Northern Ireland’s devolved government has reconvened after a two-year boycott, with Sinn Féin’s Michelle O’Neill due to make history by becoming the first nationalist first minister.
The former Democratic Unionist party leader, Edwin Poots, has been elected as Speaker by members.
Holy shit. It’s really happening!
This timeline is wild
Well, Peter Thiel is pushing for augments. The only thing is, we will have to endure the Eugenics War and a nuclear WW3. If I make it that long, I will be 92 when Zeframe Cochrane breaks the warp barrier.
If Northern Ireland can Brexit back to the EU, then Scotland can become independent and join them, followed by Wales, followed by everywhere in the UK being in the EU except for a 1 mile circle around Boris Johnson’s house.
No take backs.
Also, I think we could call it rejEUning (rejoining)

“Ms. O’Neill’s elevation to first minister of Northern Ireland on Saturday will mark the first time that a politician who wishes to take the territory out of the United Kingdom has held that role.”
The fleg folks will never let this stand
