I want to take all the tory think tanks and some of the blairite ones and stick them in the middle of Siberia and politely ask Putin to test one of his new bombs there. Brown can't have been that brilliant. He was a right winger in a country that needed prominent left wingers. Now look what we've got? A moral void on the left of politics. Right man wrong time maybe? Or right man wrong party? Maybe he'd have felt more at home in the Liberal Democrats.
I'm up for that. Could be a while yet though, I work Saturdays starting 5.30. Bit of a stretch to get out of a match, round the ring road and up to Esholt in 35 minutes!
If you don't have transport, I can give you a lift (as long as you know the way!). We could even leave 5 mins early if need be.
What planet did you say you come from ? Maybe live on Earth a bit longer before you start spouting crap.
I couldn't give a **** either way but from what I've read on this thread there's only one side resorting to insults and it's not the brexiters
Here's an little fact some might find interesting. I've got quite a lot of Muslim freinds and the majority of them voted brexit. A lot of skilled workers from Pakistan have had visas turned down over the last few years due to high immigration from Eu countries. However, that won't be the case going forward. There will actually be an increase of people coming into the country from the east now we control the borders. Now I'm not at all suggesting people will have a problem with that, but I find it strange it was never mentioned before.
Why do people think that the people who voted to leave the EU voted for the tories or Ukip? Get to **** ,
Oh dear. Not all so clear it after all. The High Court in London has ruled that parliament, not the government, must approve the start of Britain's withdrawal from the European Union, in a landmark decision that could delay Brexit. The verdict by three senior judges was closely watched around Europe and by the financial markets as it could derail British Prime Minister Theresa May's plans and affect her negotiating strategy. Following the June referendum vote for Britain to leave the European Union, Ms May had promised to start formal exit talks by the end of March. She claimed she had the right to use "historic prerogative powers" - a type of executive privilege - to trigger notification of Article 50 of the EU's Lisbon Treaty, which would spark two years of negotiations on Britain's departure from the bloc. The government was to allow parliament to scrutinise the process and a vote on the final deal was likely. "The court does not accept the argument put forward by the government," the judges said in a statement read out to the court. "For the reasons set out in the judgment, we decide that the government does not have power ... to give notice pursuant to Article 50 for the UK to withdraw from the European Union." Those behind the legal challenge - including an investment fund manager, a hairdresser and an expatriate living in France - had argued that Article 50 could not be triggered without a decision by parliament. They claimed leaving the EU without such a move would remove statutory rights enshrined under the European Communities Act 1972, which made EU law part of UK law. Ms May had accused those supporting the challenge of trying to frustrate the Brexit process, saying: "They're trying to kill it by delaying it." The court granted the British government permission to appeal against the ruling. A government lawyer said the Supreme Court had set aside 5-8 December to hear the matter. British trade minister Lian Fox said "the government is disappointed by the court's judgment". "The country voted to leave the European Union in a referendum approved by acts of parliament. "The government is determined to respect the result of the referendum," Mr Fox told parliament. He added: "This judgment raises important and complex matter of law and it is right that we consider it carefully before deciding how to proceed." Last week, Northern Ireland's High Court rejected a legal challenge to Brexit, the first judicial ruling on the issue in the UK. The challenge rested on assumptions spiralling from the Good Friday Agreement peace accords that Northern Ireland's constitutional arrangements could only be changed with the consent of its residents.
Olofs bacon might yet be saved. It was always just a consultative referendum you cnuts didnt believe old Glory.
You might as well have done since you've just empowered the awful bastards. if remain had won then the one trick pony that is ukip would have no mandate to keep pushing for an exit from the EU and would no longer have a purpose. Now we're stuck with either leaving the EU, or the prospect of another tory or god forbid a ukip government. The only way we can hope for a labour government now is for the tories to have the guts to trigger article 50, and for it to go horrendously wrong. Until then, I'm stuck being treated like a disposable object who's only purpose is to provide competition for a job and bring wages down and profits up. yaaaaaaaaaaaay. Thanks Brexit.
This High Court ruling is an attack on democracy ........ thank heavens How dare they say our elected representatives should have a role in scrutinising and approving the basis for article 50. That's patently undemocratic. Theresa May should do just what she likes.
Labour wont get in for another 10-15 years,only real loonies would ever vote for Corbin,they will get smashed at the next election,with that crank in charge.
