What's wrong with the British that they can't get this together. Is it inbreeding?Its an island nation and they hate interracial marriage. So i'm thinking it must come from inbreeding. Are they seeing birth defects?

I know you're trying REALLY hard to troll, but everyone else here (yes, even the British among us) is obviously a lot smarter than you and nobody is taking your bait. So to save you the mental strain of struggling to string a few words together in your next attempt to provoke, I've given you a couple of weeks to go out and breathe the fresh spring air. Or troll another forum. Enjoy your break.

1007 days later, the British still don’t know what they really want.

I don’t think anyone would want that, but the Brits probably come up with some arguments.

Are they voting on anything today?

Ironically, Brexit has probably strengthened the EU. Remember how bad things initially looked for the EU following the result?

House of Commons Speaker John Bercow gave his approval to hold the third vote tomorrow after he had rejected a similar attempt last week, ruling then that May's text was essentially the same one that lawmakers had voted down.
Getting bored with popcorn, any alternative nibble foods?

I guess the change is that "the two previous votes were on the draft Withdrawal Agreement and the Political Declaration on the Future Relationship; tomorrow’s vote will only be on the Withdrawal Agreement." https://www.thejournal.ie/brexit-vot...64435-Mar2019/ | This user would like to thank 3Wishes for this useful post: | |
