Another Brexit Victory!

[Squarewheelbike]

Glory be! As anyone who saw the Mail on Sunday yesterday, now we are out from under the oppressive Brussel's jackboot, we will once again be able to stamp the Crown mark on the glasses from which we drink our Great British imperial measured pints of beer! Hussar! Only problem with the story of course is that it's all bollocks! The EU never made us take the Crown off and we never did, except in the minds of the breximorons happily fuelled by the likes of Boris and Farage, who of course peddled many lies to stir up a sense fear and loathing in enough minds to get brexit over the line and enrich their personal fortunes. And they all fell for it, the pint mugs!

Wrong fucking board mate.
I'd never heard of this, so maybe it's TRUE inside your head.


Anyway, I'm off to buy 5 pound of kilos.

Great, that'll be £2.27p please!

Without question, the most satisfying outcome of Brexit is that six years on Remainiacs like you are still frothing out of every orifice.

Anyway, seeing as though you're using pint glasses for your latest diatribe - and just to show theres no hard feelings from me, have a pint 500ml glass of your favourite Best Bitter on me.

Cheers Prost

Joke and completely backwards of a suggestion if true. Its probably just a leak put out by Boris to make little englanders feel nostalgic over jubilee. No fucker born after the 70s uses imperial measures apart from fisherman. The metric system is genius and easy, its all divisible by 10. In what world is it easier to describe something as 7/16th of a inch! If you want apples you just pick 6 in number, you don't ask for 2lbs and 2oz

It was all bollocks anyway. The EU never stopped us selling in imperial. I remember the anti EU press we wouldn’t be served pints unless we asked for half a litre and that was in 1998. Never happened.Even the metric Martyr, all he was asked to do by trading standards was put metric alongside his imperial as to not to confuse any customers he had under the the age of 35.

Give the EU puppets an inch and they'll take a yard. 

[Bill Buxton]

Seriously though Brexit derangement syndrome is some sort of serious mental issue with some people. Have they never heard the phrase “ get over it and move on”?

[PoliteDwarf]

I think it's just attention seeking. If living in the EU was so much better they would have moved there.

I agree with you. They go on and on about the “ disaster that is Brexit” but wouldn’t dream of living in the EU. I think there is also a big element of being very bad losers. They think themselves morally and intellectually superior to the Brexiters. They simply can’t get over the notion that a majority simply didn’t agree with them.

[PoliteDwarf]

A sense of of entitlement perhaps. If you didn't like the ale in a pub you would just drink the pop in there or find a pub with better ale. You wouldn't stand outside weeping about it for six years.

The EU was a great success at spending UK money.
My passport was stamped in Spain the other week, I though you Cheeky bastards, its British tourists and British EU money that pulled your country up to modern day standards.

Anyway, fuck you very much.

If you'd said "metre" it might have got a laugh!

Interestingly today's Daily Heil has followed on with it's Sister-papers theme with an unhinged rant from Peter Hitchen on the evils of all things metric, stating it was pretty much down to the worst of the "French Revolutionaries" and "Bolsheviks" with the UK and USA the only ones brave enough to stand up to it! And of course it was illustrated with a large picture of a frothing pint of ale with Crown mark to the front.

I didn’t vote Brexit

But the only thing I am reminded about is how utterly stupid the people still talking about it look

No offence SWB but maybe it’s time for a wake up call

I think it's indicative of what's trending in the news, particularly in certain parts of the right wing press. The Mail is pro-Boris and at the moment it's fair to say he's about as popular as a fart in a spacesuit. The calls from the Mail and other sections of pro-Boris media for a return to "good old" £SD are growing to distract from his currant bad press and to remind his backers of his "heroic" fight against the tyranny of Brussels! The fact that decimalisation happened nearly two years before we joined Europe, is of course being conveniently glossed over. The fact that the cheers that greeted the first car the arrived at St Paul's this morning turned to boo's when Boris stepped stepped out, means they'll be redoubling their efforts!

Who said we are going back to shillings and tanners etc.

As I said above it's trending in sections of the right wing press like the Mail, who'll be happy it's making it's way to radio and television news. Basically seems  it's some sort of "operation save daft posh twat" with the Tories free falling in the polls. With growing unease in the red wall seats and beyond, it seems some less secure of the back benchers think it's time to move now. Others are asking for calm, but with bye elections looming another round of results like the last lot would seem to make his position untenable. Question is though who to take over, Sunak is pretty much out of the running, so who else?

I’m not talking about Daily Mail readers being ignorant but people particularly like OTR

Last OCTOBER I said: if anyone bothered to follow the news on FMTTM they would know both Starmer and Reeves (who will be in control of the economy) has said that freedom of movement has ended, and stated that no junior MP can make any announcement without her consent.”
That was said at Labour conference  in SEPTEMBER as anyone following labour would know and it was all over the news and hardly a secret

This is FMTTM 4 months later

https://fmttmboro.com/index.php?threads/labour-10-points-ahead-of-tories.27159/page-8#post-631215

And by the 19th of Jan Starmer gave this interview

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2022/jan/19/stop-talking-about-the-problem-fix-the-bloody-thing-keir-starmer-on-boris-johnsons-parties-and-his-plan-to-win-power

And on continued a discussion on Fly me after Starmers interview (19th jan) with people saying things like the “information was there” implying there’s a section of the electorate who are unable to research the information available -  which is ironic given they literally couldn’t be arsed to follow the news from SEPTEMBER and they could be talking about themselves

The truth is that Labour is now openly discussing brexit opportunities and specifically manufacturing and trade regardless of what the Mail is telling you about pint glasses

Like I said I didn’t vote brexit but some people need a reality check

[Winston]

So there's a right wing media conspiracy to talk about pint glssses to save big dog

Did you read where I said some people need a wake up call?

Also isn't it Labour struggling in the red wall?
