Stasis and stagnation? 

Always best to double up on one's pant-wetting and breek-pishing, eh?

Aren't you the fucking moron that moans like f**k about people being rude and insulting?

[Baxter Parp]

Maybe need a third one.

I honestly wouldn't bother - I no longer do.

[Granny Danger]

I assume there will be a vote on the timetable at the start of the debate?

I’ll regularly take the piss out of what people say. But I try not to just call people “fcking morons” etc. Although sometimes, usually in response to prime examples of arseholery,  I can let myself down.

Tories want to ram through legislation in three days.
Yeah let’s not give the Bill the scrutiny it deserves so we can meet Johnson’s timetable.
 

And being backed by mouthpieces in the BBC and Goebbels-like polling agencies - sick and tired of some really crap polls being stated as facts and not what they are.

Stig Abel reviewing the papers on Sky News has just opined that no one, from outside Northern Ireland, gives a damn about Northern Ireland.

I can think of another country within the Union where the same could be said.

I think that some of the questions being asked and the responses need to be highlighted.

“Do you think it’s a good deal?”  Majority - no.

“Do you think MPs should approve it?”  “Slight majority - yes.

These responses add nothing to the debate.

They’re giving the people what they want.

You’re average Englishman doesn’t care what’s in the bill. They want out the EU at any cost.

 

 

They really have become cultists (yes, I spelled that correctly) , believing in something completely unjustifiable to an extreme extent.

Is the correct answer "Wales"?

[Granny Danger]

Imagine the press and public reaction if a Labour Government was trying to introduce a far reaching and complex piece of legislation that was 110 pages long (with a further 125 pages of explanatory notes), that there had been no economic impact study for and that they wanted through Parliament in three days.

MPs supporting this timetable are abdicating their duties.

That none of the ERG have concluded that the easiest way to have their brexit is to vote for English/Welsh exit from the UK leaving them as non EU members is mad. It would in their view leave them entirely outside the EU and solve their problem instantly.

You mean that region just west of Cheshire?

Even the Welsh don't care about them.

tbf lots of Labour Party policies would fail in lots of economic impact studies. But they should nevertheless  be able to enact the policies they fight and win an election on. No matter what most academics - maybe with an axe to grind - "prove"

In the same manner as MPs who rejected it before it was even published?

I would hope that MPs would reject all legislation that hasn't had an economic impact study without them feeling the need to waste time trawling through it.

There is no deal better than the one we have at present, and I invite you to disprove that statement - facts preferred to overheated rhetoric please.

Difference being, those policies can be reversed if they turn out to be a glaring economic failure. If this Brexit legislation turns out to be a glaring economic failure (which we all know it will be, including brexiteers with the heads buried in the sand), the damage will be permanent.
