    I cannot believe you're comparing the complexities of Northern Ireland's political and economic situation with a bloke building a house

    A bit like a Prime Minister talking about Peppa Pig in a speech to the CBI.

    There's huge unrest and tension over the Protocol. It's more than the DUP

    Yes, you've just compared Will's post to Boris Johnson's garble about Peppa Pig. Fully agree.

    I am simplifying it to try and explain as it is a fundamental to the agreement and the U.K. bullshitted …and yet you’re still trying to blame the Eu…

    I know our government lied, you know they lied, as I’ve explained on an unbelievably simplistic fashion it is fundamental to the agreement.. yet you continue to trivialise it.

    Like I’ve said you either don’t understand the importance of the northern island issue, which a simplistic example would benefit or you’re being disingenuous

    Can you imagine a Labour-led coalition? It would be bloody hilarious!

    Rayner would have to become PM, because Sir Kier would have to resign as he’s pledged not take the UK back into the Uber-lobby Club, and Wee Jimmy Krankie would be her Nick Clegg, simultaneously working to get the UK back into Da Bloc and her fellow Sweaties out of the UK. Presumably there’d have to be a role for Ms Lucas of Brighton, maybe Dept of Energy, and she could oversee the resumption of fracking, the culling of all those farting cows and the harnessing of David Lammy to a turbine to increase wind power generation.

    I’d ****ing **** my trollies watching all of that unfold.

    Thought that might wind up the cabal a bit. :biggrin:
    Wills, your memory of what happened after the referendum and all the blocking that went on, to such an extent that government couldn't operate, is disturbingly poor.

    col the difference was that was legal challenge… what the government has done over NI is suicidal business practice or mass incompetence. I got bored of the challenges tbh. However they were well within legal boundaries to do so… if the Torys tried the **** they’re pulling now to any project I was working on I’d be straight on to the legal team suing the **** outta them.

    I know exactly what it is and it perfectly describes our collection of left thinking posters on here.
