“Scotland, you say? Why that traitorous nyaff is bound to be scheming up plans with those rotters the SNP.”

I don’t read the comments but this is 100% there somewhere.

There is nothing about this screenshot that isn’t absolutely hysterical.

TINFOIL HAT ON

Is Marr deliberately being obtuse here to feed Stetson an open goal where she can look like the great progressive hero?

why does she sound so much like she’s from the West Country at times?

That’s where she lives, and has done for quite a number of years (her husband was the MP for Chippenham for a term)

oh

i did that always naive thing of looking up where her constituency is and assuming she might live there

Bear in mind that the part of Scotland where she’s from is also one of the most upper-middle class, too. Her Scottish accent has never been strong.

yeah i knew she had one of those quite English sounding Scottish accents but i never noticed the West Countryisms before (i’ve avoided hearing her speak very much tbf and didn’t know she was Scottish for ages)

Mmmm, another three months of pissing about are on the way

I know they can’t do this, but my personal preference would be for a longer extension that was contingent on (something that gave a clearer view of what was actually going on) happening

While writing that, I realised that all I actually wanted was for a total revocation of this piss-stupid situation, but that ain’t happening

Can’t believe this is real for a second, but obviously he wasn’t watching the rugby - he’s not a tory…

Surely they must be fully pissed off at all the childish idiocy by now. Pretty sure Europe has a bunch of other stuff to deal with, like, large parts of Barcelona are basically a giant running protest at the moment.

I was surprised to learn Swinson was Scottish because I thought her accent sounded like broad west country. (I guess I’m saying I’m totally with you on what you’re hearing.)

Keep staring at it. Surely they understand that the WW2 vibe has been fully co-opted by the Leave side. What on earth do they think this is saying to anyone? Or maybe it’s literally aimed at marginals with an ageing population who might make the connection in order to get Boomer and older Remainers to vote Lib Dem, in which case maybe it’s weirdly genius.

(To put into context, though, I am 44, and the bit of history I am most familiar with is pre-War and WW2, and without the explanation I wouldn’t ever have twigged what this was riffing on and would have just been completely baffled.)
