Well, if you can't win at the Ballot Box, you need to try circumvent it by other means....
If you want "classy," Police meant to be investigating the effigies hanging from bridge in Manchester. Folk following the specific guidance of Jon McDonnell. Maybe he should be in the dock?
Mind you, his boss acted rather strangely after the Tory Conference in 1984. I guess that's the sort of folk we are dealing with

Totally agree.Jings there is no doubt that you are the top man of whataboutry
Brexiteers are circumventing what was voted on in 2016 too, they were offered a deal to leave the EU and rejected it for a harder Brexit that was not on the cards in 2016. It simply asked Leave or Remain, nothing more. May's deal had us as no longer a member state of EU, so it was leaving. Johnson and Rees-Mogg both voted for May's deal 3rd time round too. They've changed their minds clearly now BJ has wormed his way into power (of sorts), perhaps lots of other people have changed their minds too. Let's find out!
Actually, I think the reason was always fairly plain, but BJ's personality is such that he c/wouldn't admit that the blunder of his bluster about 'humbug' comment was poorly 'timed'. It seems, to me, likely that making that (humbug) comment had been pre-planned and he was waiting for an 'appropriate' time to use it as a reply. He just didn't get the 'appropriate' timing right!You mean he's had time to think up an excuse 🤣
Besides he has a bit more than that to worry about now.
Are you saying that any deal, even a bad deal should be accepted? I have no problem with any deal being knocked back if its deemed to be a bad deal. And don't forget, the vast majority of MP's are Remainers, and its pretty obvious from the numbers that voted against May's deal that it was Remainers, not Brexiteers that kicked it back.
I'm all for the people deciding. Let there be a GE, and lets see where the country stands. Didn't that happen in June '16?
No easy answers, guess that's why we are where we are. Water under bridge but May blew her working majority in Commons with a gamble GE that backfired on her. Govt problems really started there. Why did she lose that majority - lots of conjecture about it which we could all argue about, I think the young vote finally mobilised and that was largely anti Brexit.
Unconvinced a GE will solve this, a sample poll lead in overall voting intention doesn't extrapolate into Commons seats numbers with FPTP. 2017 proved that.
For god sake don’t you start wearing a tin foil hat.Dear me, lady comes forward after 20 years - not political - pull the other one.

doesn't mean he didn't do it though does it?Bollocked for not wearing my bone dome at times so hats aren't my thing However one has to wonder why it's taken twenty years, her new boyfriends a bit of a momentum boy and well known Jurno allegedly.

Still inappropriate behaviour. It not an allegation made on the BBC either.Nope and providing there was no sexual assault or breaking of any law why is it news. I thought the days of people claiming these things had come to an end by the so called respected media without proof. These sort of allegations have cost us via the BBC a lot of money.

you are calling into question her motives and if it even happened and asking why its news?Not sure I said that but if that's your take and floats your boat crack on.
