We're all cousins, when you go back far enough.

We're all probably directly descended from Charlemagne and Mohammed.

What about Ghengis Kahn? Stop being ethnocentric.

How did you manage to spell both of his names wrong? :)

I think uni fees will go up post brexit, and it'll end up like America.

I note in Ireland it's €3k a year, so I'm a bit tempted to move in 10 years to qualify if all looks to be the same.

General cost of living in Ireland is way higher though. Even in rural Ireland in the town my wife’s family live stuff costs more than in London.

Reading the transcript of yesterday's PMQs and Mr Corbyn came across as the most pressing he's been on Brexit. Mrs May could only make a cheap Czech gag/slur, and witter on about fucking blue passports.

I thought you were joking because it's such a cliched Brexiteer thing to go on about, but no, there's actually a whole conversation about the colour of fucking passports. 8)

And it turns out that they could have been red, blue, or purple with holographic unicorns all along.

To be honest, I've very much lost track of when I am being sarcastic and trolling in this thread and when I'm being genuine. Future historians will look back on this period of our history with amazement.

I hope they do. In 100 years' time researchers will cite us as a representative sample of what real people in the old UK did and thought about their lives, giving us an immortality of sorts.

Otherwise, all we are is dust in the wind.

Fair enough, I just thought because the 'staring at phones' thing is the usual jibe at millenials. That said I don't think we're distractedly sleepwalking into anything; once the referendum was decided I don't feel anyone has any real power to change how this plays out. People are plenty engaged and outraged, it just doesn't have any impact. :(

We have power to influence how it plays out . We, by far, have not done our bit.

It’s not firm defined, but 1980-1999 is what I usually see written.

So, that’s Russell. Us 70s baby’s are Generation X.

Mr Corbyn is accepting a customs union. No doubt this was sold to him as a chance to cause chaos for the Tories rather than acting on the country's best interests, but is a welcome step in the right direction.

Meanwhile, David Davis needs to read up on projection:

As for politicians, I would actually be happier if my MP had been a lifelong Eurosceptic, rather than a Tory who just switched sides for the sake of her political career. At least in the former case, they actually believe in what they are doing and I could have a clear basis for an argument rather than vacuous statements from the party PR office.
