You might describe Boris as a 'clown' or use it as you feel it makes your opinion more valid,but it doesn't , as most of us know he is NOT a clown,he is a clever guy,he may come across as a 'clown' but that in itself is a clever move,just because the opposition keep blocking Brexit,does not make the other party stupid or 'clowns' but saying that I'de rather be called a 'clown' than a coward which is what Corbyn seems to be :wavey:

Dont lie Kazanne. The brexit ultras blocked brexit time and time again by not supporting May's deal.

Did you know johnson was sacked twice for lying? And he is lying again about non existent negotiations. He is a lying clown

He is a lying clownMay's deal wasn't Brexit, it kept us tied to the EU, that's why it was rejected. May was a remainer before the referendum, she was a remainer during her Premiership and she's a remainer now.

Farage says he's willing to come together to make a pact with Johnson to target seats, if Johnson wants to go for a clean break Brexit. Farage says he has 630 candidates ready to go.


Yes he has been saying that for some time.
But so far PM Johnson has not spoken to Farage.
So unless he does

more like false promises, false hopes given by the upper class brexiteer elite


since what do they have to gain with a deal, nothing


and they won't struggle at all after a no deal brexit, even more so these upper class will even get any richer



middle class and poor in britain however they will struggle a lot after a no deal

What is actually being missed is.
We had a referendum in 2016 which produced a narrow 3.8% majority of those who voted.
Fine.
Yes the vote was to leave.

Then there was, after that referendum, a year later a full general election.
Only 2 years after the last one.

No candidate in that election on a Party manifesto, who won a seat, fought on a NO DEAL brexit.

The voters sent all these MPs to Parliament.
This was their choice 2 years after the previous election and one year after the referendum.

Now, it's wrong to revisit the referendum result again.
However it's fine to hold another election
A third in 4 years.

It is dead right to make sure NO DEAL is out the way before an election.
Or a pause on its possibility until after any election.

The failure of this government to secure this as a Parliamentary brexit rather than just a government one.
Is why we are in this mess.

Also all votes on brexit in Parliament, should have been for all Parties, free votes at the very least.

Johnson is really the worst possible PM the UK could have at this time.
His word to individuals, Country and even Parliament, near meaningless and untrustworthy.

If Labour in government were acting like this, expelling MPs from their Party, after multi decades of service.
Also riding recklessly over votes in Parliamentary votes.
They would be derided and rightly condemned universally for it.
Me one of the first doing so too.

This is the Parliament the voters elected only a year after the referendum.
This is the Parliament the voters elected to deliver brexit.

If a new election is again now necessary, the 3rd in only 4 years.
Then it must not in my view anyway, be held until at least November once crashing out with no deal on 31st October is removed as a likelihood.

This PM can easily get domestic agendas done.
Restore the MPs he's expelled.
They still support his domestic agenda.
He still has the DUP on board too.

No need for a general election at all until brexit is ready to move to the next phase.
Then have an election for voters to decide which Party is best to deal in that next phase.

Or simply, put NO DEAL and REMAIN choices to the voters in another referendum.

This mess is of this government's and this PM and some of his present Cabinet's own making since THEY stabbed in the back, their last leader's efforts.
Voting down her deal to follow their own more extreme agenda re brexit.

Let's hear the facts then, the stage is all yours.

You've shown time and again that you're impervious to facts, so there's no point.

I'll be honest here, I think no deal brexit will be the only way we can move forward as a country. Brexit is a doomsday cult, and you need to see it for yourselves.

None of this was mentioned in the leave campaign, and look how easily you've convinced yourselves that you wanted no deal all along, despite the warnings of most of the leave campaign.

I could point out that BJ wrote 2 columns on brexit. 1) why I voted for brexit 2) why I voted against brexit. He waited to see what happened before pretending he was on the right side. He's a chancer using you guys for personal ambition, and you can't see it.

It's not true Kaz. They'll give them an election as soon as no deal on 31/10 is off the table. You can't expect politicians to vote to make their constituents poorer, and if a candidate in your area was promising that in the lead to an election, there's no way you'd vote for them.

They already have..
A deal the Lady you so seemed to admire agreed with them
That was voted down by this PM you now so admire and many of his Cabinet too.

