OUT WITH A DEAL EATING OUR CAKE AND LOVING IT suck it up remoaners
And like a typical anti democracy remoaner he decided the will of the people should be ignored the minute the democratic result was in total fecking hypocrite 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Despite it being voted in to law by the commons the spineless two faced remoaner MPs have totally abandoned any morals and decided to ignore the will of the British people.
It will be remembered and no election or referendum will ever be the same again in this country.
The one thing that will come is a massive surge in the popularity of UKIP or a similar party in the future who stand for the 52%.
Happy Days.

Interesting article by the Times on a report by Oxford University, I knew immediately the result in Wales was announced that it had been swung by the old wealthy white flight Anglo Saxon good life seekers vote and now finally a few years later others are starting to wake up to this phenonium.
A “phenonium.”
Lisa used to play one of those in the youth orchestra. Good she was by all accounts.
An idea isn't responsible for those who believe in it.

How on earth can Jeremy #Corbyn remain neutral on #Brexit - an issue that will have a massive impact on the young people I spoke to at the Freshers Fair in #Bangor today.
Anyhoo, going to be an interesting week. Surely it's inevitable a confidence vote will happen, regardless of who calls it, and it's inconceivable that Johhnson survives that, regardless of the consequences.
If they want to avoid allowing him to still be PM for the end of October, the 14 day timetable will then fall on the opposition to either come up with an alternative Govt. Every chance we see PM Corbyn within a month, even if it takes a commitment to limiting activity to a second referendum and subsequent GE. Every chance we don't though, and who knows where that ends up.

It's not dull. Historic times.
I think the main stumbling block to a Corbie temp government now is Swansong. She's got some big decisions to make.

And if Corbyn can't come up with a Unity Govt, would that then trigger a General Election? I'm only asking as he can't seem to keep his shadow cabinet together, let alone a cross-party alliance.

Corbyn is allowed a go first, then if he can’t, anyone else can have a go within that 14 days I think (ECB will correct me I’m sure). There are rumours that he’s coming round to the idea...

I did.
How anyone can watch that documentary and still think brexit is a good idea for the ‘ordinary people’ is beyond me.
They wouldn’t. By the same token they could have had an altogether different documentary and had me drive around South Wales with a camera crew visiting scores of derelict sites pointing out that all the tooling here was shipped to Hungary, there to Slovakia and on and on.
“What do the men and women who used to be employed here do now, Loh?”
“They struggle.”
I could have even had little Greta in a booster seat in the back and outlined my Syndicalist plans for pan-European localisation of production and consumption. Of the knock-on environmental benefits a drastic reduction in needless transportation would have.
“What do you think, Greta?”
“I adore you, Loh.”
“I know you do, love. I know.”

As I’ve said before, people don’t want globalisation when it impacts on jobs and pay but do want it when it comes to buying new 60’ TVs every year. And buying food at the prices we have become used to. And laptops, and phones, and clothes.
You can’t have one without the other.
Brexit won’t stop globalisation.

An extraordinary decision today. I’ve finally read the 25 page judgement and simply, wow. In a normal world, Boris resigns. And he should. I’m not sure he will though. Of course, if he doesn’t, a vote of no confidence would normally be inevitable but not in this parliament. What a muddle.
I’m more than a little concerned by SC overreach. They say they are not concerned by the PM’s motive, but I don’t see how you really disentangle motive. This one will rumble for decades.
Just wow.

No motive was given other than ‘it is all just a normal Queen’s Speech’ (outlined in the Da Costa memo).
(Johnson rather blew that out of the water this afternoon as an aside).

Agreed, but that wasn’t really my point. My point was based on para 61:
61 It is impossible for us to conclude, on the evidence which has been put before us, that there was any reason - let alone a good reason - to advise Her Majesty to prorogue Parliament for five weeks, from 9th or 12th September until 14th October. We cannot speculate, in the absence of further evidence, upon what such reasons might have been. It follows that the decision was unlawful.
That last sentence builds on the sentences preceding. Lawyers will have generations to pick this apart but to me this has the potential to opens up massive implications on motive in future judicial review of constitutional matters. Extraordinary. We will be debating this judgment for many, many years,

So they can't speculate on what such reasons might have been but speculated it must therefore be illegal...
