A truly shocking indictment of the Mother of all Parliaments.
Brought about directly by the rogue speaker and those that cannot accept the referendum result

Comres poll findings.
The poll showed that Remain voters were fed up with MPs, with 73 percent of them saying Parliament is in desperate need of reform, compared to 85 percent of Leavers.
The results also show that 73 percent of all voters believe that Parliament does not attract the brightest and best, and that as an institution it puts political point-scoring above the interests of the country.

“To say that Parliament is in desperate need of an overhaul is a gross understatement,” said ComRes’s chairman Andrew Hawkins.


In a boost to Boris Johnson, 59 percent agreed there should be an election if the Labour/Remainer “surrender bill” to force another extension of EU membership succeeds.
In the week that John Bercow announced he is to step down as Speaker, the findings are a damning indictment of his decade-long tenure and confirm that the divide between Parliament and the people is at crisis point.

It follows a shambolic end to Parliament which saw anti-Brexit MPs singing songs and waving placards in the chamber.

Last week, BBC Question Time audience member Charlie Neil received an ovation when he told panellists: “You’ve had three years and three months, and you’ve done nothing but argue among yourselves like little kids.

“You’ve got no respect for each other and you’ve got no respect for the British people. Just go away.”

ComRes’s Mr Hawkins said that the disillusionment was sparked by Parliament’s failure to deal with those trying the thwart the 2016 Brexit result.

Remainiacs would happily trash democracy rather than accept the very clear fact that they lost the referedum.

Me too
It seems a lost opportunity to waste such perpetual idiocy
Otherwise I agree totally with the Mod who advised that we "treat it like a fart"
Occasionally I like to reprimand my fart when it has been a particularly bad one

One for the joke thread
Trump was attending a Royal dinner at Buck House when Madge lets off a skirt-lifter of a fart
A gentleman a few seats down the table stood up hurriedly, apologised profusely and quickly walked out of the room
Trump whispered (loudly) to his neighbour, "What's with him - she dropped it?"
He was told, on occasions such as this, a gentleman always takes responsibility for such mishaps".
Five minutes later Madge drops another one.
Trump stands up and says, "It's OK ma-am - this one's on me"

I did not accuse Fiona Onasanya of criminality, it was the Crown Prosecution Service that brought the prosecution. Onasanya was found guilty on 19 December 2018 of perverting the course of justice for lying to police to avoid being prosecuted for speeding. She unsuccessfully sought to secure permission to appeal the conviction. Her expulsion from the Labour Party, effective in December 2018, was announced in January 2019. On 29 January 2019 she was sentenced to three months in prison. She was removed from office on 1 May 2019 after a successful recall petition, automatically triggered in cases of a custodial sentence of a year or less, under the Recall of MPs Act 2015, prompting a by-election, making her the first MP to lose their seat through this process.
On 12 March 2019, Onasanya voted against the Government's Brexit withdrawal agreement, leading to its defeat in the second "meaningful vote". This was reported to be her first vote in the House of Commons since her release from prison and the first occasion that a MP voted while wearing an electronic tag

I don't know how to be plainer, Jim. First, he can't use this as a hate propaganda site because if nobody looks at it it isn't very good propaganda. I'm guessing that no more than three or four people here ever read his posts. I'm not one of them any more. Now let's predict what will happen if:

Nobody reads his posts

Nobody mentions him

Nobody falls into the trap of seeming to be responding to any point in his posts

Nobody mentions the mods in the context of his posts

Nobody falls into the trap of responding to his occasional "seemingly-reasonable" posts (he always reverts to type within minutes).

See what I did at 03.29. I followed his post as quickly as I could with something entirely unconnected. That's the way to show him that we are blanking him. In the short term he'll become even more shrill, even more neurotic, even more insulting and even more irrational than he is now. Let it all sail on by. One of two things will then happen: he'll get sick of talking to himself and evaporate away, or the mods will see how well we've isolated him and strike him out. It's all about outcomes, Jim, outcomes.