Oppositions aren't there to help governments they have no input in.

Read history..
The NHS the Cons voted against every move to bring thst in.

The Cons voted against every step of a minimum wage.

She had a deal from the EU.
It's her own extreme MPs, now the Cabinet who defeated her and that deal, no one else.

It's still there, Rory Stewart said it should be brought back for a vote.
Stephen Kinnock agrees.

Why doesn't your new hero Johnson just try that one more time.
May wanted to bring it back after talks with Labour.
However she was FORCED to resign.

He could probably get that deal passed I think.

That's some real facts for you.

We are in agreement with that. That's why I said you death cultists need to see what it is before we can move forward as a country.

I can't blame the politicians trying to protect people from the pain of a no deal because it's the right thing to do, but ultimately I believe BJ will win the election and then the petty little entitled gimp that he is will not only force pain on the public, but he'll want revenge too, and nobody will win in this case.

Everyone has tried for years to implement your vote though, that's what you don't see. We were told how easy it would be to get a deal, that we'd hold all the cards and would be able to bend the eu to our will, and Merkel would come to us begging for a deal.

I'm sorry Alf, but the fact you were promised a unicorn that is impossible to deliver because you were lied to is not any fault of 1 single remain voter, or any single labour politician.

So now, instead of your anger being directed at those who promised you the world, you're blaming everyone else but them, to the point you are willing to screw over your friends and neighbours to get the victory you believe you're owed.

When you know the consequences will lead to pain, shortages, suffering, and death, then yes, it's e deathcult.

The government are stockpiling body bags for no deal brexit. Why would any sane person not be instantly appalled by that?

I'll ask you one question Kazanne.

Do YOU really believe all the people who voted leave, that 17.4 million.
Forget the over 16 million who voted remain if you must.
However do YOU believe all who voted leave wanted NO DEAL.
If you do, fine that explains your stance.

If you don't however believe they all wanted no deal.
Then in fairness to them too that didn't vote for no deal, how is it wrong for politicians to ensure no deal is off the table totally.

Otherwise no deal, is then surely going against the bigger majority of all who voted in that referendum.
If no deal is pursued by Johnson and co.

Reported by the guy who wrote parts of the yellowhammer report for Boris Johnson. It was written by the people that are pushing a no-deal, not by remainer scaremongers.

If potential power, fuel, and medicine shortages don't scare you as a mother, then neither should body bags, I guess.

We all have the right to choose what things we believe or what we at least believe to be important, but I can't grasp why any parent would be willing to take that risk. I'm not criticising or judging you, i'm just trying to understand.

Nor it is being helpful telling people all is going to be fine after a no deal brexit too.
Without knowing what may well be the case.

A lot of billions are being spent on leaving with no deal to offset problems that will happen.
The government must know all won't be fine spending and adding more billions to the likely problems.

Would you put your own family in a place, you had no idea what it was going to be like, not knowing fully of all dangers even just possible.
Because I wouldn't, never.

I do not believe all who voted leave wanted no deal.
It was never policy of any Party elected in 2017.


I know loads of people who voted leave and still would but not wanting to,and wouldn't vote for a no deal scenario.

Anyway, you seem to think leave regardless of any consequences is necessary, even not knowing how many of those 17+ million who voted leave actually wanting no deal.
I could never risk unforeseen consequences or support anyone advocating them.

Wouldn't any government that gets elected on October 15th be able to overturn the legislation to extend the exit date?

Unless the opposition is thinking that Boris Johnson is going to say Oct 15th to get the vote for the election, then change the date to after Oct 31st, which would be extraordinary.

I wouldn't put it past Boris though, he's lost all his votes so far and by proroguing the government, he's shown that he's willing to play dirty.

I also don't think there would be enough time for a new government form and try to prevent a no deal brexit, This whole election play on Boris' part seems like a distraction, one that the other parties should only indulge him in if he agrees to a delay on the exit date.

The difference is though Kazanne is that Parliament doesn't have to listen to an advisory polling, especially with the fact that it was a very slim majority, and there actually was no option on there for a No Deal Brexit which I'm assuming that most of this country doesn't even want.

