They were not in the EU

I've always been a stats man, so here's my favourite brexit stats:

People keep referring to the brexit bus in the past tense, but actually 42% of Britons still believe the brexit bus myth (lie!)

The UK government have been on the winning side of EU law maing votes 95% of the time:

Good news for all the Greasy Spoons back in Blighty, except sources say that there may well be a sausage shortage and we'll have to import more of the Spanish type of cured sausage.

tbf, you wouldn't want one that was still poorly

Doesn't he need to be elected as an MP first....

They were not in the EU

This must be longest period where no European country has been at ware with another

Nevertheless European as per quote. The EU gave rapid accession to Slovenia and Croatia after the break up of Yugoslavia, and getting Serbia in is an aim.  However old emnities die hard in the Balkans and Eastern Europe, and things are a long way from being settled.

Could be made a Lord.

[Nemo]

Could be made a Lord.

And most ex-PMs are, to be 'fair'. Nobody has yet fancied the controversy of enobling Blair mind.

Could be made a Lord.

When was the last time that one of the 4 major posts was held by someone not sitting as an MP, whilst its historically possible I cannot see it being acceptable to the public these days, and we all know how important the will of the people is.

A brain washed Left wing Nazi calling others a Nazi, oh the Irony. My family is Jews so suck on that you self righteous Nazi.

I honestly do not know where to begin.....

Cameron must know that his legacy is a car crash.  He wants an opportunity to repair some of the damage before the history books are written.  I'd be surprised if he manages it.

12 months ago I would have been confident that the Tories would never touch him due to his toxicity, however their ability to completely misjudge the public mood makes me considerably less confident in that position now.

Lord Carrington as foreign sec under Thatcher, I believe. So not recently at all.

[pauld]

Lord Carrington as foreign sec under Thatcher, I believe.

And that went well. Would be quite amusing if Cameron did get away with it in a desperate attempt to salvage his "legacy" and then fucked it up even more. Although it's difficult to see what he could do that would be even more calamitous than his last stab at it, but I'm sure he'd find something, the Eton fuckwit

[Flashheart]

These cunts are so out of touch that I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't feel he fucked it up

No one wants a poorly sausage
