For whom the bell trolls ... 14:11 - Dec 20 with 2157 views

From the BBC:

Almost 50 MPs are calling for Big Ben to chime the moment that Britain leaves the European Union.

The Elizabeth Tower, where the Great Bell is situated, is currently being refurbished and only rings out on New Year's Eve and Remembrance Sunday.

But the MPs - led by the prominent Conservative eurosceptic Mark Francois - have signed a Commons motion, urging Parliament's authorities to allow an exception at 23.00 GMT on 31 January.

They say the move would "provide an appropriate national focus" for what they say is a "truly historic event".

Who would have guessed that Mark Francois would have been front and centre of this?

What argument?

I have literally seen time and again list after list of blatant lies and bullsh1t posted and when someone points out the facts the response is "yawn, not this again".

Facts are just noise to the idiots. That's how it works.

The truth is, the ill-informed, the uneducated, have revelled in their chance to somehow 'get even'. The brighter amongst them are happy to patronise and allow them to make fools of themselves. They are their fodder; draw them in - pretend to be onside.

They're too stupid, too preoccupied with feeling on some level with those they feel intimidated by that they couldn't give a toss about reasoning or facts.

There's your truth.

Relax man. It's Christmas, have a mince pie.