It's so true, anyone that wants to potentially put this country in financial danger is more of a traitor to this country than people not wanting to risk a no deal Brexit imo.

If people really truly care about this country then they should put their own personal issues aside and look at what the UK could be like in 20 to 30 years time if no deal Brexit happens? People can think that it's scaremongering all they like, but I'm taking experienced and intelligent people to do with finances word for what's gonna happen to this country if Brexit happens in general, than I am politicians who are trying to play with peoples emotions about the EU.

Hi Vanessa.
I have never liked Theresa May however I did say and repeatedly on here, MPs should have voted her agreement with the EU through.

I still think, the very slightly amended agreement after her talks with Labour.
Shelved with her being forced to resign.
Is as Rory Stewart said, the deal still in a locker.
That is a valid deal which should be put to Parliament again.

Of course who won't do that.
The current PM of course.
Because he and the vast majority of his extreme Cabinet he appointed, don't want a deal, any deal.
They want to bully their way to get only 'no deal' as brexit.

Anyway they can, cheating and lying too.

The negotiations are in paralysis.

He's doing nothing.
Just lying to the Country and Parlianent.

Every news source and political programme has confirmed he's done nothing.
He doesn't intend to.
He wants no deal.
It's all he's aiming for with his brexit hard-line Cabinet.

Nothing just about, that comes out his mouth can be trusted or believed.
The EU have had nothing new whatsoever from him.

Parliament has asked him to present any ideas or proposals of any deal he is seeking.
He's presented nothing to Parliament either, because he has nothing to present.
Because he has no intention of seeking a deal.

To let the clock run down.

“The legitimate concerns of those who have been banished from the party … seem to be worth nothing – unless they become cyphers, parroting the views of a prime minister influenced by a political anarchist, who cares not a fig for the future of the party I have served,” Major is scheduled to say.

“We have seen over-mighty advisers before. It is a familiar script. It always ends badly. I offer the prime minister some friendly advice: get rid of these advisers before they poison the political atmosphere beyond repair. And do it quickly.”

“The English nationalists affect not to care about separation. They care more about leaving Europe. But the collapse of unionism in England, and ambition for independence in Scotland, could lead to a calamitous outcome for us both,” he will say.

I can't speak for all young new voters obviously but all the experts claim the vast majority of them are more forward looking to the World and more pro EU.

However just in my family, of the 20+ in number, just in my family who have reached voting age..

Only 2 would either not vote in a referendum or if they did vote to leave.
All the rest are pro remain.

However none will vote Conservative.
Most would vote Lib Dem the rest Labour.
Mine overall was a family of Conservative orientated set of voters up to 2012 too.

So just in my family, the change is strong.

Of course I'm sure others may have examples the other way.

It's why I think a referendum, not an election is best now, although I've changed my mind on a new referendum in the last ,6 months.
I'd only have 2 choices again.
This time leave with no deal, or remain.

It's why I think a referendum, not an election is best now, although I've changed my mind on a new referendum in the last ,6 months.
I'd only have 2 choices again.
This time leave with no deal, or remain.

Seems simple enough to me and breaks the deadlock with the answer.

If those who voted leave in 2016, REALLY were happy with a no deal.
Then they'd vote leave again.
I don't see the problem then.

Young factory workers wanting brexit are analogous to turkeys voting for christmas.

They will do anything to avoid another referendum. JRM was asked about a 2nd referendum the other day and he said "we can't do that because the result would be overturned". They know they'd struggle to pull the wool over a majority of eyes for a 2nd time, and his ability to avoid paying tax is far more important than young factory workers being employed in 5 years time.

They would try to negotiate as good a deal as possible as a "safety net", but the best trade deal possible, is what we already have as full members of the EU. We already have the best possible deal. So we should try to keep it - but have a half decent backup plan if that's not possible.

Alf
06-09-2019, 04:36 PM
I can't speak for all young new voters obviously but all the experts claim the vast majority of them are more forward looking to the World and more pro EU.

However just in my family, of the 20+ in number, just in my family who have reached voting age..

Only 2 would either not vote in a referendum or if they did vote to leave.
All the rest are pro remain.

However none will vote Conservative.
Most would vote Lib Dem the rest Labour.
Mine overall was a family of Conservative orientated set of voters up to 2012 too.

