  1. There are at least two large topics which have ended up revolving Brexit. You've started multiple polls on very narrow aspects of the Brexit debate and I don't see the point in having any more.
  2. I'll hold off on taking advice from someone who didn't even know the previous leader had been gone for weeks.
  3. And you have to remember not to make excuses for inexcusable behaviour.
  4. Who do you think signed the Maastricht Treaty?
  5. Closed as we don't need another topic on this. The discussion was sufficiently myopic in the main referendum topic.
  6. From what I've seen over the last year or so, Scottish Labour has very much been attempting to outflank the SNP from the left - including the income tax proposals. That seemed like a conscious move from Kez to try and bring the party at least partially in step with Corbyn, and as an outside observer I'd assume there was room for a party to the left of the SNP economically to make headway.
  7. Out of interest, who would you be more concerned about of the two leadership candidates?

    It's literally in the second paragraph.
  9. I'm going to ignore that and go straight in with the most "what on earth" Trump news in at least 12 hours. http://thehill.com/homenews/administration...rricane-victims
  10. What a bizarre comparison.
  11. It takes all sorts. The vast majority didn't.
  12. Nice anecdotal evidence you've got there.
  13. Spotted a couple of snipers on nearby rooftops as well.
  14. So why not admit that, rather than insisting that everyone is just as clueless?
  15. Well to the extent that the exact nature of the final deal is yet to be agreed, we can't be sure. However, there are only so many variations for each outcome. For example, if the final deal were to include us being exempt from EU food hygiene requirements, we'd need to hire a load of food inspectors to check that farms and factories were adhering to the new British standards. That's not prediction or speculation, that's just a fact. Alternatively we may decide we want to still be part of the EU standards, in which case we wouldn't need to hire anyone. It seems like you saying "no one knows" is actually your way of saying that you can't be bothered to think about anything which might affect your existing opinion.
  16. There's a surprising number of voters who were Lib Dem up to 2010 and have flirted with UKIP since. A number of council seats in Sheffield have gone from one to the other, sometimes via Labour, and one of the UKIP councillors is an ex Lib Dem. Coincidentally, the entire group on the council said that they would resign from the party if Anne Marie Waters had won yesterday. There was some speculation that they may join another Europhobic party which is active in the region - which goes by the name of the Social Democratic Party. Strange world.
  17. What on earth are you talking about?
  18. Nice of you to admit that you actually lost the argument, there.
  19. Famously, Labour Prime Ministers have a terrible relationship with union leaders and industrial disputes are far more frequent than under the Tories.
  20. Stunning result for Chelsea. Four English teams in excellent positions after two games. Will be fascinating to see how Spurs do in two games against Real, but expecting three group winners and two runners up at this stage.

    Well there we are.

    You must be a riot at parties.

    A blight on every sane discussion.
  24. I hate to break it to you, but the law is already quite involved in political campaigns.
  25. Defending yourself is one thing - doing so with an illegal firearm is a bit different.
