Welcome to The Westminster Arms!

🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷🍷

A non-partisan politics pub thread for political chit chat....!!

Please stick within MN talk guidelines - any posts which you think may have crossed the line, please report rather than getting into scraps on thread 😠

Political punch-ups are soooo last decade - ain't nobody got time for that 🥊❌

Be nice! Be respectful!

S'ok to slag off politicians, but not other posters 🍻

Clearly I need to get my podcast act together then Boswell... where do I find them?

God. This is embarrassing. I generally consider myself pretty up to date with the world. 😂

What Dusty said

As for the rest of your post, I'm not wanting this thread to descend into goadiness & another bunfight so I think it's best left there now

Are you telling me not to post here? I'm sure you weren't but I'd like to be sure.

I would also hope that you don't want the term 'flashers' - which was confirmed previously by one of your group as denoting unwanted posters - to be used here

Also Lindsay Hoyle is really showing up Bercow to have been the worse speaker in living memory.

Do I now watch the Trump Trial or Andrew Neil? Never been so much political choice.

I like Iain Dale's podcasts with Jacqui Smith, informative and funny (and irreverent and occasionally smutty!)

Dustys post and OP cover everything.

@NiceGuyNeddie , I've gone back to lurking now and then (although obviously not with this post). I was going to drop in as soon as it opened but thought better of it. Hope you all keep out of the cold.

That song never fails to cheer me up walking.
Just like the 17million f..k offs

I see Steve bray was attacked I think yesterday. I think he is a pain in the neck but I think physically attacking him is out of order.
Good to know the WA will get royal assent soon. Is it really only 8 more sleeps.

I hope there is some protection brought in for child refugees. Although what it ever had to do with the WA I will never know

“I see Steve bray was attacked I think yesterday. I think he is a pain in the neck but I think physically attacking him is out of order.”

Jesus, the guy is a noisy annoying twat, but that’s awful! No one should have that happen to them, I hope he is ok.

Andrew Neil definitely for me
Can we watch it in the pub. If so please can I have another 🍷
😃😃😃

Neddie, respectfully, if you are concerned that posters are breaking talk guidelines then please do use the report function to alert mnhq

It's not for posters on the thread to determine what is it or is not acceptable posting behaviour

Is it really only 8 more sleeps

But only if you've been very very good!

Just read that the HOL has backed down on all amendments, as they should of course. It's done ready for royal assent

It's not for posters on the thread to determine what is it or is not acceptable posting behaviour

I'm confused - you seem to be telling me what is acceptable posting behaviour while also telling me that that is not acceptable?

I agree Copper, I actually think that tacking on such important amendments, that deserve their own scrutiny, does a huge disservice to those that the amendments are purporting to want to help.

Just my opinion of course...

"The European Withdrawal Bill has passed the House of Lords and its final parliamentary hurdle. It is now heading for royal assent and the statute book."

Evening all.

9 more days!

Hi folks,

We're receiving very many reports about this thread.

We don't want to take it down, and don't believe we should have to.
A few posters are intent on goading each other, and it's not really fair on the rest of the posters here.

Please ignore attempts of derailment and report concerns to us. We're always happy to take a look. Not engaging preserves the thread, and saves it from potential deletion.

Good news Walking! Getting there.

I hope the dubs amendment finds it’s own proper bill, where it can be properly debated, not just tacked on something else.

Thank you so much Lily. 💐

I'm confused - you seem to be telling me what is acceptable posting behaviour while also telling me that that is not acceptable?

Not at all 🍷

If you read the full post, I explicitly said it was up to MNHQ what is/isn't acceptable

If you feel anyone has stepped over the line, then please report to MNHQ

Exactly.

Just ignore. It’s the only way.

Oh dear. What the heck was wrong with my deleted post, I have been so careful. MN just doesn't like me. I dont want this thread to be deleted so I probably better leave for a while. Sorry guys for whatever I said that broke the rules. Possibly my comment about period poverty. idk

Not engaging preserves the thread, and saves it from potential deletion.

Thank you Lily

I shall stop engaging now 💐