This will be followed by a silly ranting post from him. Well, now that I've said that, it might not happen. But this is the very last time I'm going to refer to him in any way at all. Let him stew, Jim. His idiocy is actually on display to very few people, and if you let it rile you then it makes you a sucker. I only said "if" there, note. I've tried, dammit, I've tried. On this topic, it's over and out from me.

Classic argumentum ad hominem

It is all you remainiacs have to fight with!

Here again for your delectation and delight are some self evident truths, namely we brexiteers won the referendum and expect to see it delivered.
Leave         17,410,742         51.89%
Remain         16,141,241         48.11%

51.89 TRUMPs 48.11 Only one vote more is required in a democracy.

After all Fiona Onasanya, the former jailbird, wearing an ankle tag, voted against a No Deal Brexit, which lost by one vote. Her vote.’
Should that vote be retaken, did she breach her curfew by voting, should we let the people decide?

since WW2 there has been a general consensus in the west to unite, to make treaties and attempt to keep the peace and keep the trade flowing, for growth and prosperity - for the already wealthy, obviously. this capitalist version of 'progress' allows obscenities like grinding poverty in the south, like the proxy wars we fight in poor countries, like the gross exploitation in poor countries to provide us with the shit we feel we need to validate our existence. and of course w must spend countless trillions of dollars on weapons of war and expand the reach of the (mostly us) military. we spend far more weapons than we need to solve all the problems of health, education and security for everyone on the planet. (this is all one with the climate emergency we now face as the above has moved on to a destruction of the planet led by crazed neo liberal and fascist leaders but that is probably an argument for another thread)

my old man read the daily mail for maybe 75 years til he died at 93 a couple of years back. it rotted his mind. he used to cut pictures out of, say diane abbott getting out of a car, cherie blair looking a mess or harriet harman stealing our taxes to show us. he couldn't understand why we weren't impressed, as all his family were of a far more positive/feminist/green/left mindset. anyway, like many of us he was completely sucked into this adversarial, PMQs interpretation of politics where a politician's appearance meant everything - all explained for him through the lens of the daily mail. he was an old soldier who never fought in the war but kept an abiding distrust of foreigners and was an instinctive brexiteer. of course, he voted to leave though lied to his family about where none of his 6 grandkids had any time for that shit as they are surrounded by friends and partners from many parts of the world. they are also aware of the importance of unity and peace and the environment as the only really important things in these dangerous times. 'our house is on fire but most of us aren't bothered' - someone else will fix it.

(to attempt to return to the point) here in the uk the european question has split the tories since thatcher times. occasionally grubby little fascists like farage and various bnp/edl/nationalist groups try to divide us and make the situation worse. cameron's crime (and blair too as Iain says above) was to fail to deal with these depressing messages from the far right other than by trying to appease them with a referendum. our politicians have consistently apologised for immigration rather than celebrated it; they have supported war rather than fought for peace; they have been intensely comfortable with the very wealthy rather than pursue equality; they have messed about (eg PFI) with our precious public services and are now actively trashing them. to add insult to injury when the banks crashed they were bailed out with public money. by - ffs- a labour government.

we are where we are now - in a mess. and really the petty squabbles about brexit - whose fault it is? - are really silly and the sort of thing that would have exercised my dad if he wasn't reading about the vegetables on corbyn's allotment or whether megan markle was killing the royal family. my opinion is that our faults on a larger scale i went on about above are what has caused brexit - that and our leaders complete failure to offer a more positive vision for our country and the planet.

while we can all see that johnson/corbyn/trump/gove is a dick. does it really matter? (though mogg/IDS/farage are on a different level of hideousness altogether) - shouldn't we be looking away from this horror show to a more interesting, hopeful and colourful future. (with greta thunberg, caroline lucas, chris packham, alexandria orcasia-cortez, naomi klein etc) it's going to be a hard fight but we may have a chance if us old gits could manage to die off before we have finished our job of trashing the planet entirely.

sorry for going on - i just woke up this morning read some naomi klein and thought - i've been getting really bored and pissed off with the whole brexit thing but it doesn't really matter much - far more important to look at the poverty in this country and everywhere and fight climate change - green new deal is the only way, innit?

