Martin_T Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 I've never understood the view of Leave voters that 'Remoan' is the choice of the elite. Farage, Johnson, Banks, Rees-Mogg etc are all very rich, white men. Brexit is a movement of the ultra-elite to achieve a right wing hegemony and the people that will likely suffer the most if they manage to achieve this, are the people at the bottom of the ladder.

Don Dan Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Labour should "unequivocally back Remain" in a fresh Brexit referendum and only then pursue power in a general election, its deputy has said. Tom Watson said there was "no such thing as a good Brexit deal" and the 2016 Leave vote had been "invalidated". His comments put him at odds with the party's leader Jeremy Corbyn, who has not committed to back either side in another vote if Labour wins power. Unite leader Len McCluskey said Mr Watson's views "don't really matter". Pure gold from Labour. The split, at odds and dispute I mean. This really needs to be taken out of the hands of the politicians and given back to the people. The referendum question should read, “Based on what you know so far and what you’ve witnessed, should we leave or remain?” The reasoning behind that wording is despite what or who you believe is telling the truth or porkies the real outcome of Brexit will take years to materialise.

Cade Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Some fuzzy logic from the English High Court explaining their ruling to kick the case straight up to the Supreme Court. They ruled that because proroguation was a political decision based not on Law but on Parliamentary convention, then they can't make a ruling on it. So, because it's not based on Law, they decided it can't be illegal. Luckily, the Supreme Court more or less IS the constitutional court and they CAN make a ruling.

DETTY29 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 (edited) It's very possible that the Supreme Court will find prorogue lawful due to differences between Scots and English, Welsh law however the the judgement today in the Scots Court found that the PM misled and lied to the Head of State.

Dusk_Till_Dawn Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 A referendum isn’t going to solve anything. All you’ll end up with is another group who lose narrowly and feel too aggrieved to let it go. Back in 2016 there should have been a consensus over a genuine compromise. Too many on both sides in the commons have been pursuing their own ends and agendas and this is where we are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So she's confirming that the content of Yellowhammer is not good and the public need to take steps to prepare properly if there is a no deal. To not allow people to determine what they need to do in order to ensure they have appropriate food supplies and medicine is criminal. To know the content and to not be concerned enough that it changes her approach on Brexit suggests she is fundamentally callous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Joanna Cherry made the factually correct observation that the Court of Session today was a higher court than the English High Court decision because the English hearing was a first instance one, while the Court of Session was acting as the appeal court above the previous hearing in Edinburgh. Regarding the stark difference between the two rulings... none of the TV news coverage has covered ground regarding the fact that these two rulings have been derived from two different legal systems. There has also been no thought towards what material differences there were between the submissions to the courts. To attempt to understand why these courts have ruled differently, surely it would be necessary to understand what was submitted to the courts by the legal teams.

Victorian Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 (edited) People like Andrea Leadsom are the type of so-called politicians who would absolutely find no difficulty in accepting and working within an actual dictatorship. She's already given the game away before regarding that. She's been quite clear and overt in the past that nobody but the government should have any say in Brexit, as well as being entirely at ease with withholding important information. "It's between us and the EU" was a very brief comment, but it said an awful lot more about her mindset. You can add the likes of Morgan, Zahawi, Villiers, Cleverly, Raab, Kwarteng, Truss and McVey to that particular type of Tory scumbag. The type of people who would try to justify actual dictatorship without a second thought. Edited September 11, 2019 by Victorian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
