Klugheim STILL opened before it though...

I think people on here are fine to complain about the delay(s) in this, especially coupled with a distinct lack of communication from the park and no real evidence to suggest an opening date... From what you hear on the grapevine Merlin's half-heartedness in quality seems to be flying in Derren's perfectionist ideals... Which isn't a perfect match obviously... When the biggest project in the UK has been delayed and we have no real idea why then of course people will be negative... It would honestly be dreadful if we just continued to just play ignorance and live in a bubble on here as a result... Parks should be held accountable for mess ups (not Disney fan level mess ups, where the carpet is overturned), and hence 'negativity' comes in...

I've always found this a strange choice, most powered coasters do coast at some point in their layout (especially ones like Fish), so what doesn't make it a cred?

And miss out on a cred? If you wanted to avoid any ride that provided pain that's a damn high number of missed creds...

Shearer as manager? We want things to be more than PASHUN!!! We need tactical acumen to take on the international teams with a bit more panache and skill... Laboured and dull is a byword for England these days... Needs a complete overhaul of the English system though to fix this...

Jeez I hope no one voted out due to all the free movement of people, mean like its not like the EU could turn around a demand that any trade agreement comes with that as a requirement... The stories coming out of people just being general racist tossers is quite scary though... I get the feeling a fair amount of outers expected to be gone in the weekend, not two years... Also, they have a plan but its behind closed doors? No, sorry, not buying that bull... Given we were told by Gove "no one listens to experts" who unsurprisingly predicted everything going a bit pear shaped, an open and honest timeline plan would easily help the markets stop fluctuating a bit and actually get everyone behind at least something... Pointing fingers at the PM shows a lack of class and how stupid the campaigns have been, focusing all on childish in fighting rather than the actual importance of the decision to the public...

According to someone on Sky News, Leave questioned by Downing Street had no plan (you know, the PM who supported the Remain campaign)... And Leave wonder why everyone is so confused and worried... The plan did not extend past the referendum, which is embarrassing for any political campaign, let alone one this major...

Pinfari inverted coaster... 7 casualties already confirmed, the park is going to suffer majorly as it's already looking much more serious than Smiler ever was... Fortunately M&Ds is seen as a funfair more than a full on park, so it might not have a serious impact like Smiler, but that should not detract from how incredibly massive this incident is for the industry...

Problem is, would the turnout of 16 year old be any good? Based upon the 18-24 figures, the answer would potentially be no... 40% turnout does not make your voice heard...

Think the question should go more towards why do young people not vote? Perhaps the focus on grades over life skills in school life is more the issue in that regard... Either that or future elections have a LIKE for Tory, RETWEET for Labour, DM for UKIP option...

If Klugheim opens before this Thorpe should be embarrassed by the management of this project...

Only if it's one of them cult suicide ones since Boris will be the next PM...

"Once a plan is in place" Such a statement pretty much shows why the market exploded... There is no plan, there never was a plan beyond leaving the EU... So now we have 2 years and 3 months of uncertainty for apparent freedom from, well I'm not actually sure what freedom or who had our country in the first place... Should Scotland hold a second referendum they will leave... They stayed due to the EU membership, why would they keep within the turmoil when they want to remain? Northern Ireland has a similar situation, only made worse due to the border with the Republic... They could well unify due to the massive complications they will encounter from bring out and the majority of areas also wanting in... Cornwall council is my favourite thing out of this, as they've asked the government to confirm that any EU funding they will lose (circa £60m over 10 years) is kept... Where's that money going to come from? What other areas of the country have had their voters forget how much the EU supports certain aspects of the UK? It'll get messy, very messy before things stabilise...

"A great day for the UK!" they cried, independence bank holiday pencilled into the 2017 calendars... Yet Scotland hold a referendum and leave, whilst both parts Ireland, due to the border issues unify once more... Great Britain, led into the next world by Boris Johnson, with a privatised NHS system and further education cuts, is left with Wales and more social issues as the economy spirals down due to the uncertainty... That is our future... That is what people voted for...

I assume both, since BatB is for the Magic Kingdom park... Tokyo is the kinda place that would just build both for the lulz...

Depends if security have access to the music control box (probably not, plus if they turned it off wrong then could get in further trouble)...

Assuming this has a proper control box these days and is all automated, who left the key in the ignition?

Just a thought, if a quick cash grab refurb is of this quality, imagine how good DisneySea's purpose built attraction will be...

Wouldn't be a new Merlin ride unless SOMETHING thematic from the plans got scrapped...

I think the projected face actually makes all the human animatronics look a bit iffy... The Olaf one by comparison looks amazing... 300 minutes though... In THAT queue? *dies*

No different to the politicians tbh...
