Detournement Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 To be fair to Lizzie she has been closing and opening Parliament for 65 years. She's never going to say no to this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legislate for a second referendum then pull his clown house down around his ears. You need to read less nonsense in The Times. The opposition can't legislate for a referendum. No one can force the PM to extend A50. Any referendum can't be held for at least 6 months. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 It's merely a ceremonial position that the Queen holds, the Royals have absolutely no power at all, so all those hoping that the Queen will somehow intervene would be as well howling at the moon to be honest...... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteRoseKillie Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Time to stock up on pitchforks and torches, folks.. I can see me spending a weekend or two protesting in London in the near future. This is certainly one way to get people involved in politics, the only issue being I'm not sure those spindly period lampposts on College Green will bear the blond buffons weight if it all goes a bit Mussolini. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie S Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 An unelected cabal of right wing fanatics take over the government, then signals its intention to suspend parliamentary democracy to force through a hugely divisive advisory referendum result, predicated upon lies, dirty money, social media manipulation and greed. You really couldn’t make it up. Dystopian fiction now reads like dewy-eyed optimism; satire is rendered redundant as even the most acerbic and cynical wits can’t keep pace with the ever-metastasising evil of populism: a toxic miasma of ever-shifting lies, deceit and untruths driven by unseen operators. It seems insufficient to merely proclaim that Britain is dead. The zombie carcass, in league with other dark forces throughout the globe, is still capable of inflicting great damage, and not only upon itself. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiGi Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 A PM elected by less than 1% of the electorate is shutting down parliament to force through a demonstrably harmful Brexit by avoiding elected Mps voting on legislation to stop him. That's a coup. In another country dictatorship. Anyway, who cares? Eat your cereal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hearthammer Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 These london-centric posh boys - aided and abetted by farage/robinson and their little englanders - are dragging us into oblivion. The sooner we push to stand alone and make decisions for the benefit of and in the sole interest of the Scottish people the better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately a sizeable number of them will opt for No Deal, rather than Remain, in the event that any kind of a withdrawal agreement cannot be negotiated.

welshbairn Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 It's all kicking off. Wonder if the Queen could ask Johnson to prove he has the confidence of the house before she agrees to prorogue Parliament? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
