Politics POLL: Brexit Withdrawal Agreement

[Job]

Luckily it seems we all have.

 

[Job]

So..Sinn Fein eh.

Dabbling with gay EU licking progressive didnt last long.

Ireland general election: Sinn Féin surges to 22% in exit poll

Sinn Féin support a policy of "critical engagement with the EU", and have a "principled opposition" to a European superstate. It opposes an EU constitution because it would reduce the sovereignty of the member-state

They didn't get traction because of their EU policies, they got votes because of the housing crisis. Irish politics is hyper-local. And Sinn Fein won't be in power anyway, FF/FG won't let it happen.

 

[Job]

Very Gaelic.. Irish politics innit.

 

[Ormorof]

What does that even mean @Job makes no sense

 

[Job]

24.5% of the vote and the highest 2nd preference

Given the history of Fein...this is very dodgy ground for refusing a coalition.

Irelands just done a fuxit.

Literally been told by a guy that actually loves in Ireland that you're chatting shit.

But you're still preaching.

i know you're determined to pass this off as an inconsequential glitch..it's actually a seismic event.

Sinn Fein are now the only Irish party with major political influence both north and south of the Irish border, the European Union's new land border with the United Kingdom. Such is the seismic shift in Irish politics that Sinn Fein's demand for a united Ireland will be heard louder.

 

[Ormorof]

United Ireland has seemed inevitable since your lot voted for Brexit

They only fielded 47 candidates for a possible 160 seats, they will either be part of a coalition or very strong opposition

Means top 3 parties in Ireland were born out of conflict and civil war rather than the usual two

Again, I'll trust Gaffer on this more than I trust you.

I don't believe that the Irish are stupid enough like us to sacrifice Europe's fastest growing economy for some 18th century nationalistic ideals.

Like we did

With a quarter of the popular vote its pretty likely they'll be in government in one coalition or another; MacDonald wants an "everyone but FF/FG" coalition because SF would dominate such a group, but its pretty unlikely she can convince them all to join up, which she'd need for a working majority (some of the independents are too right wing or just ideologically unlikely to deal with SF) so a deal with Fianna Fail is probably the only way to create a "stable" government, but it will be interesting because FF will have the seats (and experience) while SF has the votes. But what it also means is that SF can't write the agenda in relation to the North. In addition, as I said earlier, they've been given votes on the basis of fixing housing and public services, NOT a united Ireland, and that's the yardstick they'll be measured on. People here really don't care that much about a united Ireland, its a nice to have, not a motivator, and if SF go off tilting at windmills instead of fixing what they've promised to fix, any coalition they are in will collapse in short order and SF will be out on their ear. Mary Lou MacDonald is too savvy for that (although she will definitely have to do a better job of keeping some of the major league fuckwits in her party in line), so I'd expect kid gloves in relation to NI for a few years at least. Of course if they do well in government (which I doubt, see the aforementioned fuckwits, some of the people who've just become TDs are dumb as rocks; the bar to being a TD in Ireland is alarmingly low; like 5000 votes low) then yes, SF will be agitating for a border poll sooner rather than later, but to be honest I couldn't care less about that, and let's be blunt, neither could most English people.

Of course we won’t have friction free trade. It’s AFTER the election. Everything I said before was bollocks. In fact I never said it. Fake news.

All the media keeps mentioning his brexit credentials, how Leo failed to capitalise on his brexit diplomacy.
Who gives a fuck..the little turd just slated the UK , licked the EUs ass and exit polls showed only 1% of people gave a shit about his brexit dealing.
It was actual issues that he failed miserably on...grandstanding on the world stage means jackshit to the voters.


Fail are starting to wobble about a Fein coalition.

Yeah great...a planefull of Yardies and we have to keep them because they might be a bit lost in Jamaica.

Give me a break.

Okay let's not talk about the human aspect of this because you won't care unless they're white.

So.

Explain to me how it's the responsibility of Jamaica to take on these people after were done with them after they've lived in the UK since they were toddlers.

Their crimes were a result of experiences in the UK not in Jamaica, or should we just impose our will on Jamaica because we're the British empire?

 

[Jupitus]

... or should we just impose our will on Jamaica because we're the British empire?

We can't just Ja-Make-em!!

 

[Scouse]

We can't just Ja-Make-em!!

I feel you're trying too hard to shoehorn a "she came of her own accord" joke in there m8

 

[Scouse]

It's very clear isn't it?

If we can legally kick criminals who've lived here since they were 6 months old then why should we give a fuck about how they feel? Just do it - we get rid of a load of fucking criminals.

Of course, Jamaica gets a load of criminals who don't know anything about Jamaica and it's probably way worse all round. Apart from for Blighty*, because we've gotten rid of loads of criminals that we don't give a shit about.


Britain (and Job) lacks class. It's clearly and obviously not the "right thing to do". But who gives a fuck about morality eh?

*ofc, that's still an arguable point.

He was convicted of dangerous driving which absolutely can lead to a prison sentence on its own.

 

[Job]

Seriously unlikely unless they are omitting the fact it was a high speed pursuit through built up areas that ended on a motorway and even then that length of sentence requires previous

So back to Brexit and now we are leaving suddenly all the EUs redlines evaporate into space and now they are offering a special one off Britain plus.

Zero tarriff..Zero quota....in return it wants a level playing field, which is very different wording from strict regulation alignment.

Finally reality strikes home....theyve just lost Britain....fucking lol.
All that fucking remainer bullshit..project fear and self haters.

You don't understand shit.

Regulatory alignment was the pre-condition for no regulatory checks at the border. Customs alignment was the pre-condition for no customs checks on the bnorder.

Regardless of zero tariffs and zero quotas we would have those. That is trade with very heavy friction.

And, as you say, they will only offer us zero tariff, zero quota if we sign up legally to heavy duty 'level playing field' clauses, which the likes of Canada don't have to sign up to since they are thousands of miles away. The EU hasn't conceded anything you moron.
