The second tweet is laughable too.



"What foreigners understand". What is this, Mind Your Language? European diplomats, and many politicians, speak very good English, and can listen to Frosty for themselves.

Tubby, you forgot to mention most of these European diplomats and politicians speak better English than a large chunk of the English population do.
Edit to add:

And those that don't still have a better grasp of the language than the average EDL member*


*Other defenders of the English language are available, and are equally thick, ignorant and illiterate as the EDL

Brexiteer who talked-up Brexit reaps Brexit benefit

Brexiteer who compared EU to badly-run hotel bemoans lack of EU staff for her own hotel

Hotel Inspector Alex Polizzi's EU workers disaster shows that the Brexit chickens are coming home to roost

It has been a gloomy week on the sunlit uplands of sovereign Britain, and for all the talk of football, one thing we can be certain of coming home are Brexit chickens to roost...


...“Brexit has caused us enormous problems with recruitment,” she told the i newspaper. “We had forgotten how much we relied on these enthusiastic young professionals from hospitality schools across Europe.”

It’s a far cry from the halcyon pre-referendum times when all Alex had to serve up were glib one-liners like, “The European Union reminds me of an overpriced, badly run hotel.” A room at her new place costs from £190 per night...

Even Trump would throw that line in the bin. And fuck James O'Brien's 'compassion for the conned.'

I don't think he had wealthy business owners in mind when he said it.

If I was the ‘Hotel inspector’ my first advice to Alex would be to keep your mouth shut on politics if you’re a boss in a service industry. Especially international relations if you have an international clientele.

Can he drive Tyrone Mings to Witham?

When you pretend to be more stupid than you are to stall for time but were very dim at the outset, the results are spectacular

"Global Britain" right there!

Now the thing below isn't actually "real news", but...

The only reason I can think of for describing Irish cross-border trade as a problem and not wanting to encourage more of it is because the Tories fully intended to reinstate the hard border, call in the army, and turn the clock back to the 1970s.

Please someone, tell me I'm wrong.

Not totally Brexit but I'd lay money on the overlap.



Last night the Thames (Tower Bridge) RNLI crew were verbally assaulted by a mob on their way to their shift, and the police had to be called. Why?

Because the RNLI had been seen rescuing refugees in the channel...

So well done, Patel and Farage. The dog whistles are working.

DUP, Gove and a few others maybe. Most of the ERG think there’s a country called Southern Ireland full of happy farmers jigging with a pig under their arms. Brexiters did dedicate some of their massive brain power to Ireland and there were three camps; The good ol’ Paddies will back us against the Krauts, Frogs and Wops. Then there’s the traditional ‘we’ll show the Micks who’s boss’ if they step out of line (See Priti Patel). And down at Arkham Asylum is Farage and Hoey who predicted Ireland would rejoin the UK to grab a slice of the Brexit boom.

Worth grasping Irish politics even if not interested to illuminate the stupidity of the moron bottom feeders running this state.

My dad loved the sea and dabbled in boats throughout his life. He also was a comically terrible sailor which may explain his lifelong passion for the RNLI. Never missed his subs and no holiday was complete without a visit to the lifeboat station and have a chat in awe of their work. I was in tears when I read about this pondlife. Hope they never have to be rescued at sea and wouldn’t too sad if no one turned up.
