Government Wins Brexit Case in Northern Ireland

Ha ha, so does this top/cancel the Scottish case or do we wait for the best of 3 next week at the Supreme Court? When it gets down to interpretation it really does get messy.

I have a vision of MP's, bags backed, turning around and going back home after hearing this. It would be comedy if it was not serious. The lawyers wil be happy though, nice new extension or holiday home on the cards.

Can't you just give it a rest ? Not surprising that you take every opportunity to blather on about your perceived injustices towards Scotland, but it does get a bit heavy
and others may rise to the bait, but all you do is come across as bitter and twisted , and for all i know you may be a perfectly nice , level headed bloke .

Yes I know, my point was any negative news against the government/Brexit seems to get headline space on the main BBC website. Look now, something about Boris lying to the Queen just below the cricket lol. It's mad.

You think the dismissal by a NI judge of the challenge over a No Deal and it's impact on the GFA is more important than a separate judgement finding that the PM lied to the Queen? As I read it it's not that the NI judge said that there wouldn't be an impact - just that it was obviously political and so not in scope of his considerations. So no issue for the government, just disappointment for those raising the challenge on No Deal.

The two judgments seem to be on different matters. One on impact of prorogation on MPs ability to hold the executive to account due to the actions of the government - the other on the potential impact of a No Deal Exit on the GFA. Apples and Oranges.

In many ways it's very easy for Johnson to prove his innocence. Release the communications over prorogation now requested in law.

Don;t see any mention of cricket anywhere on the BBC News Home page

Oh dear, I had better not tell you that when the Supreme Court sit next week to judge the Scottish Law case judgment they will be judging it under Scottish Law.;)

That is as may be but the bridge item was just solely a dig at the English , and it gets a bit repetitive ,on and on and on .You would think we are all the spawn of the devil the way you harp on .
 
President of European Parliament this morning on current #Brexit talks with Johnson gov: “Unfortunately the signals we are getting aren’t indicating that there is any initiative that could reopen the negotiations…We’d like there to be initiatives to discuss but unfortunately ”there aren’t any.” On the backstop: “There can’t be an agreement without a backstop, that is the fundamental position and everything begins from that. If you don’t want to talk about that, that means you don’t want to talk at all, and that there’s nothing to talk about.

So you have never heard of all the lovely motorways and bridges built with EU funds that English (British) taxpayers have contributed towards?

And I can't remember how long (if we were ever told) the 'raiding party' - involving taking cash for work done in Swindon - before heading back to Bonny 'Skirtland' lasted!
 
Why on earth do the Remainers want to prolong this whole ridiculous charade? The bottom line is the UK had a vote and decided to come out of the EU. No if's or but's. That's democracy. We had 2 bluddy years to sort this and couldn't (get a deal). We've extended the whole stupid thing, and STILL cannot get a deal. If we cannot get a deal that suits everyone, and we will not be able to do this, the ONLY thing left is NO DEAL. once we are out the EU will be running to us like the chickens they are. Bullies should be fought against, that's what everyone says. the EU is a bully and we should stand up to them and walk away. Food shortages? Don't make me laugh! Hey Donald mate have you got any food over there? Yes? Smashing! Send us a couple of boats loads. (These boats will be already loaded and ready to go).

Everyone should shut up arguing about it all. It's really getting on most peoples nerves. MP's spouiting the same thing over and over for the last 2 years. Bring the whole thing to an end and COME OUT !!!!!

It's absolutely because of (UK's version of) 'Democracy' that we are in this situation!

Seems rather like a cry for a 2nd Referendum to me!

Yep I can see just now the person who wants to ensure everything is in the favour of the US is of course just going to send us a lot of food as good rates - good rates for who ? Us or the US

You make everything sound so easy - I’m sure they must be kicking themselves they haven’t thought of your ideas 🙄
