Brexit Arms: Election Night Lock-In

Welcome to the Brexit Arms - it's going to be a stormy old night! We're about to be buffeted from right to left and back again with no real idea what the landscape will finally look like in the morning. All are welcome to weather the storm in the warmth and safety of the Arms - but please remember this a hospitable establishment so let's try and keep it that way.

We're kicking off the evening with our Back to the 70's theme night while we wait for the big main event to unfold. The juke box is loaded with all your 70's favourites. Feel free to dance round your handbags but please, no dancing on the tables…. this could be seen as having too much fun.

As always, we've got a nice big pot of PG Tips on the brew and Camp coffee by the mugfuls in addition to our usual alcoholic beverages.

On a serious note, we know that tonight's events are going to cause some upsets. With this in mind, the mint imperial bowls on the bar have been filled with Diocalms and we urge all our customers to make use of these. There should be enough to go round as long as nobody starts trying to stockpile. We simply cannot risk the need for plumbers to unblock our loos on Friday morning, as they could have been called out on strike by then.

Landladies on duty tonight will be:

20:00-22:00 Greenish (with Babychams, Cherry B's and vol au vents)
2200-midnight Twattage (with Classic Dmitris and cheeseboard)
Midnight-0200 Singing (with stiff brandies to calm the nerves, plus a selection of fresh nuts)
0200-0400 Hate (possibly with Albanian delicacies and a hangover cure)

We'd like to get the glitter ball turning with this absolute classic:

….fingers crossed similar scenes will abound in the Arms by the end of tonight. Enjoy!

P.s. When ordering drinks between 8pm and 10pm please supply your own drinks emojis. Thankyou!

BLACKPOOL SOUTH Wow. Just wow.

As most of us Leavers pointed out in June 2016, if Labour had noticed that their core voters were Leavers, we wouldn't be here today Grin But thank god they were driven, as they always are, by social media and ideology Grin

AutumnRose1 · 13/12/2019 02:39

What strange times
I don’t like IDS either and I’m so pleased for him!

SingingLily · 13/12/2019 02:39

Wolverhampton North East has turned 💙💙💙

Twattage13 · 13/12/2019 02:40

No I'm in London Lily - it's one of the three Wandsworth areas...I won't be more specific than that!

SingingLily · 13/12/2019 02:40

Kemi Badenoch reelected in Saffron Walden.
Really pleased about that.
She's a rising star.

Limer · 13/12/2019 02:41

Wolves NE - nice one!!!!!!

Twattage my sympathies. I might be in the same camp as you, but due to Brexit and/or UKIP - result not yet declared.

SingingLily · 13/12/2019 02:41

Sorry, Twattage, shouldn't have asked really.

BooFuckingHoo2 · 13/12/2019 02:42

Fantastic looking night so far Grin

I shall have to keep my mouth shut tomorrow when I’ve put up with weeks of labour voters telling me it will be a trouncing labour majority!

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 13/12/2019 02:42

“My seat has stayed red due to the LibDem vote...it is what it is...”

😞🍷

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 13/12/2019 02:43

I’m flagging... getting tired! 😱

SingingLily · 13/12/2019 02:44

Wycombe 💙 hold
Steve Baker, the Brexit ninja

BooFuckingHoo2 · 13/12/2019 02:46

Bloody hell just seen it’s a Con gain in Burnley Shock

SingingLily · 13/12/2019 02:46

I'm only staying up till Chippenham is announced, probably about another twenty minutes, Epic.
My MP is Michelle Donelan.

What I don't want is for my MP to be Helen Belcher 😱

SingingLily · 13/12/2019 02:46

Burnley 💙💙💙???
Seriously?

Limer · 13/12/2019 02:47

Boo just smile and nod, that's what I do Grin

I genuinely don't understand why Labour have ever thought they were so strong - do they really think that posting a meme that gets 1000 likes is a majority vote for government? It's probably a generational thing Grin I'm old, and I speak to - and influence - real people. Hence the result Grin

BooFuckingHoo2 · 13/12/2019 02:50

I am Shock at Burnley

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 13/12/2019 02:51

Anyone watching Ruth Smeeth taking down corbyn????

AutumnRose1 · 13/12/2019 02:51

I am attempting to go to sleep

No hope for where I live, I’m fairly sure

Thanks to all, especially our lovely hosts Flowers

SingingLily · 13/12/2019 02:53

Bishop Auckland has gone 💙💙💙

Ipswich has gone 💙💙💙

SingingLily · 13/12/2019 02:53

Night night, AutumnRose. You too have helped to make history today. Sleep well.

SingingLily · 13/12/2019 02:57

Anyone watching Ruth Smeeth taking down corbyn????

Missed that, Epic. Did she do a proper job? Hope so.

SingingLily · 13/12/2019 03:00

Oh my word!!!

Heywood and Middleton has turned 💙💙💙💙

This is a total game changer.

It's going to be a landslide, folks.

Limer · 13/12/2019 03:00

Ynys Mon!!!

Taking this back to pre-Referendum, re-iterating what I said in 2016. Why didn't Labour grab onto that and campaign for it? If they had, they'd've had loads of support since the Leave victory and probably a GE before now - but even if the GE was now, they'd've won it. But OMG it's astonishingly shocking how much their political ideology comes into play - and of course Jeremy & his London comrades couldn't resist doing the reflex-action anti-Tory move. Which paved the route to their defeat tonight. Grin

SingingLily · 13/12/2019 03:05

West Brom East has turned 💙💙💙
Tom Watson's old seat

EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit · 13/12/2019 03:07

“Missed that, Epic. Did she do a proper job? Hope so.”

She didn’t have a single kind word to say about him. Brilliant!
