They would still need a plan to leave and there is none. Many of us would have accepted a soft (maybe temporary) Brexit as a 52-48 result would signal and the freedom to move again at a later stage. Once there we could have changed our systems and regathered. Pete North (he of the potty mouth) and his dad Richard wrote loads and loads of articles/plans for this which were widely praised.
  2. Re: Another Extension. It's not the Food I'm worried about to be honest It's medicines, water and power. There are people claiming to be in the know who say these basics are not yet sorted in a No Deal event.

    Times - (I can only see the top bit without paying) have started naming names involved too. Not seen many interviews with them though. For Info - Sonia Khan is a leaver through and through and is not part of Spreadsheet Phil's rebels. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/sajid-javid-aide-sonia-khan-fired-in-mafia-style-hit-056gn0z3r Shows the mistrust between Hammond and Cummings though - I guess May feels similar along with a few former ministers.

    It's beginning to close in on Mad Dog Cummings now. He doesn't have the right to order armed police to do anything. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/aug/31/boris-johnson-must-launch-inquiry-dominic-cummings-reign-of-terror I saw Steve Bray accost him (via twitter) recently and he looked like butter wouldn't melt in his mouth.

    More seriously Dominic Cummings has apparently lost his rag and fired one of Sajid Javid's staff for socialising with Phillip Hammond's friends. The man seems to have a fiery temper. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/aug/30/sajid-javid-was-not-told-in-advance-of-advisers-sacking-by-cummings

Takes me back to Darren Grime's flying visit to Switzerland where he extolled the virtues of the Schengen Area without realising it much to twitters hilarity.
  8. I was OK - the Landlord gave me a free pint to replace the one that was spilled too :) Worth noting they will try and grab through windows though.
  9. at the John the Unicorn - furiously tweeting anti BJ tweets lol - some young boys tried to take my phone - furious almost threw my pint over him - he ran away I've seen the same boys at bus stops on rye lane - will put up photo if I see them and LOL moaned to @patel4witham as well as the Met

    There is a protest at 5:30 outside Parliament if anyone feels like it. I'm not in the right mood.

    What is the point of a head of state that does nothing. Straight home tonight or I'll be arguing all night the foul mood Boris has put me in :)
  13. "perhaps if people like you didn't behave like you do you'd be accepted more" takes me right back to the school playground
  14. And unless people have been subject to it I think it's unfair ro call me out - I've been attacked many times and it's started again recently.

You remind me of Norman Tebbit talking about gay people in the 1980s.

    Boris is proroguing parliament at this moment
  19. English is a language that has mutated all throughout it's history so we have to accept it :) Even though I can hardly understand what some youngsters say to me.
  20. This paralysis of government won't be until Oct31 - It'll be for years and years whilst we talk/don't talk to the EU, accept/don't accept a WA/FTA, Negotiate with Trumps people and then possibly find Biden in charge etc etc.
  21. This site shows three entries all on 13/02/2018 24-30 325K 26 325K 28-30 650K https://nethouseprices.com/house-prices/london/london/upland%20road
  22. "99% percent of the fires result from human actions" https://edition.cnn.com/2019/08/22/americas/amazon-fires-humans-intl-hnk-trnd/index.html Even Bolsonaro says it's insurgents from abroad. More importantly It's also supposed to be a rain forest and should be naturally too humid for fires but the environment is changing.
  23. So how do we put out the fires in the Amazon ?
  24. it still says "under offer" - so maybe another Bill
