“Speaking on a visit to NLV Pharos*, a lighthouse tender, which is moored alongside HMS Belfast on the Thames, he [Johnson] was asked if he had lied to the Queen when he asked her to prorogue parliament for five weeks. He replied: ‘Absolutely not. The high court in England plainly agrees with us but the supreme court will have to decide. We need a Queen’s speech, we need to get on and do all sorts of things at a national level’” It’s a good job he’s near water because his pants are in imminent danger of catching fire. The High Court in England did not “plainly agree” with him/them. The court ruled that it was not within its remit to examine or rule on the issue. It’s not the same thing. Does this gaslighting haunted haystack realise that court decisions are published and that people read the papers and watch the news? Astonishing. Just absolutely astonishing. * Rather aptly, Pharos was the name of the Great Lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the 7 Wonders of the Ancient World, which did in fact burn down. Edit: a quick fact check reveals that I had mixed it up with the Great Library of Alexandria (which did burn down). In fact, the lighthouse collapsed into a pile of rubble after a series of earthquakes, so the reference still works
But they don't read the publications in enough numbers to make any difference to him - and the news.....

We knew this would happen, we finally have a leader who will act on the democratic vote and now the countdown is getting closer, those opposed would and are throwing everything and the kitchen sink at stopping it. I did chuckle at labours proposal where it said we would have a second referendum where the choices they would offer would be remian or the deal they negotiated. Neither are a leave choice so ignoring the referendum to leave. Way to go before an election, forget the first vote people, you got it wrong so we as a labour government will offer you brino or remain.
or, you may have got it right based on the info being made available to you. but now you have more clarity and a lil more insight into the workings of the ones you intend handing back "controle" to, what say you?.
The SNPs interest is not a no deal Brexit It’s not remain either The SNP will want the U.K. to have a deal which keeps it in the customs union. Lib Dem’s don’t want to leave Labour - who knows? I know you @noobie struggle with subtlety but I hope that helps
Fin we are both old enough to remember the y2kers. The sense of impending doom and worlds end that seems to have been little more than a puddle in a pond but for the moaners of armageddon, it was a stepping strong to the current extreme remoaners. We are the 5th largest economy in the world and yet we are being asked to believe after we have left the eu project that we will suddenly turn into bermuda after a hurricane is the stuff of nonsense.
Yesterday I mentioned the "department for the protection of european way of life" that has now been created by the eu with echoes of early Germany After that, Junker gave a brief interview in what appears a sober state on the new department, his replacement, Brits being never fully committed to the eu and other things https://www.euronews.com/2019/09/12...itle-protecting-our-european-way-of-life-must
we all remember the doom and gloom. some of us have been hearing it for a lot longer. the problem with reffs is, and why the UK gov doesent like them is, because the opponents will keep hamering home that "we are the 5th ritchest nation". that dosent mean much to most the longer it goes on and the longer the soft leavers have to consider the realities
yip, i'm doing ok but it dosent feel like i'm in the fith ritchest contry. not when i look around me.
Absolutely, skint is relative - especially when something like x billion people live on less than 1 dollar a day
You own motorcycles Harry and you're married. The combination will always see you that way actually, speaking about money but not that many remainers seem to be interested in the body we are trying to leave. To avoid europe going into recession, the european central bank had been propping up the euro the last 3 years which they ended it in december after spending 2.6 trillion euros doing it. They said europe now needed to find a way to avoid the recession that is coming by standing on it's own two feet and without further subsidies. Today many of the worlds bankers are meeting in Frankfurt to start up another eu/euro bail out as since the last one, they have fallen further into the situation where a recession in the eurozone is inevitable 12.08 on the report timelime https://www.theguardian.com/busines...timulus-package-qe-mario-draghi-business-live
