• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

Thinking of writing a post-apocalypse novel

´Brexit Bitch´

Prime minister Michael Gove has secretly been filmed in extra tight imported German leader-hosen, stuffed with an orange in his mouth and spanked mercilessly by an equally agitated Boris Johnson.

Nigel Farage films the whole affair and is threatening to pass the footage onto the newly independent European nation of 'The republic of Scotland' to gain some leverage. He has never forgiven the other leaders of the Brexit campaign for not throwing out the old European directive that banned smoking in pubs.

Or.... anyone with a vote could do the sensible thing and vote REMAIN.
 
This is the wrong place for politics, I think.
 
I'll use the opportunity because I've been wanting to ask this for a while. Are politics/current developments totally out of bounds here? If so, can't we have another forum for that topic?
 
I enjoy the respite from political comments, which are everywhere else on-line, much of it a tidal wave of bullshit. Of course, if it 's a separate forum, I can just avoid it.

I had intended 'Brexit Bitch' to be a novel, not a fact based boo, but ... there you go, fact is stranger than fiction.

Sounds like a sequel to 50 shade of Sh-te writing ... 50 shades of political grey
 
Satire has a time honoured place in our democracy. Blooming democracy. Those blooming misguided Reform Acts, 1832, 1867, 1884.

The palace is not safe when the cottage is not happy. As for our majority, one is enough - Disraeli.
