The grass outside the polling station wasn't watered.
Ah lads their going to turn us into iPhones.
I think he wants to turn the Irish into pets.
O'Brien should have asked the caller whether he, himself wanted to be microchipped because it's not just the Irish, it will have to be anyone from the whole world who visits the island of Ireland.
Surely there must be one Brexiter somewhere who has an IQ higher than 50.
To be fair, US might argue that it played the biggest role in defeating Nazis (I don't agree though), but the UK was a distinct third.
O’Brien makes sure he filters out anybody with a brain in case they show him up for the pompous twat he is
Fecking Irish, couldnt you just help out the Brits just once? Whats a microchip between mates?
Microchip is a bit far maybe they should have an Irish flag badge sewed onto their clothing instead.
I could see microchips working quite well. When I go through the Old Trafford turnstiles, or the on the Underground, an orange light flashes to show I'm reduced fare.
Maybe in this case a big flashing potato on a pole could light up?

Though what is funny now, it will not be in a few decades. Al the personal information that we are giving freely in internet (through FB, Google, etc), would be treat it as distopian 40 years ago as it looks like putting a microchip on us
See that David Davis is still in Unicorn land giving evidence to the Commons Brexit committee this morning. There is actually no hope for the Uk is there.

Gone under the radar.
The first response is incredible.

It really shouldn't just be journalists and back-bench MPs/rebels saying this though, should it?
Official line of both front benches still remains that Brexit must happen. Point that out and those on the right accuse you of being anti-democratic and a 'Remoaner', and people from the left accuse you of smearing Corbyn, as if pointing out his actual policy is a smear.
It's completely nuts. We're presented with a choice between a party that supports hard Brexit and an opposition who doesn't want to do anything to stop hard Brexit. Forget inner-party dissidents , that's literally the position we're in.

Also tired of hearing "Corbyn is in a difficult situation".
It's a lame excuse for giving almost no direction on Brexit.

inclined to agree
the overall Westminster perspective seems like it's all a bit of a lark to me
except for the Tory loonies who are loving it - the tail wagging the dog feckwits
and Labour position is a pretty can't really be arsed shameful-fest for the most part, unless they can throw some mud that won't boomerang back
Of course they haven't. Davis, May, Fox, Johnson...they're all just playing a game of seeing how long they can get away with it.
Johnson will quit shortly before everything goes south in order to position himself as the white knight, the others will simply slink off. It's just a massive pretence to elongate their political relevance. Like the spoon-faced cnut before them, they'll simply walk off after setting the country alight and leave it for someone else.
The outrage I tell you, the outrage!
The UK would never charge anyone from outside the EU for a visa.... oh wait.
The left's opposition to Brexit is because one conception involves us basically maintaining the same relationship without any of the benefits, and the other involves violating the Good Friday Agreement and severely damaging the economy, both options being implemented by a highly incompetent government who don't seem to understand any of this.
Yeah I have mix feelings on the article and it of course the misses the biggest issue - the potential border in the North but I thought it was worth posting.

Wait until they have to queue for six hours at Dover, wonder who'll be the moaners then.
Yeah, I don't mean to come across as an overly dismissive dick - I do have a certain respect for elements of the left who want to actually look for viable, workable solutions to this without undermining what the majority voted for, but at the same time I feel like a lot of the complicated discussion kind of misses the central point that opposition to Brexit is based on the fact that the end results are either pointless, non-viable or both.

Well that's good news at least.
I'm sure the Brexiteers will be cheering on our display of sovereignty here.

Indeed. I'm sure in this case he fully accepts their wishes.
Any chances press can call him out on this one, given his recent tweets? Reall hate the sight of that self-serving marionette.
I can't imagine him taking much notice of the Guardian and Independent. Other than that it'll be brushed under the carpet, Kusenberg will hold the rug up for him.
This. The Tory party has succumbed to the base instincts of its nasty wing and Labour is a cynical, deceitful rabble.
This should be the Lib Dems' chance to shine but they don't have anyone who can take advantage.

Consular assistance/protection will now be available to all EU citizens from all EU member consulates, regardless if they're from that state.

Ah, he's UKIP. Nothing to see here.

This says you're not adult until 24, although I'm pretty sure I've seen recent research somewhere that says it's 28 for males. I must admit when I read the caf I find it best to ignore posters under 28 anyway.
"you've been fecked by my generations greed so you're not worth listening to"
Yeah, I was pretty much an idiot until late in my 20s. Would have no problem making 28 the cut off point.
Bound to be some sort of bell-shaped curve, mind you. My old man has definitely got more and more reactionary and less logical since he hit his 70s.
It's not all down to age.
Someone who was stupid when they were 20 will still be stupid when they're 40 and at 60 and at 80.
Instead of taking into account their age or their political belief, make them take an intelligence test before they answer, that may be more revealing.

First disqualifying question: Do you think intelligence tests are worthwhile?
Should weed a few out.
