Brexit and the waning days of the United Kingdom

Perhaps they're alluding to Danny Dyer's contribution to the debate?

There is a definite possibility that, if Baldric had been PM back in 2016, he would not have fucked-up so comprehensively as Cameron.

He would have come up with a more cunning plan, that is for sure.

[Zanza]

It's too bad they did not make BoJo PM in 2016. That would have discredited the Brexiteers much more than May masochistically trying to square the circle.

[garbon]

Is Mr Herpes the dick shaped clown a kids show thing, or did they just invent him for this segment?

I'd guess the people posting the picture are suggesting the stupidity of Brexit and the politics/negotiations can just as well be explained by a plastic mascot as by anyone else?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr_Blobby

Mr Blobby is a character featured on Noel Edmonds' Saturday night variety BBC television show Noel's House Party, portrayed by Barry Killerby, and was the brainchild of British comedy writer Charlie Adams, a writer for the show. A bulbous pink figure covered with yellow spots, he has a permanent toothy grin and jiggling eyes. Mr Blobby communicates only by saying the word "blobby" in an electronically altered voice, expressing his moods through tone of voice and repetition. He topped the UK Singles Chart with the 1993 Christmas release "Mr Blobby".

There was that reporter (I think someone linked to) who was being asked as a political commentator on what the revealed Brexit stuff meant. He said that they'd be just as well asking Mr. Blobby.

Blackadder Version? Or Blackadder II, III and beyond version?

[The Brain]

Oh come on Baldrick, you're going to be a PM for God's sake! I'll just put fraud and sexual deviancy...

"There will be no downside to Brexit, only a considerable upside."

David Davis

"Getting out of the EU can be quick and easy – the UK holds most of the cards."

John Redwood

July 17 2016

"The free trade agreement that we will have to do with the European Union should be one of the easiest in human history."

Liam Fox

20 July 2017

"We're not really interested in a transition deal, but we'll consider one to be kind to the EU."

David Davis

15 November 2016

(lol)

"I believe that we can get a free trade and customs agreement concluded before March 2019."

David Davis

18 January 2017

"Indeed, [a trade deal] would take significantly less than two years. We hold all the cards. We will offer them a deal in response to their pleas for help."

Patrick Minford

14 June 2016

"I am not worried about transitional arrangements. I am prepared to take the economic hit to secure the economic benefits of not being inside the Single Market and being outside the Customs Union. I simply want... a quickie divorce." 

Michael Gove

17 November 2016

"We are going to get a deal which is of huge value and possibly of greater value."

Boris Johnson

16 November 2016

"Within two years, before the negotiation with the EU is likely to be complete, we can negotiate a free trade area massively larger than the EU. The new trade agreements will come into force at the point of exit, but they will be fully negotiated."

David Davis

14 July 2016

"Trade relations with the EU could be sorted out in an afternoon over a cup of coffee." 

Gerard Batten

17 February 2017

"Within minutes of a vote for Brexit, CEOs would be knocking down Chancellor Merkel's door demanding access to the British market."

David Davis 

4 February 2016

"The cost of getting out would be virtually nil and the cost of staying in would be very high."

Boris Johnson   6 March 2016

"I think we could very easily get a better trade deal than we have at the moment."

Douglas Carswell

8 June 2016

"All David Davis needs to say to is: listen guys free trade or WTO?" 

Tim Martin   2 January 2017

"It will be easy to negotiate a trade deal. It's in the EU's interests." 

Paul Nutall 

17 January 2017

"Nobody ever pretended this would be simple or easy."

David Davis 

5 September 2017

And this by David Davis last week deserves pride of place on the thread: 

"If we need to leave with no deal and negotiate a free trade agreement during the transition period, so be it."

Pathetic bunch...

[Valmy]

The EU regularly makes giant American internationals bend to their will, they are no pushovers. Those are pretty delusional quotes.

[Richard Hakluyt]

At least the chief brexiters will have a secure livelihood once they are drummed out of British politics; they are all shoo-ins as salesmen of alternative medicines.

[celedhring]

So, can May get this passed or is it dead in the water?

[Josquius]

Nobody likes it thats for sure.

But it depends how many of the brexiters can be convinced its this or nothing and/or how many remainers can be convinced its this or no deal.

Plus of course how many politicians are arse holes who don't care about the country and can be bought.

German website joked, "Surprising solution in Brexit conflict - Northern Ireland becomes Spanish!"

Wouldn't really surprise me at this point.

I don't think people here dislike the Spanish enough, to inflict that on them.

Honestly, at this point it wouldn't surprise me if the deal got voted through by a narrow majority due to Sinn Fein taking up their seats and voting for it.
