I thought the population had already voted for Welshit.

Yeah but you know what they are like, they have to have it explained to them about 5 or 6 times before they fully understand it.
That underground train will never get you to Euston in time…
I’ve already lost most of my sight in my left eye. That’s actually how I found out. Doctor at the eye hospital told me. It’s not great. Every part of you, especially the parts that move a lot, calcify, internal and external. Your heart moves a lot, for example, so a lot of PXE peeps have trouble with that.
Anyways, was totally gutted about it when I first found out. Took two weeks to accept it, when I basically realised I’d had it all my life, did fuck all to get it and could do fuck all about it. In short, I was no worse off from not knowing to knowing. In fact, I ended up better off because you know what needs avoiding. Also, there are folk that are far worse off than I am, so it’s difficult to get too pissed off about it.
That said, it was a wake up call that life was short. Why spend it compromising, or not saying what you think?

Some things are more important than Brexit spats or flauncing and being fucked off at shit written on a forum, or being worried about losing face by returning so quickly after decinding not to bother… I just wanted to say a couple of things. Firstly, I genuinely hope that you @pap have the best possible health outcome. Life is precious, sadly too short and so everyone deserves the best chance at it, so I wish you all the very best for the future
With that in mind, Ido find it odd that you see compromise as a weakness or failure or saying what you think without reagrd for its impact as justified… i just feel if anything it might make you more inclined for the opposite? Compromise is afterall what we do when we listen and respect other ideas or opinions. Its a mature recognition that despite all the insight we have gained from our own research, There is still so much that we have not discovered or learned that we cant possibly know it all … Compromise is NOT a bad thing, its a mature rational POV.
I have taken issue before with the whole Turkish thing, and we will probably continue to disagree on it. Whatever he is like as a person, whatever my naive understanding of forum culture at the time, he behaved like a bullying cunt…Whatever you think, I can take it as well as I give it but the fact you keep bringing that shit up is more indicative of the fact you have run out of any real rational argument - ‘lets try and embarass him about being such a wuss about Turkish’… I have no issue with accepting my naive approach on SWF… but that does not excuse him acting like a cunt.
A single post calling someone a bullshitter is not my best moment, but its also hardly in the same category as constant pisstake and trolling…
But anyway, life IS too short to worry about these things, and as I said I wish you and family all the best with managing whatever is to come… but would suggest that you will get more out it IF you did actually compromise. Saying what you think is all well and good, but not giving a fuck about its impact just because folks are strangers on a forum, does not show any of us in our best light. At the very least, if you are just going to say what you think regardless, you cant pull others up for doing the same.

Right hook incoming on the penis that has been mouthy but is giving up 40kg. It is still an option P. Just joking, although don’t think that is a get out of jail card. You will be fine. I know a thing or two about a thing or two and it is mainly cosmetic or sight based. If I don’t get hold of you, you will be pissing off people for more than most.
No disrespect Tokes but is that a google translate from Japanese?

I think he must have managed to get on @bearsy 's pre-stag stag @areloa-grandee .
Should he be posting on the WSPOAFN thread?
I’m not sure why so many people feel qualified to tell me how to post.

I’m a willing target, if it helps.
I’ll even take @pap side if that will make it more realistic.
Feast your eyes on this(was @pap correct all along?).
EU net migration has fallen as fewer EU citizens are arriving, especially those coming to look for work in the UK, and the number leaving has risen - it has now returned to the level seen in 2012," said Nicola White, head of international migration statistics at the ONS.
Will it help solve the housing problem?
Will it fuck(i’ve changed sides, sorry).
"The figures also show that non-EU net migration is now larger than EU net migration, mainly due to the large decrease in EU net migration over the last year. However, migration of both non-EU and EU citizens are still adding to the UK population.
You were hacked about a or two year ago. Company man.

Cheers for that papster. Not everyone’s cup of tea but I quite like Hitchens.

He at least speaks with a bit of conviction. His time away from the UK, living in Moscow at the time of the changeover, gives him a very interesting perspective, one which is invariably going to include a Moscow point of view.
On present issues, it was an interesting pitch from Corbyn and pals today, something which I think could prove to be an excellent bit of political manoeveuring. The long and short of it is that Corbyn wants _a _customs union in which the EU and the UK collectively set tariffs for goods from other countries.
It puts the cat among several pigeons. The EU can always say no, but not without looking like hypocrites. They’ve been complaining that the UK doesn’t know what it wants, and about the uncertainty that’s creating. Labour have offered a bit of certainty, far more than the Tories.
That certainty is already proving popular with business leaders, another reason this is a decent move. If they like this measure, yet are denied it by the EU, then sympathy with the Union could drop among both businesses and Remainers in general.
If the EU agrees, all hunky dory for Corbyn and Labour too. If they can get an agreement done in principle while being the opposition while the present government can’t, it won’t look great for Theresa May and the Third Stringers.
It feels to me that he wants a piece of the same cake to eat as the tories. Any custom union on the scale we will want is going to come with free movement, ECJ primacy and a restriction on unilateral trade deals - the EU has been consistent about that through out.
I suspect that this is more about short term political opportunism that a viable long term Brexit strategy. They are trying to woo the tory rebels to defeat the government and bring about an election.

Good to see a bit of pragmatism and grown up behaviour from the leader of the opposition, taking the initiative and highlighting what we all know anyway, that May is totally incapable of doing the job she is paid for. Great to see the right wingers frothing at the mouth too. And of course the ‘wogs begin at Dover’ brigade, who make up the majority of the so called working class brexiters would have been choking on their sausage and chips at Wetherspoons today.
And our esteemed Foreign Secretary is quick off the mark after accusing Corbyn of political opportunitism, by calling for British airstrikes on Syria. Nothing like a good old military campaign as a distraction eh! Maybe we should drop Boris on them, that will surely have the jihadist terrorists we are supporting coming out with their hands up!
Funniest of all though, was the DUP Brexit spokesman, Sammy Wilson accusing Corbyn of “cheap political opportunism”. Haha. From the party who took a 2 billion quid bribe to prop up our pathetic useless government that is a bit rich. Still, at least he can’t be accused of being cheap!
