Pallets: the latest mundane thing the shambolics overlooked.

Latest from the Maybot's #BrexitOmnishambles World: We don't have enough compliant pallets to export to the EU after a #CrashOutBrexit!

No Pallets

Extraordinary mutiny

There were extraordinary scenes at the end of the League Cup Final yesterday when the Chavski goalkeeper, Kepa Arrizabalaga, refused to be substituted after being treated for cramp twice.

I've seen players being really unhappy at being substituted but I've never even heard of one refusing to come off!
OK it might have been a misunderstanding: Sarri thought he was injured but he told the medics he was fine but it ook some time for the message to get to the touchline.

Still makes Sarri's tenure on the hot-seat even more tenuous.

Next few days will show whether Roman still cares about the club or not. I can't see him being fired before the Spurs game. After that, possibly depending on the result, all bets are off.

3 months late

The increasingly ludicrous PM has now signalled that the next/final 'meaningful vote' will be on March 12th.

That's more than 3 moths after the vote she hooked after getting frit & more than 2 months after her record defeat when she finally did put it to parliament.

It's also just 17 days until we crash out due to the triggering of article 50, which is entirely her fault.

In addition to the Withdrawal Agreement, there are at least half a dozen major pieces of legislation that need to pass through Parliament too.

That fact alone seems to indicate that, assuming she can placate the far-right & get the WA through, an extension to Article 50 might be necessary. 

Even that's not guaranteed as the EU27 + EU Parliament have very little patience left. This hasn't been helped by the UK attempting to strong-arm individual states & side-line Michel Barnier. In the face of such behaviour the EU might just as well say no and move on to protecting Ireland etc from the shambolic crash out that's coming anyway.

Fromage being hypocritical again?

Welly-faced spunktrumpet Nijel Fromage went onto twitter to opine that the ex-labour MPs should resign & stand in the resulting bye-elections as they'd stood for one party/it's manifesto & now no longer represented that party.

The retarded cocksucker went pretty quiet when it was pointed out that he'd stood on the UKIP ticket but had left to join the fly-by-night Brexit Party and had't stood down to trigger a bye-election.

Splitists 2

After the 'Gang of Seven' came 'The Lone Ranger' as Joan Ryan resigned from the party to join the Independent Group.

Then a small bombshell as Anna Soubry, Sarah Wollaston and Heidi Allen all quit the Toxic Tories to join the new grouping.

This takes them level with the Fib Dems though, in an interesting statistical annomaly the IG have 7 women to 4 men, the Fib Dems the exact opposite.

The 3 launched a pretty devastating critique of Theresa May’s handling of the Brexit negotiations, noting that that the Tories had lurched to the right, adopting UKIP policies and pursuing a hard Brexit. They also cited the fact that local parties had sufferred 'entryism' turning the Tories into 'BlueKIP' (something I've been calling them for ages).

They then turned their fire on the ERG for calling for Maybot's head then effectively running Government policy.

This is bad news for Maybot as it reduces her notional majority to 8 (and more resignations may be coming), leaving her even weaker & more dependent on whatever the ERG/the DUP decide they want.

We then had the sight of the 3 coming into the commons and turning to the left & the opposition benches.

Then we had the sight of Maybot (who'd had to tear up the script attacking Labour over the defections) and Corbyn pointedly not mentioning the elephant that was not only in the room, it was hovering over their heads trumpeting.

Post Brexit we can bring back a lost marque


Confirmed

Honda have confirmed that their Swindon plant will close in 2 years.

The usual measure is 1 job in the factory = 4 in supply chain so that's 14,000 jobs going too.

Then there's the ripple of the jobs that are supported by the 17,500 jobs: all the restaurants, cafes, pubs, cinema's etc.

Still it's good to know that it was 'global trends' and not Brexit (that Honda repeatedly warned about) that is responsible. No sirree!
