Then as is usual on this subject, you would be wrong.
An indefatigable point, unless your audience has ever been to primary school.
By the sounds coming out of pfeffel, i’d say the thick fool never made it that far.
That said, he’s learning eugenics boys hate speech pretty quick. Born for it no doubt.
So the useless fuckwitts have been back in Parliament a whole week and what has their “reclaiming of democracy” achieved?
Although the prospect of Abbott at the dispatch box has the potential to be amusing

Perhaps sir might care to qualify any of his remarks.
At some point in the distant future perhaps!
Sounds like Number 10 is keeping its cards close to its chest.
Would you blame them?
Do you reckon there’s a cunning plan then?
Rather than the obvious picture of Baldrick… here is a moment of more comic joy… is there anything better than a veg/penis gag?

Yup. There are a couple of mechanisms that could be used. John Major mentioned the Order of Council, which allows legislation to be suspended by just the Privy Council.
There is also a strong argument to be made for this entire piece of legislation being unconstitutional. The Hilary Benn Begging Bill was drafted and passed by the opposition. Who is scrutinising them, exactly? Parliament is there for the government to create laws which are scrutinised and amended by the opposition.
This is an opposition creating law beholden to no-one but their constituents, who they refuse to face.
Surely May’s deals’ problem was open ended backstop.
Boris has given EU a choice his/no deal OR fudge a limit on the old backstop.
Win:Win
And tbh it only needs them to believe they have no choice.
Might work.
The ducks are in a row now. There is a public negotiation on the table. It has the support of the DUP, the chief blocker beforehand.
On first reading, the solution to backstop seems very reasonable, time-limited and involving the creation of a separate all Ireland trading zone, meaning there is a framework for either a united Ireland or a permanent trading arrangement thereafter.
Nicked from the Guardian
• Respecting the Belfast/Good Friday agreement.
• A commitment to longstanding areas of UK-Ireland collaboration.
• Creating an all-island regulatory zone on the island of Ireland, covering all goods including agri-food.
• Giving the Northern Ireland executive and assembly the opportunity to endorse the new regulatory arrangements before they enter into force.
• Northern Ireland will be fully part of the UK customs territory, not
the EU customs union, after the end of the transition period.
I’ve posted before about eugenics boy, even included his own paper confirming it.
If you haven’t noticed the deliberate language and why it’s used, where you been?
This entire article is predicated on October 1st speculation.
I think it’s rather superceded by events on October 2nd.
Events.
A deals been struck?
Means nothing otherwise.
Doesn’t matter. It isn’t what has been proposed today, at least not until the end of the transition period.
My bet is Labour will trash the proposal because it’s not their proposal
Libs will trash the proposal because it is not remain
Greens ditto
SNP because it is not Indy ref 2
The EU are already sounding the jungle drums prior to saying “Non”
This is an impossible situation - the UK are not (and should not for that matter) compromise their single market by sticking an unlimited unilaterally determined border down the North Sea. The EU have stated they want an all Ireland economy AND retain there single market integrity - that can only happen:
If we agree the shit deal (it’s dead)
We remain
Unification in Ireland
I cannot believe that the EU and Ireland just expect us to roll over and say let’s call it off, or are they seriously gambling everything in that?
I wonder if this proposal will be put to a vote in Parliament - if they get it through that, it is more ammo for Boris to say, look I can get this done if you say yes
The Guardian is reporting that Barnier has given a scathing assessment, describing the arrangements as “a trap”.
Like the backstop wasn’t…
they know that a FTA is going to take much longer because every country has to agree. I wonder what they demands will be?
France - full unrestricted access to our fishing grounds
Germany - all of the financial services markets
Poland - free movement for their people
Greece - get rid of our debt
Italy - get rid of our migrants
Spain - give us Gibraltar
It will never happen - there will be a series of mini FTAs
