    Not quite. They voted for a delay until the end of June IF May’s deal is passed by 20 March. In which case they would need the extra time to get the legislation in place, but we would definitely be going on June 30 (or even before) so no need to take part in the elections.

    BUT if May’s deal is not passed we will need a much longer extension and would then I suppose have to vote for muppets to go to Brussels and Strasbourg.

    I'm getting confused with all these amendments which either cancel each other out, or say the same thing in a different way. I think the only reason they are having so many is to keep them fit by having to move around every so often to different parts of the building - good for the joints and all that.

    For Android (don't know if it's same for iPhone) - Long press on single word in the text you wish to copy - this then gives you sliders which you can use to highlight big chunks of text. Once highlighted, a pop-up box should display, showing several options, including copy. Return to your Not606 page, long press in the new post window and a paste option should be available. Press paste, and all your highlighted text should be put into the window.

    To paste a link to a page, in the menu option of the browser you are using, select share, then scroll to "copy to clipboard". Return to Not606, long press in window and hit paste.

    Bloody hell busy day and missed all the excitement. A lot to catch up on and sorry if I haven't got back... it's not because I didn't want to. :emoticon-0100-smile
    Anyway I have just got in and have the pleasure of watching This Week.

    Okay... any honest soul out there must surely admit that..... Dominic Grieve is the most slimy **** MP there is? Just watching him lie at every opportunity to Portillo and Neil. He can't answer any question properly and has just admitted that he doesn't care that another losers vote would be loaded in favour of remain. ****. makes me sick. I would punch him if i saw him.

    Don't care whether you are high/low/no brow, ac/dc brow or a brow of colour mate. Bilge is bilge wherever it is written and by whichever rag publishes it.

    So when you said they would clean up at the next election, you wish to withdraw or amend that opinion?

    New Zealand mosques: Several dead after shootings in Christchurch

    An active shooter is at large in Christchurch, New Zealand, after an attack on a mosque in the city, police have warned.
    Witnesses told local media there were several casualties. Police warned people to avoid the area and all schools and a hospital are in lockdown.
    Eyewitnesses have reported running for their lives to escape a shooter.
    Unverified footage purportedly taken by the shooter has emerged, suggesting he filmed as he shot victims.
    Mohan Ibrahim, who was in the area of the mosque, told the New Zealand Herald: "At first we thought it was an electric shock but then all these people started running.
    "I still have friends inside.
    "I have been calling my friends but there are many I haven't heard from. I am scared for my friends lives."
    Live coverage of the New Zealand mosque shooting
    The Herald reports that the gunman is believed to be an Australian who has written a manifesto outlining his intentions.
    In it, he espouses far-right ideology and anti-immigrant ideology.
    What happened at the mosque?
    The sequence of events remain unclear and mostly come via eyewitness reports to local media.
    Witnesses at the Al Noor mosque, located in central Christchurch along Dean Avenue, facing Hagley Park, reported seeing people bleeding on the ground outside the building, but this has not been confirmed by police or officials.
    There are reports that a second mosque in the suburb of Linwood has also been evacuated.
    How are the authorities responding?
    A spokeswoman said Canterbury District Health Board (CDHB) has activated its mass casualty plan, according to New Zealand news site Stuff.nz.
    The plan includes clearing emergency room space for casualties. The spokeswoman did not comment on how many patients were expected.

    Police have cleared Cathedral Square, where thousands of children were holding a rally for action on climate change.
    Police Commissioner Mike Bush said: "A serious and evolving situation is occurring in Christchurch with an active shooter.
    "Police are responding with its full capability to manage the situation, but the risk environment remains extremely high.
    "Police recommend that residents across Christchurch remain off the streets and indoors until further notice. Christchurch schools will be locked down until further notice.
    "Police thanks the public for their cooperation and will provide further updates to keep residents informed."
    Who has been caught up in the attack?
    Apart from numerous witness reports of casualties, a reporter following the Bangladesh cricket team, who are currently in New Zealand, tweeted that the team had "escaped from a mosque near Hagley Park where there were active shooters".
    Player Tamim Iqbal tweeted that the "entire team got saved from active shooters".

    Bangladesh Cricket Board spokesman Jalal Yunus said most of the team had gone to mosque by bus and were about to go inside when the incident took place.
    "They are safe. But they are mentally shocked. We have asked the team to stay confined in the hotel," he told the AFP news agency.
