    I bet it goes something like the Backstop is the sort of constitutional change that requires the approval of both communities, but I'm unconvinced that Brexit wouldn't fall under the same thing though.

      There'd be a majority for the backstop wouldn't there?

        He hasn't thought this through has he, the thinking man's bowler hatted bigot?

          Arlene Foster has said, "Now is not the time for intransigence."

          I got nothing.

            Now is the time for Snarling Arlene to be imprisoned. Where the fcuk is that RHI Report?

              The young Davy Trimble lived a few streets away from me. In his biog reminiscing about coming down to Duncairn Gardens to watch the rioting. At the time he was something of a playa himself, in VANGUARD ('Vaporise All Nationalists, Guarding Ulster Against Republican Domination'). There's a pic somewhere of him marching in shades and beret, looking a bit like Frank Spencer

              His then brother-in-law (my near namesake Willie McCombe) was something of a local celebrity. He redefined as Tina and went through gender realignment sometime later- just in case anyone thinks dear old Ulster is still entirely stuck in some Binary Stone Age...

                The only new thing we learnt from May is that she wants changes to the backstop, rather than its removal, so presumably time limits.

                  I can't even think about this any more.

                    The Singapore option of zero tariffs is being contemplated.

                    Comment


                      Singapore is a fuckin micro state (and one where almost every citizen lives in State owned housing- but that won't be in these cunts plans) . This has been the goal of ideologues like Foxy and their shady backers all along.

                      Tedious but often right Scots Nat/Tech blogger Gordon Guthrie has been warning of the danger of Henry VIII Powers for two years now (he lived in 80s/90s Nordie land and had experience of their baleful effects first hand).

                        A zero tariff UK in steep recession seems like the only situation in which a Bennite siege economy would actually be allowed to work. That would be Corbyn’s dream.

                          God spare us Bennite dreams.

                            Apart from the Commonwealth of Britain, of course.

                              Nah fuck that too, except as a precursor to a full Ukania break up.

                                At least there's some good news, with John Humphrys retiring from the radio.

                                  It was probably the death threats from Graham Norton

                                    Thank fuck. Horrible kipper fuck. Another I wish many bad days upon. Hopefully Sarah Sands is next to go from the now worthless Today on R4.

                                        It was a joke.

                                        meanwhile in Grantham news. EIM will be so proud.

                                          Ha. It's got a genuine touch of Stalinist social-realism about it. Has to be intentional.

                                              I thought it was going to be a statue of Leslie Grantham.

                                              But, yes, you'd think it will meet the same demise as Stalin statues in Ukraine.

                                                  With a bit of luck the apoplexy caused by Tusk's (totally correct) statement will be enough for whole herds of gammon to explode...
