nxjen Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 BJ making an absolute tit of himself and by association the country. Jeremy Corbyn not doing much better by calling for a general election he doesn?t stand a chance of winning, in fact nobody does. I don?t like living through these interesting times.

malumbu Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 UK to reject high speed rail (damned continental idea) and with the reopening of the pits move back to steam power. Gunboat diplomacy next. Hopefully there there is also dynamite strategically placed in the Channel Tunnel too.

diable rouge Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I'm guessing Corbyn's cross party meeting yesterday deciding to go down the legislative route to stop No Deal rather than the oft presumed VONC route straight after recess, spooked Johnson's junta into action. They want a VONC so they can play the People v MPs election card if they lose it.By proroguing parliament for 5 weeks it severely limits the time to get legislation through before the next recess and not enough time after the Queen's Speech. However, they may have hit the prorogue button in haste according to this tweet...Proroguing now would be a bit futile, since under s3 of the Northern Ireland Executive Formation Act 2019, if Parliament is prorogued by 4 September then it must be recalled within 5 days, for 5 days.Even without my Remainy McRemain hat on, I would always back Grieve to outsmart Cummings when it comes to parliamentary procedure in the battle of the Doms...

peckman Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 IRS disgusting . Even more ridiculous that mps are on a summer recess then I read another one due due to conference season . How often do we read all police leave cancelled if there is a more emergency. Surely the same for mps?

diable rouge Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 This is quite the statement from the Speaker, only good news for the Rebel Alliance. Speaker John Bercow: ?I have had no contact from the Government, but if the reports that it is seeking to prorogue Parliament are confirmed, this move represents a constitutional outrage.?Hope they stick to the legislative route in Sept, if it looks like failing due to time constraints they can always press the nuclear VONC later...

Loutwo Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Brexit is now far less likely than ever before. I wonder if Boris has done this on purpose to create a Pinscher movement from the lagging remainers, so he can point fingers when Brexit doesn?t happen, call a GE, galvanise support to win a majority, and walk away from the whole Brexit debacle scott free.Or something like that.Louisa.
