Blisteringly excellent article from

JAMES BALL:

“This is the thickest group of MPs in history” Some because they cannot help it. Others because they see it as being expedient to say truly thick things, to win support from their constituents.

I hadn’t realised that @NickBoles had called Clegg and Ed Miliband “a nauseating double act” for suggesting the Norway Option in Oct 2016 calling it a “spurious” bid to “frustrate the referendum result”.
3/ I think many of us who would have reluctantly accepted a Norway model as an undesirable but least worst option early on had realised by then there was no point.

We were repeatedly abused and it was obvious that an FTA & bugger the GFA was the response
No point in persisting

May's manner, her approach to diplomacy, is so shameful that it is hurting the world's impression of what constitutes the British personality. She is making us look scheming and inept
You can get away with being one of those things. Being both is dreadful. politics.co.uk/blogs/2019/04/…
2/. “We are now stuck in the extraordinary situation of watching our negotiating partner force a more advantageous situation on us against our stated will. This is admittedly for their own reasons.”
3/
 “They have no intention of holding emergency summits every month to extend the timetable again each time May fails. So they prefer a 1-year extension which can be cancelled whenever a deal is agreed.”

As was always the case under A50(3)
She just isn’t honest enough to say so

Oh my Lord. What wag slipped this into Francois Wiki Page?!!!!

“He died on 4 April 2019 after exploding with rage in the House of Commons, with anecdotal evidence reporting that his giblets ended up strewn all over the House[2]” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Fran…
Just in case it disappears!

WILLING to deploy 10k riot police to quell food & other shortage riots for a NO DEAL that most MPs and public reject, but are UNWILLING to deploy them to curtail the criminal activity of Pro Brexit activists.

That is the reverse of Government. independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…
2/. “In the past two weeks, police have recorded 37 crimes directly related to Brexit across England and Wales, including malicious communications, verbal abuse, harassment and offences committed at protests.”
3/. Further spikes are expected. It is now routine that MPs are called traitors often for representing the views of their own constituents or for trying to preserve a strong economy for the generation too young to vote.

1) 1st #TwitterBot du jour. I have 2wonder if they can read the #INSTABLOCK [ ! ]
2) For those of U that may wonder why I go on about the #TwitterBots, here's one of the pieces of the story of this accounts time & the Bot assaults.
This is what they look like. This is a #BotFarm. Take $100k worth of iPhones, add more tech & a tech orchestrator (coder) & start
3) fake accounts on each one. Add various programs as time passes & release into the #TwitterSphere.
Soon after starting this account, DM's began coming thru that had a #Youtube link. Most often there was nothing else. I won't show the link as text as it could be opened & that's

ON INDEPENDENCE
(thread)

If you are dependent on someone, you will spend your time on improving his/her life rather than yours.

Being independent doesn’t mean not to rely on others.

It means to rely on others because you want, not because you need.

[1/N]
Independence isn’t to be confused with isolation. It doesn’t mean to be alone; it means to be able to withstand your own responsibilities alone, if need is.

[2/N]
Being independent doesn’t mean not to help others.

It means to help them only in the measure in which it makes them more independent, and to refuse to help them when it would make them more dependent on you (unless the need is critical).

[3/N]

I got wondering why Brexit is old people. And I figured it out.

Brexit is old people's doing because old people are from before internet.
It's not just the old people can remember before internet. Old people had most of their life before internet. They're from a disconnected world. A dark ages of telegrams and town criers.
Before internet there was ignorance. All you knew about the outside world was what TV and newspapers told you. And if they were anything like they are now, they told you fuck all.

#History/#Art thread – From my recent trip to Madurai/Tirunelveli. On Jain sites (some with a rich history dating back to at least the 3rd cent. BCE), early Pandyan rock-cut cave temples (7th-8th cent. CE) & the amazing Vettuvan koil.

Pic: Mahavira (~8 cent CE), Kizhakuyilkudi
Before I start on the places, the history around all this is fascinating & splits opinion. Is it apt to call the script Tamili/Tamil Brahmi? Did it develop independently in the Tamil country/come with the Jain monks from the north? Were 8,000 Jains actually impaled in Madurai?>
>Were the Saivites overaggressive in promoting their faith? Shall only be happy to discuss on these separately (unless it gets too long/irrational). And I’m not posting every inscription from the places here, despite their importance. Again, shall be happy to discuss them.

1. Most #Patriots are well aware of the #DeepState entrenched inside our government. What most people don’t understand is how this shadowy super- structure of hidden power is so well-organized.

#QAnon #FreeTommyRobinson #PatriotsUnite #GreatAwakening #UnitedWeStand #WeThePeople
2. The web of entrenched interests in the US government has been able to wield power over the US government and beyond for decades. The following speech by U.S. Senator William E. Jenner in 1954 helps explain the Deep State’s objective.
#QAnon @POTUS @realDonaldTrump #WeThePeople
3. This ability to control the US Government from the shadows and transform our Country for so long is a testament to how well-organized it is. But what holds it all together? And even more importantly, who are the treasonous forces that control the #DeepState?

Long Thread incoming

Topic: Speculating about Robert Mueller
@ThomasWictor @drawandstrike @DaveNYviii @rising_serpent @TheLastRefuge2 @nameredacted5 @tracybeanz @Imperator_Rex3
Finally got to read this excellent article by @SharylAttkisson , which includes a lot of important information (covered today so well by @TheLastRefuge2 and @rising_serpent (and others). But I was drawn to one particular section regarding Mueller.
thehill.com/opinion/campai…
I have been speculating for quite some time that Mueller is on "Team Trump" so to speak. This speculation has been shared by others, including those linked above.

Add this bit from @SharylAttkisson article to the pile of circumstantial evidence bolstering that theory:
