Brexit mega thread part 11: is fucktastrophy a word?

Part 11 of this mega thread

Couldn't see a new one?

Hope you don't mind a newbie starting it!

Honestly haven't noticed any difference. In fairness, I haven't noticed any increase in non EU sourced food in the supermarkets either. Not really sure why on that one, but supermarkets do know exactly what their customers will buy so it's their decision. No Brexit benefit there, no downside either though.

@LouiseCollins28 I love St Pancras. The eutostar was the catalyst for taking a really dodgy red light/high drug use district and turning it into a thriving hub. I too remember the before and after. I don't understand what you could have possible liked about before.

Nostalgia - the heroin of older people - it gives you an altered sense of the past.

Excellent news. Thanks for sharing.

The Scala ? Where I saw A Clockwork Orange in 198mumble

It gets better and better for those racists who voted Brexshit to reduce immigration. They've just ditched a key point of their much vaunted new asylum bill...

Pretty simple really. I like things to be what they are. St Pancras was a railway station. Now it's a giant shopping/meeting/cafe/food type place...with trains.

We are getting rather off the topic of Brexit so apologies to all but that's my short answer.

How terrible to be able to while away time pleasantly when your over running meetingmeans you miss the train you wanted to catch. I feel for your suffering.
How awful not to have to make a lukewarm coffee last while you inhale the smell of piss.

The Scala where we saw the Blues Brothers and Casablanca on an all night bill.

But the area was a bit grim. Frozen looking young teenage girls selling themselves. Allkies fighting at a bus stop. Mind you even Eurostar won't save the hellscape that is Stratford.

Seems prime Brexiteer Crispin Odious is a bit of a sleaze.

Paging @clavinova for a cut'n'paste whatabouttery story for balance. Hopefully the Telegraph is still in business. How's Brexit working out for them ?

A bit of a sleaze is an understatement..

BBC QT is going to do an episode solely for leave voters to mark the referendum 7 years ago

I bet Farage isn't there. No big deal, it balances all the times he was before the referendum.

Not quite sure who's gonna watch it though. I gave up on question time when they went from 4 to 5 guests with a corresponding dilution of focus.

In other good news, the first of many charges against Trump are making their way to court.

I'm cross this morning. My lovely factrice has just delivered my bikini from bravissimo. In theory no duty to pay as £66, but, as it was manufactured outside the eu I had to pay 9€ in duty. Bugger, bugger, bugger.

Bastards like my alcoholic xh voted for it.

Dorries standing down with immediate effect
Hmmm
Rumours she's been dropped from De Pfeffles honours list...

She is dropped

Jacob Rees Mogg has been knighted as has Fabricant and Pritti Patel is now a dame

Here is the full lis of dishonours

They're going to have to rename it the House of Cronies...

BJ stepping down with immediate effect

Beers all round!

Jumped before he was pushed

Fucker

Hmm...isn't Dorries the No 1 fan of Bozo? Why would he drop her from the list of Infamy?

Then again they seem to be synchronised resignations - possibly to destabilise Sunak. He didn't fancy his Portillo moment I expect.

So the LibDems will pile into Dorries' seat in Befordshire and Labour will pile into Uxbridge. Let's hope to see some hefty loses to the Tory candidates.

Bet Dorries is annoyed that she wasn't offered her seat in the Lords. When Sunak goes I doubt whether he will offer a seat there to Bozo.

That it happens so soon after he saw the partygate report speaks volumes.

I leave it to legal experts to tell us whether his resigning now insulates him (and the incumbent Tories - cui bono) from more serious sanctions.

I’m sure he’s very sorry to let his constituents down when he’s done such a sterling job representing their needs. He’s done with being king now he’s got his house and after dinner circuit and presumably a job as a journalist again? Can’t think it’ll be pleasant for Sunak.

His petulant resignation letter just proves his guilt.

Although I have a scintilla of sympathy as he possibly didn't knowingly mislead us all Parliament

....but only because he genuinely didn't think the Rules applied to him - because he was, after all, King of the World Prime Minister and the Rules didn't apply to him - only the little people (ie us)
