Izzy Posted 3 September 2019 Posted 3 September 2019 Who the fvck is that bloke constantly shouting outside the HOP all day? Sounds like...
UniFox21 Posted 3 September 2019 Posted 3 September 2019 The state of Reece-Mogg is embarrassing. One of the biggest nights in political history rn, and he's falling asleep? He had about as much enthusiasm as I did attending a 9am lecture
Legend_in_blue Posted 3 September 2019 Posted 3 September 2019 Soubry's dig at Rees-Smug had me at him. His expression was priceless.

Sad thing is we'll end up with some bodged coalition with each party pulling in a different direction, leaving us in an even bigger mess

Congratulations remainers! 4 minutes ago, Jon the Hat said: Election will be on the 14th of October, promising leave on the 31st deal or not; Farage will fall in line I think. For an educated man, Jon, you're very naive about politics. No offence intended.

They don't represent people like us, they represent people like Rees-Smug.

But surely the election won't be on the 14th if the opposition don't approve an election at this stage? Is there a quick enough way round that for Lord Snooty and his bumbling buddy?
Donk Posted 3 September 2019 Posted 3 September 2019 I dont care how long the can is kicked. Kick the f**king can for the next 20 years if necessary. As long as it means for absolutely no reason and no fault, people dont become needlessly poorer, exposed to diminishing choice, security and rights. Unless you go back to the people and SPECIFICALLY no deal gets a majority then itll keep being voted down. It doesnt enhance our chances of getting a deal to hang onto this notion we have to walk away. Its quite clear walking away into a worse situation a majority doesnt want is not enhancing our chances of a deal. Going back to the people could resolve the whole issue and yet it always meets resistance
UniFox21 Posted 3 September 2019 Posted 3 September 2019 21 Tory rebels chucked out the party, including a fair few 'big names'. Could signal a big split in the Tory party. But it certainly isn't good for anyone.

Honestly, at this point I'm not confident any of them do it will represent people. Pretty much every party says they'll support students or recent graduates; they get votes and then they start shitting on us.

Buce Posted 3 September 2019 Posted 3 September 2019 I tell you what, I hope that photo of Rees-Smug goes viral - the potential for damage to the Tories is huge. If there's an election, Labour should put it on billboards all over the country.

HybridFox Posted 3 September 2019 Posted 3 September 2019 Complete shambles and a lot of people will soon lose faith in politics if they haven't already. Whichever side people are on, it sets a dangerous precedent if the result of a referendum is not honoured.

Trust me, no party but the Tories would try and tell us we should be grateful to be made to work until we're 75. That alone should make you oppose them.

If we turn round and ignore the referendum, what's stopping governments in the future ignoring others when they don't get their own way? Was stupid in the first place having the damn referendum in its format. Especially when neither side were shown to be fully playing fair.

Lionator Posted 3 September 2019 Posted 3 September 2019 Ken Clarke and Nicholas Soames (true conservatives) fuming on newsnight right now as they're about to be kicked out of the Conservative Party. I may not agree with their political views however they've put the country before their corrupt, sh1tshow of a disaster capitalist political party and for that they must be commended.

And I'm not even a ****ing Brexiteer. Everything about the referendum was ****ing criminal for the gravity of what was being asked. David Cameron has royally ****ed us.

The 'end goal' was so deformed behind all the lies and slogans that no one knows what they were voting for. People focused on a few policies and almost ignored the others due to their main 'issue' being ticked

Whichever side people are on, it sets a dangerous precedent if the result of a referendum is not honoured. But is a deomcratic decision really democratic if what was promised wasn't based on facts of entirely misleading? Bit of a philosophical quandry, that. If I gave the kids in my class a vote - "We can go to the park or go into Loughborough, but Loughborough fair is on", and then when we got to Loughborough we went shoe shopping at Clarks instead, then they'd be pretty pissed off, no matter how many times I yelled "respect the will of the people" at them. 'Cus that's what Brexit is like. Although, not quite as expensive as Clarks.
