Cheers 🍻
Brexit Ahoy! 🇬🇧 🇬🇧 🇬🇧

That is very good, thanks ghost.

We know Squishy's link is a parody, don't we?

To be fair it's only marginally more ludicrous than the Civitas report.

This is a bit concerning:

www.politicususa.com/2017/03/19/trump-biggest-failure-history-disapproval-rating-skyrockets-58.html

"Donald Trump has set a record that disapproval rating that has never been reached before in the history of polling as his disapproval rating has reached 58% two months into his time in office.

Trump has the worst job approval numbers since Gallup began tracking presidents in 1945. At this same point during his first term, President Obama’s job approval rating was in the low 60s. George W. Bush’s approval rating was in the low 50s. It took Ronald Reagan a year to have an approval rating as bad as Trump’s, and it was a year into Richard Nixon’s second term before he hit the low that Trump is at.

The practical political lesson for Democrats is that they should not shy away from linking Congressional Republicans to their unpopular president. What should be frightening for elected Republicans is that things will probably get much worse for Trump in the future. The first few months of his term are supposed to be the most popular point of his presidency."

How low can Donald Trump go? It is possible that he may set records for unpopularity that will stand for decades."

Prickles - have you posted this here by mistake? there is/was a Trump thread somewhere.

I'm not sure people should be celebrating just yet. You lot do know, don't you? that there was a very important march today, which i'm sure will be a 'game' changer. Pmsl.

what march? In America?

The 'very important march' took place in London which was overwhelmingly pro remain so it doesn't bother me that much. Probably wouldn't be so big if Birmingham was the venue.

I do think however that it's an important message that the majority for Leave wasn't great and many Leavers don't want 'hard Brexit' and a good argument for a deal which gives us the best of both worlds, even though it will still cost us to be in the free market.

Oh dear, clueless people here assume life post-Brexit will be a dolce vita like it's 2004 again but with fewer European immigrants which they presume to be a good thing. The awakening will be seriously rude...

Did everyone remember to put their clocks forward 1 hour today?

And don't forget to put your clocks back 44 years on Wednesday 🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄

We can argue all we like for a deal which gives us the best of both worlds Olympia. It's never going to happen.

Tim Barrow to hand deliver A50 letter - how quaint

With regards from Mr Putin. Hand delivered by a lapdog.

I know, democracy's a bummer isn't it London?

Wrong you may just find that democracy really is a bummer. Just as we don't know what the deal is. Nor do you

I'm just really worried about Brexit.

poorboy So what would you like to see instead of democracy?

I can understand that smashed but I was very worried about being in the EU, which seemed much more of an unknown and uncontrollable future to me.

Do you feel pretty optimistic now?

Yes, I do.

What was worrying for you about the EU?

I have a massive irrational hatred of Keir Starmer.

He has such weirdly small features for the size of his face & the whole thing is almost immovable (just his eyelids & mouth move).

And he's such a mansplainer.

Wrong

I love our democracy. Which is why I will march and protest and join

My point was...you don't actually know what you will be getting either....Brexit may on the outside chance either be Hard....or nothing and it all stays the same

It may very much depend on public opinion and the worry about the breaking of the union, Many politicians in the end are generally self serving in terms of re-election

A vote to leave wasn't the contractual agreement. Anything could happen. You may be celebrating too soon

I love it that Starmer is disliked in certain sectors. They are worried about him

I don't think slating the way he LOOKS is really an in depth investigation of his political stance or credibility and if a man had said that about a woman. Well you know what I am saying
