, I think she'll know
When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead
And JRM is talking backwards
And the Kate Hoey's off with her head
Remember what the Sajid said
Feed your head, feed your head
HIPs don't lie, Yvette.

"Expect soon to hear a new form of that old talk about a Conservative-UKIP alliance – this time round, of a Tory-Brexit Party pact."
I like that way of quoting from the previous thread

I have made it so that a typed apostrophe appears curly at once. Behold my formatting prowess!
(On a serious note, I dislike straight ones and I annoyed me for ages the first time I had to do this, so a quick fiddle getting the change done is delightful).
However, find and replace is very handy for checking things like triple full stops instead of ellipsis, repetition of things like 'the the', 'and and', 'a a' and so on.
One was pretty certain it would be won by the man with the unpronouncable name from Indiana and the other thought it would go to Beto O'Rourke who he had just interviewed. Thanks for reminding me to have a bet and giving me the name of the unpronouncable one.
