So now she's saying that she wants a 4th go at her deal while still saying a second referendum is undemocratic. She's an absolute farce.

I love how none of us can be bothered posting in this thread. It's like "What's the point?"

My official advice at work is to avoid purchasing goods from the UK. We can't trust that they'll be delivered in time, or at all.

Why not? The UK so far is still in the EU.

So far.
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

Work is so chilled out since we moved all of our clients to our new Dutch business. Brexit still has massive implications for us but we kind of have a handle on it now. I find myself more sanguine about the outcome because I'm so wrung out from it. I really don't want to leave but I'm pretty much thinking "fuck it". Which is bad. It's what they want.

I would say that now is the best time to buy from the UK. You can get good deals and companies will be happy to have the business.
How many fucking people do I have to hammer in order to get that across.

Welp. 31st October the new date. So this drags on even further.

But were I to think like a Brexiter with a "I got mine, screw the rest of you" I am a little bit pleased cos I'm going to Spain in July...

See, that's the Trick - the Treat is full of poison.

The actual Treat would be if they cancel the whole bloody mess (wishful thinking I know).

I'd just like someone to say 'the leave campaign was based on obvious lies, and was illegally funded. Therefore the people voting were deceived, and did not fully know what they were voting for. The referendum is now deemed null and void. Another referendum will be considered, but as it's not deemed to be in the countries best interest by leading economists, we will be listening to them, and taking their advice, and not going into the street and asking a load of ill informed, mostly racist old bigots who have problems with potholes, passport colours and lightbulbs, to decide the future of the country.'

So that's the story. And what was the real lesson? Don't leave things in the fridge.

His own party would betray him in an instant and then help the other parties to destroy him to make sure such a creature never rises again. And the populace would hail this as a good thing. Somehow.
