British Indy: What Happens Now?

Discussion in 'Wasteland' started by Loz, May 23, 2015.

?
  1. Full Brexit with "no EU deal" on the 29th March.

  2. Request Extension to article 50 to allow a general election and new negotiations.

  3. Request Extension to article 50 to allow cross party talks and a new deal to be put to EU.

  4. Request Extension to article 50 to allow a second referendum on 1. Remain in EU or 2. Full Brexit.

  5. Table a motion in parliament to Remain in EU WITHOUT a referendum.

  6. I don't know or I don't care anymore

Results are only viewable after voting.
  1. British Indy has not happened yet, so maybe not. Wouldn’t put it past BJ to ditch is withdrawal bill and go for the full bhuna.
    Can probably close the election thread though. That’s certainly over.

  2. I merged this with the election thread after the election.

  3. That thought occurred to me today that in 9 years the Tories have destroyed the Lib Dem’s and Labour, though the SNP have played their part also.

    Feels horrible !
     
  4. In the interest of balance would you mind posting something by

    Major
    Or
    Patten
    Or
    Heseltine?

    you know it’s only fair
     
  5. Momentum, John Lansman, the members and Jeremy Corbyn have destroyed Labour. The Conservatives have nothing to do with it.

    Nick Clegg, Vince Cable and Jo Swinson and a disrespect for democracy have killed the Lib Dems.

  8. I heard John Lansman the other day on the radio. No wonder he keeps a low profile. The power behind the thrown. I wouldn’t trust him with my beer money.
     
  9. That’s harsh!

  10. No it won’t

    BJ will want to renegotiate with the majority he has.

  11. Is that the thrown election? :)
     
  12. my ability to spell Is evaporating.

    Is “thrown” how you spell the thing the queen sits on and what I take a dump in?
     
  13. No, you spell that, "The Shitter". :confused:

  15. A better ‘deal’, BRINO ?

    That would upset all the voters that voted Conservative just for Brexit.

  16. Nicked offav Facebook......worth a read :)

    Walking down the street, a Member of Parliament is hit by a lorry and dies. His soul arrives in Heaven and is met by St. Peter. He says, 'Welcome to heaven. Before you settle in, it seems there's a problem. We seldom see anyone in such high office around here, so we're not sure what to do with you.'

    'Just let me in,' says the politician.

    'Well, I'd like to but I have instructions from above. You'll have to spend one day in Hell and one in Heaven, then you can choose where to spend eternity.'

    'Really, I've made up my mind. I want to be in Heaven,' says the MP.

    'I'm sorry, but we have our rules.' replies St Peter

    With that, St. Peter escorts him to the lift and he went down, down, down to Hell. The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a green golf course. In the distance is a clubhouse and standing in front of it are all his friends and other politicians who had worked with him.

    Everyone is very happy and dressed in evening dress. They run to greet him, shake his hand, and reminisce about the good times they had while getting rich at the expense of the people. They play a friendly game of golf and then dine on lobster, caviar, and champagne.

    Also present is the Devil, a very nice, friendly guy who has a good time dancing and telling jokes. They're having such a good time that before he realises, it's time to go. Everyone gives him a hearty farewell and waves as the lift rises...

    The door opens in Heaven where St. Peter is waiting for him. 'Now it's time to show you around Heaven.'

    So, 24 hours pass with the MP joining a group of contented souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing harps and singing. They have a good time and, before he realises it, the 24 hours have gone by and St. Peter returns. 'Well, you've spent a day in Hell and another in Heaven. Now choose your eternity.'

    The MP reflects for a minute, then answers: 'Well, I would never have thought it before, I mean Heaven has been delightful, but I think I would be better off in Hell.' So St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down down to Hell.

    When the doors open he's in the middle of a barren land covered with waste and refuse.

    He sees all his friends, dressed in rags, picking up the rubbish and putting it in black bags as more garbage falls from above.

    The Devil comes over and puts his arm around his shoulder.

    'I don't understand,' stammers the MP, "yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and clubhouse, we ate lobster and caviar, drank champagne, danced and had a great time. Now there's just a wasteland full of garbage and my friends look miserable. What happened? '

    The Devil looks at him, smiles and says, 'Yesterday we were campaigning.............Today you voted’

  17. when he was negotiating before the election he was in a very weak position, as was May. Consequently, the deals they got were flawed.

    Now he has a very strong position and he would be mad not to want to go back and sort out at least some of the issues.

    I still think he wants a WTO Brexit though
