I wouldn't bet on the Supreme Court throwing out the appeal. Brace yourself for another "appalling vista" moment. If the judgement sticks, though, things are going to get very interesting. Fingers crossed for a massive kick up the fundament for these arrogant Tory bastards.

And wasn't it wonderful to see Sajid Javid making a complete twat of himself on Question Time over the court ruling and brexit. A bloke who shouldn't even be in charge of a chippie.

"wasn't it wonderful to see Sajid Javid making a complete twat of himself on Question Time over the court ruling and brexit"
And wasn't it heart-warming to see the contemptuous response from the audience, especially about the Orgreve fit-up - in Luton, of all places!!

The Orgreave decision is a bloody scandal. Ninety-five people dragged through the courts on jumped-up evidence after a conflict for which the Prime Minister had ordered, in advance, the police to behave like soldiers. Organised police violence in order to teach the miners a lesson. Lies, perjury and more lies, a deliberate attempt by the Tories to demonise trade unionists. Not in the public interest? I should bloody coco. Not in the Tories' interests more like, and definitely not in the interests of Thatcher's "legacy."

The Brexiters are having a duck fit about the high court ruling. They seem now to dismiss the rule of law within the country, declaring the judiciary "Enemies of the People" (like a certain bunch did in the 1930's) which in itself is dangerous if not outright stupid. Should we ignore all judgements from the courts, or just the ones we don't like? Some folk will have a whale of a time with that.

As the judgement reinforces parliamentary sovereignty, something our Brexiter friends seems very keen on, the display of swivel-eyed hypocrisy from them as they cough and splutter as they now wish to deny any parliamentary scrutiny over a process instigated through a referendum that was only ever advisory.

The mob is baying.

The dozy buggers voted for 'Sovreignty', but they hadn't a clue what they were voting for.

I'll risk my post being deleted, by quoting The Muskets - "Thick Cunts"!

Just to correct myself, 95 pickets were charged with riot or unlawful assembly. Not all of them were actually dragged through the courts, as I said before.

Maybe it's me that misunderstood the Muskets' 'TC', Steve. 😎

LOL!
He's also said it in full when we were discussing 'certain persons' in the pub!

I can't say I trust any politicians; I live in a town famous for corruption and machine politics. Every four years the wannabees come by and indulge in the fantasy that they care about us, give a $#@! about us, will do things to make things better, etc. You have to kick them out of the way to get through the parking lot. Being named a battleground state isn't helping. As for myself, I figure if Hillary wins, we'll probably get the sameold sameold. If Donald wins, we'll get something like Mussolini, on a good day, at least.

I wouldn't trust the UK parliament or the House of Lords with the keys of my work van!

Did Labour MP's behave in a parliamentary fashion when instigating their coup against Mr Corbyn?.....did they fuck.

The people deserve better than these self obsessed fools, they are in parliament to engineer a lucrative career, here and in Europe.

Mrs May is the prime minister of the UK, and as such she and her team should mould the type of deal which they think will be of most value to the UK.   The careerists should be kept away from important decisions.

Well thanks for raising the intellectual tone of the debate to new heights, akenaton.