I've taken to watching late night Sky News programmes lately and I watched an interesting debate on Brexit last night which was chaired by the the historian on Question time

People are now openly lying about everything
So many people seem to be ignoring the dangerous use which is being made of Populism which is swinging Britain further and further into the arms of the Extreme right
Not one speaker dealt with the rise of racism because of its use in the election - even the decent ones are talking about the paper thin majority ad 'democratic', which it most certainly was not
One twat claimed the referendum a "massive majority in favour of leaving" hen it was a paper-thin anomaly which even Farage never expected - even the decent members of the debate didn't challenge him
What's happening to Britain - isn't it enough that the politicians are the laughing stock of the Planet without the rest becoming so ?

A number of the audience appeared a bit fed up with Brainless Boris's idiocy, but there was not a single voice in favour of what the Government were doing
Fiona Bruce (much better than Dimbleby) won my heart forever when, after one questioner trying his best to get an answer from the Brexiteer businessman about Brainless Boris's criminal behaviour, she said - "Leave it at that - you're not going to get anything from him - take it from me"
The two Brexers were humiliated by the other speakers hands down - wonderful stuff

Mr Hastings posts but an opinion with zero facts to back up his assertions(like someone else who posts with monotonous regularity here)

Interesting finding in the Belfast court case trying to scupper brexit.

    “Neither NIA 1998 nor the international treaty scheduled to the Belfast Agreement (or, for that matter, the Agreement itself) has the effect in law of requiring the continued membership of the EU on the part of the UK. In his judgement Lord Justice McCloskey thoroughly slapped down the spurious arguments that the Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement hinges on membership of the European Union

    The Supreme Court was alert to this in Miller: Furthermore, none of the sources mentioned subjects the EU 27 to conclude an Article 50 Withdrawal Agreement in any particular terms.”

    “Once again, neither the Belfast Agreement nor this suite of provisions was predicated on the basis that UK membership of the EU would continue forever. Neither of them can be construed as requiring a customs Union or continued regulatory alignment. More fundamentally, there is no sufficient evidential foundation for the incompatibility assert"ed. There is no suggestion that the incompatibility has already materialised”..............
" Considered in their totality they point inexorably to the conclusion that these cases trespass upon the prohibited domain of the non-justiciable."

That finding has left egg on more than a few faces.

One of the best, and most unexpected analyses of Brexit I heave come across so far
Cor blimey - you could’a knocked me dahn wiv a fevver

Irish Times, this morning

HISTORIAN SAYS BREXIT BEING DRIVEN BY A ‘CRAZY NOSTALGIA’ FOR THE PAST
Max Hastings says those keen to exit E.U. need to realise that Britain is no longer important
Ronan McGreevy

Max Hastings, a former newspaper editor and now a historian, accused Boris Johnson and his government of being ‘completely indifferent’ to the fate of Northern Ireland in the Brexit debate..
Britain is not an important country any more and Brexit is being driven by an “almost crazy nostalgia” for the past, the historian Max Hastings has said.
Mr Hastings, who specialises in military history, said Brexiteers were leading “a dash for the past” for Britain in the belief that the country was somehow better before.
“They think that they can rebuild the Britain of the past and that will be great for Britain. I don’t share that view at all,” he said.
“Britain is not an important country any more and we are going to find it difficult. I never suffer from nostalgia. I never kidded myself that it was better to live in the second World War or to live in the time of Downton Abbey. ”
Mr Hastings is a former editor of The Daily Telegraph newspaper and was Boris Johnson’s editor when the now British prime minister was its Brussels correspondent. He said his former newspaper, which supports Mr Johnson, and others in the Brexit-backing press have allowed their papers to act “recklessly and irresponsibly” when it comes to the issue of the UK leaving the EU.
He told RTÉ’s Today with Seán O’Rourke programme that he had not changed his view that Mr Johnson was “wholly unfit” to be prime minister.

