the day after the deadline: can the union survive brexit and other deep questions

never hurts to restate the risible clownness of SK. that election documentary last year produced such warm feelings and benevolent pleasure.

also by the time this ran the BBC was clearly caught off balance by a state of affairs it completely didn't expect, but alas these fuckers are still in government and although it doesn't feel like many saboteurs have been crushed, it still sucks shit! and Kinnock still exists!

hot Kinnock content

This reads like someone who has never eaten an orange for some reason deciding to lie about eating an orange every day pic.twitter.com/75ybSw52L9

lol! what kind of a prick can't even talk about eating an orange without a modicum of conviction?

im getting body shock just reading that

"they know me now" sounds v ominous

national min wage doesn't cover the agony of some jaunty bantz with a Kinnock on a daily basis.

I could imagine him practising his benevolent uncle Stevie act, by winking at himself in the mirror and so on.

i read that as 'wanking' at first and it still rang true tbh

it seems to be a strong family trait tbh.

vanity and wankerdom!

and shouting "Well, ALL-RIGHT>>>!!!!" to the mirror.

Whichever scenario...

i can't stop thinking about the phrase 'i chop up the orange and chomp on it', it's real william burroughs language-virus stuff

"I stomp up the orange and Stomp on it"

I can imagine him googling "how does earthling eat orange" prior to the interview

not the first mp called stephen who's had a hard time eating an orange tbf

it's like he got his earth primates mixed up, ended up with this google image search result, and just ran with it

oof xp

damn

at least the RIP Stephen could chomp an orange with conviction, damnit!

curious as to how SK assimilates the porridge tbh, possibly snorting lines of Quaker oats off the kitchen counter, idk

i assume he just dribbles stomach acid straight from his mouth into the bowl like jeff goldblum in the fly, then slurps up the resultant half-digested paste before heading off to horrify the traumatised staff at costa

If Team Corbyn really wanted to kill his career stone dead they could just ask him how he eats Pringles.

does look like a resultant paste cunt

is that someone chews up a digestive biscuit and then rolls the "resultant paste" into a ball in their hand, then eats it again? Someone should tell him that is how most of the legit concerns electorate actually eat biscuits!

so Humphrys says people in "hum-drum" low paid jobs have less stress than titans of intellect like him who rightly get paid a fortune for doing the live radio broadcasting equivalent of pissing yourself on the bus on a daily basis.

that's why there's so much competition for low paid jobs

tbf if Humphrys had a conscience then his life would be pretty stressful

nothing less stressful than the precarity of a minimum-wage existence, those jammy fucking poors have got it made in the shade

humphrys seems to be getting worse, but the silver lining I take from that I think he is not far from making a career ending type faux pas the way he is degenerating recently, and if even if he avoids that outcome then death can't be that far off!

it is very sad news that some London criminals failed to do any physical harm to Michael McIntyre during a robbery. Have these people got no professional pride or decency? They could have at least smashed his fucking teeth in with a clawhammer ffs!

coordinated front pages from a bunch of northern newspapers today on the ongoing arriva rail north shitshow, lots of anger

Even Tory MPs are dunking on Grayling right now. Obviously they represent directly affected constituencies but it's not looking good for him.

cry me arriva

sorry, just wanted to say that

it's pity they didn't make him wait a bit longer at the door.

fuck the north, let's expand heathrow again.

One of the reasons Tory MPs are rebelling is that a lot of them represent marginal constituencies in commuter towns, and there aren't many better ways to piss your more affluent constituents off than ensuring them several hours of grinding transport misery a day. Especially when those constituencies are filling up with lifelong Labour voters priced out of London.

and also fuck the disabled, as operators like TransPennine Express and Govia Thameslink Railway are running full services without wheelchair access with the full blessing of this government.

xxp otm. I thought about this last year and I would be very surprised if the long-running Southern Rail debacle wasn’t a factor in Amber Rudd almost being ousted.

It’s also robbing the government of one of their arguments against renationalisation (service being worse under BR) which obviously plays well for Labour.

xp very true and Southeastern were running trains without working toilet facilities for weeks and weeks which also made the services near-unusable for people with certain disabilities and long term conditions. There were reports of people wetting themselves on trains.

sorry, just wanted to say that

You've been on ILX long enough to know not to apologize for puns - it was a good one too.

I just saw a mortgage advice TV advert that revolved around an argument over not being able to afford avocados. Clearscore I think the company was called.

i mean where do you even start with this one

Muhammad Ali would have seen Brexit for the revolting racist selfish nasty policy that it is and he’d have fought it https://t.co/Fak1EUJt2X

brexit, or as i prefer to call it, the tussle in the brussels

there it is

This and the ‘I soon showed my cleaner/handyman the error of their Brexit ways’ amongst the FBPE is just AAAARGH

Lol! Everything the Corbyn twitter acct commemorates (including international disasters and sporting personalities/cultural icons etc) is subject to masses of idiotic FBPE type commentary on a daily basis.

Imagine putting a photo of you meeting a grimacing Cherie Blair up as your Twitter profile background.

it's easy to mock people like Tim Walker but it's also funny
