Could we just send the most incompetent politicians to the ISS and then impose 10 year quarantine periods on any returnees?
Is the ISS really big enough to fit the whole government?
You could create an overflow outside?

I understand as rejoining probably won't be feesible in the near future much like a Lib Dem government.
Indeed. Its good that old people voted to feck young people. And then as a thanks we spent 4 months stuck in our homes to keep them safe. Class.
The Sun's Director of Fashion @Jippy has rightly pointed out that the site is a pile of crap. They're just a right wing think tank. Came up in my Google feed and promptly blocked soon after.
But it's not going to be cheap.
Goodness me. You are older than I thought. What a memory eh. They don't make them like that anymore.
Something I don't quite understand yet: why is one referendum so decisive? To leave the fecking European Union because of one referendum is quite drastic, no?
What if in 20 years time people want another referendum and vote to join the EU again? You can do this every 10 years and the results can vary.
Again, how is 1 referendum so decisive?

Jo Swinson will be pleased. Lib Dems, perpetual Tory enablers.
Its illogical but its because the leavers, enabled by the right wing media, have painted one referendum as being the "will of the people". To question it is "treason".
It should have had a super majority too, but you know our country just loves the psycho drama that is brexit.
There were actually one referendum and two elections - if the public really wanted to stop Brexit, they were given enough opportunities.
Slightly disingenuous, in 2017 labour were still committed to leaving IIRC and 2019 you could easily argue that the percentage of votes for parties that wanted a second ref was higher than those who wanted to leave but placed across different parties. Tories had the luxury of being the one credible leave party (and the brexit party had made deals and stood down in certain seats too).
What about LibDems then? The public had the choice, if they really wanted to stay in the EU.
A better question is why was there a referendum at all? Moronic decision by Cameron.
That’s the point isn’t it, the Lib Dem’s in most peoples mind aren’t a credible party. Especially when general elections aren’t ONLY about Brexit. But like I said if you were to add up second ref parties in 2019 it is a bigger vote share than leave, but just across too many different parties. Hence why it is slightly disingenuous to say ‘you had your chance to remain’.
Anyway it really doesn’t matter, it’s happened now you and other brexiteers have to own what happens now with no excuses.

Be interesting to see how much push back this gets from some states and particularly if they throw the threat of leaving like the uk into the mix

Haha . Not quite that old - actually watched again it a few weeks ago on TV, don't think the new version will be quite so funny.
Agreed.. The Tories benefited by uniting the leave vote while the remain/second referendum vote was scattered across multiple parties. In our FPTP system this was a massive factor.
Also a general election is rarely decided by a single issue. Although Brexit factors certainly played a key role in 2019.
When was the last time the LibDems won an election?
True. It was to settle Tory infighting.
Leading into that question though is, what had fuelled the rise of the far right both within and external to the Tory party? UKIP etc.
Most of this has been fuelled by right wing media coverage influencing public opinion over a couple of decades.
Am I right in saying we will be subject to a certain amount of licenses for lorries that will add to the delay?
When does this start getting good?

I wonder if people are starting to understand why borders work the way they do on the continent? And why no one wants them.

They still won't understand until January. Over four years of explaining has not penetrated the Brexit mind.

I stayed an extra week. Still here and considering it.
c'mon we all know in January (despite calais and rotterdam functioning perfectly well) it will be the EU's fault
Yes amongst other things - also most lorries that cross the Channel are not British but if they're going to be stuck in endless queues would they even bother, time is money , they don't want their lorries and drivers stuck in the UK doing nothing.
If Johnson plays the dirty, you can see the customs on this side of the channel will stop every single British lorry and search it from top to bottom and go through the paperwork with a fine toothcomb.