‘Falsehoods’
“Boris Johnson is peddling a budget of falsehoods and unfulfillable promises which I fear will lead us into terrible trouble,” Mr Hastings added.
“I keep hoping for the sake of our poor country that things would turn out better than I feared they would, but so far there is not much evidence of it.”
In his early days as a reporter, Mr Hastings was based as a correspondent in Northern Ireland.
He accused Mr Johnson and his government of being “completely indifferent” to the fate of Northern Ireland and the British government’s policy towards the North is being driven by “sheer insouciance and carelessness”.

It is nice to see our proposed 35 billion contribution being put to good use. In Poland The retirement age has been brought back to 65 years of age, for men and 60 years, of age, for women. The previous government had introduced a phased increase of the retirement age to 67 years by 2020 for men and by 2040 for women.
Meanwhile back in Blighty we have the lowest pension in Europe and work the longest to get it

IN 2017 Britain was the second largest contributor to the EU and Poland the largest beneficiary(by a country mile)Source

The above is even more blatant misuse of funds than the CAP.

On the whole, the practice gets us nowhere. Just a thought.

The Belfast High Court dismisses no-deal Brexit challenge.

Miller's case fails because Parliament demonstrates it can act quickly when minded too.Hence totally undermining the argument that Parliament needed more time(as if 3 years is not long enough.) e.g. The speed last week with which a bill was passed to cripple the freedom of action of the PM.

I do enjoy seeing factual content totally rebutting your asinine arguments labelled as trolling.I see you call all brexiteers racists as well. You all really need to learn the correct meanings of words and expand your vocabularies beyond the gutter.
When all you can produce is nonstop criticisms and insults it is clear you have no sensible arguments.You know what they say:You are on target when the flak gets thickest! For the last three years you and your ilk have faithfully followed the game plan designed by Goebbels. BUT! We can all see through it. No matter how much noise you make, or how many posts you manage to get deleted, you are a minority and you lost the referendum. Yet you continue, in your arrogance, to act as though you won.
I still await the day you justify your insults and manage to refute my arguments.

"is there a policy on this thread just to ignore the troll mouthpiece? "
A large part of the country have been shown to be racist Al - between a quarter and a third of them
You, like Johnson, Moogie and Gove, are refusing to respond what is actually happening and are hiding behind the people to help you ignore the mess Britain is now in and likely to be in deeper and for a long time
You dismiss the facts as just facts - unimportant
I really did think better of you

Do you believe that East Europeans are lawless then, Al? Dead simple question. Nothing to do with what people have said or where anyone lives. A simple yes or no will suffice.

Okay - lets just leave it - theres a bloke in manchester who thinks I'm a racist, cos I listen to my old school friends and he lives at the other side of the country and doesn't give a shit about what they have to say.

he knows better what going on - even though he's never been there - never talked to any of the people involved.

not interested.

Reallly like allthe remainers. just totally disinterested and disbelieving of everything a large part of the population are saying.

Communication is not going to happen. let's accept the fact.

Lucky we still have the vote.

”Hi guys, just for reference, is there a policy on this thread just to ignore the troll mouthpiece? Pity this forum does not have a block/ignore feature by which its posts won't show up under our log ins. Maybe something for the tech experts to look at?”

Yes SPB, there is - it's set out in ‘FAQ’ under ‘Etiquette and Advice - Dealing with Flamers and Trolls’...I’m not c&p-ing it here as it's fairly lengthy, but it’s easy to look up.

Also, we’re not supposed to discuss each other, or a thread of itself.

Most of us have adopted a policy of ignoring the resident troll, it’s a pity the remaining two or three who steadfastly continue to invite his nonsense don’t do the same.

Ignore the goose-stepping clown - the Mods have described him as a troll and told us to do so ("like a fart", as one put it so eloquently)
Beyond me why he has to be tolerated at all after five years of his shit, but "Mod moves in a mysterious way" as they say
