BoZo off today to ask Queen to suspend parliament

[longwayoff]

Do we fancy a full on civil war? Have we all gone completely mad? This is democracy? AIBU to say this is several steps too far?

@Jesaminecollins
What you think we need someone who gives not one solitary fuck for the on going effect this shit situation is going to leave people in? Who has never had a clue on what is to have to decide whether to eat or pay for heating? Who has never had to jump through hoops and speak and deal with the most dead inside arseholes to prove a loved one does indeed have a disability and does indeed need additional money to get them through those additional needs?
You enjoy living in your ivory tower.

This isn’t normal - it isn’t normal for a prime minister to just stop parliament for a number of weeks for no good reason.

Parliament is usually paused for the queens speech for days, not fucking weeks.

This is a slow drip drip of making little tweaks here and there to properly hold government to account.

It’s like boiling a frog. The frog doesn’t notice as the water slowly heats up and by the time it’s too late, it’s dead.

don't even let that enter your head

Sounds a bit like you’re channelling Kim Jong

@Jesaminecollins did you miss the part where I said the GFA is fucked? No your fucks to give are all about Labour and Jezza? Really?

Sounds like she’s a Tory bot to me.

No Deal and then a GE will be held and Tories will lose

OK then.

@Alsohuman

No I am someone who used to vote Labour until Corbin took over.

@Iggly

Get real - what choice did Boris have?

An unelected PM preventing our elected MPs from having a meaningful say on the most important issue to face our country in generations. It's disgusting. How far we have fallen.

The PM was elected in line with procedure (and by quite some margin). MPs have had several opportunities to have a meaningful say, once when voting to hold the EU Ref, again when they voted to invoke A50, again when they took control over parliament business (and couldn't then agree on anything) and then started to form a so called 'People's Parliament' to try and achieve god knows what. They have all been wholly inefficient, that's the disgusting part.

Get real - what choice did Boris have

Get real about your statement about labour never getting back in? Would you like a one party state?

As for what choice.... well he can pull his head out of his Tory based universe and stop pandering to the fucking ERG who are a fringe minority.

Yes people voted Brexit. Well the vote was marginal, it was based on a fraudulent campaign so maybe we shouldn’t go down the road of a hard Brexit to appeal to a minority.

BoZo will do what Cummings says. Cummings will do as the data indicates. Cummings is BoZo's Steve Bannon. BoZo will continue to develop his new presidential style and will probably be as successful as the original. Scary.

I would have thought you'd have learned how to spell your nemesis's name by now. You've misspelled it more than once.

That was @Jesaminecollins.

@Iggly

I never wanted to leave the EU - I voted stay

@Hasenstein

What?

No Deal, but who would give Corbyn the reigns of the country in the event of a no deal?

The man was a Brexiteer for decades and all it took was it not being politically favoured to nudge him completely to the other side with no explanation.

I think people would forgive him less easily for being an unprincipled pet poodle who is led by the nose, than for being an outspoken IRA sympathiser at the actual time British civilians were being killed by the IRA.

than for being an outspoken IRA sympathiser at the actual time British civilians were being killed by the IRA.

Corbyn talked to the IRA.

Thatcher talked to the IRA.

One of them was open about it. The other told lies.

@Hasenstein

What?

Oh, sorry, I thought you'd been talking about Jeremy Corbyn. I hadn't heard of this Corbin fellow.

The PM was elected in line with procedure (and by quite some margin). MPs have had several opportunities to have a meaningful say, once when voting to hold the EU Ref, again when they voted to invoke A50, again when they took control over parliament business (and couldn't then agree on anything) and then started to form a so called 'People's Parliament' to try and achieve god knows what.

^^ totally agree with this.

I voted Remain for what it's worth but have been following daily politics all this time and have come to the conclusion that's there's no way out of this. Parliament will agree on nothing Brexit ever.

Really, they should never have agreed to trigger Article 50. The argument should have been then.

We are a tin pot democracy with a useless monarch.

Maybe this Parliament won't but then what we need is a general election. I imagine the Torries would return a much larger majority and get some sort of Brexit through shortly after - I personally don't want that but at least is respects our democracy.

Remain MPs failed to spot the key moment was late March/early April. The ship sailed. They didn't notice.

Very frightening times. What can be done now? Rory Stuart is talking about setting up an alternative parliament in another setting. Is it too much to hope that that idea has legs? How can people like Rudd not resign when they spoke so clearly against it during the leadership campaign?

My only hope is that BJ must have feared parliament to do something so radical so maybe there are enough Tory rebels to bring him down.

Sickening seeing JRM's smug face just now having just got back from advising the queen to screw us all over.

And how the fuck are there still people who see Corbyn as more dangerous than Johnny???

I never wanted to leave the EU - I voted stay

You’re making no sense in your posts.

Has the bot broken??

@Hesenstein . Why do all these Tory troll bots always spell it Corbin? It's like their miniscule brains can't cope with spelling it properly.
What do they think Jeremy will do? Cry because they spell it wrong? Like my DD says "ooh burn"
