@rembrandt Why don’t these people think through what they are asking for? Or at least educate themselves a bit.
The exit is on the statute books. If there is no vo te FOR the terms of the deal what do they think will happen? Do they realise that what they would be voting for is Deal or No Deal, not Brexit or No Brexit. So the best they could achieve would be locking in the negotiators to not accepting the terms they’ve negotiated.
Unless of course they want to rerun the original one all over again. Like that won’t cause any social upheaval. But at least it would be “their kind” who are upset, not “our kind”.
Their argument amounts to “Waaaaaah”
And so we reap the fruits of an ill thought out and poorly campaigned referendum. It really has been a complete clusterfuck.

Just under half were always going to throw the toys out of the cot regardless.
Where it has gone wrong is the fact that May (govt in general?)is fucking useless and a remainer, and the EU are acting like fluffybunnies (which just makes leaving the EU even more sensible).If there is a second referendum the slogans really need ot be simple and honest
'Remain because if we dont the EU will be prize fluffybunnies and bully us until we do exactly what they say and give up all sovereignty""Leave because the EU are prize fluffybunnies and bully us until we do exactly what they say and give up all sovereignty"
Then let the people decide.... again

ITV following BBC's lead on getting the 'correct' sort of job applicant:
Surely you only have to identify as non white to skirt those rules?
-
@rembrandt I wonder what % non-white you'd have to be... 51%??
-
@paekakboyz I think it might soon be wise for any white person out there to get a dna test and start identifying with anything but the white devil. My current job pushes 'diversity' super hard. There is an entire team on my floor who are so diverse that they don't even need to speak English during meetings. Tranny route is probably a good fail-safe if dna fails!

I wonder if non-white applies to appearance as well.
I have a French mate who is half black. His dad is African. But he's whiter than I am. You would have no idea if he didn't tell you. He's literally as black as Obama.

I am reminded of this

I believe, disturbingly, NZs bill of rights allows "positive discrimination" which is what this would fall under. Assume the UK has something similar which allows them to get away with it?
I can't stress enough how much I hate stuff like this. It's so toxic for so many reasons.

Who needs a DNA test when you have eyebrows like this?

The part that is rarely reported on is the relationship between the rapists. Brothers, uncles, nephews, fathers, father-in-law. This is another feature of grooming (outside of the reluctance to investigate) that makes it very unique.

Not to excuse them in anyway but the reason they are all related is due in no small part to the fact they are inbred as hell . Cousin marriage is rampant in these communities leading to all kinds of health issues as well .
Mirpur Pakistanis are a gift that doesn’t stop giving .
