    He probably thinks he would have won one if it wasn't for those nasty bone spurs.

    If I told you I loved my wife,you'd laugh.
    If I told you I knew what I was doing ,you'd laugh.
    If I told you my daddy gave me $400 million dollars and I blew it,you'd laugh.
    If I told you I was President of the USA, you'd shoot yourself!

    Boris Johnson's legacy: every single joke about an Englishman, an Irishman and a Scotsman will end in the exact same punchline - the Irishman and the Scotsman saying "Shut up, you got duped by a ****ing bus"

    Trump blaming Democrats for spreading rumour that his Miami "hotel" has bedbugs. You've just got to laugh!.....and I thought he only blamed Obama for everything.

    Probably not the only bugs, given he's suggested the next G7 meeting take place there...

    ...what was that the Leavers were saying about the importance of parliamentary sovereignty?

    Parliament have had 3 years to implement the result of the referendum and failed. Imagine if the Scots had voted for independence and Westminster had blocked it for 3 years? There would be outrage in Scotland. Parliament have had their chance and blown it. Something has to give. The Brexit process is more damaging than Brexit will ever be.

    Most of the opposition came from Johnson´s own party, including himself. He betrayed the country by failing to support Mrs May´s deal. So he deserves no support at all.

    He opposed it on every occasion bar one. Johnson deserves nada. He is so bad, he makes Mrs May look brilliant.

    No one makes May look brilliant, she was dire. Johnson will be the fall-guy for Brexit, it will end his political career.

    All of this Brexit bullshit is damaging the British economy more than Brexit ever will. Johnson is going to have to call an election on or after 6th October to get his no deal through (Parliament is automatically dissolved for 25 days prior to an election). What the remainers should be doing is taking to the EU and getting an agreement that if they win the election the UK is re-admitted on the same T's and C's. It amazes me no one is doing this.

    I doubt it's legal. Never stopped the Brexitards, of course.

    The BS is damaging, but nowhere near as much as a No deal exit will be.

    Calling an election is legal. Suspending Parliament before a Queens speech is normal. John Major suspended Parliament fo 6 weeks before the 97 election to avoid 'cash for questions' being raised in Parliament/

    So some say, others disagree. Personally I think the result of the referendum needs to be honoured with a deal, or no deal if Parliament can't agree then go from there. If the remainers can get an agreement to rejoin, and win an election, not much will change.

    Using another example of Tory corruption doesn't make this any less corrupt, but I wasn't questioning the legality suspending parliament.
    The Queen should agree to it and give him a day. Boris is full of **** and he's not even trying to hide it any more.