So just in my family, the change is strong.

Of course I'm sure others may have examples the other way.
I am just speaking of the knowledge I have from my own family.

I think it was made clear however that younger voters strongly voted remain.
With more older voters voting leave.
That seems the general post referendum analysis.All the experts claimed Remain was going to win the Referendum, so you can't go by experts.

Media and most political figures considered Johnson a bad choice to be considered as a PM.

Amber Rudd, said he shouldn't be trusted to drive anyone home after a party.
Now she serves in his Cabinet.

Gove said in 2016 he was the wrong person to be PM, he serves in his Cabinet.
Hyocrites both.

Then his disastrous gaffe ridden offensive time as Foreign secretary.

Yet, the Con party, which is now in my view the most exteme of all of them, other than the vile Brexit one.
The members of the Con party vote him to be PM.
With his even worse uncompromising and deranged obsessive no deal aim for brexit.

He'd even advocate breaking a legitimate law.
What a dangerous power mad man to have as PM.

Then think of the Con members, of which two thirds think, a no deal brexit is worth breaking up the UK on.

So his pathetic, determined use of phrases like dead in a ditch, shouldn't surprise anyone.
However as you say Ammi, at this time, in N Ireland, after all the work and effort from both Major, Blair the EU, the USA and the Republic of Ireland.with the political parties of Ireland collectively.

He would drive a divisive no deal brexit over their wishes.
This man is dangerous, his inappropriate use of terms like dead in a ditch and his racist toned comments too.
Along with his total deceit and inability to admit he could even just be wrong, never mind accept he can be.

Should have had him barred from any power.
Yet there are voters who will support and defend him.
To keep him there.
Just to get brexit done, supporting his dangerous no deal obsession, regardless of the consequences.
For the people but also for the United Kingdom staying safe and intact too.

Desperately worrying.
Talk about burying heads in the sand.
It's dangerous and beyond belief any decent voter could in any way trust Johnson, never mind vote for him.

It is a blame game though, the WA had a protection for Ireland at the insistance of the EU.
The ERG don't want that protection, they want it removing therfore they voTed against the WA. The backstop is the only reason Boris goes to Brussels, he asks if they will remove the Backstop ..they say no and he comes home. No progress is made.

The DUP thought the WA was hanging Northern Ireland out to dry so it's not a simple issue

I'm starting to think it will come back to the Commons anyway as Boris' last hope to avoid requesting an extension. Either that or he calls a vote of no confidence in himself


Yes one of his many plans.

But he said yesterday
on the Long Scottish TV Interview
he will bypass the new Labour Extension
by going to Brussels himself
to get a new deal and still leave on
the 31st.



I hope he takes Cummings with him.

Actually Labour voted against the withdrawal agreement because they want a, or the, customs union and still closer links to the single market.

That has always been their position and still is.

If the withdrawal agreement, had that in it, there'd be no need for the backstop.

Just to put the record straight on that.

When May finally got round to including Labour in talks near the end of her premiership.
Had she included a customs union plan in the agreement, she'd have got at least 190 likely Labour votes supporting it.
No general election at all.

She wasn't though allowed to bring back the results of those talks as her Party kicked her out before she could.

Then again those ERG grouping would have tried to vote it down, with any customs arrangement proposal in it.

Well said Joey.
The slim ref majority should only result in a soft brexit.
Had May been a stateswoman she would have formed a coalition with labour to sort brexit and a soft brexit would have sailed through the parliament.
As it happened she wasted 3 years on tory brexit which was voted down by some of her own MPs

I've always said and felt brexit should have been an all party negotiated and planned process.
Thereby ensuring success.

With all voting on brexit being free votes in Parliament.

Mrs May and the Cons denied all that, which brings us to the mess in existence now on it.

Tory grandee Sir Nicholas Soames has launched a searing attack on Boris Johnson’s leadership and Jacob Rees-Mogg, whom he called a “fraud”, adding the Conservative party is lurching towards a divisive, potentially catastrophic form of “hard-right” conservatism.

In an interview with the Times, Soames – who is the grandson of Sir Winston Churchill – said the Conservatives were starting to resemble a “Brexit sect”, after he had the whip removed for rebelling against the Johnson government along with 20 other MPs.

