Peoples' Vote March Saturday 20th October

Liberals ? The killjoy party ! The Liverpool Cllr spoke to the local Echo saying that " he was pleased that the Coca Cola truck won't be coming to Liverpool "---- due to childhood obesity !!
The truck has called for 6 years and for the past 3 there's been a debate on whether or not it continues.
Bah Humbug to the Lib Dems !!

by LP I meant Labour Party of course

Jo Johnson resigns as transport minister and calls for new Brexit referendum

news.sky.com/story/jo-johnson-resigns-as-transport-minister-over-incoherent-brexit-11549402

Boris may be bonkers but his brother talks a lot of sense.

Can someone explain what the backstop business is all about please?

Jo Johnson is just another Eton educated self serving entitled privileged waste of space. Have you already forgotten the fiasco of the Toby Young affair when JJwas Universities Minister, had a well paid job going on one of his quangos, gave it to his mate TY without following any due process or due diligence? TY then had to resign when his utterly disgusting series of sexist tweets were revealed. TY deleted about 30000 tweets when it all blew up but sadly for him the worst had been screenshotted. He (JJ)was then moved by TM to Transport ( he should have been sacked - more fool her) where of course he has shone (not) And across the Media this evening has been dad Stanley and sister Rachel- why? That’s JJs judgement for you and how he’s prepared to use his political power. Don’t be fooled - he only gives a damn about what’s in it for him.

Jo Johnson will be sure of a higher position than transport if they get rid of T.May

I haven't been an inverted snob / class warrior for years Maryeliza so the education/class of any MP does not concern me as I look past the bigotry that surrounds it.

Do you believe our MP's should be from only one educated / class section of the population ?

Eton educated men are by definition totally out of touch with the lives of the overwhelming majority of the population

And are overrepresented in the higher echelons of the Conservative party.And JJ is such a little sheltered boy that his daddy and his sister have to be all over the media supporting him - WTAF?

Here's the Cabinet (presumably what one would term the higher echelons - I can't find one who attended Eton, but you may find one maryeliza.

sorry, link:

I deliberately didn’t say Cabinet Jal

Maryeliza

I'll ask again

" Do you believe our MP's should be from only one educated / class section of the population ?"

I think it's changed somewhat since Cameron's day

POGs of course I don’t believe that - there you go as usual making throughly ridiculous inferences. There are far too many public school educated men in politics and the influence of Eton in particular has helped shape the sorry state of British political life, BJ, JJ, DC, JRM for starters. At least by having more women we reduce the old Etonians

Cameron’s day was 2 years ago - the influence is still there

You posted:-

" Eton educated men are by definition totally out of touch with the lives of the overwhelming majority of the population. "

Your tone/rhetoric and statement leads to the obvious conclusion if you feel because somebody is privileged , Eton educated they are a waste of space so it was a perfectly fair question to ask. Making such a sweeping statement concerning an MP there was a natural question to be asked where you stood on them serving as MP's.

As for my question being a ' ridiculous inference ' I can only make an ' inference ' based on the evidence and reasoning by reading what you state and you made your opinion very clear or I wouldn't have asked.

Are you a staunch Brexit supporter maryeliza? Sorry, but I can't remember, but could that be why you have such an aversion to Jo Johnson?

Jo Johnson is a staunch Remainer and I think that he would like to see us have another in or out referendum.

I think Jo Johnson is quite different from his publicity-seeking brother.
He really cannot help which schools he attended when he was young.

Voters in every Labour area now support a Final Say referendum on the Brexit outcome, new research shows, piling fresh pressure on Jeremy Corbyn to back the idea.

The huge survey also found that a majority of Labour supporters in the Westminster seats the party holds back staying in the EU – despite claims that traditional supporters are still pro-Brexit.

It is clear that May’s deal would weaken the nation. No deal would be total disaster. Brexit was a false dream, sold by shysters making phoney promises. As smoke clears from the battlefield it is entirely democratic to seek a fresh vote, whether from the electorate, now it can see the shape of their proposed future, or in Parliament.
