Brexit Arms: Election Night Lock-In

[GreenishMe]

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!

I also really liked Frank field and I'm sorry to see gin gone.

Labour as is has no chance at all... Of self reflection right now... They literally cannot do it.

Xing um, have we? You might be confusing me with someone else?

Raise why is gin gone? 😂

Gin gone in me along with spag 😂

Just went to see if I could buy telegraph and that cartoon wasn't in it singing...?

Dusty indeed it should never ever ever have been in question....

It should always have been how we leave...

All over the news channels are hundreds of Labour MPs, ex-Labour MPs, life long Labour voters and undecided young people all saying they could have voted Labour but had to vote Conservative because of ... Corbyn.

How could the Labour leadership not have known this? They are still blaming it on Brexit.

After 4 years of very hard work Corbyn has succeeded in his goal of giving the Tories a massive landslide again. Who knew Corbyn was such a Thatcher?

But he is not finished yet, his last mission in office is to ensure a successor like RLB who will begin her job to ensure an even larger landslide for Boris in 2024.

Let's all raise a glass and toast comrade corybn 😂😂🙏🙏🍷🍷🍾🍾🍾🍾👏👏👏👏👏 Thank you....

I thought that a particularly nice touch in that protest, was the young person in the pink coat, that had ‘KILL TORIES’ written on the back.

Kinder, gentler politics.

But he is not finished yet, his last mission in office is to ensure a successor like RLB who will begin her job to ensure an even larger landslide for Boris in 2024.

I think so too - he will stay long enough to ensure RLB is his successor and Momentum lives on - sigh.

Is there a protest - what on earth for now? Don’t tell me, they don’t like the result? How ridiculous.

time4chocolate I don’t have any chocolate in the flat

Yes, they’re protesting against the result. I appreciate the right to protest but I find this one...odd....to say the least.

As per Extinction Rebellion, I think there’s a lot of people who enjoy disrupting ordinary folk for the sake of it.

They started at Leicester Sq at 5 and colleagues tell me it was grim in the short time it took to reach the Strand.

An early night tonight for the hard core denizens of the Arms?

It's possible I am confused Autumn. Between here and the other thread, I disagreed with lots of people.

Thanks for the link Autumn - it seems like the extreme left are a bit confused, protesting against the outcome of the election when it was their dear leader that gave Boris his landslide majority. Less chanting of ‘Oh Jeremy Corbyn’ and more ‘Out, Out, Out’ would be much more fitting if they want to be a credible opposition again..

Surely, they are now shouting Go Jeremy Corbyn, and please take John McDonnell with you. He's led them into a worse defeat than Michael Foot.

Let's just thank corbyn and the good British public these hard core vicious nutters were not unleashed on us with a corbyn hard left win.

I will certainly raise a glass to that RaiseaGlass🍷🍷

Xing I don’t mind disagreement as long as it’s polite and no personal attacks and I think it’s been great here, apart from the odd flasher! 😂

Democracy is a bitch right!

What happened to all those hard left protesters when Corbyn was stomping all over the Jews?

Xing, you have mistaken AutumnRose, for another prolific poster (outside of here) whose name also begins with Autumn 😉

“What happened to all those hard left protesters when Corbyn was stomping all over the Jews?”

Good question...

I’m knackered! After only 1 1/2 hrs sleep this morning! See you all tomorrow when I am a bit more refreshed and coherent... 😂

Well that's because he wasn't, he was just misrepresented in the media.

I know its a waste but can we stomp on marrows in the arms, have a marrow jam food fight...

I have a handy diagram to help the Labour/Remainers on here understand how this happened.

Epic ah, thanks. I’ve seen that poster but can’t recall what they said.

I’m pooped but as usual, I get more awake the later it gets. Meh.

Boswell 😂
