Brexit Arms Festive Special. Will the Grinch steal christmas? Could it be ‘Christmas with the Kranks?’ Or will we end up with a ‘Blue’ Christmas after all?...🤷🏻‍♀️🎄

[EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit]

First off, comrade Hilda has been busy in the propaganda dept! Praise be to Hilda! The dear leader will appreciate and reward your efforts with a cushy job in the newly opened Ministry of Bullshit. ✊🥀

Specials board.

⭐️ Snacks.

•Salty Bar nuts
(we always have too many)

•Marrow crisps,
I know you all hate them, but we had a glut and needed to do something with them. 🤷🏻‍♀️😬

⭐️ Mains.

A festive choice of...

•’Properly Stuffed’ “Christmas voting” Turkey.

•Festive Glazed Gammons.

•Goose that laid the Gilded socialist egg.

•’Whigs’ in blankets.

•Sauce for the Goose and Sauce for the Gander

•Brussels’ sprouts.
Divisive, yet still popular in some quarters...

•Neeps and tatties.
Grown in Corbyn’s Communist plot and kindly gifted back to us by the SNP.

⭐️Festive Drinks.

•Rebecca’s long Baileys.
Seems nice enough, but can be vicious if you have too much.

•Corbyn’s Victory Gin.
State sanctioned by big brother.

•Bag in, artisan Earl Grey Cocktail.
A Boris election special.

•Red flag Rum.
for the singing socialists among us.

•Egg nog.
Gifted by Trump. Sticks in your throat a bit, but it’s polite to drink it and pretend to half enjoy it anyway.

•The #ClassicDmitri.
Shaken and stirred. A Russian Vodka based Cocktail, shrouded in mystery and intrigue. No one really knows how it came to exist, but all we know is, that it might have happened. Somewhere. And now it’s on the menu. Enjoy!

⭐️Desserts.

•Imported Panettone.
Get it fast, I’m reliably informed we will never ever have it again post Brexit.

•Traditional Christmas pudding.
have a good look for that old fashioned sixpence inside, we might need it when all the money runs out.

•Damson jam steamed pudding.
I’m told by the suppliers, that It’s like the infamous Mumsnet chicken, we can get eleventy billion servings from it and still have more for the freezer.

As always, welcome to all who pass through this place, but, as ever please observe the sign above the bar. If you can’t read it. It says...

DON’T BE A TWAT.

🎄 🌟 🎁 🍸 🥜 🦃 🎅

Me too. I fluctuate between thinking it'll all be ok and then it won't be ok at all.

I'll be genuinely depressed if JC wins and not just because of the 2nd Referendum

I responded! CBA to repost, but, the gist.

Jezbollah and Mao ze-donnell, are evangelical snake oil salesman. They want power by ANY means. They will tell people whatever they want to hear, to snatch that power from them whilst they are distracted supping the oil. People should be worried. They are dangerous.

I just wish this week was over now...

Me too. But I really think we are seeing extinction burst. The polls had nosedived at this point in 2017 but they are holding steady this time.

I also think there are more revelations to come about Jezza and/or his inner circle.

Purdah can't come soon enough though.

The link I posted a few pages back, articulated the ruse perfectly, along with the end goal.

“Purdah can't come soon enough though.”

When does it kick in?

Ha ha...you did! :)

Sorry Epic

That’s quite ok Greenish! 😉😂

I'm stuck for a new photoshop project 😟

Will take any requests 🤩

One of my (formerly Labour-til-I-die) friends texted me tonight - said quite a few folk where he works (Jaguar Landrover) are voting Tory instead of Labour this time, including him.

They hate Corbyn & think the Tories represent them better now
(They're blue collar skilled)

🤞 that this is being replicated across enough constituencies

“They hate Corbyn & think the Tories represent them better now

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Lily we're already in purdah in the 5 week period leading up to the election day which means government departments are restricted on making forward statements and in some cases no statements about current and future policy. I think you are referring to the media blackout that has to occur on the day of polling itself.

Thanks, Twattage, yes, that's what I meant. I should have been more clear. And me an ex-civil servant...

Delighted to report that I encounter this thinking all the time! Also plenty about the deserving vs the undeserving poor (and sadly the latter do exist).

Already had a and am getting a bit nervous on Boris' behalf.

I'd hate for Epic's post on previous thread to go unread
😇

John McDonnell leaving Mumsnet Towers, assuring Jezza that his webchat was "a great success"...à la Prince Andrew???

Amazing work Dusty, as always! 😂🙌🙌🙌

For Lily

✊🥀 🙏 🕯

Not quite as requested but near enough 😘😂

And caught up on Talent/Colour-gate

Does anyone believe that was a ‘mistake’? As if the word ‘colour and ‘talent’ sound anything like each other.
I wonder what other anti Tory stuff Channel 4 have got up their sleeve.

No worries Lily - TBH I only know this properly because my industry 'e-zine' had a feature about it around the time that it started. I am not watching the debate...I will just read on here what you guys think...

Brilliant Dusty

Dapplegrey Genuinely don't know. But I could believe there are dirty tricks brewing everywhere! I've got a northern accent so 'colour' is 'cullah' and 'talent' is 'talunt' but Boris' dulcet tones say 'calla' and 'talan' which are pretty close in pronunciation.

And on the subject of blue-collar workers, today I had some guttering repaired by a local guy I'd not used before. He arrived with his mate (turned out to be his son) and they did a great job in the pouring rain! At least they were able to test that their repair worked Both of them live about half a mile from me, so in the same constituency. Both Leavers, both voting Conservative this time. Another few hundred like them could make all the difference here.

Jezza won the toss - that'll be his last victory for a while

Thank you, got the buggers.

I hope Boris stresses this will be a different tory government.

Just tuned in now (late 🙄)
