A GE will shake things up which is good

Bercow will be gone - that frees up literally months of Parliamentary time as we won't be subjected to his monologues

I'd have preferred WAB to pass before GE but Lib Dem & SNP knew this was last chance to stop Brexit so we are where we are 🤷🏻‍♀️

Steve bray still honking on... Hmm

Hopefully we will see the back of him one day soon...

“I heard lots of stories about people being told to take a pen when they voted but no videos of people rubbing out votes

Does anyone have a link”

I don’t currently have a link from 2016 to hand! I will try and find one tomorrow though... I actually saw it going on live.

DustyDiamond · 29/10/2019 21:16

Only link I could find was the Daily Star Rufus 😂

😂😂

RufusthebewiIderedreindeer · 29/10/2019 21:18

Thank you epic

AutumnCrow · 29/10/2019 21:18

Who was supposed to have been rubbing out the votes?

DustyDiamond · 29/10/2019 21:19

She looks like she's rubbing something out & brushing the rubber bits off afterwards

DustyDiamond · 29/10/2019 21:20

The clip is at the top of the Daily Star article - was in the ref I think

notangelinajolie · 29/10/2019 21:20

According to Swinson younger voters wont be able to vote because they will be paralysed moving home from uni

Yep Wink paralysed from alcohol more like.

Swinson is off with the fairy's. She actually believes she is going to be the next PM Hmm

Students are perfectly capable of getting themselves to polling station or sorting out a postal vote if they want to.

We had all this with the Brexit vote. If a student can't be bothered to sort themselves out then they have only themselves to blame if the vote doesn't go their way.

I saw another young woman doing it, and then using her own pencil to quickly amend! The camera panned away quickly when the cameraman realised what she was doing! Even the older woman next to her was looking at what she was doing and seemed shocked, Sadly that particular clip never made it to the mainstream media, to my recollection anyway. Wish I had recorded it now! Myself and DH were speechless at the time! Confused

HateIsNotGood · 29/10/2019 21:22

Are there any nominations, proposals, candidates for Speaker yet?

The Office determines that neutrality is paramount, Bercow was very good at that, but he knew it was too difficult now to maintain that.

Bercow was a very, very good Speaker.

Epicwaffle · 29/10/2019 21:22

I promise, I am not a tinfoil hat twat. I really did see it!

time4chocolate · 29/10/2019 21:23

Gosh not seen that before, they could at least have been a bit more discreet about itShock

Just watched that clip. I saw a totally different woman doing it, I wish I could remember the counting location.

RufusthebewiIderedreindeer · 29/10/2019 21:28

From the clip ive just seen we have no idea what the lady was rubbing out (appreciate that epic saw a different video)

But im sure people are going to be taking their own pens along anyway

Yes I am very concerned that this parliament has not given a shit about Joe Public. That is why I am so glad Boris has given us the ability to sweep a lot of them out and get in MPs with actual integrity.

time4chocolate · 29/10/2019 21:31

Hate I think Lindsey Hoyle and Harriet Harmen are bookies faves at the moment but Chris Bryant and Dame Eleanor Laing are also in the mix.

I never thought anyone could be more irritating than Nicola sturgeon or Emily Thornberry, and then along came Jo Swinson.

frumpety · 29/10/2019 21:33

Epic how many counting locations do you go to ?

DustyDiamond · 29/10/2019 21:34

Dear God!! Emily Thornberry!!!!

She is truly awful Dirty - proper snob

DustyDiamond · 29/10/2019 21:35

Steve Bray still shouting 🙄

I wish someone would shove that cone thing up his hoop

Bearbehind · 29/10/2019 21:36

given us the ability to sweep a lot of them out and get in MPs with actual integrity.

Good luck with that 🤔

Walkingdeadfangirl · 29/10/2019 21:41

Good luck with that
Yes I agree Bear it might not happen as much as is needed, but people get what they vote for, that's democracy. Hopefully better than the shit show we have in Parliament now.
