Brighton Jambo Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 (edited) Saying on BBC news that they are clearly positioning this to be unconstitutional and so won’t be put forward for royal assent so won’t be law.

Costanza Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 It's funny reading the logistical handstands of those criticising Tories for supporting the anti no deal bill but not the Tories who voted against Theresa May's bill preventing a Brexit deal. Almost as funny as anyone believing the current government is serious about negotiating a deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No deal it is then. I knew it! They want to force the PM to ask for an extension and accept it while blocking an election. Not going to happen.

Boris Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 1 hour ago, Brighton Jambo said: Sound like this time it could be for real. They will be loosely aligned in that they would both be conservative in nature but they would not take direction from WM and would set own direction on all policies. I really hope they do it this time. So a Caledonian DUP. Great... No wonder Davidson resigned. Leader in name only. Her Scottish MPs didn’t give a hoot about her or the party in Scotland as they are supping from Westminster’s teat. Not dissimilar to labour mps attitudes to their msp compatriots back in the day.

pharmaceutical01 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 On 02/09/2019 at 18:59, Victorian said: Johnson is trying to snake a new mandate on the back of Brexit Party votes. The Brexit Party menaced him by threatening direct opposition in every seat at any upcoming election if he didn't proceed to a no-deal exit. The implication is that if he delivers a no-deal then they'll stand aside. The vote share of those not voting for the Tories will be split, therefore maximising the Tories' chances of retaining power and getting a parliamentary majority. This election is not an election. It's a referendum tribute act. Up for grabs are all the usual general election goodies.

The Labour Party are at sixes and sevens as well. Jeremy wants an election but others want to hold off. They are not at all happy with Jeremy. This Bill when is passed will trigger an election called by Johnson. It will be interesting how Jeremy responds when Johnson calls for one.

Ibrahim Tall Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 17 minutes ago, Zlatanable said: Equally, could be viewed as strengthening the UK. Hardly, it would makes ‘Scottish’ votes even more irrelevant than they are currently. As the only two possible parties electable as a U.K. government would be reduced to one(labour). At least at the moment the U.K. wide party has to at least pretend it gives a shit about Scotland, an ‘English’ Conservative party wouldn’t have to fulfil the same criteria.

Had we said EEA/EFTA arrangement, it might just have got through. But May had her red lines, in part to placate the ERG, in part the DUP.

The Devolved governments are more representative of their place, opens a new perspective on the East (West) Lothian question. It means a UK Gov has a less centralised reality in Govt, with more of an unwritten constitution way, of achieving a sort of federal UK. Bit of a stretch IMO but I get your point.

Now whether or not you believe Johnson wants to leave without one the fact you remove the availability of a hard ball threat is in itself suicidal. I want to remain and I hope we do but watching this lot in Parliament in action is laughable lots of intelligence but no common sense. The other observation from tonight is the sheer discourteousness of MPs in the chamber continually talking when someone has the floor. Is it deliberate who knows but it’s totally disrespectful especially to the likes of me who are hoping that they are listening just in case there is epiphany moment (one can only hope🤪) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
