‘Jacob Rees-Mogg to fling fish from trawler on Thames in protest for fishermen 'betrayed' by May's Brexit deal’

I want my country back 🤦🏼‍♂️

telegraph.co.uk/politics/2018/…
Retweeted by a Brexiter who possibly thinks I’m being pro-JRM. Worrying.
Jacob Rees Mogg: “I follow the teachings of Jesus Christ.”

*Jacob flings dead fish into the Thames in protest at Brexit transition deal*

Hmm. Didn’t Jesus magic up lots of fish to feed the poor? Jacob screws the poor, then throws their dinner in the river. How very Christian.
I am sick to death of Brexiters pretending that fishing is the biggest issue of Brexit.

We have a services economy; we are not like Norway. Fishing is being used as a smokescreen to hide Brexit’s failings in other industries and to demonise EU.

Theresa May “I’m unashamed to say that foreign aid must work for the UK.”

Pandering, once again, to the right-wingers. The sort of people who, if they saw an old lady fall over, would ask “Before I help you up, what’s in it for me?”

What mean, selfish nation we’re becoming.
What *a* mean, selfish nation we’re becoming.

.@BarryGardiner effectively saying on #r4today that we have to trash our country with Brexit to stop right-wing xenophobes from rioting. FFS.

What is the point of @UKLabour? Absolute joke.
Perhaps @BarryGardiner needs reminding of the way that decent British people deal with fascists: we don’t cower and let them get their way, we fight them and their ugly, racist, xenophobic ideology.

Brexit: New EU referendum vote could spark ‘civil disobedience’, says Labour's @BarryGardiner.

Remember when Labour’s front bench wasn’t occupied by fascist-appeasers?

Still, at least the members who put them there get to sing a song about the leader.

Oh, Nadine....

You really have to stop your Boris Johnson obsession, it is quite deluded.

Let’s have a look at your claims:
Boris delivered the Olympics?

Lord Coe and the British Olympic Association did that, and Ken Livingstone was in charge when the bid went in and was won.

Boris was simply fortunate enough to be in office while they were on.

Boris banished bendy buses?

He wasted millions on new Routemaster buses.

Conventional double-decker: £190,000

Boris’s vanity buses: £354,500

Brexit options:

1. Remain member of EU
2. Stay in Single Market and Customs Union
3. Leave Single Market and/or Customs Union
4. No deal
1. Remaining a member of the EU allows us a seat at the table in the house - where decisions are made - and we get all the benefits of being a member of the household.

There may be negative aspects of sharing a home, but they are overwhelmingly outweighed by the positives.
2. Staying in Single Market and Customs Union is gives us the security of being close to the house - but we’re not part of the family and don’t have a proper say in what will affect us.

What those around the table in the house decide, us in our caravan have to do.
