When this all goes tits up, it will be your fault, lazy Britons.

They've shifted mode to 'desperation' rather quickly here, I feel.

Liam Fox is a war-mongering sociopath with a dangerous agenda. He does not say sensible things.

It is conceivable that, like a stopped clock, he manages to accidentally say something credible from time to time. Fortunately, he steps on his dick frequently enough that you don't have to wait long for the headbanger reminder to come through...

 

[existentialist]

I'm sure I'd agree with some of his views about Boris

It is fun, watching the Brexiteers being remorselessly pushed back on their farrago of idiotic claims. It's still no compensation for the fact that they were able to make those claims, apparently with impunity, and thereby carry a large chunk of our more credulous electorate with them, though.

I expect it'll all be the dole bludgers' and leadswingers' faults again.

it certainly wasn't sensible to introduce the shitty halfway house ban they did.

Yes, not much point in protecting foxes if it's still open-season for werrities

Of course it was with impunity, though. The referendum was of that nature - the brexit campaigners weren't on a platform saying 'vote for us'. Nothing in anything they said ever carried any weight of being a claim or a promise or a pledge. They were in no position to do so.

Quite. It still leaves something of a nasty taste in the mouth that they were able to get away with saying all their nonsense quite so authoritatively, without it really being held up for examination, though. So it is gratifying - even if it's too late - to see it coming apart at the seams now.

Thanks to them and their nonsense our lives have all been ruined by the emergency budget that was the inevitable result of a Brexit vote

our lives have been ruined by their intolerable insistence on refraining from committing hari-kiri on the south bank

they still have time to ruin our lives..

its only just beginning

bring on the October budget

It was James Blunt, an old Harrovian, who bottled WW3

there are in the region of 640 mps, innumerable lords and a myriad councillors - not to mention scores of meps - who could at this very moment be working on the west falkland - santa cruz falklands/malvinas friendship bridge if they weren't such lazy wreckers.

MPs and their multiple bars in the House of Commons should perhaps stop getting pissed up at our expense and do some work too.

Top MPs would get 'so drunk they couldn't speak' during House of Commons booze binges barman reveals

Mind you on second thoughts with the laws they've been passing ...

 

[DotCommunist]

Does Liam Fox have a right to exist?

 

[DotCommunist]

thats a rhetorical question

 

[nino_savatte]

It wasn't sensible to ban fox hunting.

I've always been in favour of foxhunting as long as Liam Fox is the quarry.

 

[RedSkin]

RedSkin pls don't post pissed in future

All the other personal insults aside, you do realise by accusing me of being pissed at 11:00 am on a Saturday morning you are literally calling me an alcoholic. Is this correct? Just so I can understand where you are coming from.

no, it's not correct. lots of people who aren't dependent on alcohol might on occasion find themselves inebriated at opening time on a saturday morning. well, dozens anyway.

I think the technical term is a "farage of idiotic claims".

I think May's competence is hugely overrated. Having a tough no-nonsense image hardly makes you competent (it doesn't even make you tough, though I imagine she is fairly resilient) and neither does making it to the top of the Tory party. She's made some bizarre appointments so far, is plainly waffling on Brexit, and the infighting and counterattacks are starting already. Coasting on a referendum win for her faction and the support of the Tory press is not going to take her far.

Not that this is a bad thing mind.
