Apparently they have been working behind the scenes with the Tories for a couple of years.

I don't pretend to know much about the DUP I knew of their existence but didn't know who/what they represent. From what I've heard this morning/afternoon, it's about as bad as it gets, and is a little scary. They are creationists (dinosaurs existed for fucks sake and evolution may have been called a 'theory' by Darwin, but it is now and has been for a very long time...a fact), they oppose LGBT rights, anti abortion (inc for rape victims, which is inhumane imo) and that's before you delve even further into their history. Where's a crying smiley when you need one

^ So they make the Tories look liberal, then?

Theresa says, five more years. Just 59 months out dear

Sorry
Just occasionally I have to vent.
But it's from the heart

^ No apology necessary. Just trying to lighten the mood... a wee bit.

^ And along those lines...

I know I've posted this before, but, once again, it seems appropriate!

^ In a perverse way that has cheered me up
