I disagree that “Drawing comparisons of contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis” should be always antisemitic because, although it’s a gross parallel to draw (apartheid South Africa would be better now), it might be pertinent at some point in the future.
Agreed. Saw him plus a load of others who used to pop up randomly in the young ones at some London Poly near Elephant & Castle courtesy of a mate who went there and got cheap tix thru the student Union.
It is our view that there is a majority in the House of Commons that does not support this prorogation, and we demand that the Prime Minister reverses this decision immediately or allows MPs to vote on whether there should be one.
We condemn the undemocratic actions of Boris Johnson following his suspension of Parliament until 14 October.
There is no mandate from the public for a damaging no-deal Brexit. The prime minister is shutting down Parliament with the sole aim of stopping MPs from avoiding a no-deal Brexit.
This will be the longest prorogation in recent history, and one that comes at a critical moment in the history of our respective nations and the Brexit process.
Voters are being deprived of the opportunity to have their representatives hold the government to account, make any key decisions, and ensure there is a lawful basis for any action that is taken.
Just to illustrate how things are seen elsewhere, Le Monde has done a similar kind of graphic. That one, though, has the branch from a successful vote of no confidence going straight to the UK leaving with no deal, presumably as they think the EU would not step in to help out with a delay.
I speak only for myself as an American, but I don’t find the global rising tide of fascism a laughing matter, I don’t root for other countries to experience the same angst and I am a wholehearted supporter of everyone standing in opposition to the conservative agenda.
Only a 1/2 mile walk to the hotel, although at that point I’ll already be 4 hours through a 15mg bunch of chocolate, so I may not even be that high then.
More than 50 MPs from the main parties have pledged to occupy an alternative House of Commons if the prime minister suspends parliament in September, saying they are determined to continue to debate Brexit policy over the five-week period.
Cross-party politicians call for an alternative parliament to fight no-deal Brexit.
In a letter to the Guardian coordinated by Best for Britain, backbenchers from the Conservatives, Labour, the SNP, Liberal Democrats, Change UK and Plaid Cymru said they would convene an alternative parliament should they be barred from the chamber.
Signatories include the Labour MP David Lammy, the current and former Lib Dem leaders Jo Swinson and Sir Vince Cable, the Green party MP Caroline Lucas and Conservative MPs Antoinette Sandbach and Guto Bebb.
I’m playing the dumb dumb… And asking them to explain thing to me, then I JAQ like about Ex Pats, trade, transport, the price of holidays going forward etc.
Some have admitted that they just don’t know, others act the the Stable genius.
I tell most that I never voted because I’m in the firing line when at work and can’t do with the trouble that stems from it… Out of work it’s a different story and I destroyed my father’s table of friends that I know he was happy about.
I’ve seen 70 year old having a stand up fight over it but then again those kind would challenge you over a missed round of coffee. From last year.
I also instantly Google facts for them from. GOV websites and some still refute that basically the Fish cushion was indeed a UK implementation. Its surreal.
Some have realised that Scotland will feel the biggest brunt of Brexit and that the Irish troubles will start up again and realise Brexit is just not worth it.
Surprisingly the most Fav comment by brexiters to me is that I will do well from it as now the UK can deport all the “illegals in my trade” which is just the plain ignorance, and all us can just stop moaning about not being able to make a decent wage anymore.
