I see Davis has resigned because May is going with a soft brexit. How soft are we talking here? So soft that the referendum might as well have not happened?

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
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.
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 :)
No one appears to be promoting the prospect of civil war. Lines drawn between both sides of the divide. Traditionalist right wing crusties against the wailing wets, comprised mostly of middle class do-gooders and the great unwashed, marching in union.
It's almost cable street relived.... Almost.
Failed to stimulate the economy while getting spending under control; if there's a way to do both you should let the powers that be know as historically it's been pretty difficult to manage that especially in a low rate, low growth global economy.
And austerity was hardly unwarranted given that Blair/Brown et al spending money like drunken sailors contributed to us not being able to recover as easily from the financial crisis. As opposed to - say - Canada, who managed their budget effectively during the good times so that the impact of the crisis was much smaller.
And more importantly, Lewis being a bit of a baby about that incident in the first turn? Not sure Raikkonen was up to something there. :rubchin:
Yep. Fairly sure Kimi is not "that kind of driver", whatever Ferrari might offer him to help Seb. Perhaps Lewis should be looking a bit closer at his own start off the line.
Cracking race though. I suppose Lewis was just sore at not winning at home six years in a row or whatever the stat was he was after.
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”
Bo Jo gone now.
It's all kicking off.
No harm in a bit of good humoured bantz but there’s always a bit of an invisible line with an element of da yoot of today.
Mrs 7 was loading the car at the local supermarket at the same time as the sh*tfaced were pouring out of the nearby council estate watering hole, post match. Within minutes they were showering the car park with c*nt this and f*ck that, to the astonishment of mother’s and small children.
No sense of time and place, see ?
Oh, yes. And I do wonder if anyone has put plans in place for if/when England do get knocked out and it kicks off. I know my fellow countrymen well enough to know that, when p1ssed out of their minds during one of the hottest spells in recorded history, they are unlikely to greet being knocked out of the World Cup with nothing more than a shrug and a stoic grin.
