Media manipulation is a thing.

Of course it is. But doubt it our brexit loving media magnates and politicians value Andrew's privacy more than brexit. The clock is ticking, the blond clown needs time to **** it up

True.

I am trying really hard to see what benefits leaving with no deal with bring.......and short term I see none.......long term, I see even less.

I agree with all this.

This act by Johnson is really worrying.
Dictatorship isn't a good quality in anyone.

However in a Prime Minister, really dangerous.

He may be heading determinedly for a no deal brexit.

He could however end up being the last Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.
So much for representing a Unionist Party then.

Listening to the bigoted, extremist DUP too, has been really nauseating.

What Boris Johnson is doing is constitutional, within the rules and conventions of our democracy.

Anybody who tells you he's acting like a dictator is lying to you, so you're really worried over nothing. You don't need to be worried.

Joey, anybody who tells you he's not acting like a dictator is lying to you. Don't listen.

A dictator would not ask for permission.

Alf 28-08-2019 10:24 PM

And he'd have the Queens army on him in a flash.

Beso 28-08-2019 10:24 PM

Surely the UK governments of the past set in rules that a dictator could never take power...this is a rule or whatever that the pm can use.

Oh i so hope labour made that original rule.

Marsh. 28-08-2019 10:25 PM

Oh, well, if he asked the rich old lady who got her position through being conceived then THAT'S alright then. :idc:

He's used his power to shut down and limit opposition to his aims of leaving with no deal.
Something he originally advocated 3 years ago was impossible.

Plus only a few weeks ago stated it was a million to one chance.

He has used power trusted to him, to close down opposing opportunities to stop something that he stated couldn't happen.

Sounds pretty close to dictatorship to me.
Unacceptable, inappropriate and simply wrong to have acted this extreme way.

He could have done a Queen's speech post October 31st.
There's only one reason he's done this now.
Not in the interests of the UK, not in the interests of Parliament, not even, (if any of them develop finally some courage to put their votes where their mouths are), in the interests of his Party.

He's done it to only satisfy the more extreme elements of his Party and others who always wanted the most uncertain and dangerous extreme brexit outcome.

No matter the consequences.
