I think the big mistake for the Lib Dems was thinking that they only had to hold off Johnson until he was forced to delay Brexit. Polling suggested that his support would collapse at that point, and they'd be looking at gaining fifty to a hundred seats.

However, that obviously didn't happen. With hindsight, it's pretty obvious to see that Johnson's support held up because he was successful in pinning the blame on external factors - including a hapless Labour party who'd never really had a say in it - and Farage conveniently throwing in the towel helped too.

That does not sound sincere:
jamest wrote:My only hope tonight is that you're all feeling as miserable and lost as you've made US - the majority - feel over the last three years. Hahaha. :cheers:


You can't wish people misery and then pretend you're some sort of philanthrope or well-wisher.

My misery concerned the possible demise of democracy and the political credibility of Britain itself(!), which most here seemed to think was of much less importance than their own personal needs (mostly financial), as if The Conservative Party were some kind of new Nazi/facist party or something, poised suddenly to destroy all welfare and social systems and wealth. That apparently, is your collective misery, which is fucking pathetic - especially when weighted with a Britain (now) devoid of political credibility having (now, if you had all been successful) destroyed its democratic credentials.

You all sold Britain and democracy out, for your selves, so you should be ashamed of yourselves. You also lost, yet not one of you have shown any semblance of humility or apologised for your selfishness. You don't have to apologise to me, but you should apologise to the people en masse who obviously put democracy and Britain's political credibility above their own selfish agendas.

There is such an enormous gap between the genuine views and sentiments you express and the way you seem to wish to be perceived I marvel that you don't get whiplash from the cognitive dissonance. You started this conversation with absolute spite and malice, why are you suprised where it ended up?

Where did I tell any of you to fuck off during this conversation? Where did I openly try and get anyone here to be banned, or try to turn the conversation to one of getting me banned? The spite and malice is on your side of the fence, completely.

If I want you to feel collectively miserable after the election, it's for being as naive and selfish as you all have been and for having no care whatsoever for democracy and Britiain's political credibility during the processes before the election. Yes, you deserve to be miserable if you have stooped so low. You should also all thank the heavens that you lost, because a Britain devoid of political and democratic credibilty would have signalled the end of the status quo as we know it.

How much social intelligence do you think it shows to lecture (actually fucking lecture!) someone with terminal cancer about how to get better?

Don't be an arsehole. I wished her well and advised that positive thinking would have been an aid to that, which didn't amount to a lecture.

Should not paying the slightest attention to what they've said make them feel better? Should condescending to them make them feel better?

I have condescended nothing, other than political naivity and selfishness, and I'll be doing that to my deathbed regardless of the number of pricks I encounter.

These, by the way, are rhetorical questions. I'm not looking for answers and certainly not for mere retorts. I would absolutely love it if you just went away and quietly thought about what sentiment you were trying to convey and whether you honestly think this sentiment could ever be conveyed by the approach you took. Would, for example, it ever be possible to show interest, concern or care for somebody's wellbeing while ignoring everything they've told you about that wellbeing?

How arrogant of you to ask me to go away and contemplate everything, whilst you remain here with your stupid smug smile upon your face, thinking that you'd made a worthy point. :lol:

Do with that what you will, it's off topic so I shan't say any more.

You said too much, so keep your gob shut in the future and there'll be no need for me to put you straight. :nono:

Shut up, james.

yet the notion that the NHS is not going to exist nor that you will not have access to medical care after The Conservatives won on Thursday/Friday, is utterly ludicrous.


If we look past the atrocious grammar for a moment, we can see how you have manufactured two points for me which I did not express. You’re completely useless.

I mean, you might be forgetting this


I’m ill, not stupid. Believe me, I have forgotten nothing about having lived the last 9 years under a Tory government. It’s why I feel incredibly despairing of living that way for another five.

but we've already had 9 years of a Tory government in a financially crippled Britain/World.


Yes, dear. I am well aware. You don’t appear to be computing. It’s that experience which leaves me fearful of more time under the tories.

