The whole play wedges the EU on Northern Ireland. Either the EU backs down to U.K. demands or the EU breaks the Good Friday Agreement. As a bonus the Tories get to send out tweets like the one above saying Labour sides with the EU over the U.K. If, as is highly likely, the IRA regard the Good Friday Accord as broken, then the consequences could be a return to bombs and bullets. No amount of tweets will cover their criminal failure then. Edited September 15, 2020 by meregreen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No amount of tweets will cover their criminal failure then. It will be a failure but it will be very easy to portray it as an EU failure. The U.K. won’t put up a border but the EU will need to to protect their single market. If the IRA start up again it would be described as the EU breaking the Good Friday Agreement and restarting the troubles in NI by going against the UKs wishes to keep the border open.

The only person I’ve ever wanted to punch in the face and have madly passionate sex with in equal measure. Whaaat. She's like a soulless, life-sucking ogre that has forced itself into the skin of a once potentially attractive person (stress on once and potentially), but the skin and the face don't fit the grim ogre's skull, and its jaw is all broken anyway, and the whole appearance is a horrific mess. Every time she speaks it's like the whole skin suit is going to fall apart. Each to their own though! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it was pointed out that it doesn't, you lied and now you are saying you never agreed to that. Hate this government so much, and agree with @Rolta, she is a horrible, horrible person.

Chindie Posted September 15, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted September 15, 2020 Priti Patel is amongst the purest examples of ones internal hatred visibly consuming them. You can see it working it's way through her, only the head hasn't quite given in yet but that's tainted with the look with someone smugly getting off on the smell of their own rot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post OutByEaster? Posted September 15, 2020 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted September 15, 2020 They threatened to sack their MP's for voting in opposition to this agreement when they first suggested it (and sacked 21 of them for doing so), now they've threatened to sack their MP's if they voted in support of this agreement. I'd love to hear from the 21 people who got the sack for having the right opinion at the wrong time. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The detail of Brexit is completely irrelevant to the majority of people in this country now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My psychoanalysis is different. I think with her it's all about ambition and achievement. Everything else is way down the list. So she'll do or say whatever to please those above her, or in a position to help her ambition. Other people, or principles simply don't register. The lack of emotional intelligence severely limits her suitability for a high level role. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve always seen sexual assault as risk and reward related to power. People do it if they think they can get away with it. People do it if they know they are protected or can ride it out. People do it if if they see it as nothing wrong and both right/status has led them to believe anything they want is theirs. All 3 of those statements are true in Conservative party and indeed any high level player in any political party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicola Sturgeon? Jemery Corbyns?... It's clearly the case that you've got to be a particular type of person to want to do sexual assault. There may be more of that type in politics or high up positions - people who feel entitled and feel the rules don't apply to them and so on, I dunno. But it's not all high ups. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
