Brexit and power to the people

Than goodness somebody believes in them. I think they have difficulty sometimes in believing why they are there and what they will be able to achieve themselves. It's a bit like Alice they have to believe at least one impossible thing everyday.

I forgot to mention also the ghastly Emily Thornberry and the snivelling bunch of SNPs. They just want to derail Brexit. Well Brexit is going to happen and I have faith in the PM and her team.

I saw the interview too. I wouldn't call it 'putting them in their place'. It was bluster and hot air. What's their place anyway? They're democratically elected MPs in parliament. They have a right to know what's going on and have some input.

What do you think the government is hiding, magpie? Why wouldn't they want to be more transparent? Would it have anything to do with not guaranteeing workers rights, etc?

Did he?

Commentators I saw said he had nothing new to say.

Gone quiet on here no mention of David Davis putting Clegg, Starmer, Miliband and a few others in their place.

After Brexit the anti-immigration will be moaning about the rest if the world coming here. That's if there's jobs to come to..

Did you watch the Victorian Slum tonight?
It was Brexit 110 years earlier. Foreigners coming in taking our jobs and houses.

Wales has nice Italian ones too - even in shopping malls now.

Quite a lot of them up here, Jalima. There's even an American one in Seaham.
Most are Italian in the seaside towns.

ps I wish we had one of those, sounds lovely
but fattening

Because I thought all the Tories would be in there, as they don't have a Conservative Club for cheap beer. He met the Tories in an ice cream parlour.

There was never ever any doubt that those promises were fraudulent and broke British Law - so glad the CPS agrees.

It is illegal under the 1983 Representation of the People Act to use "any fraudulent device or contrivance" to have an "undue influence" on voters.

He was on the Today programme on Radio 4 this morning, defending the independence of the judiciary and the sovereignty of Parliament.

Could this be another court case for Brexiteers?
Keir Starmer used to be the DPP. I wonder if he will be asked for his view.

And then this report comes out today. I think some of us knew it, but it's good to have it confirmed that the Tories set out to destroy the working class.

Obviously they did not realise what would happen to the workers once the jobs had gone.

I thought he came close to inciting riot yesterday. It wouldnt take much to encourage a particular element

Did you hear Farage having to admit to Gina Miller that the referendum vote was only advisory?

Sorry, that was to Jalima, not you, daphne.

Yes, I agree. Michael Sheen has obviously thought very carefully about things, more than a lot of those who commented on the video.
Have you heard that Clinton has been cleared of any illegal stuff in the latest lot of emails. Of course, Trump says it shows it's rigged. Hopefully people will see through that.

Because I thought all the Tories would be in there, as they don't have a Conservative Club for cheap beer. He met the Tories in an ice cream parlour.

Talking of Trump, Sheen said 'what he has tapped into is still there'. Very very true! That's what I meant on the other thread about the voters' motivation still being there, even if UKIP implodes. Love Sheen's description of UKIP as 'a bunch of monkeys'.

From what I can understand, Sheen talks sense. I think it's very sad, because I really don't think people from places like Port Talbot, the North East, Stoke or any of the other 'abandoned' places are going to benefit at all.

I would be surprised if everyone in our conservative club voted Tory.

After all, the beer is a lot cheaper in there.

Why would you be surprised that only 2 people in the RBL club voted Tory?

Try watching this, daphne, if you haven't seen it before.

It's Owen Jones talking to Michael Sheen about why people voted Brexit. It could be similar in the North East.
Although people in South Shields might have voted Brexit, they still identify as Labour. I was surprised in the British Legion Club that only two others admitted to voting Tory.

ddill I didn't put on the link with any serious intent, just found it amusing. - mildly

I wasn't actually asking you a question, POGS. My response which you quote was to being asked the same question over and over again.

In my post of 17.25 I was merely explaining why I'd said your post was nonsensical. Didn't really expect a reply...