Don't worry about the politics, that's currently all shades of bollocks everywhere, whatever colour your flag is.


Oh do shut up, you tiresome, pompous arse.

Please keep positive regardless.


Shut the fuck up.

not liking this negativity on your part as it's not good for you.


As usual, you are completely clueless; I am very confident of my own abilities and of my brilliant doctor. Unfortunately I don’t have the ability to remove myself entirely from reality like you can, so that you can with a straight face first of all crow about your success and gloat directly into people’s faces, and then later attempt to claim that you are simply unselfishly acceding to what people want. The duller among us frequently mistake being realistic with being pessimistic. And they keep doing it. It’s been my experience over the years that those with the mantra ‘think positive’ are the ones most likely to fall apart the moment something doesn’t go their way.

Oh - and do not fool yourself that you are any less selfish than the rest of us. In fact you show signs of the opposite being true.

Just focus upon being well.


You just do not seem to be able to stop offering your useless advice to people who know ten times more about their situation than you do. You look like a dick when you do this.

If they don't shaft me here, I want to see you personally shafting me for many years to come, so to speak.


I couldn’t give two shits what you want. Again, you are completely deluded. Do you honestly think that what you claim to hope would be something I’m even passingly interested in? You shouldn’t, you’ve been corrected enough. If you do, you’re even more of a fucking idiot than I thought. My dogs are cleverer than you - they at least learn from repetition. Of course if you’re a troll, you are going to pretend you never heard so you can keep doing the thing you have been specifically instructed not to do.

Just get/think well, please.


I have an incurable disease. I’m not getting ‘well’, you fool. Keep your bulbous conk out of things which don’t concern you.

Everything concerns me,


Don’t be a tosser please. I realise that’s as worthwhile as telling water not to be wet, but someone needs to at least try to tell you that you look like a prick when you take a stranger’s illness and claim you have anything to do with it.

otherwise I wouldn't have bothered about anything over the last decade-or-two other than finding myself a quality full-length mirror.


Jesus, you are completely self-absorbed, aren’t you. Once again, why would you think for a second that it matters to me how you run your odd little existence, or how long for?

I've offered my best wishes to you and you've farted in my face. No worries. You still have my best wishes.


No, I’m afraid you’ve quite spectacularly done exactly the opposite, when you hoped I was feeling miserable and lost. Imagine that. You wished a cancer patient misery and a sense of loss, all because you’re too stupid to grasp the fact that people here and others who don’t share your political views are nevertheless proper human beings with lives, loved ones and feelings, and not just cardboard cut-outs for you to say words at. We have one over on you, in that we actually remember what leaks out of the corner of your gob from one minute to the next. This is why you can fuck right off. Your words are meaningless, because they have no integrity, and any circumstance you run across, you are only capable of seeing as useful fodder for constructing your pathetic alternate reality. So, you know. Fuck off.

Happy fuckin' Xmas dear.


Shut up, twat.

I respect the place where you're at, so to speak, full of fear/panic etc., so I'll let your hatred of me go without retort. In fact, if it helps, call me a cunt whenever you like. I certainly won't complain and I'm sure none of the other members here will either.

I'll leave you alone from now on as long you don't ask me any questions. Goodbye dear.

What possible difference does some random, unquantified amount of "moaning" (whatever you mean by that) have anything at all to do with whether a people get to decide for themselves if they stay or not?

Regardless, yes!

Er, does this mean that regardless of the incredibly vague quantity of "moaning" you're talking about, you do think the EU should have a say?

No jamest, Brexit sold British democracy out, Brexit has damaged our political credibility by holding a vote simply against status quo with no tangible defined alternative. Brexit has attacked British sovereignty by taking away our seat at the heart of Europe, denying us our say. It will also leave us crippled in FTA talks to come as the world knows we are desperate to get deals before our economy collapses.
The economics are important but I put those secondary to idiotic voting for unicorns over national interests.

As for your patronising and vacuous "think yourself better" remarks to Fallible I find those reprehensible and insincere. Show some respect.

