It will be interesting to see but much of it is a red herring At the heart of it, as it has always been is, the eu has changed direction and people in the U.K. were saying not for us. Given we last voted to join the eec and not the eu over 40 years ago, it was not unreasonable to ask again, is this the way you want to move forward? The legislation was suggested, reviewed and agreed to then be put forward by parliament itself for the people to have an in or out . There was a vote, all sides said they would agree to the result and we voted to leave. A point here, it's clear most remainers are phsycic as most seem to know what leavers voted for and did not vote for. The point has been made that no one voted for a no deal, you could quite rightly say the same in that no one voted to leave with a deal, neither were on the ballet card What was on the ballet card was leave the eu or remain in the eu and parliament have spent 3 years trying to stop that democratic vote to leave. Those trying to block the government today have accused the government of lying, a point to note, all of those trying to block brexit are saying we are just trying to stop no brexit. When you look at the group claiming that, plaid cymru, snp, lid dems all stood and said they would stand in any future election, to revoke the peoples majority democratic vote. Most labour mp's have said the same, so it's clear where they are saying they just want to block no deal, they want to block brexit completely. When you ask them, you keep saying what you do not want, can you tell us what you do want? they offer nothing than stop the democratic vote to leave
Point of personal privilege! If a "Deal" with the EU for leaving was reached and included culling the first-born male child of every family in the UK, would that have satisfied Remainders who say, "No one voted for no deal but we have a deal ... so we can leave." I have to ask this because Remainders have not made it clear what constitutes a "deal", in their view.
As a matter of fact, I have. She's quite rational and calm when she is on her haloperidol. Which is whenever she is not on TV, obviously,.
How could anybody sit and watch that? I managed about 90 seconds before it was absolutely intollerable. YAB with her percentages, the last bastion of someone trying to twist the truth, then saying you can't base what you do next by the result of the referendum. She's up there with Own Jones. I never watched past this, but I remember her saying people who voted to leave should be banned from the TV a short while back so that only people who voted remain could get the message out. A truly odious woman and I have no idea why she's still given air time. Huq..."You can have Brexit, but you have to have your head chopped off. Would you vote for that?" Is this what debate looks like in this country now?
But is Corbyn really that confident Labour would win? Trouble is, if Corbyn does become Prime Minister; five minutes later he will step down and McDonnell will take over as PM. That is something none of us should really look forward to. By the way...... ........we still haven't left yet.....................
Chakrabati lost her shit this morning also, watch the whole thing if you wish or click on from 1 minute https://twitter.com/BBCPolitics/status/1168786960296497152
Oh. Fuck. Me. The simulation is fucked, the NPCs are all malfunctioning in a cascade error of calamity. Re-boot! Re-boot!
Apparently he resigned from government in July 2018 and now he’s joined the Lib Dem’s Remind me how it works again ? ( resigning and still having a job ? What about the constituency that voted for him, do they get to vote again ?)
Tories haven't had a majority in Parliament since the Yes result of the Brexit 2016 Ref. The party split in two shortly after that but, cowards and vermin that they are, they pretended to carry on as one party. Same as with Labour.
It's not surprising, his constituency voted to leave but he has acted to remain since the vote, he knew he would be removed as standing as a tory mp in the next election.
Lots of anti-democratic rats due to leave sinking ships, it would appear. Greening and Lee down, 648 to go.
Lee has joined the Lib dems who got 7% of the vote in his constituency at the last General election, he might not be an MP for much longer.
Not unless he is convicted of an offence with custodial sentence of more than a year, he is suspended from sitting in the Commons for two weeks, or is convicted of false expenses. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recall_of_MPs_Act_2015 I hope his expenses are accurate!
