Welcome to the Brexit Arms!

The temporary Landlady is back but worry not, all is festive good cheer with just another three days to go until we reach the Only Poll That Really Matters. Till then, the gloves are still on!

A quick recap of the events of the last week or so:

📋❓💙❤️💛⁉️💙‼️🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️😀☹️😀☹️😧😱🙄😬🤥🤔🤕🗳

Anyone of any political persuasion who is prepared to join in, eschew goadery, and enjoy a laugh, welcome. First drinks are on the house.

Important?

I meant impossible!

Flaming autocorrect.

Do journalists get a decent night’s kip tonight then?
Hope so.

“Just want to be allowed to watch events unfold with other like-minded people.”

Not a big ask really... 😞

Night, see you tomorrow! 🙏

Corbyn's Labour

This is what is being enabled, with a blind eye turned, by all those that 'hold their nose' to vote for that disgusting man.

Not just for Brexit, but because he is foul - I am praying that he gets nowhere near power tomorrow

@JoosyJew on twitter said this which is bang on:

"This has got the lot. Imagine the (justified) outrage if the Muslim community held an equivalent banner at a Conservative or Brexit Party rally and received this screaming, racist, frenzied reaction."

"This is ALL on you, @jeremycorbyn"

They will certainly need it! 😬😂

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 00:08

I spent most of the SAW days trying to find other stuff to listen to

I was the right age for them 😂

Turned 14 in 1989 so was growing out of SAW by then & thankfully music took a turn for the better in my glory years 😂😂

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 00:09

Night all 🥰

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 12/12/2019 00:11

Dusty, that video is awful. I actually got teary 😢 . Not in my fucking country. How fucking dare they.

I’m so disgusted.

HateIsNotGood · 12/12/2019 00:25

The main thing I've learned is that I want to learn how todo this meme thing, just for reference you understand.

Dusty is El Supremo, Supremo, Absolute Confirmed, at this Fine/Dark Art - very articulate in visual terms - myfavebits are the miniatures dotted around (usually bottom left) in the pix.

Just saying. So:

Bëni ditën time....

HateIsNotGood · 12/12/2019 00:29

Bottom right, usually bottom right! In Dusty's pix, fgs....
back 2 mor-row; work side done 4 ernow. Niht All.

That's a language I just made up....just so you knaww'.

Morning, All,

Well, it's finally here. The Big Day. By this time tomorrow, we'll either be dancing with joy or weeping into our cornflakes. The polls are all over the place. The pundits can't help us now. It's down to us.

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these voters from the swift completion of their electoral duty (with apologies to the US Postal Service)

So, fellow Armers, get thee to the polling stations as soon as they're open. The complimentary breakfast tray is piled high with all of your favourites, to fortify you for the 24 hours to come.

And the kettle's on.

Morning Lily!

Can’t sleep here... thanks for the breakfast!

🗳 day has finally arrived,... god, let’s please win this thing! 🤞🏻. A hung parliament would be terrible for everyone!

TheGirlFromStoryville · 12/12/2019 05:45

Morning all.
Woke up in a tizz today, with butterflies in my tum, first thoughts were about the election.
It's going to be a long day - and even longer night. Planning on staying up for the results, I remember staying up for the EU ref results. Hopefully it'll be another night like that! 🙏

MeganBacon · 12/12/2019 06:23

Morning fellow travellers Brew
The big day dawns, it's frosty out but no extreme weather.
Feels like the silence in the eye of the storm.

Got my works Christmas lunch today, then yoga tonight, then settling down for a long night with you lot later.

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 06:31

Morning comrades ✊Brew

Everyone's up early today!

This is it...

Morning all Brew’s all round.

This is going to be a long day and I shall definitely join those of you here pulling all nighters.

Was going to make hay and wrap Xmas pressies at same time to keep me awake however it could all go horrible wrong and I’ll see some Confused faces on Xmas day if tiredness gets the better of me in the early hours!!

Anyway, into the breach we go and🤞

Limer · 12/12/2019 07:30

Morning all, at last the big day is here. Clinging to the hope that common sense will prevail!

Comradesally · 12/12/2019 07:38

Morning everyone, the day is here.

Not only do we 🙏 for Sally we, we actively fight for Sally today.

And all she stands for.

IF the referendum vote doesn't get followed through, a light will go out not only in the UK but around the world. The UK is one of the world's oldest democracys, a beacon of light in a world that still has medieval dark regimes controlling peoples lives.

Good luck getting to the polls, fight for Sally.

Twattage13 · 12/12/2019 07:49

Morning all - a large black coffee please landlady. Need to do some work and then will be trotting down to the polling station to get the job done.

Comradesally · 12/12/2019 07:50

Dusty I can't believe it, that video!

That should be on national news!
Staggering!!
I hope corbyn is wiped out.

ajandjjmum · 12/12/2019 07:57

DH said how busy the polling station was when he went first thing. Hoping that's a good sign.

Brandy for breakfast please!!!

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 12/12/2019 08:05

“Brandy for breakfast please!!!” 🥃

My round, one for everyone please Landlady!

Morning all, I won’t be voting until a bit later, but I’m not expecting queues, it’s just a small village. I might have to wait for some hens to clear away from the entrance to the hall, but other than that, I think I am good... 😂

🗳🗳🗳🗳🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🙌🙌🙌

Hope that’s enough emojis. Wouldn’t want our snarky visitors from yesterday to feel let down. 😉😉😉😉😉😂

Let’s get this done ✅ 🗳

ajandjjmum · 12/12/2019 08:06

Thanks Epic - hope it calms my butterflies.

ajandjjmum · 12/12/2019 08:08

By coincidence my big Christmas (largely booze) delivery was due this morning between 7 and 9, and I've just had a message to say it'll be this afternoon. Messing me about when I may well need to dip in sooner than expected! Grin

DustyDiamond · 12/12/2019 08:08
