Brexit prediction thread which is far too long and dull and also simultaneously dystopian but very optimistic. I've missed out a lot and made great leaps in time but it will be interesting to see how it all really pans out. Anyway, I present, Sajid Javid's 'The Lost Decade!':

@JV_Hund @PompeyKry @OWS1892 @DavidLammy @FabianPicardo Relief. Particularly after years of uncertainty and frontier issues that Brexit brought about. Gibraltar voted 96% remain by the way.

@mannyfidel Pete Wentz??

@OpiningAround @berak_hlak @footballfights It is an incredibly controversial and politicised issue in Belgium and there is a lot of history behind it. Put very simply, Dutch is not a mandatory subject in the French language schools (outside Brussels) whereas French is a mandatory subject in the Dutch language schools.

@elkevdbrandt @ParisHilton @BartDhondt @PhilippeClose 8km/u in de voetgangerszone is goed maar de 20 km/u-limiet in de rest van de regio is nu veel te langzaam. De scooters waren een goed alternatief voor ritten met slechte MIVB-verbindingen, maar nu is het te traag en dus te duur omdat we per minuut betalen.

@elkevdbrandt @STIBMIVB Word 25 en dan is het €500, blijkbaar eindigt armoede op je 25ste!

[Calum @CalumRThomson]

@elkevdbrandt @alainmaron Als je dit ambitie wilt bereiken, moet je de MIVB gratis of veel goedkoper maken, het is te duur en de frequentie van trams en bussen is niet goed genoeg.

[Calum @CalumRThomson]

@STIBMIVB Ach ja, geef mensen die al worstelen met de kosten van levensonderhoud boetes voor de gruwelijke misdaad van het reizen door hun thuisstad. Goed werk!

Today, @unitetheunion Policy Conference voted to support Proportional Representation for the first time in our history. Our political class has failed working people and our system is broken. It is time to change our democracy. #UPC2021 #JobsPayConditions https://t.co/gvS76IxeG9

Desperately disappointing & deeply counterproductive. It’s just made Labour’s route back to power far harder, as well as undermining what I’d always understood to be a core Labour value of equality. All votes should surely be equal & all voters equally powerful @MakeVotesMatter

@Dan_Summerfield Oh yeah! I remember that plumber kept talking about how he was going to bring it round hahah

[Calum @CalumRThomson]

@Dan_Summerfield 2 more PS2s?! Hahaha where have they all come from 😂 I remember I had 2 controllers but one of them was super rattly, can't remember if it worked very well. I'll pick it up one day, if I can ever get back into the country 🤣

[Calum @CalumRThomson]

@Dan_Summerfield Think one of those PS2s is mine, I've been lost without SSX Tricky in my life 🤣

Mike Tyson walking out to DMX for his boxing return in 1999 will always be iconic.

DMX was one of the greatest to ever do it. His energy and natural storytelling cadence were unique and unmatched. Battling abuse and addiction from childhood, he beat the odds to record one of the greatest albums of all time along with so many other anthems and features. RIP DMX.

The UK is absolutely not racist. Nope, there is no racism in the UK. Move along, no racism to see here. The UK is the most tolerant and welcoming country around.

By giving the police the discretion to use anti-protest powers some of the time, the government takes away our freedom all of the time.

My speech on why @UKLabour voted against the @Conservatives' #CrimeBill which does more to protect statues than women.
