Westminstenders: The Tory Party Spectacular

[RedToothBrush]

A row over parliamentary language and conduct and how MPs are afraid of extremists has over shadowed talk of Brexit.

Cummings has said if you don't want to leave without a deal, vote for a deal.

Yet there isn't a Johnson approved one in front of the Commons and the EU are utterly despairing of Johnson's blank non papers and his full on Trump bullshit.

Then there's the threats to the rule of law.

Apparently there are five known suggestions to bypass the Benn Act and refuse to ask for an extension.

This weekend sees the start of the Tory Party Conference. With a parliamentary vote to block a recess, its rather scuppered plans for the rest of the conference. Johnson's planned speech at the conference clashes with PMQ so he may well not attend the Commons.

Expect the conference to be.... Er... Inflammatory...

So ‘Surrender Act’ isn’t the PM’s emotional frustration, but a calculated electoral ploy?

Oh for god sake are these journalists THAT thick and THAT unaware of election slogans and propaganda? Especially after 'take back control' and 'strong and stable'???!!!

bangs head on the table repeatedly and starts twitching manically

Jesus christ what industry do they work in?

Political fucking journalists and they didn't spot it at a mile off?

They should be seeing it, before it's spelt out.

PMK

Fgs, is there really some journalists that hadn’t realised that yet

Are they not seeing that? Or are they just underlining it?

PMK. Missed a whole day.

Farage already making noises about labelling any deal negotiated with EU as a ‘surrender deal’ so could yet backfire on them.

And anyone else wanting a deal to get us out of this circle of hell.

Don’t think we’ve had this yet: Dodgy visa for Jennifer Arcuri with a bonus link to Prince Andrew.

Dear God, what numpties. Would post a picture of my cat being more intelligent, but she’s run off to hide.

PMK with a pic of what will soon be the latest addition to our household:

Really not happy with, 'Never surrender,' or whatever variant Johnson & co. use.

Hideous. ☹️

That's what capitulating to the ERG and the extreme Brexiters has achieved

They now think probably correctly that No Deal is now an acceptable outcome for some of the electorate. They have succeeding altering expectations

The Latest Word:

A serving soldier is off to the glasshouse for tweeting that a Labour MP would "perish in the coming civil war."

...and that Hovis add was filmed in Dorset, and has very properly been re-voiced with the correct accent.

Shall we talk about the connotations of "no surrender" with Northern Irish politics?

Shall we start by mentioning not surrendering to the Irish and then mentioning traditional songs like 'The Crimson Banner'?

Or just quietly assume it's a completely innocent coincidence?

Extreme close-up PMK of girl cat because she was sitting on my stomach.

That’s adorable, AuldAlliance, but before you know it you’ll be completely wrapped around it’s tiny furry paw. And then it will start leaving dismembered body parts on the doormat

I know, Red.

It makes me feel physically sick.

PMK. What a beautiful kitten auldalliance!

pmk

QueenOfThorns I expect most of my my sofas and chairs to be dismembered long before any actual animal prey are involved. But you're right. The cuteness is a decoy.

What a gorgeous baby kit, AuldAlliance
It'll soon have you wrapped around its paws

Red I've never heard such dreadful words... Strong and stable.. Surrender bill.. Oh wait..

Actually I have when an mp said she was going to stab someone in the front...

Oh yes macdonnel lynching comments...

Oh yes battery acid over Farage...

Oh yes macdonnel lynching comments...

He didn’t say this. He said he heard someone say it.

Jess Phillips “knife in the front” was not about a violent act at all - it was saying she was open with him about criticism of him.

Oh look. It's amazing what pops up when you mention stuff about propaganda slogans and thought terminating clichés.

I'm sure MN has a big alert button that is pressed everytime you point them out.

Remember the paras got away with using a photo of Corbyn on the target range
