Why? To escape her and her policies?
Brexit 2, the UK leaves the Earth altogether to defeat the small boats once and for all
That is actually canonical in Dr Who. They call it Starship UK.
They have a robotic Suella Braverman that tries to shoot down the TARDIS. If a small boat is bigger on the inside, it still counts.
and they leave by lobotomizing a star whale and building the new UK on its back as it swims through the stars
Yeah living conditions on Earth would be so vile that we’d go to Mars and leave her behind.
Or send her to Mars, and leave her to figure out how to get herself back.
Yep. They’ll be running that hard from her, indeed.
sounds like she just volunteered to be sent to Mars
She can live there with Elon. $5 says they kill each other on the way there.
so THAAAATS what happened to the crew of the Hail Mary
If you read the book that’s actually the reason why they put them in medical comas. They feared they’d get cabin fever and kill each other on the trip.
Fuckin A. That makes sense.
I initially planned on reading it but I had already started The Captives War and I wasn’t about to stop.
Bitch you couldn’t outlast a cabbage.
I’m pretty sure she is right. Where else would Brits be safe from her incompetence?
If my granny had wheels, she’d be a shopping trolley
The PMs after David Cameron are only in it for the power to feed their own ego and not about governing, especially the Tory PMs. Kier Starmer was not a great Labour PM but he’s less egotistical than his Tory counterparts. Andy Burnham appears to be more down to earth but only time will tell.
What’s really frustrating about Liz Truss is she is too stupid to understand how stupid she is. If she could wrap her head around that, she might just shut up and we’d never have to hear from her again.
She’s definitely not the only politician in that predicament.
Dunning Kruger…
let’s see you become britain’s second female prime minister.
EDIT : OK, I guess
- The joke that she was already britain’s nth female prime minister didn’t go well
- Theresa May was britain’s second female prime minister, truss was the third
- to be clear, she achieved nothing and to hell with her.
lol, I still don’t really get the joke, but sympathy upvote based on the edit because I hate when that happens to me <3
the joke is "oh, you think you’re so much better than her? Let’s see you achieve the only achievement she has (becoming the third female british prime minister) when you can’t become the third of anything AGAIN.
I guess it all got fumbled and was shit to begin with.
Probably US Defaultism didn’t help. heh. I watch panelshows so I know a little more news than the average, but it still whooshed me.
I think it wasn’t so much poorly done as just didn’t land quite well AND once anything gets a downvote or two, it snowballs. heh.
Thank you for explaining. I may not be falling down laughing, but I am quite amused. <3
My favourite joke was to refer to her as “Conservative party backbencher, Liz Truss” but after looking her up on Wikipedia, I see that she has since lost her seat, so even that doesn’t work.
How did she become PM in the first place?
…and there would have been a chicken in every pot…
Well, if the tories - and Truss particularly - had remained in power until then, I can imagine that a lot of people would be taking extreme measure to get away, so I can see her point.
They’d be sent up as indentured servants, as that would be many people’s only way of survival in perma-austerity. Those who got close to putting away enough company-store credits for the voyage back would find their oxygen bills algorithmically surge-priced upwards.
She had sick spacial exploration program that was about to reveal to everyone but you made fun of her with that forsaken lettuce and now everyone of is lost it. Congratulations to everyone one of you, ungrateful bastards.
She should romaine quiet on concepts she doesn’t grasp.
You sunk her just like an iceberg.
That joke is a little gem, that is.
2040 even sounds ridiculous.
IMHO most countries could still accomplish this. There’s just no political will for it. Mars is worthless to most people before terraforming, and now we need to terraform Earth first. How can we expect to fix Mars if we can’t stop ruining Earth?
There’s that, but also, looking at the sort of people pushing hardest for establishing Martian colonies, they are all the sort of folks who would tell you how you can be advancing humanity on another planet, then deduct the cost of your oxygen consumption from your paycheck, if not just cutting off the air supply if you happen to get a little uppity about “muh human rights” when they want you to work 16 hours a day for some dumb idea they had.