“I am worried about the Tory party because give or take the odd spasm we have always been seen as pragmatic, sensible, good at our job, sane, reasonable and having the interests of the whole country,” he said. “Now it is beginning to look like a Brexit sect.”

Soames rejected comparisons between his grandfather and Johnson, saying the prime minister has never been regarded as “a diplomat or statesman” and his life experience amounts to “telling a lot of porkies about the European Union in Brussels and then becoming prime minister”.

He singled out Jacob Rees-Mogg, calling his recent actions in the Commons “repulsive” and beneath the leader of the house. Rees-Mogg was criticised by Caroline Lucas for lounging on the benches of the Commons during a debate. “The leader of the house has been spread across three seats, lying out as if that was something very boring for him to listen to tonight,” she said.

Soames called Rees-Mogg an “absolute fraud” who is “a living example of what a moderately cut double-breasted suit and a decent tie can do with an ultra-posh voice”.

He also spoke about his concerns for the future of his party, saying that he feared a schism, with many liberal Conservatives turning their backs on the “very hard-right Tory” version of the party that is taking shape under Johnson.

The former defence minister predicted that further Tory MPs would follow the lead of Jo Johnson, who quit this past week – citing conflict between family loyalty and the public interest – if they were forced to sign up to campaigning for a no-deal Brexit during any general election push.

He also expected hardcore no-deal Brexiters to turn on Johnson if he attempted to push through an agreement with the EU, by tweaking the withdrawal agreement. “It is a tragedy that we are going to be potentially sunk on the altar of something so fundamentally un-Tory,” he said.

The third time the Withdrawal agreement was voted on in parliament, the political declaration was removed, leaving the two-year transition.

That means that Labour could still have got a Customs Union and single market ties at a later date. They should have at least voted for the Withdrawal agreement on the third meaningful vote.

Why.
They'd had no input to talks at that time.

The backdrop remained which was the contentious issue with the DUP.

You say Labour could have.
That's not would have.
An agreed customs arrangement in place at that time would have pulled more Labour votes over.
Not a possible customs arrangement.

If May had dropped her red lines of no customs union arrangement, total severance from having some close access of the single market.
She'd have won Labour votes.

Still alienating her own ERG group, who were voting against anything.

With her own Party and the votes of the DUP, she did have an overall majority at the time.

It isn't down to the opposition to help a government that thus far then, had not seriously consulted it.

I don't expect anything, it's just a fact that both leavers and remainers voted for and against the deal, so it's really not just remainers at fault.

It's madness that fault is even used, everyone knows there is no deal out there as good as we already have, so politicians trying to protect their constituents aren't really at fault for anything, and history will view everyone who voted for and tried to force this bs through, very badly.

The promises were made by leave; the easiest deal in the history of the world, everyone will be begging us for a deal, we'll be able to pick and choose what we want etc. All bull, all completely ignored by leavers that live in a fantasy world of WW2 iconography.

Or because they thought the deal was crap. Didn't she basically go back each time with the same ****ing 'deal' and expect a different result? Pretty much the definition of insanity that one..can't really say they should have got behind a deal they disagreed with just so some idiot did not come along thinking nodeal was a brilliant plan..

Sick of hearing it all now though realy. Its just a huge mess, and should never ever have happened the way it did. No vote should ever have happened until there were plans, proper plans, for either result. The way it happened is just embarassing, tbh. As is the way it has been 'handled' since.

Lord MacDonald, the former director of public prosecutions, said if Johnson refused to request an extension he could be found in contempt of court.

“A refusal in the face of that would amount to contempt of court, which could find that person in prison,” MacDonald told Sky News. “He won’t get any co-operation, apart from the fanatics around him … the attorney general won’t sit there quietly while this happens.”

The Scottish Conservative MSP Adam Tomkins, a former law professor, said Johnson should resign rather than break the law by forcing through a no-deal Brexit.

In a series of tweets, Tomkins said Johnson had only one option if he refused to ask for an extension: resign. “Irrespective of what we think about Brexit, or the PM, surely we can all agree on one fundamental principle: the government is bound to obey the law,” he said.
