And getting burnt by whoever runs the KFC Social Media. The sad part is that someone must have told them this stuff works. And it probably does. It is probably preaching to the choir but some people probably lap it up. Prepare for all sides doing it on billboards in the inevitable looming campaign. I am guessing there has been a blanket ban on bacon sarnies already.

They seem to be adopting a Trump-style "troll" strategy since Johnson/Cummings took "power". It's not working.

Sorry, what? You are aware that lots of people with a lot of power and money (ie "elites") are desperately trying to get us out of the EU, to make the UK a Tax haven.

You understand that, correct?

(Seems I'm pretty close to being called a sheeple, fan of the MSM and other weird incel insults.)

Yeah because your oligarchs - the Barings, Coutts and Rotschilds and whoever the **** they are probably dont have any other methods of avoiding taxes....

Hardly a conspiracy theory it's pretty clear many MP's have always thought if they drag it out long enough and vote against anything the government does and refuse to make a decision on what type of Brexit they would support they hope enough people will simply get fed up and vote to end the chaos. As did the Welsh!

When did the Welsh get an EU vote?
Do you mean the Irish?

Time will tell. Remember the Sun and Kinnock? It just takes one of the scattergun approach to strike a chord with enough people. However contemptible it may seem to most, it can still work. There are masses of people with no interest in politics. Then someone they know will share something like this on Facebook. Then it becomes fact in some people's minds. That is why Boris kept parroting "Surrender Bill". If this stuff didn't work then he would be nowhere near politics, let alone PM. Whilst clear to most that he has no substance at all, a lot of people buy the shtick. They hear a soundbite they like and bang. There is a finite number of people to target as there are very large numbers who would vote blue or red, even if the policy was the execution of their first born. And quite a few in the middle are those with no interest in politics whilst having political views. Find the right sound bite and you are off and racing.

Is that the same Corbyn who has been calling for a General election virtually every day since the last election and frequently argued every day the Tories are in power the poorest and most vulnerable suffer ... the one who refuses to have an election?

The one who refuses to have an election YET. Timing is everything.
October 15th is the day students (who have been registering on the electoral rolls in their thousands) are most likely to be on the move.

Yes timing for party political advantage over seeking a democratic mandate for their actions/what's good for the country.

Timing to prevent further deception and foul play by Johnson.
Johnson really underestimated just hoe many people would be onto him when he became PM. It's been his downfall. Cowardly, self serving, adulterous, scumbag.

Is there any update on any trade deals with the rest of the world we've managed to roll in the event of a no deal Brexit?

How's the one with the US getting on? The one that currently gives us a GBP41 Billion surplus?

What will that be like on a bare WTO?

No need, were not having a No Deal. It's sorted, we'll drag it out again 'til the remain and get their way and everyone just gives up. Brexit Party grows, Labour get rid of Corbyn and BHA stay up by 2 points. I have 2020 sorted.
