I don't see them entering into government with O' Neill as first minister

Totally

This is a far bigger hurdle for them than any protocol or customs hoo-ha

What makes it hard for them to agree to the new framework, isn't the contents of it, or that they just love saying 'no' (they do)
It's that they'd be given up their biggest excuse to not go back to Stormont, and have to kiss the IRA's ring (as they see it)

To celebrate the new agreement waxing salons in NI have a special offer the "Rishi Back, crack and sunak"


This offer is valid until the DUP says so.

Offer is now invalid

Well maybe which is a little ridiculous when you consider that the NI assembly has a joint ministerial position literally a first and second minister with SF already having being second minister for the last quarter of a century. The unionist vote seemed to be moving two ways to either a harder vote like TUV or say a softer Alliance Party who I think don't describe themselves as Unionist at all. So maybe a party like that will continue to grow with the Unionist vote being split among different party's being one reason as to why SF gained a majority. I thinks it's deserving for the DUP however who were all in with Brexit from the very start and cosy with the ERG and Arron Banks etc. They maybe did succeed in partitioning the UK from EU just not one specific the part of the UK but maybe that's going to far.

SNP has just elected a guy of Pakistani heritage as the new FM.

UK PM is of Indian heritage.

If the scots indy movement gets over the line in the next few years it'd be delicious if people of those backgrounds were in change during the partition of GB.

to be fair, that was quick.
I'd have guessed they would have hung onto their own delusions that they didn't in fact make a huge mistake, a bit longer.

I guess the stark glaring reality of things going to shit, and the realization that the lads who drove this have mainly fucked off to Sunnier EU climates, might focus the message.

Sure now is the perfect time to move to Northern Ireland lads. You're still allowed live there, and it's conceivably slightly less scuppered. Or not. Who knows.

 

[magicbastarder]

it's gas though that it's not just a gap of a couple of percentage points; it's nearly a factor of two in the difference.

Confidence in the EU was still higher than the gov in 2016 according to that.

Has anyone bought anything online from the UK recently?
How did the additional charges work out?

Bought a tape. Value = 6.50. Excise Duty = 0.00. Customs Duty = 0.00. VAT = 1.20. Admin Fee = 3.50.
So basically doubled the cost, ugh...
(numbers are approximate)

I didn’t even get as far as customs charges there a few minutes ago. Saw a second hand book dealer advertise a book I’ve been looking for on Instagram. Clicked through, £30 for it but a decent price. Add to cart, it adds £25 for shipping via Royal Mail!

There probably is a Scotland thread?

Nicola Sturgeon's house being searched for evidence.

What really struck me is that it looks like a relatively normal house and car combo.

This thread is for Brexit

But sickos here use it for talking about what's going on generally in English politics, like it's some hot girl who will never even know their name

i bought a jumper from this "EU" branded shop, which turned out to be based of out the UK.
I didn't know this at the time.
They sent the jumper, and then months later FedEx independently came looking for close to 90 Euro in various charges, so almost doubled to cost of the fucking jumper. But at that point months had passed and I wasn't in a position to send the thing back.

Long story short: download your jumpers.

Takeaway: Knit your books
