Hoinestly, Our Brannch Chair and I were just rubbishing the idea that the BBC were remain-biased when they wheeled that specimen out as an example of the Voice of Leave. Breeks were almost pished. In fairness, Stoke, when we visited last year, seemed to have a higher than average number of people where someone in their family knew someone in their family. Weird place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The finest constitutional law minds in the country had no idea what way this would go. The Inner House and High Court decisions on justiciability couldn't have been further apart, and these are six of the most senior judges in the country. 42 minutes ago, Detournement said: It's not the first time the government has lost in court and their advice has been wrong.

Yup, and lost primary legislation in Salvesen v Riddell, and lost on all but one ground in the Brexit bill case. Governments lose in court from time to time, it's not automatically a bad thing. That said... Until very recently it would have been a nailed-on resignation if a Prime Minister who had prorogued parliament was routed in court. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the possibility of a remain coalition in a post 31/10 election could be enough to sway them to give us two more months. All good analysis, but I'm not sure about this bit. Noises from Europe are that they want us gone now. They see us as implacably divided and even if we did somehow revoke A50, it would just be a matter of time before the bampots took control again. They want a deal, so they'll play and delay for that, but a Remain government isn't necessarily something they'd be prepared to wait for. They also want it over because the uncertainty is bad for business and is distracting them from real problems. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
