It's 1997, Tony Blair under New Labour have just been elected, we are on a newsgroup called brit.pol and here are some of the news stories that we are discussing
Lads, let's say in a hypothetical situation, you woke up 15 minutes ago. If you have already started drinking spirits, do you have a problem?

Just played my copy of Be Here Now, could be better lads.

>It's 1997, Tony Blair under New Labour have just been elected, we are on a newsgroup called brit.pol and here are some of the news stories that we are discussing
You gormless cunts would fall hook line and sinker for Tony Blair just as you did for Theresa May
>Uninspiring bland politician (whose only genuine passion is for killing liberty and imposing a police state) is dressed up as a figure that the public will love by her Special Advisors
In Blair's case it was "Look at this fresh-faced young go-getter full of optimism ready to lead us out of the grey stale Thatcher/Major years", in May's case it's "Look at this experienced conservative hero full of anti-EU sentiment ready to lead us out of the horrible liberal Blair/Cameron years".
In both cases it's bullshit heated up and served to people who want to believe it and will angrily shill against anyone who claims otherwise

Oh and you would also cream your pants over the fact that Tony Blair """BTFO""" the economic Socialists in his party, you'd be talking about how great it was that both Labour and the Tories were now """Right-wing"""

That's very interesting, but what does Peter Hitchens have to say on the subject?

What's worse is, Tony Blair's approval ratings shot up dramatically after Diana died and it gave him free reign to do whatever he wanted. Her death truly was the end of British society.

What? Alan Sugar is a rabid leftist
Someone born in 2001 detected Economic liberals like the wankers on Brit/pol/ loved Blair because they thought he wasn't a socialist on account of his free market policies
Carson Bennett
What the fuck is a Muslim? Just heard about it on the news.
Benjamin Thompson

Nicholas Reyes

Jose Moore
I voted Conservative in 1997.
Disappointed to hear it was a Labour victory but there we go . . . .5 minutes later it's was old news and everybody just got on with things.
Nothing like today when there are major tantrums on social media.

Reminder that while leave may have won the referendum, if you factor in everyone who didn't or can't vote and pretend they would have voted remain, then leave actually lost. Also the referendum wasn't legally binding tbqh famalam.

John Hill
Actually my young autist friend - NO!
But I could see the appeal from other voters about Tony Blair. You weren't there at the time, you will never know.
Bentley Wilson
The Remainers are celebrating this High Court victory because they hope that MPs will defy their constituents and vote against their wishes. Despite 63% of constituencies voting to leave, the Remainers are hoping that MPs turn around and say "I don't care what my constituents chose; in the Commons I'm voting to remain".
Then these smug poncey media wankers have the sheer fucking brass neck to turn around and call anyone who opposes the vote "undemocratic"!
The longer this whole Article 50 shutdown goes on, the more my hatred for the cosmopolitan lefties grows. And to think that I used to be a Labour voter.

It was advisory, and on checking their bank balances, the MPs have decided no to take it.
