    Neither. Horny-handed son of the soil who has worked hard since the age of 7, never taken a day sick or much in the way of holidays and still can't afford much more than an outbuilding to subsist in. Jezza and Johnny will sort all that out
    When I was young and full of rage
    I hated Tottenham to the core
    But now I've reached a gentler age
    I hate the fůckers even more.

    Just let that sink in.
    I'm not sure whether Labour can gain a majority with just the metropolitan middle class votes alone.

    After all, which parties will represent working-class leave voters?

    Conservative: Mostly Remainer Party
    Labour: Solid Remainer Party
    Lib Dems: Fanatical Remainer Party

    More importantly, who will represent the swivel eyed lunatic fringe of AWIMB (c & b)?

    Plenty of Tory voters will refuse to vote for this version of the party. I very much doubt they'll vote for Corbyn either, but they could end up letting him in.

    Which is why elections are going to be so difficult to call. Leave/remain dominates discussion but crosses party lines and not with the same strength of purpose as the natural majority in many areas. It means potentially hundreds of seats up for grabs that would normally be safe.

    Brexit is redefining british politics. Of course, the working class can still **** off

    UKIP will presumably make a return. When will EUphiles learn that when the notion of national self-determination is shunned by all of the bien pensant it creates space for the nationalist parties which have them clutching their pearls?

    They've tested the 'Stick with us or you'll get Corbyn' thing to destruction now. The grassroots of the tory party are furious and if May tries going to the country on the basis of the Chequers deal, she will lose. She either has to change the deal or step down to stop that happening.

    Please tell me you resisted singing that dreadful Ingerlund chant, LA ? I’m fighting the temptation to purchase several large sugar glass, magnum sized bottles, in order to break them over the heads of those who believe its de riiguer to wink at you knowingly while saying, “it’s coming home”

    I know one is supposed to be all po-faced about it, but I found it quite funny that they invaded an IKEA and started chucking scatter cushions about. What are these occasions for if not a bit of harmless misrule?
