It's three years ago now but I recall that he left it until the last minute before announcing whether he was in favour of leaving or remaining. To me, it was evident even then that his decision was based upon what would most likely enable him to achieve his personal political objectives. It had nothing to do with what was best for the UK. It was then, and remains to this day, what was and remains best for Boris Johnson. What an utter shambles this entire thing has become. You will be disappointed to know that I agree. Not at all.* It would have been remarkable if most on here could find anything within my post with which to disagree. * It seems that I hold you in higher regard than you imagine to be the case. |

No place is perfect, but even with the current shambles I’d rather live in this country than anywhere else in Europe, as in my personal experience, ie someone working in the provision of a basic human necessity, we are much fairer in this country than elsewhere in Europe or the USA.
Yes. Now. Just wait. |

Utter chaos and increasingly Pythonesque.
I think ohladdieladdieladdiebladeeblada and his mate(s) should form a government, with OME and that Jonathan bloke from Charlton as key advisors.
They couldn't do much worse.

Admin; may I attract your attention to this forum rule?
9. Each SaveEdgarStreet HFC Forum Member may have only one account. Multiple Accounts, once discovered, will lead to ALL accounts being operated in such a way, being banned.
Could you therefore invoke, fully, Rule no 9?

Generally we reduce offending multiple accounts to one. If the behaviour persists, then we go all nuclear on the miscreant’s ass. warning shots and all that. Our incredibly boring friend from the north would be long gone if we applied the rules strictly across the board on this point. But it you may have a point.... |

Tonight’s vote in the commons has all but guaranteed a no deal Brexit on 31st October.

Hideous creature.
And while he may have had a few misguided souls drooling even more than previously, that image will turn a good amount of soft brexiters away from the dark side. And it was the excellent Caroline Lucas who really tore him a new one.

Is that Tim otoole in the background? No, but it is a tool in the foreground. |

Tonight’s vote in the commons has all but guaranteed a no deal Brexit on 31st October. How so? Quite the opposite, but I’m all ears to alternative views. (Won’t happen but I may have said that before...) |

Tonight’s vote in the commons has all but guaranteed a no deal Brexit on 31st October. How so? Quite the opposite, but I’m all ears to alternative views. (Won’t happen but I may have said that before...) I see the following scenario playing out: A general election is called. Boris is successful in his attempt at deselecting rebel MP’s and the Tories have only pro Brexit candidates standing. Nigel Farage agrees that the Brexit Party will not put any candidates up for election. Jeremy Corbyn is stuck trying to convince people who voted to remain to vote Labour whilst trying not to lose people who would traditionally vote Labour but also voted to leave. With the Brexit party not running, Boris’s Conservatives may look like a tempting option for the latter. Traditional conservative voters have no where else to go so the majority stick with voting Conservative, with a small loss to the Lib Dem’s. The conservatives win a majority with these MP’s being pro Brexit. Legislation is passed almost immediately reversing any extension to the 31st October date and this we leave on that day. Of course it may play out totally differently (I have also known to be wrong!). Boris is a far more intelligent man than he puts across. I would not underestimate him for a second to pull it out of the bag. His career ambition has been to get into number 10 and he’s been there a month. He’s going to fight tooth and nail to stay. Also, Timmy O’Toole is elected as MP for Hereford and South Herefordshire and becomes the new Foreign Secretary. (I’m not 100% on this but I’ve been away for a few days and don’t want people to think I’m out of the loop with the Timmy O’Toole talk. Which I am. But keep that to yourself). |
