EU referendum, brexit and the aftermath

Ah the Torygraph. Breathing in that rarified air of smug self delusion from the upper class 1950's.

I love that it's "what next for the European Union".... what the fuck are we doing never mind them?

I've not followed the Marine A case much - wasn't he basically guilty of murder? In which case, the Mail's front page today is an absolute car crash.

Changed to manslaughter with sentencing reduced due to diminished responsibility.
Kippers still howling that it was a 'libtard stitchup'. Yes, by the notoriously left-wing British Army.

British soldiers can't be guilty of murder. British soldiers will forever be flawless saints because anyone they kill is guilty of forrinness (see also Bloody Sunday, Mau Mau, Baha Moussa and other cases passim).

Navy.

Register for the local elections in May and (start to) #takebackcontrol

(N.B. Don't think London is involved but no harm in checking your registration status anyway)

Good point.

Absolutely no way a Navy man can be guilty of anything. We rule the waves, there's even a song about it so you can wave a flag.

Geneva convention, yeah. Remind me where Geneva is... EUROPE amirite. We're out. No longer applies, ergo, he's innocent.

The flights to and from London this weekend Le Manfriend and I sat next to Sun readers.

Was much fun... I was tempted to go slag it off loudly, but honestly I don't even know what's going on in people's minds.

And to investigate the security forces in NI is biased, according May and BrokenShite...

y no national service, calling people 'sooties' and the return of the marathon bar?

not sure if real.

Nothing. Nothing is going on in their minds. They are empty, passive vessels only too happy to be filled up with spurious, hate filled shite that conveniently suits their own most general bias against anything and everything that presents even the slightest challenge or difficulty in their daily lives. They're the kids at school that resented having to learn French because it made them feel stupid, the people that feel uncomfortable ordering anything off a menu unless it has a number next to it, and for whom the appreciation of different cultures is defined by the colour of the takeaway menu. Curved bananas and limitations on hoover wattage haunt their dreams, and having a Polish person serve them in McDonalds is become a living nightmare. Human rights be damned because this is who has been charged with deciding upon our collective futures...

Not sure it's that easy.

Especially not as this morning a bloke with "I have a Latvian partner but I voted out" popped up on an EU people/allies forum...

Most people are a contradictory mess, the ones you mention exist, but somebody can be "i like immigrants" and still buy the propaganda on borders for example.

Hitting children and killing people they perceive as lower than them seems to line up fine with kipper 'values' but I'll never understand the obsession with passport colour and shitty lightbulbs.

Passports? It's just a small fucking expensive book you never look at because the photo is embarrassing and you haven't been anywhere exciting enough to get any good stamps. Who gives a shit what colour the cover is?

Ah fuck - just realised I'm wearing purple and yellow socks today. Look like some kipper fuckwit celebrating the Article 50 signing.

And light bulbs... Why does anyone have an opinion...

Mail Headline "ALL RIGHT MINDED TRUE BRITS SHOULD BE INCANDESCENT WITH RAGE OVER NEW EU LIGHTBULB DIRECTIVE!!!"

And I would still argue that this is because their primary information on these topics is either the Sun or the Daily Fail and they are lazy, passive people that don't challenge these assumptions by actually seeking a different point of view. All the attempts to silence dissent around Brexit just shows that a reasoned, informed debate is just not something these people want to have-Farage saying he'll fuck off abroad if it's all a disaster is just another deeply ironic layer on that shit cake in the same way as all the 'expats' abroad voting to have their own pensions devalued and healthcare stopped. It's moronic on epic proportions, and David Davis' face sums it up nicely...

Media is indeed at fault here and lack of critical thinking. But that doesn't come naturally to all. It's not taught in schools, if you don't pick it up it might not come.

It does irk me ppl are grand to ally themselves to brexit after the official leave campaign, they did ally with xenophobia.

Also lexiters...Another type of irrational in my book but for different reasons.

How to go forward though?
