Brexit

Westminstenders: The Tory Party Spectacular

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...

Robert Carlyle for Dominic Cummings in the style of Begbie from Trainspotting

Major is the enemy and the BBC is being wrecked by non white people. Yay for the free press.

Cummings wants the Quentin Cameo Treatment.

That's how he sees himself. He's using the language of Quentin. He is very cinematic in his visualisation.

Incorrect.
The BBC is acting in a Stalinistic way with over zealous censorship, is the story.

He may see himself as Samuel L Jackson but I visualise him more as a foul mouthed psychopath. Artistic differences.

Samuel L Jackson ? Or Charles Manson?

Random18 · 27/09/2019 22:37

I think Mike Myers for Cummings.

Jason118 · 27/09/2019 22:37

No, Rowan Atkinson

Info on Jo Maugham and Jo Cherry's latest case in the Scottish courts:

goodlawproject.org/rule-law-not-thing-grifted-not-even-prime-minister/

This one aims to ensure that Johnson is compelled to send the extension letter. If all goes to plan it will end up in the Supreme Court during w/c 14/10.

These people have quite a track record. If Johnson has nightmares, Joanna Cherry is probably in them.

These are the people I will tell my daughter about!

Jo Maugham and Jo Cherry’s latest case

Jo-Jo vs BoJo.

This all feels more and more like House of Cards. However, truth is stranger than fiction.

"And now they will elect a new Chancellor... a strong chancellor... one who will not let our tragedy continue"

It's such a familiar story isn't it, so how has it come to replay itself here and now?

DarkAtEndOfUk · 27/09/2019 23:32

Major is the enemy and the BBC is being wrecked by non white people. Yay for the free press.

Cross ref/ the thread on "Who stands to gain if we crash out".

John Major's record should speak for itself. I've become quite a fan in the last week or so. "As Prime Minister Sir John Major oversaw Britain's longest period of continuous economic growth and the beginning of the Northern Ireland Peace Process."

Alsohuman · 27/09/2019 23:38

John Major was my MP. He was outstanding. I felt quite guilty that I could never vote for him.

ChazsBrilliantAttitude · 27/09/2019 23:39

Why now? Powerful self interested people seek to exploit times of stress and chaos for their own purposes. This has become much easier with the move to social media. Demagogues are no longer filtered through the MSM but can self publish on a huge scale.

Additionally wars are now being fought differently
Syria and Afghanistan were proxy superpower wars.
China, Russia and North Korea are fighting cyberwars

We aren’t really at peace - we are just fighting in a more subtle way

Not an actor, but Cummings coulee be played by Gollum.

FoldyRoll · 28/09/2019 00:40

COULD

As PP said, Cummings does not look like a well man. Searching for that photo shows how much he's changed in just a couple of years. It's striking. Whatever the op that he promised his wife he'd have is, I'm guessing it's not for a bunion.

Oh to have a boring prime minister who merely eats his peas and has merely one distasteful affair with his actual peer
