"This House can no longer keep this country hostage," he told MPs, saying Parliament had become "dysfunctional". But the PM said he would persist with his efforts to get an early election, telling MPs that "one way or another" the current deadlock had to be broken. From the man who was one of the prime movers in helping create the deadlock earlier in the year. For you Matt... Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted October 28, 2019 Report Share Posted October 28, 2019 What annoys me most about this whole debacle is that when you watch it on TV it's always the same twenty odd members that speak or raise points of order; there are 600+ (including my MP) that just sit on their hands and do as they're told.

Bailey Posted October 30, 2019 Report Share Posted October 30, 2019 I think the GE is a mistake for the Tories. Ultimately Labour and Lib Dems can lose but still win and form a Govt. Tories have no partners in Parliament now that they stabbed the DUP in the back. There are going to be lots of independents and smaller parties winning seats than normal (in my opinion) and the Lib Dems are likely to perform very well given their very clear stance on Brexit. They may even take my vote depending on their other policies. Whilst the polls are in their favour, I just can't see Johnson convincing enough people to vote for him given that he is a duplicitous twat and the front benches are full of similar sorts. holystove and MikeO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree completely, quite the opposite unless the front benchers were forced in to speaking; it was Dominic Grieve, Hillary Benn, Jess Phillips, Kenneth Clarke, Jo Swinson and Ian Black to name a few off the top of my head. The front benches were largely empty or mute most of the time and Rees-Mogg even had a lie down at one point he was so bored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad many years ago (talking 40 odd) used to know the guy who was the chief racing columnist for them and he said it was editorial policy across the "paper" for their writers to write assuming their buyers had the reading skills of a twelve year old. I'm sure they've amended that policy over the years, it's probably closer to six year olds now, and that's being harsh on many a six year old. pete0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted December 2, 2019 Report Share Posted December 2, 2019 Since Brexit is apparently binary, and if you’re still a believer, and don’t believe that it hasn’t evolved into something that into more than “leave means leave”, then I assume you’re in the same boat as this guy?
