For what it’s worth, I can barely get a signal on the Glasgow-Edinburgh line, so can fully believe that phone service on a train to Skye isn’t always reliable. You can talk about what you want. I can also comment on whataboutery. -5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have zero chance of getting a trade deal through Congress outside the EU unless they have leeway to make concessions on American agri-food imports, whoever wins the US election. Pork barrel politics isn't just a metaphor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pork barrel politics isn't just a metaphor. A trade deal which is more about flag-waving bullshit then any real benefit to the UK economy - a 0.16% boost to growth at the expense of safe food.It's fucking nonsense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our leverage is hugely diminished outside the EU. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted October 13, 2020 Author Share Posted October 13, 2020 This is genuinely a fucking scandal. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/dominic-cummings-council-tax-durham-property-planning-permission-b1016505.html Dominic Cummings and his family are liable for council tax on two properties built at his family’s farm in the northeast of England, but backdated charges that reportedly could have amounted to tens of thousands of pounds will not apply. Officials have concluded that charges for the buildings, on the outskirts of Durham, should start from this month rather than from when both properties were built, without planning permission. The Northern Echo, which first reported the story, said council tax would be paid on Mr Cummings’ band A cottage, and his sister’s band C family home from 4 October. The paper claimed the amount written off could total up to £50,000. The Valuation Office Agency refused to comment on individual cases when approached by The Independent. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim McLean's Ghost Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 (edited) Ponsonby on STV trying to get Ferrier to quit is quite hilarious. Trying to say that it is for sure she is going to face a by-election. She hasn't been convicted of a crime (and certainly not one that will have a sentence of over a year) and no other MP who has broken lockdown rules has been suspended from parliament, and not for the required large number of days that would be required for the recall process to begin. edit: it would be bad for democracy if the SNP were able to force out an MP for a minor infraction as it would be another tool that parties could use to hold over rebel mps. Vote with us or we reveal your minor offence to the Speaker and get you chucked out of parliament.

I'd imagine her parliamentary colleagues and staff will expect her knowingly putting them in danger to be treated far more seriously than fiddling expenses. Ten days suspension and there's an recall vote requiring 10% of her constituents to approve. She hasn't got the blind loyalty in Rutherglen that the freeloading shyster Ian Paisley Jr had in North Antrim. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