Dear cretin, try to follow the thread of a single point from one post to another. Your misery? What are you talking about?

which most here seemed to think was of much less importance than their own personal needs (mostly financial), as if The Conservative Party were some kind of new Nazi/facist party or something, poised suddenly to destroy all welfare and social systems and wealth. That apparently, is your collective misery, which is fucking pathetic - especially when weighted with a Britain (now) devoid of political credibility having (now, if you had all been successful) destroyed its democratic credentials.


Your fantasy of the moment appears to be that when things turn out the way you like them, those involved in making that happen are noble, selfless creatures, acting for the good of democracy, while those who think differently are selfish gluttons, greedy for food , shelter and life. Whenever you come out with toss like this, I immediately find myself wondering why you even bother to set up a scenario where some are good and true while others are evil scum, since you think we’re all God anyway. Then I remember that your ‘philosophy’ is nothing but a pile of useless crap and get on with my day.

You all sold Britain and democracy out, for your selves, so you should be ashamed of yourselves. You also lost, yet not one of you have shown any semblance of humility or apologised for your selfishness. You don't have to apologise to me, but you should apologise to the people en masse who obviously put democracy and Britain's political credibility above their own selfish agendas.


You absolute tool. You think ‘the people en masse’ put ‘political credibility’ (the fuck?) above their own agendas? Why on earth do you think this? Why now do you assume that the general public put themselves second to ‘democracy’, out of all the tines they’ve voted precisely for what will serve each of them? Why the fuck do you think politicians spend time and money telling everyone what they will get if they vote for them? It’s always a toss-up with you whether you’re stupid or a troll, but this tips it. I mean I suppose you can be a stupid troll, but hey, it’s Christmas.


Don't be an arsehole. I wished her well and advised that positive thinking would have been an aid to that, which didn't amount to a lecture.


Your wishes are even more useless than your regular words. That’s point 1. Point 2 is that you’re not fit to advise a dog on how to lick its own arse, let alone advise me on how to think. Finally, point 3 concerns the matter of how, as well as all the other cod-psychology you appear to have fallen for hook, line and sinker, you still appear to think that plastering a gormless smile on and ‘thinking positive’ helps anything. You’re like the twonk who asked me if I’d thought about making my diet more alkaline, then came back and asked me again...well, because you should try it, because despite the fact that you have the best doctors, the best diagnostic tools and the best medications all available to you, making sure you eat more beetroot will be the thing that tips it for you. You’re like a self-help twat. I’m just idly imagining you being able to see me living a day of my life and what your reaction would be, when it’s not some wretched scene of a ruined husk languishing in bed crying all day. Your brain would fall out of your arse.


Should not paying the slightest attention to what they've said make them feel better? Should condescending to them make them feel better?

I have condescended nothing, other than political naivity and selfishness, and I'll be doing that to my deathbed regardless of the number of pricks I encounter.


You won’t, but thanks for the totally unexpected hyperbole.

Only one person here has said too much. In fact, I think Thommo should say everything from now on. The day you put anyone straight on anything is the day you release a book entitled ‘How to be the Ultimate Cock Womble Across all Universes Simultaneously While Also Rubbing Yourself Off With a Single Bitcoin, illustrated edition’.

Newspeak. From the endo of Jan Brexit will be over, done,finished, gone from our collective consciousness.

Boris Johnson has ordered officials to drop the term “Brexit” after Britain leaves the EU on January 31, HuffPost UK has learnt.
Downing Street will also refuse to refer to the UK-EU free trade agreement to be negotiated next year as a “deal”, arguing that the prime minister’s withdrawal agreement is the Brexit deal.
Johnson is so keen to show Brexit will be “done”, as he promised in the election, that No.10’s Brexit press team will be renamed after January 31, with “Europe and economy” one new name being floated by officials.

I don't know if it'll really happen on Jan 31 as Bojo the clown is swearing up and down it will, but I don't see it not eventually happening, short of a third jacobite uprising happening and succeeding.
