Well I 'ope you Jerry basterds have the runs as bad as me
I'll fight 'em on the beaches to defend me lavatory
I'm shouting, "oi Herman, who won the fucking war?"
The fuckers pushed a gas pipe right underneath me door!

And our new football team song:


I'm actually surprised at the lack of salt on my social media, in all honesty. Here's the only piece I could find:

International politics is always petty. We'll see photoshopped pictures of Farage with six dicks in his ass before the end of negotiations.

Apparently no Brexiteers want to make the best of things, we all just want to kill all the poles and then go home and read the Daily Mail. Who's the delusional one here?

I assume something like this, only replace the octopus reaching around the globe with a bunch of supersized dicks reaching towards England.

But be that as it may, yeah, international politics has a lot of parallels to playground rules.

Most salt and autism relating to... well... modern politics in general is based on the mindset of a devastatingly large number of immature (wo)manchildren that look at everything through a lense of really childlike black-and-white understanding.
"My group = good and just; Other group = pure evil", it's really like some bland 90s PSA cartoon.

Even the name "Brexiteers" sounds like some corny villain from a Ted Turner cartoon.

"Captain Farage and the Brexiteers".
 
Britain prevails mates.

I honestly don't know enough about Nigel Farage or any of his other politics to legitimately endorse anything he's ever said. But I do think that we wouldn't be leaving the EU if it hadn't been for his incesent badgering of the issue - practically single-handedly since who the fuck else is in UKIP. So cheers Nigel.

I'm not giving up Weissbier though.

I'm wondering how the UK plans to get access to the single market again. They will have to gain EEA membership via rejoining the EFTA (which the UK was a founding member of in the first place), or by getting special agreements like Switzerland do. The likely thing they will do is rejoin the EFTA and get access that way, but I doubt bureaucracy will be in their favour considering how much salt is flowing from Brussels right now.

Every nation on God's Green Earth has access to the Single Market and this remaniac myth needs stabbing through the rotten heart.

The EFTA would mean we accept the four pillars which is political suicide in the UK as one of the big reasons for the UK voting to leave in the first sodding place. Indeed, the change of "Free movement of labour" to "people" was the biggest misstep the EU's possibly made which is resulting in the large movements of people within the EU now, which is keeping the poor areas poor and the rich areas rich.

The difference is wether we'd get tariff free access to the Single Market, who's average tariffs is about 4.7% with only some areas of insanity (200% on Garlic to protect the French Garlic Farmers, about 60% tax to protect French Sugar Beet Farmers) and around 10% on cars (Which protect German and French Car Makers). Services are barely effected wether we're "inside" the single market or not and are set for massive growth globally which'd benefit the UK more anyway.

The UK wants its own bespoke trading deal with the EU similar to CETA or the now dead TTIP, arguing that such a deal should have no hurdles as, by 2019 the legislations would still match perfectly with the EU's own rulings, and beyond that it can simply apply laws to that area of the economy and business side as it sees fit.

Merkel and Hollande however, want to piss about with a mythical "£50bn divorce bill" that nobody's quite sure really exists before they even speak on trade.

Another thing to note is the Commonwealth (Which frequently works with little fanfare in the background in the way only true british civil servants understand) called a rather unexpected inaugural meeting of the Commonwealth's Trade Ministers which seems to hint they know something others do not, and the UK's already stated its high priority trade partners are Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Singapore as a "first tranche" with South Korea, India and Guyana being in the second tier.

Mexico's already drafted a trade deal with the UK because talks were apparently that fucking easy.

Indeed, the Commonwealth Free Movement Area proposal seems to be quietly gaining traction as well and if that as combined with free trade agreements would create an anglosphere collective that has 70% of the USA's economic output.

One of the best things in the blogosphere right now is Guido Fawkes's "Despite Brexit" column.

I love that column because it all comes from the BBC and Guardian reporting every positive (higher trade investment, higher stocks closing figures, Boeing european HQ, Toyota and Nissan investment, Tata Steel's reprieve etc) with "Despite Brexit" on the end.

Whole situation makes me laugh as well considering who else is lined up ready for trade deals as well, especially as the UK's ready to align itself as a free trade champion should the USA go moderate/extreme protectionist.
 
I voted against it, but at least the UK isn't in danger of collapsing its economy or anything. There are some specific matters that could work out fairly well if our cards are played right.

That said, we're into the second term of the current government and their ideals and values are well known by this point. They've consistently been making the wrong choices at every turn, and I don't see this trend reversing now. Brexit isn't a boon, it's an oppurtunity. And if you're optimistic about the future, it means you're confident that the party of fucking things up is suddenly going to stop fucking things up.
 
Does this mean we can re-open the Brexit Chimpout thread again? For the fresh batch of salt?
