It Has to be requested though. A legal requirement. That's the PM"s competency. Given Johnson is willing to prorogue parliament, what makes you think he will ask for an extension?

Rayvin 4964 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Just now, Renton said: It Has to be requested though. A legal requirement. That's the PM"s competency. Given Johnson is willing to prorogue parliament, what makes you think he will ask for an extension? It's a fair point I suppose, I just don't think he has the balls for shutting down Parliament. There'd be a legitimate argument for his assassination if he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, I don't fully understand the mechanism for that if I'm honest. I'm not arse if it is Hunt or Johnson now, as long as it is the end of them and their party. I actually think Hunt is the more delusional of them. Also I agree with Osborne, Johnson may be the one who really wouldnt allow no deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 34464 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 As it becomes apparent that Hunt might be more dangerous than Johnson, informal polling suggests the Tory membership are swinging behind him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they are much, much more important. Particularly for a service based economy. The CU has always been a red herring. Norway operate fine without it. Which is also why Labour's plans really are the worst of all worlds, aspiring to be like Turkey ffs. In regards to your last post, yes, the BBC has upped its game. Probably too late now though.

Renton 17782 Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Somebody made what I thought was an excellent point on R5 this morning. We know that about 60% of tory members are willing to sacrifice the union to deliver Brexit, and thus end Britain as a nation. Yet just a generation ago these same tories were happy to commit the entire British armed forces and sacrifice the lives of service men to liberate what is little more than a rock in the south Atlantic in order to keep it "British". I mean seriously, how can this be reconciled by any sane peeson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 4964 Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Because all they want is to win the argument. I seriously think it's nothing more than the desire to win that's pushing us towards this now. I reckon that even if you announced to the Brexiteers that immigration would increase following Brexit, they'd still want it done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meenzer 14055 Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 That's the best part of it. The difficult bit of the journey is the bit that's in Britain Also he's an MEP for North West England, which doesn't seem to be anywhere near Ipswich where he lives and would require a few train changes to get to. Also he calls himself "Dr" but he actually gave up on being a practising doctor after two years, which suggests - like this - that he's not very good at looking into what a job actually entails before signing up for it. Also he co-signed this letter in June 2016 about how leaving the EU would be terrible for the NHS. Also he's a cunt (sorry @catmag, lovely to have you back ). And yet he's still far from the worst the Brexit Party has to offer. God help us all. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
