It's all playing out exactly as I've been saying it would. Two things have both been true all along: May is useless, a deal would be reached. ...

Actually, the NI protocol is kind of smart. At least if I read it correctly. It seems to imply that a one-way open border in the Irish sea is...

Awesome. So ... nothing happens for the next 827 years of 'transition'. Britain continues to benefit from all it's continued close ties with...

It is available online. Not much fun reading though. The gist of the agreement is that there is going to be a 'transition period' during which...

According to the tweets I've seen, the EU has indeed taken back control. :D https://twitter.com/Raphael_Hogarth/status/1062796738480795653 ...

Publish the agreement, you chodes. This is like listening to a bunch of people argue heatedly over a film you haven't seen.

Theresa talking and the outcome is; the cabinet agrees with the proposed deal. What's interesting is that the DUP seems to have been thrown under...

I can see an argument being made that it gives those who first vote for low-ranked candidates more weight, an additional "vote" when their candidate...

True, not sure how I missed that. He is clearly a total asshole.

If ranked voting is unconstitutional then you should run the election again, you don't get to just take the results from an election under one...

And an asshole.

It's because he's both impulsive and stupid.

I really enjoyed the book, so when I saw the movie, I was like WTF is this crap? I re-watched the first 20 mins last night and I have to say it's...

Pfft, they don't need to read​ it.

Lewk chose the brown pill. He's gone full maga.

Looked it up because I couldn't figure out how it was unconstitutional and found this. tl;dr: It goes against the state constitution, not the...

I don't know. I know about the advisory opinion but I haven't read it so I don't know what the reasoning is. As far as I know the issue has never...

Its always good fun to insult French military but I don't get why Trump has a beef with it. He's been asking European leaders to spend more on...

You aren't even trying.

Too many commentators are glossing over the element of ratification. Without knowing what's in the agreement you can't tell if a vote in the Council...

You do know Jeb is a Republican, right?
