Brexit

Guy from the Times on RTE yesterday suggesting the Irish government are to blame about deal collapse but going by headlines for Tomorrow, it seems DUP is getting the blame, the Daily Mail and The Sun don’t mention it on cover.

It'd be easy enough to hang all the failures of securing a Brexit deal on the DUP now, to the point that it probably looks tempting to halt Brexit entirely and blame that weird lot across the Irish Sea.

I'm sure that'll go down well

Called this yesterday. It will be hilarious if it comes to pass.

This Tweet never gets old.

Word is going around that this isn't even the only issue that they have to sort. ECJ and EU citizens rights are apparently still to be agreed.

Miliband as PM:

Cons: We would have a giant stone tablet in the middle of Downing Street.

Pros: The disasters of the last 2 years wouldn’t have happened.

It is a shame he wasn't as he is now in the election as I imagine he would have done a lot better being a "normal" person as opposed to a quote machine.

He was pretty good during the run up to the election. But by that point, bacon sandwich gate had already destroyed him.

I didn’t mind him at the time, he was certainly better than Blair and Brown. Trouble was he looked and sounded a bit odd and the papers absolutely destroyed him for it. If you look weird eating a bacon sandwich then how can you run a country properly?

It’s crazy but we would rather have a pig strawberry floater as PM than somebody that looks weird eating pig.

That wasn't helped by people not seeing him as a person so the odd way he eats etc. fed into that, had he just acted normally he could have ended it by just saying "yeah sometimes I pull a funny face when eating, but leave I put the bacon in my mouth instead of putting me in the bacons mouth".

Glad we cam to the same joke

I wasn’t joking. I genuinely think people in this country would far rather have a pig strawberry floater as their leader than somebody that looked weird eating bacon.

Especially if the Daily Mail follow it up by telling people that the weird guys father hated Britain.

I vowed not to broach Brexit or politics in general at Christmas but strawberry float. How can I not when we're living in a comedy timeline like this.

EDIT: Also, Lucien's gone quiet recently eh?

A caller had an interesting suggestion on James O'Brien. Sinn Fein take up their elected seats in westminster and Theresa May wouldn't need the DUP.

Would a giant lava sinkhole be more chaotic that what we are living through now? Sure we would all burn to death, but at least we would know what was going on and we would be happy in the knowledge that Farage and Boris were melting in the lava alongside us.
