Twitter tells me that #PleaseLeaveMyTown is trending! :D

And this made me smile too:

Americans Shocked by Spectacle of Legislative Body Taking Action

I love that first clip. (And the second.) But just the patience of that guy realising that he has to explain to the PM where he is and that he cannot claim to be in two places at once...

Honestly, Brexit used to seem just insane and excentric, but with all the rhetoric right now about "surrender" and "collaborators" I'm starting to get genuinely concerned about where this is headed. I'm not saying BoJo The Clown would deliberately start a war over this, but if anything's been made clear over the last year, it's that nobody is in control of this train and the only thing people have figured out how to do is to open up the throttle even more.

On the other hand, I love this comment about Johnson.

"I'm sorry to be crude but he looks like a toddler on a potty who has rejected the options of Having A Poo and also Not Having A Poo and is having big feelings about it ."

“From what I could tell, the legislators were providing oversight over the executive branch in order to protect their country from disaster,” he said. “It was so weird.”

Not to mention someone defecting to the other party on the spot. Imagine if we could have that happen...

There are some things you can't buy... because they're only made in Yorkshire. :')))

I have shared the video far and wide. My dad (Yorkshireman) is loving it.

I was MOST put out that he was coming HERE today, but oh, it's been worth it...

[sea_thoughts]

I was anticipating some putdowns but this was just perfection.

Boris Johnson's worst nightmare

I love it so much!

(Farage never even left his bus when he was here. Boris should have taken note...)

[sea_thoughts]

I don't think Farage would actually enjoy being an MP (as opposed to MEP). You have to do so much more work.

Send him down t'pit!

[sea_thoughts]

As amusing as that image is, I'd rather he was put to work in a food bank or somewhere similar, where he's forced to deal with ordinary people who need help.

Good point. How can we teach empathy?

My very favourite thing is the tote bag.

Well done Yorkshire, land of my grandmother!

I was once present when William Hague was booed out of my town when he was leader of the opposition. It was a thing of beauty.

Alas, I think times have changed around here.

She was obviously of good stock.

:) What a strange man he was.

Alas, I think times have changed around here.
They can change back!

[elisi]
