Politics So...Europe then?

[Raven]

Cameron's little hum yesterday was the most British thing I have seen in years.

 

[TdC]

Anyway.

Industrial scale money laundered too big to prosecute - and George Osbourne, elected Tory chancellor, in on protecting the criminals.

wow that's pretty mortifying tbh 0_o

Report to your local registration centre immediately, warns May

The fuck? Concentration camps and gas chambers waiting for those that don't "comply" or what?

 

[sayward]

On seeing the headline Theresa MAY 2016 all my hub could say was look she's out of date already!

 

[Raven]

The fuck? Concentration camps and gas chambers waiting for those that don't "comply" or what?

It's firmly satirical. Although possibly true.

 

[Raven]

Anyway, everything continues to be rosy within the EU.

Another state on the brink.

It's not going well for Eagle already.

I see the eagle has been put on Gardening leave.

Corbyn's allowed on the ballot.

Corbyn wins.

Labour Party splits?

 

[Embattle]

Certainly not going to win an election with him.

Wow the independent have reported that the petition reputedly signed by 4.3 million requesting a second referendum is to be debated on 5th Sept.....

The remainders ducks all seem to be lining up in a row oO

I doubt they'll be in a position to do anything about it. Plus 3 million or so were fake.

 

[Raven]

Labour, the gift that keeps on giving.

I'm just astounded it's being debated

 

[Raven]

It has to be, that is the agreement.

I doubt there will be many MPs in attendance though.

 

[Raven]

In other news. The pound is continuing to gain against the Euro and Dollar. Fair way to go and unlikely to get back up to the over inflated values of the few days before the referendum but very promising.

The hysteria also seems to be dying down in the business sector too.

Good times.

 

[Embattle]

Not any of the ones debated before went any where irc.

 

[Scouse]

Certainly not going to win an election with him.

Certainly won't be voting leave...

I don't know. I think that's why people fear him - there are enough people out there that they may actually go for it. Another "fuck the establishment" protest vote.

 

[SilverHood]

In all fairness, in 2012, a major bank being criminally convicted and losing its ability to conduct business in USD was a massive risk to the system. The Jenga Tower of the financial system was already on the ropes. Fine them of the proceeds and then some more, so it's never worth doing when caught. They always get caught.

Now that criminal convictions have happened to several banks without them losing their US banking license, I'm sure there's no more Mr nice guy from the justice department. The only fallout I recall came from Deutsche owning the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Las Vegas, where criminals are prohibited from owning and running casinos.

Thats because they know the powers that be have put brexit to bed.

That petition that had 4,000,000+ signatures that people were saying got cancelled... isn't cancelled it seems. Got this as a response this morning.

"You recently signed the petition “EU Referendum Rules triggering a 2nd EU Referendum”:
Petition: EU Referendum Rules triggering a 2nd EU Referendum

The Petitions Committee has decided to schedule a House of Commons debate on this petition. The debate will take place on 5 September at 4.30pm in Westminster Hall, the second debating chamber of the House of Commons. The debate will be opened by Ian Blackford MP."

 

[Raven]

Oh, so at least 1 MP will turn up then, as he is chair.

Did anyone watch the program last night on European immigration, was trying to but the missus was on the phone at 100db the entire time.
Very revealing, but also very left wing, all the immigrants featured were teachers and skilled labour, with cute daughters crying thrown in and grandmas sat in mud.
Anyone know what it was called.

The BBC thing? I started watching it last night but fell asleep.

The one with the guy who owned a restaurant?

 

[Job]

Thats it..Exodus to Europe on bbc2.
Thought it was pretty good overall.

 

[Embattle]

The amount of coverage being given to Cameron handing in his notice is ridiculous.

 

[Yoni]

I dont think he did a bad job. He had a tough ask with the issues he inherited... So for one I am sorry to see him go, especially with the alternatives ie May with a broken opposition.

 

[Job]

Even the Guardian is praising him, they are actually in the strangest situation of lauding a Tory while despairing of the truest Labour man they have had for a long tine.
