Brexit Arms Festive Special. Will the Grinch steal christmas? Could it be ‘Christmas with the Kranks?’ Or will we end up with a ‘Blue’ Christmas after all?...🤷🏻‍♀️🎄

[EpicShitDippedBatBiscuit]

First off, comrade Hilda has been busy in the propaganda dept! Praise be to Hilda! The dear leader will appreciate and reward your efforts with a cushy job in the newly opened Ministry of Bullshit. ✊🥀

Specials board.

⭐️ Snacks.

•Salty Bar nuts
(we always have too many)

•Marrow crisps,
I know you all hate them, but we had a glut and needed to do something with them. 🤷🏻‍♀️😬

⭐️ Mains.

A festive choice of...

•’Properly Stuffed’ “Christmas voting” Turkey.

•Festive Glazed Gammons.

•Goose that laid the Gilded socialist egg.

•’Whigs’ in blankets.

•Sauce for the Goose and Sauce for the Gander

•Brussels’ sprouts.
Divisive, yet still popular in some quarters...

•Neeps and tatties.
Grown in Corbyn’s Communist plot and kindly gifted back to us by the SNP.

⭐️Festive Drinks.

•Rebecca’s long Baileys.
Seems nice enough, but can be vicious if you have too much.

•Corbyn’s Victory Gin.
State sanctioned by big brother.

•Bag in, artisan Earl Grey Cocktail.
A Boris election special.

•Red flag Rum.
for the singing socialists among us.

•Egg nog.
Gifted by Trump. Sticks in your throat a bit, but it’s polite to drink it and pretend to half enjoy it anyway.

•The #ClassicDmitri.
Shaken and stirred. A Russian Vodka based Cocktail, shrouded in mystery and intrigue. No one really knows how it came to exist, but all we know is, that it might have happened. Somewhere. And now it’s on the menu. Enjoy!

⭐️Desserts.

•Imported Panettone.
Get it fast, I’m reliably informed we will never ever have it again post Brexit.

•Traditional Christmas pudding.
have a good look for that old fashioned sixpence inside, we might need it when all the money runs out.

•Damson jam steamed pudding.
I’m told by the suppliers, that It’s like the infamous Mumsnet chicken, we can get eleventy billion servings from it and still have more for the freezer.

As always, welcome to all who pass through this place, but, as ever please observe the sign above the bar. If you can’t read it. It says...

DON’T BE A TWAT.

Ok, so say Jeremy Corbyn is elected and attempts to effectively disband the army by proroguing Parliament prior to the renewal of the legislation on the Army, you don’t want any individual to have the right to apply to the Courts to stop him doing so?

I do not want that. I want the convention that previously served this country so well for such a long time: an independent judiciary that does not involve itself in political decisions. That is what the manifesto says.

Yep 👍

Deflection and an entirely different argument.

How about answering my question.

What do you want?

I'd rather think that there'd be a lot more resistance to that turn of events rather than it all falling to an individual going to court to stop him 🤷🏻‍♀️

There was zero political effort to stop prorogation earlier this year. They ran straight to the courts.

The courts have no place in politics

“Ok, so say Jeremy Corbyn is elected and attempts to effectively disband the army by proroguing Parliament prior to the renewal of the legislation on the Army, you don’t want any individual to have the right to apply to the Courts to stop him doing so?”

No, I don’t want ‘individuals’ doing anything of the sort. I want to retain our existing democratic processes that should already prevent that from happening. HOL for example.

Prime ministers can still prorogue anyway it’s a constitutional right and always was. Besides, I’m fairly sure, if Corbs wanted to disband the army and overthrow democracy, he is unlikely to give a shit what the supreme court have to say on the matter anyway.

Smoke? Meet mirrors.

It isn’t deflection at all, the SC did not get involved in politics with the ruling on prorogation, they simply ensured that Parliament was able to scrutinise the Executive.

On a tangent, as we are on p36, Who wants to be the next landlady then? 😬😂

Tempting huh? 😉

“It isn’t deflection at all, the SC did not get involved in politics with the ruling on prorogation, they simply ensured that Parliament was able to scrutinise the Executive.”

By meddling with the right parliament has historically granted to the executive.

How else could they have stopped the prorogation Dusty?

“How else could they have stopped the prorogation Dusty?”

Why should they have? They had 3 fucking years to chew the fat on this, they were just pissed that democracy didn’t play their way.

^"What is revolutionary about the Supreme Court's decision is that it makes the courts the ultimate arbiter of what political decisions are good enough".
^
Lord Sumption's words.

"Revolutionary" means "involving or causing a completely new change". The Supreme Court took it upon itself to decide whether the PM's decision to advise the Queen as he did was "good enough". That, chuck, is a political decision.

And you still haven't answered the question.

What do you want?

And while you're mulling it over, where exactly is your evidence that the manifesto wants to "abolish our independent Judiciary,"?

You're no lawyer are you Singing Lily?

And your point is???

How else could they have stopped the prorogation Dusty?

😂😂😂😂😂

Did you sleep through the last year Aurora?!

They managed to force through a new law in a couple of days ffs 😂

You're no lawyer are you Singing Lily?

Is this leading somewhere?!

Did that law stop the prorogation?

And perhaps the passing trade could just remind me...

It isn’t deflection at all, the SC did not get involved in politics with the ruling on prorogation, they simply ensured that Parliament was able to scrutinise the Executive.

When they all trooped back into the HoC as soon as the prorogation was made void, what weighty matters of state did they use the time to debate and discuss?

Anyone?

Maybe stick to memes, emojis and exclamation marks rather than delivering legal opinions.

who lit the question cannon?

💥 💥 💥

“Is this Ben Elton?”

“Maybe stick to memes, emojis and exclamation marks rather than delivering legal opinions.”

Hahaha. Emojis....

Did that law stop the prorogation?

Was it supposed to?

Bufo, chuck, did you actually read my posts?

The only legal opinion I posted here was Lord Sumption's.

Maybe stick to memes, emojis and exclamation marks rather than delivering legal opinions.

Maybe stick to policing your own behaviour & actions

It's a free country cupcake!
