Brits had the best deal in the EU, and because of some rascist folks and Russian propaganda they decided to leave it all, thinking they won somehow.
It’s like MAGA Americans, working against their best interests because they are too angry to stop and think.
Anyone who asks what’s the weirdest part of being an American immigrant in Britain, I tell them “the similarities”. I make sure to hit 'em with a thousand-yard stare while I’m at it.

These are Cipolla’s five fundamental laws of stupidity:
-
Always and inevitably, everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.
-
The probability that a certain person (will) be stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.
-
A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.
-
Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular, non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places, and under any circumstances, to deal and/or associate with stupid people always turns out to be a costly mistake.
-
A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person.

I wouldn’t bank on it, Starmer is incredibly unpopular and is practically handing over the title of prime minister to Nigel Farage.
handing over the title of prime minister to Nigel Farage.
MBGA, the final outcome of all this stupid.
Cant say im a hiye fan given my above couple of points but I think he is doing a decent job in bringing stability to foreign affairs and a national level. He is fucking up on the smaller scale, “real feel” bits with cost cuts and privatisation.
Let’s all go back to 2016 and fix all the stupidity that has occurred since
10 years. Wow.
We’ll let you back in if you start isolating (ed: insulating ofc) your houses and get rid of the carpets in the bathrooms. It’s a new century.
I haven’t seen a carpeted bathroom in about 30 years, so I think we’re ok on that front!
I recently went to a place on Dartmoor that my mate is renting, and the thick shag pile carpet went up the side of the bath, let alone around the toilet. It was really not ok
But just think how quickly the carpet dries your feet when you get out of the bath. It’s thick shag, so for extra convenience, you can just roll around on the floor to get dry all over.
I’m sorry, I made myself uncomfortable just thinking that, so I had to share it.
You laugh now, but let’s see who’s laughing when your house burns down because you don’t have a permanently moist bathroom carpet to smother the fire. When I get a break from coughing due to all the mold, I’ll laugh like a maniac!

Was it a dark pink or olive green?
Ha, it was dark pink!
That’s a classic. Another few years and that carpet will get listed status!
One of my friends moved to a flat in Greenwich just the other … hmm … ok so it was 25 years ago, but anyway, he proudly showed off his posh flat with carpeted bathroom :D
My wife’s parents have a carpeted bathroom. Fucking animals.
Fucking animals.
Oh wow. I guess the carpet is easier on your knees or something? Like for smaller livestock? And then the sink is right there.

also the Euro and, if you’re in, you’re also in Schengen. No more precious hour-long security queues at any railway station having cross-Channel services because the English are special.
I’m from the UK and consider it a crime. It’s not common. Tile it or lino it. Simple.
Carpets in bathrooms is disgusting.
Isolating houses? You meant insulate?
Are you telling me that my toilet seat shouldn’t be fluffy?
Isolating houses?
Ouch, that was embarrassing. Thanks.
*Insulating
Seems to be a false friend in Italian “isolare”
They don’t have insulated houses in the UK? As a Canadian, that just seems nuts to me.
New houses are well-insulated, but a surprising amount of people live in >100 year old houses. Those are designed to have a fireplace burning cheap wood every night, and insulating them isn’t very straightforward.
A clear majority of voters want back into the EU, that has been the case for many years now.
We should be finished with the self flagellation of the Brexit movement now that the ‘supposed’ left-wing are in power in the UK.
The fact that Labour are tripping over themselves to uphold the absolute nonsense put forth by the Tories is a testament to how far they’ve fallen and how right-wing they are now.
Welsh (And Scottish) independence can’t came soon enough. Annibyniaeth 🏴

The polls before the referendum said this too.

Unfortunately Brexit wasn’t really a right/left wing topic; there were plenty of Tories who wanted to remain and Corbyn was pretty much Leave, although he never came out and expliciltiy said it.
Also let’s not forget that Wales voted to leave.
But I do wish a party would come out and said that they’d get us to re-join the EU. The Lib-Dems were always strongly pro-EU but they’ve gone quiet on it, at least for now. We need closer ties to Europe more than ever, that much is obvious.
